Hello everyone, welcome to my blog again.
Earlier today an issue of skill and how it affects opportunity was talked about in my office.
So I'll be sharing my view .
Seeking for opportunities
In the quest for livelihood we all spend lot of time praying and seeking for opportunities.maybe moving from a lower paying job to a more better one.(not a bad one)
And some times we are fortunate to get at a very good place,maybe an email with an employment offer 😊. But then how prepared are we.Most time we lack needed skills to probably grab opportunity that may come our way
So then what is skill and how does it help?

What are skills
Skills are abilities or knowledge that a person has gained through training or experience. They are used to get jobs or activities done well and quickly. Communication, solving problems, organisation, and technical skills are all examples of skills. A person can be more successful in their personal and professional lives if they have a wide range of skills.
Hard/soft Skills and their Essence
Hard skills are specific, technical abilities or knowledge that can be taught and learned. Some examples of hard skills are programming languages, being able to speak a foreign language, and knowing how to use design software. These are skills that are often listed on job descriptions and resumes. Most people learn these skills in school or on the job. They are specific to a job or industry and are often easy to measure and can be put into numbers.
On the other hand, you need soft skills to build strong relationships and talk to people in a clear way. These skills can help you get along with other people, make good choices, and solve problems. Soft skills are also important for your mental and emotional health. They can help you adjust to new situations and deal with stress in a healthy way.There are many useful soft skills for everyday life. Some examples are cooking, making a budget and planning finances, taking care of and fixing things around the house, and managing time. Basic first aid, being ready for an emergency, and self-defense are also useful soft skills for daily life. These skills can help people live more independently, be more self-reliant, and deal with a wide range of everyday situations.
Bottom Lines
Been efficient at a skill is important.For instance a fashion designer is invited unexpectedly by a prominent person to make a cloth, or a barber is invited to give a hair cut,or a software engineer is called out(the happiness that comes from this, is next to non)but can't deliver.He/she will loose the opportunity as someone else will be invited. So Whether it is a hard or soft skill , acquiring a skill and been efficient at it is very important in life as it gets us prepared for when the good opportunities we seek in life eventually comes or when we are called to that aspect we've been wanting all along .We will be ready and prepared to deliver and gain success.Opportunities will present it self but been prepared and ready for any opportunity is a plus .
