In a small
Nigerian town lived a young boy named Daniel.
He wasn’t the smartest in school, and he didn’t come from a wealthy home. But
he had something many people didn’t notice - a powerful desire to change his
life.
Every
weekend, Daniel would visit an old scrapyard where people dumped broken
electronics. One day, he picked up a dusty, cracked radio. Everyone laughed at
him.
“Why carry
nonsense?” they said.
“It can never work again.”
But Daniel
didn’t listen. He carried the radio home, opened it, studied the parts, watched
videos on his small phone, and tried fixing it.
It didn’t
work the first day.
It didn’t work the second day.
But on the third day… the radio came alive.
The same
people who mocked him were shocked.
Word spread.
People started bringing their spoilt TVs, fans, phones, and radios to him.
Daniel repaired everything with patience, consistency, and YouTube tutorials.
By the time
he finished secondary school, the “boy who carried nonsense” had opened a small
repair shop. At 22, he was training others and making enough money to support
his family.
One day,
someone asked him:
“How did
you become successful?”
He smiled and
replied:
“I stopped
listening to people who were doing nothing… and started working on myself.”
