The need to surround our lives with quality people can never be over emphasized. One of the greatest mistakes anyone could make is to value material things over how much value they have for the people around them.

The people in our lives is another thing we have go thank God for. We form our personalities, attitude, learn and unlearn things as a result of our exposure to people and life's pressures.

---

My mentor would say this to me "we are a sum total of everything we've learned from all the people we've met during the course of our living here on earth.

---

Most times we spent so much time and energy complaining about what people are not and how they aren't there for us that we don't get to notice what beauty is released around us as a result of our association with people.

---

I am not saying this to ignore the fact that some relationships aren't healthy for us and that there aren't people out there that we should cut as we strive to become better while growing in life. The essence of this whole thing is for you to always look beyond the negative and finding something positive to hold on to in anyone and any situation.

---

Some of you may have hot tempered friends, bosses and in the middle of the abuse and oppression, you may have to learn things such as tolerance, endurance and patience for the sake of a greater assignment in life.

---

Let this be the time when you make a decision to make the most of all your relationships. Maximize the benefits you get without taking advantage of anyone.

PHASE 1:

At this stage, we teach some minnows at our offline classroom to help attain self-sustenance. These minnows will then work with us as a team, reproducing other minnows. Currently, we have just wrapped up with Phase 1. And Phase 2 which is more demanding kicked off already. We have already recorded a track which you’ll find @theminnowschool. We are also in the process of recording a next track but the negotiation is still ongoing.

PHASE 2:

This basically is the core of the vision is to raise steem-backed entrepreneurs of young people. The method through which we execute the absolute idea goes as follows;

---

• SKILL ACQUISITION PROJECTS: where various skills will be taught to foster the emergence of new entrepreneurs that thrive on voluntarism.

---

• THE MINNOW SCHOOL TALENT HUNT: we greatly hope to give minnows who are not really writers but have other gifts such as singing, painting, dancing, acting a platform to express themselves and get their creativity beyond their minds. Basically, we are giving these young people a voice and ultimately awaken the writer in them.

---

• THE MINNOW SCHOOL ART/MUSIC EXHIBITIONS: here talented young people will get to showcase their talents and the value they have to offer to the community. We will be sponsoring art projects and professional music careers will emerge with this.
