An important definition of authority from collinsdictionary

Self-assurance and expertness that come with experience

It is now clear that the path towards becoming an authority is not simple by picking a niche and specializing. Or a veteran, but a person of self-assurance and confidence, an expert in his niche and an influencer. You can become an authority by becoming establishing credibility with accurate result.

Let’s consider one example Oprah

Oprah and the place of authority

It is absolutely difficult not to mention Oprah as one of the most influential people on the planet earth. As a single individual and women not associated with religion, politics or squabble for recognition, she has managed to become an authority and influencer in the world at large. From reading books to travelling the world, helping people realize their potential for good and becoming free from addiction.

You name it!

Oprah has 41.6M followers on twitter  and about 12M fans on Facebook. You can now see the kind of power, authority and influence Oprah commands on people.

Anything she says,  recommend, criticize or even condemn becomes affected immediately as a result of authority and influence she has on people.

When deciding, what authority, power and influence are, consider Oprah, consider president Trump. These indicate the place of becoming an authority in your niche online and commanding the same respects these people get only in your niche.

Quit your 8-7 jobs

Millions of people around the world are on quitting their  9-5 jobs. In Nigeria unfortunately, many people are looking for the 8-7 jobs. A time is coming for the workforce of over 120 million Nigerians to quit Government and private institutions and become self-employed.  According to  GlobeNewswire 

The Data suggest a dramatic shift in the American workforce, whereby the number of Americans working for themselves could triple, bringing the total population of self-employed professionals to 42 million by 2020

This has clearly shown even in Nigeria, we can start seeing a shift in the people, as the move  from Government owned parastatals to self-employed jobs around the world, therefore

It is time to quit!!

Don’t get focus on your career so much that you would forget about living itself. In order to start living, you need to start a job that will engage you less and give room for living a life, not becoming a slave to your job.

In preparing to quit 8-7 slavery in Nigeria,  it is best to figure what you can offer that other people can’t. Simply put, cultivate the habit of becoming an entrepreneur in Nigeria. Become a blogger, a marketer and make a living.   The likes of Adenuga, Dangote etc can become a role model for you when quitting.
