I wouldn't want it to bore most people so am gonna divide the article into two or maybe three different part... .

I know we all have goals and dreams to achieve but money has been the major reason why we haven't achieved them, but hopefully by the grace of God we'd all be rich within a matter of time so we would achieve all our goals...

Am a graphics designer by profession but still haven't furthered my education yet am still working for now, and at the same time I am into T-shirt branding, I do make music too but won't say much about that for now..

I have been working for my boss for about 7-8 years now and am happy am working with him though I don't get paid but am still happy coz he had impacted alot of things in my life, I can boldly say he gave me a reason to live and he gave me a career and a dream, he is my mentor..

He is Tonye Pollyn by name, he studied Fine Art, he is a professional artist and a good graphics designer and at the same time he is into T-shirt branding..

If am to be precise he is 42-43 years old, I met him about 8years ago, then I had nothing doing I was still confused on the path I want to follow, I was thinking of studying electrical electronics but I wasn't capable of it and later on I decided to go into fashion designing, I wasn't comfortable with it so I gave up and I was dream less and confused...

So I decided to live on there is still alot of time ahead of me, but I knew it was a risk for me coz I don't know what I want to get myself involved with, a man with no dream is nothing so I kept wandering around until I discovered there's an artist beside me, he is the neighbor next door...

He lives very very close to my house (Two Steps Away From My Door), when I noticed I kept peeking through his window and I do watch him paint and sketch without him noticing, I have been spying on him for over 4months and what drags my attention more was the skate board at his door entrance..

After some months I tried all my best to get close to him, I do greet him politely every morning and afternoon that I do see him in order to get his attention so he'd notice me..

Opportunity Comes Once In A While (Not Once Lol)

• "For me I do believe opportunity comes but its once in a while, some people do say opportunity comes but once, I doubt that lol "... Coz some people don't know there is an opportunity until it passes them by, but am sure another chance will come..

  It was a warm saturday evening when My own opportunity came, he was doing his house clean up and the whole house was dusty and his door was open, the job was too much for him I just opened his door and the next thing I said was

• "Good evening sir

• and he replied Evening, how are you??

I told him am good..

The next thing I did was to get a mob and a bucket I started mopping the house and I cleaned every damn thing in the house, it took about 3hours and everything was done so I told him I love his skateboard and he said I can keep it if I like it, he gave me the skateboard for free and I was happy and grateful about it...

I got the chance to see his works and also see what he is made of, I saw so many amazing paintings and T-shirt designs and I told him I love his Job and personality, he asked do you love my works?? I said yes, he asked again and I gave the same answer...

He said if I enjoy and love it he'd teach me every single thing, he told me he would start the tutoring tomorrow so that was the moment I began to learn more..

Am not into the painting aspect coz am not gonna lie am not good at drawing or sketching, so I focused on the graphics and T-shirt banding part but I focused a little on the painting...

Then I was still going to college so I don't have much chance to go to him, but I do make up chance for myself, I learnt alot from him with time.. I traveled for a year and some months and when I got back I went back to him and I kept learning coz there is a saying that we all know " Learning never Ends"

I think this might be all for now, don't want to stress your eyes that much I'd continue the article in the next part, the part one is how I got to meet my boss and how I have been with him and also my plans before 2025 stay cool guys am off to see some articles...
