The best investment you can make is in yourself.

_Warren Buffett.

Everything in this life has a starting point, success isn't excepted, it has where it begins. You could have looked else where for the commence of success, but the truth of the matter is that it could only begin in you, and not anywhere else. It starts by you investing in yourself first. A wise man once said if you're successful within, you will certainly be successful outwardly and externally, and that's where investing in yourself comes in. If someone do not invest in his/herself first, nobody will do that for him/her. Self investment is highly vital to the extent that it's the pivot upon which your life's success depends.

Invest in Knowledge, gain Knowledge.

I have always heard that "knowledge is power", and of a truth, it is. If you have a knowledge of a particular thing, you've certainly obtained the power thereof. No wonder some very smart and great individuals went to obtain it first, they spent their time to learn and acquire knowledge, their funds were also used to gain it. I read it somewhere that some spent at least 20 Percent ( 5 hours, 20minutes) of their day on learning about things, despite their busyness. That's one of the core things that contributed to their greatness. Knowledge is full of value, and the way our today's world is, technology is taking over, everything is becoming digitalized, even our finances, so, it's necessary you invest your time and other resources into learning new and valuable things as touching Tech and IT so that you can gain knowledge in this area too, in order for you not to be left out. More so, you see this ongoing technical advancement, it's has a lot of benefits, it's even making learning easy, you could be in the comfort of your room and leverage on the internet to learn anything you wish. By doing these, you're investing in yourself.

We can also gain Knowledge by watching educative videos from the internet.

The internet is a space made available for our benefits and advantages.

There was a time, in my 200 level in the university, a sewing machine was given to my mum as a gift by someone in my hometown, so she asked if i wanted it, i said yes, and she gave it to me. I saw that as an opportunity to begin learning tailoring, but due to my academic activities, there wasn't time and funds to enrol in a tailoring school, so i went online, the YouTube previously, and downloaded videos of on how to cut and sew various parts of man's wears. Today i sew my clothes by myself, i sew for others too, just through the online videos I watched i learnt our to sew.

More so, i have seen people who became proficient in web development and software engineering as a result of the first step they took by learning programming languages online through videos.

Invest in your Mind.

Your mind is one of the greatest asset of your life, you need to invest in it, nurture it so that you can have many more things to offer at this present time as well as in the future to come. Every available opportunity you have to learn new things, never overlook it, utilize it hugely. Learning will help you to expand your mind and make it very active. You can also engage yourself in playing of Word Games, such as Scrabble, involving oneself in some mathematical task will also be very helpful.

Invest in your Talent, develop it.

Another way to invest in yourself is by developing your Talents. There is nobody in this world without a Talent, but the reason why some people look like who do not have talent is because they refused to develop it. Tell me, Talent isn't worked on, amplified and widened, how would such manifest elaborately? It isn't a magic, it won't.

If you're talented in writing, don't just let operate at the ordinary level, you can develop and advance it so much that you would be heard and known globally for it. I've heard of people who became international figures as a result of their writing abilities, they've published several books through which millions of lives were blessed and are still blessed universally.

If you discover you're talented in singing, you could develop it more by moving close to people who could help you advance it more, you could also learn how to play musical instruments, it's going to enhance your musical talent.

Do you have the Talent of playing football? Make a move to make it more developed, invest your time and money into it, it could even require you to leave your local environment to football are more valuable, your family might probably not be there, you just have to take the sacrifice, that's part of you investing in your talent, and that's self investment. Sooner or later, it's going to bring you fortunes to you.
