Just got off a Zoom meeting called The Legacy Conference with 30 teens and young adults based in Mafi Yingor (about 150km from Accra).
My presentation was on youth mentorship. And if you know me, I just couldn't resist using an acrostic to drive my points home😉
Sure enough, I left the participants with this one derived from the word LEGACY:
L - learn as much as you can from your mentor
E - engage your mentor with respect
G - gratitude: show appreciation for the opportunity to learn
A - audience: be a model audience of one: 2 ears👂👂 + 1 mouth 👄 = listen twice as much as you talk😁
C - confidence: practice what you learn in spite of the inevitable mistakes
Y - you are the only one who can put what you learn into practice
Marvelous Monday and a wonderful week to you!
