A computer by definition is an electronic device that is
capable of accepting data, processing this data using a set of instructions to
produce visible out put such that could be printed out. Not quite long ago, experts
discovered how this phenomenal device can be used effectively in solving
financial, practical, mathematical, economical, scientific and social problems
among many other complex problems confronting the world today. Because of the
wild-range of computer application and usage in this fast growing and highly
civilized world, there is a great need to not only know how computers work but
to become the grand Master of computers.
The future of computer experts all over the world is quite
bright and promising thereby making computer knowledge highly necessary for
almost everyone. Many Companies are no longer willing to employ just any body.
Even security men today must not lack computer knowledge as they may not be
able to manage modern security gadgets that are computerized for proper
security of the personnel, products and assets of the companies in question.
It is interesting to know that governments of many countries
are fighting computer illiteracy with their every fleeting breathe by ensuring
that all their citizens are 'computer masters' through the introduction of
various computer training schemes. This is because computer revolution has
brought great transformation to the entire world especially technologically.
For instance, when you want to know what is happening in India, America, china,
Japan or any part of the world, simply hit your web browser and engage the
search engines like Google and wait for results. Sooner than you expect, you
are connected to the entire world with your first hand information readily
displayed in your web browser.
Have you ever imagined what the entire world will become
technologically in the next ten years if what we presently have constitutes
just about 4.9% of the total expectation of what is to come? What will be your
answer to this humble question following? Where will you be, what will you be
doing when this world finally depends on computers to eat, pay bills, travel,
make friends, do business, make payments, pass judgments, secure property,
control events, preach the gospel, broad cast news, drive home from the town,
diagnose and treat the sick or diseased?
This is not a condition for a 'peace treaty' or dialogue but
a wake up call to a total surrender and submission to learning and mastering
computer operation. Listen to me friend, you will be obsolete, outdated,
antiquated and washed out if you dare to remain a computer illiterate as you
are right now. Are you already unaware of how to become a computer Master? Who
looks up to for solutions to their computer problems and how do you handle
them? You don't even know how to boot your computer, or may be able to boot a
system but can't differentiate between warm and cold booting. Friend; you need
to do something now!
I want to let you know that you can not Master your computer
without first observing to have and do the following:
You must have a computer or at least have access to one as
this will give you the freedom of practice any time you wish to do so. Learn
one application at a time instead of combining many applications like
Corel-Draw with Microsoft Word as doing so may leave you more frustrated and
confused. Let me candidly advice you today please, enroll into a very good
computer training program to save your self from the shackles of feeling lonely
and dissatisfied having a computer but without the relevant operation skills.
Read relevant e-Books and other relevant materials on computer training as
often as you can. Practice any newly acquired operational skills till they
permanently become a part of you. Seek for mentor-ship and ask questions where
you do not understand. Finally, know that you are a potential computer master,
so spend quality time with your computer daily.
