Handwork: Your Hand Can Feed You.
The importance of hand work or a skill cannot be overemphasized, and it's something that's very very good, especially in a world like ours, it puts you out there and makes one open to various opportunities.
And unlike the digital work that most times keeps your gaze on the screen and leaves your thoughts scattered, handwork helps you slow down and help you take your time to think things through, to notice the details and such.
And in a country like ours, y'all will agree with me that handwork is also a means of survival, the economy of the nation is somehow and you can't even survive by depending on one source of income. If you're doing a white collar job, it's important that you also have an handwork with it, and even if you're into hand work, it's better you run another business with it or have two handwork.... Or more if possible.
Because having a skill puts you out there and makes you earn more and be able to at least survive in difficult times. And another thing about handwork in the independence it gives. You're in control of it, you work when you want to, you rest at will and you can decide to stop taking more work if you're getting choked.
I learned tiling at a time, but I had to stop it because its to demanding physically...I mean it's stressful and it requires strength which I couldn't give it anymore after healing from an illness that kept me bedridden for years. So, I was advised against it, and I had to let go and that was when I went into customization works, among frames, customized mugs and the likes.
And like I said earlier, the importance of handwork/handcraft cannot be overemphasized, it is a very strong foundation to build a brand, start a business and also to survive in today's world.

There are numerous advantages attached to having a hand work. You mentioned quite a number of them. In a country like Nigeria, not having a skill is like going to farm with just one tool, just pray nothing happens to it..
Smiles, you're right about that, sir.

Even the government knows the importance of these skills and that's why they are implementing all these EED entrepreneur courses.
Relying totally on white colar job in this century is not a good idea
You're right momma ā¤ļø

Having hand work is great but the best way for a person to maximize the income earned from hand work is to digitalize it. Can someone have a skill without advertising it on the internet? So hand work becomes digital work the moment it is digitalized because the act of earning through internet by advertising your Skill is also considered a digital work. Imagine writing about your hand work right now, is it just hand work or digital work?

You're right about that sir, and I must say... I concur with you š.
