Qualifications and skills open doors in the diaspora; however, strong character keeps them open and even generates new ones. Many Nigerians feel that the only way to succeed overseas is to obtain as many certifications as possible. While education is important, character frequently speaks louder than degrees. Employers, neighbours, co-workers, and even strangers look at more than just what you say; they consider how you act, how you treat people, and if they can trust you.

Jack’s Mindset

Good character shows itself in tiny ways. Do you arrive on time? Do you keep your words? Do you respect others regardless of their position? These are not insignificant things; they form the foundation of how others perceive you. A single recommendation from someone who trusts your character can land you opportunities you never dreamed of. Sometimes, it is not the smartest or most talented person who wins, but the one who can be counted on. Employers often say: “I can train you for skill, but I can’t train you for character.”

What are your thoughts?

Nigerians sometimes underestimate the cultural weight of integrity in the UK. Back home, shortcuts may open doors, but in the UK, dishonesty, lateness or carelessness can close them permanently. People talk. A reputation spreads fast, whether good or bad. If you are known as someone reliable and honest, people will mention your name in rooms where decisions are made. That is how character translates into opportunities—jobs, partnerships, mentorships and even friendships that enrich your life.

Good character also gives you confidence in yourself. When you know you're acting with integrity, you walk with a distinct level of confidence. You don't dread being revealed, because your activities are consistent with your principles. This inherent strength evokes trust. And once won, trust leads to more opportunities.
