Sometimes our callings only become clear later on in our lives and following them at that stage is up to us. A brave young woman Kholofelo Makofane recently shared with Facebook page Varsity World how she made the brave decision to leave her job as a bank manager to become a building science student.
"I was once an Assistant Branch Manager at Capitec Bank. After almost 5 years I decided to follow my dreams of being in construction. 2019, at the age of 29 I was a first-year Building Science student at TUT. 2020 at age 30 I was given an opportunity to do my Experiential Training at Steffanuti Stocks. 2021 at age 31, I am a final year student.
"One day I hope to tell my full story, but for now, may I inspire that person who is so afraid and is thinking they are too old to follow their dreams. One day I will be a Quantity Surveyor. One day there will be other Kholo's taking a leap of faith and accomplishing their dreams. I am Kholofelo Makofane, one day you will know my story."
