The other day I stumbled on an interesting, mind-blowing song and wanted to have it on my device in case I run out of data whenever I want to watch it again, but there was no option on Youtube that says “download on your device” or something close. I tried every option but it proved abortive until I came to realize how to download from Youtube with ease.
You should know that it is illegal to download from Youtube using a thir-party app, as it is against Youtube’s terms of service, which states that “you are only able to stream videos directly from its servers” Downloading Youtube videos also opens you up to potential copyright infringement unless you have permission from the copywriter holder. The issue of copyright is a big one in developed countries; they do not joke with it a bit. If found guilty, could land you a law suit and fine of over $10, 000.
With the above being established, Youtube offers some ways to download from its web or app platform.
Get 4K Video Downloader: Copy the link of the video you wish to download and paste on this app to download content on your local device.
Download Tubemate: This works more like Youtube and has a similar logo with Youtube. Once you install it on your device, choose your preferred video and download.
The simplest way to download from Youtube web, not App( you could toggle on “watch later” on the App to enable you view videos in offline mode):
To download this video, all you need to do is edit the link and add “ss” just like we have it down here.
ssyoutube.com/watch?v=BW_DYhv-FTU
Technically, all you are editing or deleting from “http://www.m.youtube.com/watch?v=BW_DYhv-FTU” is “http://www.m.” while you insert “ss” immediately before “youtube”

While younger, we were taught not to show off in social situations as it is considered rather rude; Humility was inculcated to us from childhood. Consequently, as adults, we rather consider it odd when asked to talk about our achievements.

what you value most in life, how it can be of importance to the firm and whether, of course, you are a good fit for the job.

“My greatest accomplishment occurred in my previous position as an HR Administrator.I noticed team members often had difficulty locating specific files – which reduced productivity, particularly during busy periods. So I took the initiative to implement a team filing system. I scanned every vital document, which I then saved to shared folders on our computer system.At the end of the month, our timesheets indicated that the time spent looking for files had reduced by several hours.”
“My greatest accomplishment is when I took over a children’s reading group in my current position as a Library Assistant. Children between the ages of 7 and 12 can come to the library on a Saturday morning, we read a chapter of a book together and then we discuss it.At the time, my official responsibility was to provide customer service at the front desk. However, one of our Library Supervisors retired and no replacement was hired. Due to the lack of staff, the library made the difficult decision to cut the weekly children’s reading group.I was saddened to hear about the disappointment felt by the children and their parents. I volunteered to change my shifts so I worked on a Saturday morning and could run the reading group. I am now the leader of the group. I help choose the books we read, prepare questions for an educational discussion and organize games and other activities.We get around five to ten children per session. Their parents are so grateful we were able to continue the group and I enjoy interacting with children who love to read.”

Phone addiction is a problematic scenario of constantly using one’s mobile phone. It is a behavioural addiction thought to be similar to the internet, gambling, shopping or gaming which leads to severe impairment to one’s life.
Being too addicted to phone use can lead to
Depression symptoms: these are some serious psychological issues in an adolescent. There is a close relationship between depression symptoms and addiction which may be evident by suicidal thoughts and school failure.
Isolation: The more glued you are to your phone the less social life you tend to involve yourself in, which could further lead to serious problems in life
Low self-esteem and anxiety: It is proven that when you spend more time on your phone or the internet your self-esteem would drastically drop and also lead to too much worry about trivial issues because you have no one other than your mobile phone to interact with.
To break your addiction, adhere to the following
Set aside one day or two: Try as much as possible to take a day or two from your mobile phone; the entire day. It could be any day of the week.
Use applications to bolster your self-control: There are applications for everyday problems. Try to download one of the following
Space. This app would help you set goals on how to use your phone
Moment. This helps you with your phone in a healthy way
Flipd. It helps you lock distracting apps that keep you glued to your movies.
Screentime. This helps you set daily limits on the number of hours you spend on your phone.
Do not charge your phone near your bed: Everyone loves to have electric sockets close to their beds. Try to resist this as it would increase your addiction
Put your phone away when you walk in the door: When you are about to get something important done, try to put your phone away in a locker or bag.
Change your phone setting: Some settings on your phone can help you reduce its usage. Putting your phone on airplane mode, setting a longer password, turn on “do not disturb”, freeze apps that keep you glued for a long time.
Following these can help break your phone addiction and make life more stress-free for you.

The Holy Writ has it that you do good whenever it is in your power. This is crystal clear enough, help when you can, to as many as possible. A handful of us subscribes to the school of thought that believes in helping those who would be of help in life. This is, relatively, a wrong perspective about life.
One needs to get to the point where you are moved with the precarious situations your fellow humans are going through. You need to have eyes full of compassion by swapping your stone-cold heart with a soft-warm heart. You need to make the difference. Enough of giving “my ancestors are tight-fisted” as an excuse.
You need to learn to give not because you have more than enough but you know what it means to have nothing. You need to also inculcate in you the act of giving not for getting back, but to put smiles on the faces of people. When you have this as a motive behind your giving, you would be less concerned with “what will I get in return if I help you?”
People are going through a lot, hungry stomachs, helpless situations, the least you could do is give the little you can in any way. So many are out there down with sadness, others are drowning in depression and they are in dire need of a hug, soothing words from you. Give it anyways.
Life is dishing out its share of vicissitudes to everyone who would care for a hug of “it is going to be okay Keep staying strong” You cannot afford to keep your cosy hand of friendship. Dare to make the difference in your little world. If you have the means, do not be tight-fisted. If you have the means, a word of encouragement can go a long way, most especially this lock-down period. A simple call, chat, a message would go a long way to help. Do not stop helping, giving a hand, rising to the occasion for others, even if it involves going out of your way.
Givers never lack – you may at one point be in need of what you have given out in the past, but you can never lack the future reward of what you have given. Keep giving. God gave, has given, and always give. You too can

They said fear is one of the universal seven emotions that has a lion share in everyone who has ever stepped on the surface of the Earth. Even the tough Adolf Hilter of West Germany must have had his own share of fear, little wonder he committed suicide on the 30th of April, 1945. You see, a lot of things happened in 1945, but today is not for history, it is about facing our fear. It is considered a negative emotion that serves an important role in keeping us safe, better still, handicapped, from doing things.
Fear is caused by different things, ranging from natural, psychological, and physical happenings. Fear can be expressed in so many ways. The facial expression is the type of fear that is glaring and more prevalent on the face. A raised eyebrow, teeth-gnashing, exaggerated eyelids, are some of the examples that depict fear on the face. Vocal Expression is also a way that depicts fear. Whenever your voice cracks and breaks at something, then you are obviously terrified. A sensation of fear is when you experience some rather strange things like cold feet, shaking hands
Here are practical ways to overcome one’s fear
Try to relax whenever you feel scared. Just stay calm and watch yourself handle the situation
Know yourself. This is one of the first human priority on earth.
It is rather weird, but sometimes you need to face your fears for some minutes. Take some time off to live with your fear and breathe with “it will be fine” or “it is okay, I will come out of this”
Be rather grateful for all you have been through or achieved in life. This could be wearisome, but try to pen down the things you are grateful for.
Remind yourself that nothing lasts. Every predicament has its own expiry date. Things come and go.
Try to eradicate your fears with something funny or hilarious. Try to see comedy skits or movies.
Kill Negative thoughts by constantly bugging your mind to outlive your fear.
Above all and not least, there is a need to pray about your fears. Praying has proven to be a universal problem solver. So, tender your fears in the place of prayers, regardless of your religion.
Learn to overcome your fears. It is nothing but an illusionary mind game that you only give permission to mess with you. Fear is nothing

This sounds elementary, nonetheless, I will try to give it a fair trial.
A balanced diet, as the name implies, is a meal that contains nutrients that nourishes the body. When consumed they help build the body’s antigens, antibodies and help the body stay strong, which in a nutshell means, they give you a healthy physique. What makes your meal a balanced one is the presence of “calories” Calories are substances present in your food that gives that food the ability to give you energy when you consume them.
The number of calories in your food is tantamount to the amount of energy that food can provide you with. The body uses calories for everything, from walking, talking, breathing, sleeping, everything there is. Ever wondered why during fast you have little strength to talk or even walk? It is simply because you are low on calories.
Why is a balanced diet important?
To start with, as earlier said, your organs, tissues, systems need nutrition to properly function. It would be nice of you if you did not starve those little “machine” inside you.
The absence of a nourished organ can lead to its malfunctioning, which invariable, would cause susceptibility to sickness and diseases of every kind. Do you know the number of mosquitos and insect that has bitten you, yet you did not develop malaria or some chronic case? What is responsible for that a well-nourished body.
How to achieve a balanced diet?
You really do not need a fortune to achieve a balanced meal. It is way affordable to every class on the income scale. There are some foods that are low in unnecessary fats but rich in vitamins and other minerals. A few of them are:
Fruits: When consumed, some fruits not only nourishes the body with the necessary nutrients, they also help flush the body, smoothen the skin, helps with digestions, and so on. Examples are Oranges, Water Melon, Apples, PawPaw, Banana, the list is endless. Like medical practitioners say “An Apple a day can save you”
Vegetables: They are the primary source of vitamins and minerals. The beauty of vegetables is you can combine them together in your meal. A typical salad meal should be a good combination. Eating vegetables helps human blood in a way that is biological.
Proteins: Like it is said in elementary science, protein helps rebuild the body’s worn-out tissues. It will interest you to know that Beans is not all protein as you know. It contains 60-70% carbohydrate and other minerals including protein. It is therefore advised to cook your beans with proteinous or protein-rich ingredients, like spice if with fish, crayfish, and so on. It is not all about eating just “carbs”, a little blend with protein makes your meal balanced.
Dairy: Dairy is the kind of food gotten from cattle and it is highly rich in Calcium- the bone booster- Vitamin D, and so on. It is advised to, once in a while, take milk or yoghurt to keep strong. They also supply fats to your body.
So, my friend, ensure you eat a balanced meal today.

I believe you understand what answer to give this. They are not interested in knowing whether you are physically strong or healthy or otherwise. They want to know your strongest areas in an ideal world and sort of weakness with plans of working on it.
Your Strength
This question is asked to verbally verify the potential you possess in handling matters. It is to know the attributes/traits that would make you shine/advance/perform-well in the role you are applying for. Generally, you need to lay emphasis on soft skills you possess and how you have applied them in the course of your career. Here are some of the soft skills you can build on as it applies to you
Good communicator
Time management abilities
Team play
Ability to work under pressure
For example, you could answer in this format ” I am an adaptable person. I have always been a great team player. I am good at keeping a team together and producing quality work in a team environment.” “I am able to adjust my approach to meet deadlines”
Your Weakness
One thing I need you to bear in mind is, do not mention a weakness you have no plan to correct or change. This question should answer areas you are struggling in your career. Basically, mentioning your weakness entails talking about hard skills. They are:
Procrastination
Disorganized
Impatient
Inability to self regulate, leading to burning out
Do not just mention these and keep quiet. Say things on how you are working seriously to overcome this challenge.
For example “I have some challenges with doing things as quickly as possible because I mostly forget. But I have adopted a principle of having sticky notes that remind me of things to do.” ” I have never been comfortable with public speaking which as you know, can be a hindrance in the workplace. Realizing this as a problem, I enrolled in a speech workshop and now I am able to overcome my lifelong fear. Since then I have been given lots of presentations to make. I still do not love it, but I believe with time I would get better”
It is therefore imperative you look inward and draft out where your strengths and weaknesses lie.

I believe this is an interview question that requires sincerity and “gravity”.
Foremost, an interview session is not a do-or-die affair, it is more of a get-it-or-not process of an application. One should not see an interview period as a destiny-influencing. It is no big deal afterwards, getting the job or not mean the end of the world neither does it imply something otherwise.
Here are a few things to put in mind when considering answering the aforementioned question.
1. Your personal data is not necessary: They are not interested in what your name is, where you are from, what your forefathers look like, and so on.
2. Mention past experience and proven successes as they relate to the position you are applying for. This could be messed up a little, try not to get it wrong. They simply want to know where you have worked previously- internship, part-time jobs, volunteer jobs- and how your previous position makes you a perfect match for the new role you are applying for.
3. Consider how your current/previous role is in relation to the role you are applying for. Even if you previously worked in a bakery and wishes to work in a bank, try to channel in a good way how your personality would make you a perfect fit for the job.
4. Focus on your strength and abilities that you can support with examples. Do not talk about how bad you are, if you are a bad person (but I do not see any reason why you should be a bad person in the first place). Support your claims with real-life examples of how you support a co-worker to beat a deadline or complete a project.
5. Try to mention hobbies that suites the role you are applying to. If you are applying for the role of a front-desk officer, mention hobbies like typing, writing articles, reading, etc.
More importantly, you need to practise this question over and over again to get used to answering the questions whenever you are attacked with it in.

Conflicts are rancour that has tendencies of occurring one or a few times in a lifetime. Issues would always erupt from friends and families that might tend to last longer than normal leading to bigtime conflicts.
There are some principles that could help solve conflicts if followed.
Have an intimate conversation with the person: Do not just pick up your phone and intend to start a conversation because you feel its right for you. You need to ask the other fellow when and where would be convenient for them to have a talk. Also, try to be honest with them as possibly possible.
Listen carefully: There are so many people who talk, but few listen. One needs to listen carefully to whatever explanation the third party has to say when solving conflict. As much as you would want to listen, it is imperative to ask questions for clarification purposes when necessary.
Develop a plan to solve the conflict: Start with the most important conflict; you need not beat around the bush, just go straight to the point with precision and carefulness. Set up future meeting plans to continue the conversation if necessary; It could be possible that you might not resolve the conflict in one meeting, so, try to reschedule a future meeting.
Follow through on your plan: Try as much as possible to wheel off digressing from the bone of contention. Ensure you stick your nose into the course of the conflict to resolving it. Maintain a collaborative ” let-us-work-out-a-solution” attitude; the essence of coming together in the first place is to resolve the conflict, try to come up with a “how do we make things us with each other” attitude. More like the positive way forward.
Build on your Success: Look for opportunities to point out progress; after possible reaching of compromise between the two parties, ensure you both factor in some moments that would foster the relationship and make the bonds glue the more, for example going to the cinema, restaurants, playing games amidst others. Compliment the other person’s insight and achievement; try to see the good in what their plans for life and career are and make a constructive contribution. Congratulate yourselves for reaching a compromise.
Following these principles could help put a lifelong conflict to an end.

This is a dicey question to answer about fat people; mostly, people with a round face, fist and wrist belong to the group of fat people. They are a very special kind of people. But there are few facts about them I would like to mention. Being fat is something I really look forward to, but, the stress involved is not worthy of emulation.
First, unapologetically, fat people do not like doing things that would inconvenient them. They are not cut-out for rigorous exercise and strenuous activity. They always like to be stationary and by inferring, kind of lazy. Reading is one of their parallel traits. They do not like to read
Also, fat people are the lovable kind of humans. They know how to get people to do things they want. In business, a smart fat person makes a good salesman/woman. They know too well how to compel and make people do things they want.
In conclusion, they love to eat. A fat person can do anything for his/her pleasure. They could go extra miles to ensure they are happy and healthy. In addition, fat people are very generous, they are not tight-fisted. These are the few things I can say about fat people.

I believe you understand what answer to give this. They are not interested in knowing whether you are physically strong or healthy or otherwise. They want to know your strongest areas in an ideal world and sort of weakness with plans of working on it.
Your Strength
This question is asked to verbally verify the potential you possess in handling matters. It is to know the attributes/traits that would make you shine/advance/perform-well in the role you are applying for. Generally, you need to lay emphasis on soft skills you possess and how you have applied them in the course of your career. Here are some of the soft skills you can build on as it applies to you
For example, you could answer in this format ” I am an adaptable person. I have always been a great team player. I am good at keeping a team together and producing quality work in a team environment.” “I am able to adjust my approach to meet deadlines”
Your Weakness
One thing I need you to bear in mind is, do not mention a weakness you have no plan to correct or change. This question should answer areas you are struggling in your career. Basically, mentioning your weakness entails talking about hard skills. They are:
Do not just mention these and keep quiet. Say things on how you are working seriously to overcome this challenge.
For example “I have some challenges with doing things as quickly as possible because I mostly forget. But I have adopted a principle of having sticky notes that remind me of things to do.” ” I have never been comfortable with public speaking which as you know, can be a hindrance in the workplace. Realizing this as a problem, I enrolled in a speech workshop and now I am able to overcome my lifelong fear. Since then I have been given lots of presentations to make. I still do not love it, but I believe with time I would get better”
It is therefore imperative you look inward and draft out where your strengths and weaknesses lie.

I believe this is an interview question that requires sincerity and “gravity”.
Foremost, an interview session is not a do-or-die affair, it is more of a get-it-or-not process of an application. One should not see an interview period as a destiny-influencing. It is no big deal afterwards, getting the job or not mean the end of the world neither does it imply something otherwise.
Here are a few things to put in mind when considering answering the aforementioned question.
1. Your personal data is not necessary: They are not interested in what your name is, where you are from, what your forefathers look like, and so on.
2. Mention past experience and proven successes as they relate to the position you are applying for. This could be messed up a little, try not to get it wrong. They simply want to know where you have worked previously- internship, part-time jobs, volunteer jobs- and how your previous position makes you a perfect match for the new role you are applying for.
3. Consider how your current/previous role is in relation to the role you are applying for. Even if you previously worked in a bakery and wishes to work in a bank, try to channel in a good way how your personality would make you a perfect fit for the job.
4. Focus on your strength and abilities that you can support with examples. Do not talk about how bad you are, if you are a bad person (but I do not see any reason why you should be a bad person in the first place). Support your claims with real-life examples of how you support a co-worker to beat a deadline or complete a project.
5. Try to mention hobbies that suites the role you are applying to. If you are applying for the role of a front-desk officer, mention hobbies like typing, writing articles, reading, etc.
More importantly, you need to practise this question over and over again to get used to answering the questions whenever you are attacked with it in.

This is a dicey question to answer about fat people; mostly, people with a round face, fist and wrist belong to the group of fat people. They are a very special kind of people. But there are few facts about them I would like to mention. Being fat is something I really look forward to, but, the stress involved is not worthy of emulation.
First, unapologetically, fat people do not like doing things that would inconvenient them. They are not cut-out for rigorous exercise and strenuous activity. They always like to be stationary and by inferring, kind of lazy. Reading is one of their parallel traits. They do not like to read
Also, fat people are the lovable kind of humans. They know how to get people to do things they want. In business, a smart fat person makes a good salesman/woman. They know too well how to compel and make people do things they want.
