Israel, my youngest brother once asked when he was much younger, why is it that this salt never changes taste even after we’ve kept it in the house for a long time? Truth is told, I really could not give an accurate reply because I could not think of a genuine answer. Well, as an elder brother, I just told him that salt does not spoil – which is of course correct.

A few years down the line, when I began to expand my knowledge of science, I realized that salt retains its power irrespective of how long it is kept. This makes it a very useful preservative for many food substances as well as many organic and inorganic materials.

So, can salt ever be desalted? I am sure you are itching to get the fact behind this question. Hold on, it will be clear in a moment.

Since salt is a constituent or preservative for many substances, it can be removed from those several substances by a process called desalting. In this case, various scientific methods have been used (not focusing on material) which include distillation, dialysis, and gel filtration, among several others.

You may have also known and discovered that salt can be removed from its solution by simple evaporation. But my question now is, have you ever heard of a desalted salt? Well, to the best of my knowledge, I have not, or have you?

The same thing applies to you. As humans, you may have been integrated as a member of an establishment, organization, or scheme. What if you are dismissed from such an organization due to one reason or the other, do you still have worth?

Now, don’t get me wrong. You may say you have some savings in your bank account. But do you know that an average Nigerian spends up to 3 dollars per day? This shows that you, with seemingly many savings in your account, will have a higher spending capacity. So, when will it not finish?

I read just a snippet of a book by Toyin Omotosho, “How to turn yourself into a live breathing cash machine” and I understood that knowing your worth helps you to know what to do that can bring you cash whenever you need it.

Hence, the need for skills set in. Don’t be mediocre. Learn an in-demand skill or business. Be diligent and consistent, even if does not work out at first. But, when it becomes part and parcel of you, it can never be taken away, just like salt can never be desalted.
