Reality check...Are you prepared to fail?
Let's get this straight when you graduate from university will you have a job lined up for you, short answer is Hell No. Now let's discuss the long answer I'll be as frank as possible.
On Tuesday on of my lecturers was talking to us in class about the harsh reality of our current predicament, the example was if there are 350 of us in a graduating class. 50 of us will continue to graduate studies here, 50 will seek better opportunities abroad while 50 of us will get the 50 jobs out there, this leaves 200 people who remain broke and unemployed. So what do the 200 do?
I'll leave that question hanging out there...
The lovely thing is about me writing this is as a near graduate you still have time to think about what you're going do. It's not too late to come up with a plan, a realistic way of you getting out of your potential slump.
There is a formula for everything under the sun, even the steps that you can take to get exactly where you want to be within a reasonable time. It's all about learning the art of manipulation, getting the greatest reward by matching it with targeted lowest effort. Sounding like a life hack, but for you it may just work...
1. Ask yourself hard questions and force your self to answer. .. questions such as
Where do you see yourself in 5 years, how long do I want to stay in school, Am I doing enough, or just getting by and how do I get there?
2. From Steve Harvey's think like a man, he instructs women to ask men...what are you long tern and short term goals, when is the last time you asked yourself the same questions
3. Put pen to paper...write out a plan from where you are to where you want to be find the steps, if you don't know don't be afraid to ask for help.
4. Be honest with yourself and prepare mentally for shortcomings. .. you are not the always going be successful you will fail it's not a matter of if, but when however because you are young you can always recover
Please think on these things and/or pass it on to a friend
