You have to start thinking!!

Let's make something clear,"students think". Infact,students think a lot,about money,about drinks,about parties,about the opposite sex and so on but most importantly students think about their about lives after school,which is good,the bad about it is that its majorly unrealistic thoughts like "hey,am finally in 100 level studying economics in kogi state university,and I'll graduate in 4 years time,then go and serve,probably do some phd and masters thingy then get a job and the rest money". That's so unrealistic that its makes wwe wrestling is more real. Its plain garbage thought you need to start getting out of your head. This life isn't hollywood,and when you're born into one hell of a country like Nigeria you need to wise up and start thinking with your "brain". If you can take your time and look outside your window to see millions of graduates roaming about the streets you'll probably understand that its not as easy as you think it is,if it was that easy your parents and your friends parents and all parents in nigeria will be multi billionaires,not needing to send you to school self. Life isn't easy,and nigeria is making life even harder for nigerians,the labour market is so choked up,it will take extra power for an angel to pass through. There is hardship in every corner of the country and the earlier you realise this things,the better for you. So instead partying and smiling all around school why don't you sit yourself down and not only think logically but also plan logically. This topics might get you onto the right path:
 - First and foremost you need to realise you only have one life to live,every circumstance you find yourself will most definitely come once,you don't go to primary school twice,well,except you're going there the second time to teach or something. My point is,in every situation you find yourself you have to try hard in making the best outta that situation,if you don't succeed its okay,atleast you tried.
 - Ask yourself questions,like why are they few rich people in the country,what can I do to get there,what are my potentials,what are my weaknesses. You have tons of questions you should start asking yourself. - You need to start tasking yourself. Are too young to make money ?? I mean,they are loads of unemployed graduate out there who still depend on their parents. I know you don't want to belong in that category when you're done with school. You need to know what you have to do to make that money so you'll only have to depend on yourself alone. God has given you a talent,why don't you discover it and start using it to make money now. Their are tons of things you can do as an undergraduate that can cough out money for you,you just need to think and plan on how to strike a balance between your academics and what you're doing. Its not how petty the job is or how little you're earning. Its about knowing for a fact that you can do something to improve your situation. A lot of ond,hnd, bsc,phd holders out there(those certs are a common thing nowadays),some even have all those certs with them at the moment but have nothing to show for it because they failed to realise that school is not about learning on how to work for a boss,its also about how to develop yourself to being your own boss.
 - You need to stop thinking about your future and know that the future you are thinking of is "NOW". You have to start thinking and planing logically from now on. - You need to start encouraging yourself to do things that'll make you big. Forget where you are now,it doesn't matter,its where you're going to be when its all said and done that matters. Forget the fact that you stay in dagana or you stay in one shady place around ksu,and your fellow mates stay in billionaires lodge or exquisite lodge(its probably not their money anyways),it doesn't matter,what matters is you formulating a plan that will change your situation when four years is done and dusted. 
- All in all you have to think of doing only what's necessary to get that money,not whats good or bad,not something people like or what they don't like,not what brings shame to you or doesn't bring shame to you,you don't have to care what people think about you,cause at the end of it all its you and only you that matters. Remember,doing whats good or bad set people apart from eachother,but doing what's necessary sets people above their equals. Noboday remembers the disgusting or not disgusting things dangote has done in the past,cause it was necessary to get him to where he is now,"the richest man in africa". 
"D difference between possession and ownership;when a person is sweating under the sun selling handkerchiefs and can't take one of it to clean his face,but then goes home with enough money to buy himself a mansion full of handkerchiefs"

Quotes and lessons

Successful people have two things on their lips, "smile and silence".
Smile can solve problem while Silence can avoid problems.
Sugar and salt may be mixed together but ants reject the salt and carry away only the sugar.
Select the right people in life and make your life better and sweeter.
If you fail to achieve your dreams, change your ways not your God. Remember, trees change their leaves and not their roots.
You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones to every dog that barks. Haters will see you walking on water and say its because you can't swim. Even if you dance on water, your enemies will accuse you of raising dust. Make it your ambition to live a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your own hands.
Remember, don’t ever wrestle with a pig. You’ll both get dirty, but the pig will enjoy it.

Explanation of life

On the first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years." The dog said,"That's a long time to be barking.. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?":| So God agreed On the second day, God created the monkey and said, "Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty- year life span." The monkey said,"Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?" And God agreed On the third day, God created the cow and said, "You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years." The cow said,"That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?" And God agreed again On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years." But the human said,"Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?" "Okay,"said God."You asked for it." So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves.\m/ For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our family For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren : And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone Life has now been explained !
