For those that are not going further in their education, hustling mode is automatically activated. For some, it happened earlier (while in secondary school).

Many times children pass but parents fail (Financially), this could be a discouragement to some while it encourages others to combine hustling with education.

For those that make it to school whether with the help of their parents or by themselves, life in higher institutions is considered as a life of freedom. You go to class whenever you wish, you sleep, eat and do a lot of things without supervision but as good as this sounds, it could be detrimental and the effect could be lasting, if wrong choices are made. It is a place of discovery and becoming.

Some get pressured into wrong associations by peer groups. Some assume to be who they are not. Some get sent back home due to unseriousness. Some become politicians and activists. Some become Pastors and Evangelists. Some hook their life partner. It is a place where there is a lot of drama, rumors and gossip to pass around. \

Many cover their failure up with different excuses. They blame it on the government, parents, background, society etc. The truth is that life is not ready to give out what has not been worked for. It’s easier when your parents have done the work but if it’s not like that for you, you have to get up, do what you have to do and be intentional.

Nigerians, now that we’ve voted, are you proud of what you’ve done?

What does the Bible say?
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 talks about the time of man on earth and the order God has put to it. Many youths try to jump this time, they want to reap when they ought to be sowing. It can’t work!
Even though verse 16 and 17 talks about such irregularities, it was also said that everything will be judged. What an irony!

In all these, we can all agree that time is fair if it is worked with accordingly.

Still got questions?, the best person to ask is the creator of TIME!
He gave a simple answer in Matt. 6:33.
