Cut chains with these 8 things after or even before you graduate.

There are some habits we just can not afford to leave college with. Some of us have sunk too deep in to some anti-world behaviours practically needless in the real world.College life no doubt is one type of life that we will all would want to keep living at least for some more couple of years after we graduate because by then, most situations favoured and supported us. It was fun. But NO!, we just can't afford such expensive risks anymore. There are some things we'd just wish to do while at college, and actually do them, even worse things and all we get back in return at worst is standing ovation whereas those kind of blunders should never be dared off-campus for reason whatsoever.
 Welcome to the real world! Mr. or Miss graduate. Now here are the rules governing the real world that you must abide by.
1.) Stop Depending on people:You are way older(you should be above 18 by now) to still be dependent on people. It's time to start fending for yourself, people can only assist you and not bear you at this time. You know you can't depend on mummy and daddy or aunt and uncle for your pocket money anymore like you used to do while in school. Even if they have to do anything of that nature for you any more, it never can be like before. So wake up and grasp the crux.

2.) Stop defending yourself with excuses: Making excuses to defend ourselves is just one of those other silly things to do but that should have been while still in school(which is actually not even a justifiable idea). But hey!, it's time to quit that crappy habit.You should be ready for real time challenges that will warrant you taking full responsibility of any crashups you might have caused. Taking responsibility is one very important thing you should think of developing because by now, the world is realer than the college world so you cant afford to be fooling around with so many excuses as you did while in college.

3.) Stop eating all those fast-foods and junks: Winnie watsup, the lecturer is already in class.Its Monday morning and it's already 7:28 am, you were supposed to wake by 5 am but you woke up late, you probably must have kept latenight(actually not reading), maybe somewhere in town gyrating.It's almost 7:30 now after a friend called, so you jump out of your bunk, dash into the bathroom, get dressed, and off you fly- to class, you want to be in class before 8:00. You have forgotten to take your breakfast(the most important meal of the day).  I will eat after the class, that's what you'd always say and you end up sustaining yourself with lacassera and gala-eating junk foods and this habit repeated itself all that long period of college. But hey, drop that ill habit it can kill you now(thanks to your age at college, you were young enough to take in all the junks and still breathe then but now, your metabolic cycle is nomore the same, things have changed) Start eating right, eat good food, you've already eaten enough junks in college. Stop eating junk foods.

4.) Cut down the alcohol: Don't mind Beyonce that sang "cant stop the al-co-ho-l", she doesn't even drink that much. You are just going to have to cut down on alcohol or worse still, stop alcohol even if Jack Daniels is your uncle and he gives you free drinks. Do you think you can still be drinking as if you are in college?, no i'm afraid, this is the real world, in the real world, hangovers are mostly during the weekends( in which case you wouldn't have to go to work the next day) and you can't compare that to college days' hangovers which doesn't have a time table and which the hangovers can lead to absenting in class(due to too much alcohol) and no one will ask you. But now, you just can't afford to risk a hangover on sunday night and not go to work on Monday, com'on!, your boss will ask you. Stop drinking like a fish. I'm actually not here to start preaching  to you, i guess you should have repented already.You are out of college, granted, college influence was the reason for that(since you couldn't control yourself),ye, but now, you are out of college, you should be out of green bottles. I don't need to start telling you the "signs and wonders" of alcohol but maybe i should remind you that alcohol is an ugly agent of frivolous spending and it portrays irresponsibility.

5.)Stop the company of bad friends:  Reshuffle your friends list. Not every friend you graduated with are bound to be your friends for life.Your life after college is 95% based on the people that you surround yourself with. If you’re spending all weekend drinking around a keg of stale beer at your buddy’s house then you might want to change your game plan up a little bit. It’s not tough to meet people after college who are looking to do big things, they might not be in your tiny hometown, but there are dreamers out there. You’ve just got to find them.

6.) Stop buying everything you see. well things are going to have to be changed a bit now that you are out of college. It's not everything you see and like that you will buy again like you used to do. Not anymore.like Lisa Froelings said "I’m not a big gadgets guy but I love clothes and shoes. It’s nearly impossible for me to walk past the Thomas Pink store without stopping in for a shirt. After you graduate you’re going to have to ease up on your spending. Your iPhone 6 works just fine and it’s okay if you only have two surfboards. Track your spending like a mafia boss and be thrifty".

7.) Stop procrastinating. I will do it tomorrow.there is enough time, i will do it, no problem, everything is under control, don't worry, take it slow, one at a time(you can add what you used to say when you want to commit the crime of procrastination) guy, wake up, you are already in your "tomorrow", you are already a graduate. You better stop that procrastination or else you can easily procrastinate your interview date or procrastinate your resumption date. with procrastination, you can't keep deadlines. after college, there are going to be a lot of responsibilities in your name that if you're still procrastinating, procrastination is just going to help you ruin a lot of things.In the real world, procrastination just doesn't sell.Life itself is too short to procrastinate.
8.) Stop "fooling around" in public: Stop fooling around in public places, employers are watching, stop screwing up your social media presence. if you were the type that posts "sh*ts" on social media, then that past may come back hunting your present. You may need to change the privacy settings especially on your facebook, twitter and instagram pages, its very important and make sure you regulate the contents, delete whatever is not worth shared with the public or better still, create new accounts. it's time to start being serious with things and life, those gallivanting days are over.
