Life of the Fresh Undegraduate

Stand Tall Among The Many

All my life I always wondered how it felt being a graduate student, many may think it is all heaven on earth that you are done with your bachelor's degree but trust me it is just the beginning of your learning process. Why say this? I believe in finishing something once and for all but this is not the case especially if you did a course as dynamic as Information technologies and its related courses. If this is not the most dynamic industry the world has offered to you then probably I am like 200% very wrong with this theory.

You get to finish a bachelor and you have this thought of , "am so done with school", hate to break it to my dear friends in this category. You haven't gotten anything complete yet. Yes you can find a good salaried job with the degree in play or even start up something small with it, but when it comes to information technologies and its various entities such as networking, system administration, programming, computer science, software engineering, database management, information systems and computer engineering all mentioned are not areas that one can just end with an undergraduate's degree but it will call for more work to be done for someone to actually know and recognise you as highly skilled individual in those areas until u master your art of specialisation or generalisation any of these fields and make it a point to be the best at it.

For the above when you generalise in any field you ought to know at least 50% of every entity in play but when you specialise and do professional courses in- line with your interests my brother and sister you are heading in the right direction of success and all it takes is to be determined to be the best at what you are doing and it will be easy for you to build up knowledge and experience in that field and become the better man at every turn. And I believe there are probably two simple steps to achieve this in life;

1.  Master one skill at a time make sure your the best at it by practicing always dedicate time for it.
2.  Believe and trust in yourself and GOD for the gift of life and opportunity to be able to do what you do best.

Every undergraduate in the above fields can be the best at anyone of the skills, why would you be trying so hard to looking for anyone's approval just get down on you  legs and stand tall amongst the many in your own unique way like be the outstanding programmer, networking genius, system administrator best there is. But you got to want to be the best and work to be the best at it.

And the rest of the other areas do not think i have forgotten about you but the above steps does work for any other fields not mentioned here no changes at all for they are same basic principles one can use to reach their target goals. NEVER GIVE UP my dear Friends on your dreams however big they are. Baby steps and you will be there enjoying the realities of the once called dreams.
