My experience as a graduate in Nigeria has been an amazing one, to be positive yet stressful to be candid. I am not sure I signed up for the stress of living as an adult and maybe I wasn't informed or I did not pay attention to the life of the people ahead of me.
Caught in the understanding of creating a responsible life, I have been saddled with a whole lot of things happening in my life. Balancing my work, social, and relationship life as well, and most of the time, I feel like I am neglecting some important aspects of my life.

I'm not sure if everyone feels that way as an adult or if I'm just overwhelmed but there are many aspects of my life that I am not spending enough time on. And those areas give me a whole lot of concern and it overwhelms me.
The first aspect of my life that needs more of my attention is my relationship with God, most of the time I feel I am not connecting more with God. He is the one that gives essence to my essence, so connecting with Him should be on a deeper level, and that I am working on.
The second aspect of my life that needs more attention is, my personal goals, visions, dreams, and aspirations. I am at this stage of my life where I am working on becoming a better version of myself, creating that amazing life I desire, and becoming a high flyer in my industry. Although I have been working on this for a long time, I feel it needs more of my time to achieve the result I desire.
Also, I am not spending enough time playing. Yes! Playing with friends and family, socializing, and grooving.

Naija problems no dey finish! And it's better to just rest and relax when you feel the need to. So another thing I am not spending time on is relaxing, not being too worked up about the things happening around me, not being worked up about my dreams and aspirations, my plans, just resting, vibing, and grooving with friends.
And lastly and importantly! I feel I am not spending more time on networking. This is a crucial aspect of my life I need to work on. Your Network is your net worth. Building a good network of friends, mentors, and partners has been an issue for me. I always have that feeling of going out there, putting myself out there, and networking with people that align with my dreams and aspirations, people that can aid me in life.
Step out of my comfort zone and live above every self-inflicted limitation. But lately, I am working on my mindset, growing my mind to receive the best life has for me, and yielding my mind to abundance
In conclusion, life is in phase, and prioritizing my life is surely going to give me an edge and not get me overwhelmed by the stress of life. At the moment, my priority is God, networking, creating an amazing life, living in the present, and taking significant decisions that my future will be pleased with.
