Checking through my page, you will discover that I've started this university series for a while now and I will like to be focusing today on the several kinds of distractions in the university and how to handle them and still maintain the good girl/boy you are from your parents house.

It's no longer news that there have been so many bad happenings in the universities of recent, taking a deep look at the causes of these happenings, we can say some of these things happened as a result of distraction from the ultimate reason they were in the university in the first place. For instance;

There was this particular news that surfaced recently, it is the story of a guy who allegedly took drugs in order to have 11 hours marathon s*x with his girlfriend, they both agreed to it and now they are both dead because they couldn't both bear it I supposed. Imagine this kind of stupid thing, how can the both of them just decide to die all in the name of pleasure, it is such a pity! You can clearly see that in this case, it is distraction that caused their untimely death, if they have focused on the main reason they came into the university, they wouldn't have both been dead by now.

There are series of distraction and intimidation in the university today, thanks to @Olasquare for bringing my attention to it in one of my comment section. Distractions are meant to happen and even sometimes, it can lead us into the state of despair and we just feel like we are worthless, imagine seeing your friends with different kinds of iPhone and it looks as if you are the only one still using Android phone among them, there is no doubt that you will feel intimidated especially when they start snapping with their phones, they might even want to introduce you to one of their internet fraudster boyfriend so they can link you up to their friends, you have a very big role to play to refuse this kind of offer, you should not let all these get to you, be able to stand your ground. Let us take a look at some of the reasons why people fall through distraction;

• Excessive love for money

• Greed and covetousness

• Discontentment

• Bad companies

• Undefined goals

• Earthly pleasure and satisfaction

All these above points revolve around the last point which is earthly pleasure and satisfaction. Everyone who is looking to derive earthly pleasure and satisfaction in university should be able to work tirelessly for it, majority of people does not want to work but they want to enjoy life, it's not done! Let's also take a look at the number of things distraction can lead to:

• Rituals

• Prostitution

• Kidnappings

• Internet frauds (Yahoo Yahoo in my country 😁)

• Robberys

• Killings

• Cultism

It's getting too rampant these days with the series of death that is happening, people are now dieing like chicken. Can't people just focus on their real goal and strife to achieve it, yes I know the country is in a state of despair but we don't have to loose hope, even children nowadays want to make quick money, we really have a lot of things to do. I've also have my own share of distraction and I will be sharing below.

During my first semester in the university, I met with a girl who live in the next flat to my flat, she this reserved babe, she breathes wealth but I always thought she was from a wealthy family. She was nice and so we got talking, anytime I'm bored, I will go over to hers and vice versa, it was going so well and I really appreciated our friendship. One day, her mom came visiting and looking at the way her mom is dressed, you can tell that she's not really the person I think she is because she was dressed like someone from an humble background. From that day, I started feeling suspicious, I start to imagine where she gets all the money she spends from.

Somehow, I got to know that her and her friends were into runs, they normally see all this big politicians who in turn gives them plenty money, they would occasionally tell me to join them that I will get to meet great people in the society who can easily help me with anything I need in the country. They will buy the latest phones, human hairs, clothes, shoes and so many other things. I almost got distracted with these things but one thing that held me was my defined goals, I knew I have so much to achieve in the future if I don't let their attitude get to me. So want I did was simple, I pray alot for God's upholding, I moved totally out of the house and I avoided her completely. Through this, I was able to overcome the distraction.

With my own story above, I hope I've been able to encourage someone who is thinking of compromising and I don't also want to list the things you can do in order to overcome distraction because you have different approach to different forms of distractions so just look for what works for you and make do of it. God will help us!
