Hello everyone, hope you are doing very well today. Welcome to @Hivenaijah weekly engagement #66; it is so good to be here again.

Habits are in-built behaviours that are formed or inherited and they can be good or bad. Habits are very easy to form but they always very hard to break. There are people who always feel bad about the bad habits they have, but find it very difficult to get rid of them because of how hard it is to break habits. That is why it is very good to form and have good habits.

I remember that while growing with my parents, I had the habit of not keeping things well. My parents would talk and scold me on this but I did not change from it. I would get back from wherever I went to, and I would keep my clothes any how and don't care about them. My mother used to tell me that, whatever I do myself that I would do the same thing to others. Even when my parents were always scoldings on this, I would always not listen to them. It got to the point when I did not know how to take of my initials and that became very bad as something bad happened to me in the university.

After I finished my admission process, of course we know that any document you are given is always very important as they will be needed for last clearance before you can graduate from the university. I was give so many documents and I put them in a file as others did.

I knew that those documents are very important, but I did not understand when and how I missed some of them. I remember that I used to keep them in a clay bag and would put them in my box.

There were times I would see some of my documents folded, and I would tell myself that I would redo them before my clearance, and redoing a document in the university is always very costly. So I used to tell myself that I would redo them before I cleared out of the school.

So this time, I missed my authority to pay, and that is something very important during the clearance. When I went to redo it in the school, I was referred to the next campus, and when I went there, the woman that is always in charge of doing the documents was not on seat. I was told that she would come back to the office in three months, and I needed the documents in two days, and without that document, I would not have graduated from school.

Dad was just there telling me that I should come back home with my result, and there was me not finding my authority to pay. I got so restless and tired. I wanted to cry. Had it been, I knew I would have been careful. I would have lost my five years of commitment in school; I got so worried.

So I went into the office again and told the man everything—how I needed the documents. So he told me that the only thing was to look for the woman for her to sign it for me. So I did everything possible to reach the woman; I needed to go to her house and meet her to sign the document for me, but it took time and a lot of money. What I would have just kept in place and then used later for my clearance.

It is very good to be careful; do not form bad habits that will hurt you tomorrow.
