Hello friends, First of all, a big congratulations to all who have got a placement offer in your college and also congratulations to those who are planning to start something on their own. Those who couldn’t make it don’t worry there are a lot more in life is yet to come, spend time to improve yourself, Start by resume, you can refer to my previous blog for resume to stand out.

In the coming few months you will experience a great transformation in your life and for that, I know you must be very excited. here are something that will help you in the transition and make you a better person.


Opportunity to learn new things

Don’t think that you have completed your education and you are no more student, Remember actual learning will starts when you complete your formal education.

Enjoy the transformation and also learn something new every day, First few years only focus on learning, don’t limit yourself or do not bound your thinking to particular technology or technology stack, Knowledge is interrelated whatever you will learn will be useful in your entire life.

Don’t be same be better, whatever you have learned try to improve every day, not only technically but everything you need to become a good human being say welcome to it.


Build network

You will meet a lot of people, add the first point (learn from them) along with also try to build a good connection with them your colleagues, juniors, seniors ask them doubts question whenever you stuck, do not hesitate to ask your doubt, good people are always there to answer.

Try to find mentors, they will help you in your career growth. Someone said If you want to become a winner surround yourself with winners. Create a good circle around you.


Personal finance

The best part of this transition is that you will start earning, First paycheque is always memorable I know everyone has already decided what to do with your first income, It's great, go ahead and make this a lifelong memory.

From your consecutive income, make good habits on how to manage your personal finance. Personal finance this is something we never learn in our school (also college, we call it school) but it is the most important thing to learn, and everyone should learn it, there are plenty of sources and learn from people who are good at it.

Make a habit to pay yourself and spend less, you can save this or even invest it, and enjoy the power of compounding. The early you start to invest the more likely you can become financially independent in your life.

At first small savings will not make you wealthy but it will develop your habit to understand personal finance. Don’t limit your spending, anything that makes you happy, that gives you peace of mind, go for it spend your money on it but save a certain percentage regularly.


Stay connected with your family and friends

Thanks to work from home, you will get a chance to working from home. But in case if you will require to relocate, always keep in mind to stay connected with your family and friends, take the time to give them a call. Share your feelings and celebrate every movement.

There are a lot more, but I tried to make it short definitely we will discuss more things later. please share your thoughts in the comments will like to make a positive change.


Enjoy! and feel free to comment with your thoughts.
