JUGGLING

 When most of you clicked this article you were probably wondering what the writer meant by juggling. did they mean the actual juggling done in the circus or the one that involved managing your time and activities properly. It is the latter, this article is here to help a lot of students who are finding it hard to juggle the activities they find themselves involved in while in school.

Over 90% of students are involved in more than one activity or duty or the other, some might be academic activities and social activities, while others might be academic activities and extra curricular activities and in that 90% of students there's another 90% that struggle to find a balance between it all and this article is here to help you solve some of your problems.

The first step to having a balanced life is arranging and listing your priorities and making sure the first thing on your list is your academics because that is your main purpose for being in Leadcity University and the second thing should be both your physical and mental health because without the two you cannot achieve anything.

The second step after making your list of priorities is to create a daily schedule by making a planner. Having the next thing you need to do written down neatly in front of you helps relieve the tension on what to do next and how to go about it.

The third and most important step is to not overwork yourself by being involved in too many, the networking and benefits might seem worth it until the end results don't pose much benefit compared to strain and stress you will put yourself under.

The moment you don't have a balance with all the things you find yourself doing you'll realize that there will be a slow yet very steady decline in the things you do, you'll find yourself at one point doing less instead of more and losing the zeal to do anything. So, wouldn't it be better to do what you can find yourself able to handle?

Take it from us, when you are able to juggle and balance your personal, academic and social life properly you find yourself being more productive!

It's a new dispensation

 It's August 1st today. A whole month gone from the second half of the year. It sort of feels like everything is ending and most times we just want to hold on to what we have and stay with it for as long as possible. But what if everything ending isn't so bad. What if that door closing is going to be the best thing to happen to you, what if that chapter closing opens you up to the best chapter of your life, the page ending is ending critical challenges.  Every now and then, change is inevitable and guess who else just closed a chapter!!!  Drum rolls please!!! It is Lead City Voices- the voice for change in Lead City University. Just as the 2024/2025 academic session came to a close, so did an era in Lead City Voices. The highly anticipated hand-over ceremony took place on the 10th July, 2025. It was of course bubbling with laughter, memories, a lot of intellect shared and more that only those who were present can attest to that.  Of course the Lead City V...

Celebrating girls

Image
Friday was national girlfriend's day and Sunday was apparently national sister's day. Who honestly knows when all these days started coming into play? But what's important is the celebration of women in our lives. Female friendships are often overlooked, insulted, claiming women are problematic, stressful, take things too seriously just because they care about their friendships enough to put emotions into it.  Seeing people celebrate females they have relationships with, either: platonic, romantic or even familial, it brings joy to the heart and keeps hope in society. And to the tea, trust the gossip mill to have kept running,the weary eyes were out; watching for the deliveries, the money bouquets, the roses and the posts. We saw you all. To all the singles and singlets, our sincere sympathies 😂😂 and to the understanding girlfriends even more sympathy graced to you.  This is to the girlies, the girlfriends and the sister. Happy girlfriends' day🥂, you are...

The Beginning of my Journey Assistant General Secretary II of Lead City Voices Stepping into the role of Assistant General Secretary II of Lead City Voices has been one of the most defining moments of my journey at Lead City University.

In this role, my goal is to keep our communication smooth, our records well-organised, and to support projects that will make Lead City Voices even stronger and more impactful. I want to help create an environment where every voice is heard and where we can keep raising the bar together. This position has already taught me so much from better time management to working closely with people who inspire me daily. It has helped me grow in confidence, leadership, and service. I’m thankful for this journey and excited for all that’s ahead for Lead City Voices.
