The problem statement we fail to address

-Tonny *k

but if you can anywhere relate yourself to it then you are leading a life full of compromise. My close friend had always had a knack for accounts; his talents lay on the entrepreneurial line. His board exams went thoroughly well and he wanted to do C.A. His parents were obviously against this line of action. They made him join M.P.C (not because his talents lay there, no because it is a better secure life course). He reluctantly joined an engineering course and the example I mentioned prior to this is his life.

So, Indian students are going way ward in choosing their branch of specialization itself in a very wrong fashion. Indian's thus don't have any respect for a job. Most of them don't enjoy their work;

Well I have one but many of are not going to like it. Be passionate that’s all. If you ask a counselor or even a parent they will tell you to plan way ahead, to start studying from day 1 and stuff like that. Frankly, that does help if you’re a geek and have no life.

DO SMART WORK,

NOT HARD-WORK.

Try learning for the need to apply this god-forsaken knowledge somewhere, never do it for exams. Many of us hate mathematics. We look at calculus and start question as to who invented these draconian formulas. That's because you still didn't figure the fun of physics and math’s. Take your phone for example, we have many Fourier series functions representing a phone-call but this you are not aware of. These codes functions are what engineers write for developing new tech-gadgets for simulating the prototype before market-release. This is what you would be doing had you taken engineering as stream and hated calculus. Thereby hating your job, then disappointment strikes.

End of the day, all that matters is that if at all you are satisfied. For being satisfied, do what you love, love what you do. Keep innovating in whatever field you are. Keep thinking and read more, this broadens your horizons on any given topic. And don't give a damn about anyone that criticizes you. You are the pioneer of your own fate; you are the champion of your own destiny.
