[ Off-Topic ] A ROAD LESS TRAVELLED by

 

MY BACKGROUND :

Society: "You are so good in studies. Then why you are choosing Commerce ?" 10th grader me : " I like Commerce more" :) MISCONCEPTION I HAD : "Science students are more successful" REALITY: Few days back, I saw a recent IIT-Bombay graduate asking for any job available since he lost his job due to COVID19 and at the same time many Commerce professionals doing much better ! I have seen my friends in science crying over their choices. I am very happy. Commerce has become my love. I studied it with love and devotion, while my friends in science are crying over their choice. MORAL OF THE STORY : Your stream, your college and society's opinions can never decide your future. You can be an artist making millions and you can be an astronaut earning peanuts. IT DEPENDS ON YOU ! QUALITY OF YOUR WORK. I always thank my 16-yearold-self for my decision. 1) Listen to your Intuition. It's always right. Deep inside your heart knows it all, what's good for you and what isn't. 2) Do what you can do the best. If a person doesn't like science, he can never do it wholeheartedly no matter how hard he'd try. 3) Your future entirely depends on you. Society won't pay your bills. Society won't fulfill your dreams. YOU WILL. Remember its your life, not of society's. "We should know so later we don't lament. After playing our roles in life, We take with ourselves our own conscience, Not society's views and comments."
