As a student myself who once stood on the threshold of starting her journey towards building the best suited and lucrative job for herself, I was also struck in the quandary of ‘school ke baad kya?’ What college to choose, what course to pursue, should I start the coaching for competitive exams from the very moment or wait for a year to assess what I am inclined towards, were a few of the multiple dilemmas I faced then. Every time I had these predicaments, I then wondered why having a career goal is important in our life? Why do people keep on asking after every class what are your plans for the future? If I have already decided what I want to become in my life at a very small age, then I think there’s no point in exploring my interests, my abilities, my skills because according to society it will always be like “aare beta tum to civil services mein Jaane ke liye keh rhe the na? Uska kya hua? Nhi karni aab tayyari?” And whatever I have decided, I should follow it blindly, not seeking the various other options which could be appropriate for me or which could bring out the best in me, isn’t it?

I have noticed that these days some people are engaged in a multitude of activities and have more than one niche which, I must say, has also inspired me to turn my hands-on things. Once I was talking to one of my friends and I asked him, ''Why are you involved in so many different things? You are a content creator, you even write, and what is it that you can't do? To which he replied that you never know when one of your knacks might give up on you so you should be always trying new things and learning at every stage of your life because that is what we humans are meant to do; to discover new skills and do something great with them. And I can’t agree more.
