THERE ARE SEVERAL COURSES THAT ONE CAN CHOOSE APART FROM ENGG & MEDICINE
Choose a career that you like and you would never have to work for a single day in your life. Allan Border, the Australian captain after winning the World Cup in 1987 was asked how he felt. To which, he said, “I am one of those lucky guys, who gets paid for what I like to do. And that is play cricket.”
Choosing a career though is not so easy. For some, a lucky few know exactly what they want to do in life very early in life. Like Ruskin Bond, who at the tender age of 15 knew that he wanted to be a writer. It was not easy but if you stick to your goals success is bound to come your way.
There is a tendency among the majority of the population to see that their children pursue a career in engineering and medicine. Nothing wrong in that but if the child does not have an aptitude and is least interested, he or she would never be successful.
