We often find ourselves at a crossroads in our career. I too am in a similar situation where I have to choose between an array of fields. I have to be specific, a field I want to venture into and then stick to it like forever. It's easier said than done. I chose Bachelor's program-me in computers three years back. It was an easy choice. I wanted to do a professional course. I wanted to be called a professional. and also I have dreamed of settling abroad, in some foreign land. Yes I fancy that.I wanted to do Master's in same program-me later. But now I'm so confused. Confusion has started pouring in because of suggestions from lay-men. Some people tell me to do Master's in Business Administration(MBA). This degree is so much in demand. Some tell me to apply for a job and start earning as I'm old enough. And others tell me to study seriously to clear my entrance exams!! I cant choose!! I can't focus.
It was never like this...I was so sure 'bout my career. Being a young woman they also tell me to keep in mind that the profession I choose should not eat away my time. I should be able to devote time to my family when time comes. What also bothers me is the dynamic working environment. The pressure to re-invent oneself on a daily basis. Such worries thwart my dreams.
I am a dreamer and that too a proud one. My dreams make me feel so rich. The journey between germination and fruition of ideas is so long. It needs a lot of perseverance and patience. as if I'm supposed to be a demi-God...partially potent, partially omnipresent! But my mentor Dr. Daisaku Ikeda tells me that these worries are a part and parcel of a student's life. They are normal. I have been chanting to direct my life on the right path to victory based on wisdom.
To conclude, I'll quote lines from my favorite song By AirBourne...
My minds made up, I'm leaving today
Come hell or high water, I will break these chains
Diggin and clawing and scratching and kicking my way;
Back to the top I will fight for the light of day;
Gonna find the way yeah
