How does your Future look like?

Hi Readers,

Today I am going to help you with this article, because I know a lot of you all can relate to this. This is a question we ask ourselves, people ask us or sometimes Interviewers ask us. A question which breaks hell into our minds. I know it is hard to decide about your future, and what you want to be because we are in world where our society is shaping our thoughts, our parents are being a lot typical because they were brought up in a different generation. Being independent is out of question for a lot of people because of their family, if not their parents, we have a bunch called our relatives, who likes shoving their asses into anything and everything. Pardon my language.

I was in a phase where I wanted to decide where I saw myself in ten years. And this was perfectly during my teens, 14 to be exact. I had just finished 10^th grade, and I had to choose if I wanted to pursue Computer Science which was something I have always been good at, or if I wanted to take arts and science, because I could do something that I am passionate about, which is take up Psychology, English or Hotel Management. Not many people know this about me, but I have been an enthusiast of food, and this I am sure anyone close to me would know. I love cooking, not just for me but for others too, because for me the way to someone’s heart is by food. When the tummy is happy, the heart is too. I had to decide, and it sure was a big decision.

Before I continue, let me break the suspense, I chose engineering. But I regret it not today, not yesterday, but every single day of my life. Not because, I didn’t enjoy it, but because I believe that this is not my passion and I would have felt happier doing something I loved and wanted to do. The reason I chose engineering was because, kids from the 90’s can relate to this. We grew up in a society where if someone took arts and science, they were kids choosing the easy way out and it hurt my ego. I was too proud to be one of those kids, but I learnt it the hard way that the society talks today about you, and tomorrow someone else is the topic.

My piece of advice from this article would be to anyone and everyone how is confused about making decisions about their lives to just close your eyes, take a deep breath and think what they want in life. I know sometimes money dominates passion. People do the other job just because it pays you more. Well in that case, luxury becomes your passion. It drives you to grow and grow. Choose whatever pleases you, but don’t let anyone else take that decision for you because they won’t stick around till you blame them for ruining your life. A life with questions starting with “what if?” is a life of misery. You can trust me on that.

If you think someone or something is holding you back from your passion, fight for it. Don’t just argue, fight for it. Take a stand and chase that passion anywhere it leads you to. That way, in the future you will have a big bright smile on your face every day when you wake up for work or whatever that you do.
