Is it okay to be clueless of what one wants to do in life? How can one know what excites them to jump off the bed and go for it? Some might say it's okay if you are a fifteen year old and deciding for which branch you would like to take up. But what if you are a graduate from a middle class family who got into a good college through educational loan and still haven't been placed in a good company? How do you repay the loan? It's not only the financial crunch that one has to go through, it can also wreck a person emotionally
Even if you get a job that pays you well but makes you slog the entire time leaving you with no or very less time for yourself, what do you do then? For some, job satisfaction is a myth. For them it is a reality that one has to live with. Most of the time one has to settle for something that he/she never imagined doing it, for the next 40 years.This not only forms a major hiccup to the capabilities of a person but also impedes a person from growing as a human being. With no time in hand for oneself, it's just the wake up-go to office-come-back-sleep routine that follows throughout the week. It's the monotony that kills person.
Time and again people have challenged the conventional road that some choose because either they don't want to leave their comfort zone or fear ending up with nothing in life or are made to choose their path by their peers under societal pressure. There are people who took chances and did what they wanted to do in life. There are some people still trying to achieve what they want to constantly beating all odds.
