Good read ! However, there is no denying the fact that a good education gives you an edge over others, but career is of course a different matter altogether, and one has to be flexible !
That's a good link I must say. Moreover, I also wish to add that there are many parents who are ambitious and literally force their kids into career that they couldn't achieve themselves.
In a temple, where a powerful baba used to predict the future of the people considerabley correctly, I saw a woman asking him if her son would be come an engineer. And you know how old the son was - just 13.
Basically, one needs to choose between money and happiness. This is no doubt a myth as given in the link that what you have passion for may not necessarily give you more money. But you will definitely get more pleasure in doing what you have passion for. If you have already enough money, you may go for your choice job even if you get less money. There are also some who do honorary job on Rupee one nominal salary.
Very useful information.

People always confused about their children's career.

I am sure many people will choose to be happy with the money :laugh: :laugh: I also agree that passion gives ultimate happiness and I have experienced through my online work. But I found that, that kind of happiness didn't stop me from getting hungry.

What we need is balancing between different objectives. Earning money and passion for certain type of work also need be balanced.

True. If one combines with his passion that's close to one's heart with dedication, one can be successful in career. Most of the people blindly follow a career that's in vogue ignoring the fact that such career chasing is bound to be a failure in the long run

I just made a light hearted comment initially. But I agree with you. I have a lot of passion for cricket and currently I am covering the IPL for my client as well. So, my passion is giving me bucks too. What more can I ask for?

That's what exactly one is supposed to do. Its known as SWOT analysis. That is finding your own strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and taking a step in the right direction. Such people will always win.

I agree that job satisfaction too is as important as earning money, without which you lose motivation to better yourself ! You need to have a goal in life, otherwise people like Ambani,Tata and Sunil Mittal can sit at home and enjoy life, but they put in such a lot of hard work...

I found a chartered Accountant in Tamilnadu , who left his lucrative profession to do a work that's close to his heart, Farming. A.R . Rehman, the only double Oscar winner from India dropped out from school to embrace a work that's close to his heart. And Bill gates is another example among many.
At this juncture I cannot but recall that famous saying of Confucius, " Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life. "
That's true being highly educated does not guarantee that one will get a job. I have seen the toppers in my engineering batch struggled to get a job while the students who passed with difficulty got good jobs just after completing the degree. :blink:

Very true, once you like what you are doing, chances are that you will give out your best and try to excel in it, thats why it is all the more reason for parents never to force their children to do something for which they have no inclination...

Unfortunately, this is not happening. Parents are interested in making their children slaves of their own unfulfilled desires, least bothering about the fact that their children do have their own aspirations and ambitions.
