“The family with a history of
education for three generations is unbeatable in the world.” ― Professor
M.S.Rao
My elder son, M. Ganesh Sai
successfully completed his engineering degree. He expressed his enthusiasm to
pursue higher education abroad. Since I am a career coach and counsel students
about career opportunities and write on education, I advised him as follows: “Choose
the course as per your intelligence; subjects as per your interest; and college
as per our budget.”
Most Indian students
overestimate their intelligence and underestimate their inner abilities. They go by peer pressure, not as per their
passions. They follow the crowd. They hardly introspect themselves. They are in
a hurry to execute things due to their age pressure and peer pressure. In fact,
they must take stock of their inventory such as abilities, skills, knowledge
and resources, and choose their career accordingly. It helps them enjoy their
professional life and fast-track their career. It avoids stress in the
workplace and ensures work-life balance. Above all, it provides meaning to
their life. They must look at their budget and understand the financial
constraints of their parents. They must cut the coat as per the cloth. Although
most parents want to provide better education to their children, they have
their own commitments and constraints. Hence, they may not be able to rise as
per the expectations and aspirations of their children which may often upset the
latter. Hence, children must empathize with their parents especially the financial
constraints.
Conclusion
“It’s a big world out there,
it would be a shame not to experience it.” — Jo Andrews
To ensure your career growth,
you must follow the road less traveled. Ralph Waldo Emerson rightly remarked,
“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and
leave a trail.” Emphasize more on your vertical
growth rather than on horizontal growth. To conclude, choose the course in
which you are passionate; choose the subjects in which you can excel; and above
all, choose the college which is credible and visible globally that falls
within your budget to accomplish your ambition to pursue higher education
overseas.
“So we know that it’s not
enough for us to simply encourage more people to study abroad. We also need to
make sure that they can actually afford it.” ―Michelle Obama
