Navigating career choices:Follow your vision
Jul 31, 2024 3 months agoNavigating career choices:Follow your vision As students, the most difficult decision we face is choosing a career path.Our future, financial stability and the most important mental stability depend on this choice. So,choosing the right career path from versatile options can feel overwhelming. My journey in the past one year has been nothing sort of a wild ride.The experiences and the learnings during my sophomore year of high school have taught me about myself.I didn't know what I want to do in my life.I being too lazy was not stepping out of my comfort zone.Everybody around me were pursuing their dreams of becoming doctors or engineers as a ''safe'' career path.Though my parents advised me to do this but I wasn't passionate about it. So, to rethink my career path, I started to spend some time trying to understand myself. Self assessment is a must to know one's interests, values,weaknesses. The subject I love studying, the activities I enjoy,my natural skills,my passion are the factors that influence the potential career path which makes who I am.My love for photojournalism and writing captured my mind in the most beautiful and captivating way.Photography for me is telling stories without saying words.Writing for me is showing my true emotions.I found myself. The light I sought for in the outside world was always within myself. Looking back at it, one thing that has really helped me is the ability to take brave decisions.So,embrace your journey and follow your vision.

Jul 30, 2024 3 months agoIt's okay to not to be okay sometimes. We all grow through phases in our life. Some good and some bad phases teach us the most beautiful lessons.It is life. During my sophomore year of my high school I was contemplating suicide.I couldn't see any other path.I was trying to maintain my appearance that everything was okay.And then I began to isolate myself from my friends,family and stay in a dark room always to hide myself from the world.Gradually my nights became sleepless,my eyes became numb,my head became heavy and I fainted.Suicide seemed to be the only escape for me. At that worst situation,my father gave me this amazing book-Dear stranger,I know how you feel by Ashish Bagrecha. The author hasn't written words but emotions.This book has 30 poems and 30 letters.I can guarantee that if anyone read each letter per day,something magical will happen with him.After reading this book, I felt I am not the only one who is suffering,there are people who need support.Ashish had a panic attack.He fought against the odds and won.This book is all about his journey of hope and healing.It teaches us about pain,anxiety, emptiness,negativity, self harm and also health, healing and hope-a journey towards positive life.After reading each letter you'll get a postive vibe.Ashish felt that souls like us deserve to be loved.There is no one with me who listens to me,who supports me but this book held my hand and will stay with me forever. Thanks to Ashish Bagrecha for this life changing book and to my parents.I survived.
