Live thru the transition....

Well! The time has come for all of us to shift from College to Corporates. What it takes to be successful in getting into a corporate and further staying in it? The requirements are pretty different than those for the semester exams. Thinking out of the box, real time scenarios, experimentation and so on.. These are some of the key tasks one will be doing inside the corporates. Before that, there is something happening between this college life and the life with the companies. Yes, the transition.....
How it sounds:
Some welcome this transition with a broad smile, as it gives them an opportunity to try their hands with some real world problems. For some others, its a sudden act of "independence" which affects them, because they might have done everything under heavy scrutinizing and lack of this puts them under heavy pressure. Whatever may be the case, the transition is sure for all. Well, how to go about this? Primarily, a change of attitude is required. See every problem you study as a real world problem or at least associate them with a real world entity. Imagine some solution that could solve the problem even in the real world.
Learn the other way:
While learning the subjects, learn those subjects that really interests you with some passion which will carry you forward. Select your domain where you want to work, because it gives you two advantages. First, it gives you job satisfaction. Second, it enables you to deliver the best project as you love your job. Consider the practical aspects of the subjects and enquire whats really happening rather than just mugging up!!
Finally:
Successful people are those who grow through this transition and gain as much experience as possible through their projects. Mere theoretical knowledge will do no good. Projects lend you a helping hand when you want to explore things and don't take projects "a take it for granted aspect". Hope u enjoy this transition.. good luck!!!

Relations Vs Education

Prologue..
Relations and Education, I think are the two most important factors which affects most of the people throughout this World. This is because both these can contradict each other under many occasions, and even land you into a dilemma when it comes to decision making. Education ......Well, it all started when man started understanding the Nature. The deeper he learnt about it, the more interested he became and the more he learnt. This, on one hand enabled him to create a better place to live in.
Employee and Employer...
Then came the period when people started a concept of "working". Under this, people work for somebody and get their equivalent amount either as gold or as any other commodity. Then, the World's population increased and there was a competition for earning this so called "job". It was at this time, the concept of "evaluating a person if he is employable" started and then came learning what other people have done already, which is defined as "EDUCATION". With this trend, people started losing their originality since they became more and more of the other person than being themselves.
The Link....
You may wonder, how this affects human relations. Well, I ve the answer. Initially, people done their own business and exchanged their goods for goods that they are insufficient of. But, since "working for others" has aslo started, there arose the competition among the masses, then followed, pride, jealosy, egoism and all the evil that men shouldn't posses. So, man who paid lot of interest to human relations, now diverted towards "winning over others". The "care for all" concept is gone all over now, retorting back to the books. False relations started growing just for the sake of getting things done and the true love perished.
The Panacea...
Is there a solution for this? Well, every problem has a solution, as it should be. Do not confuse education with relationships. Be, who you are when you are with the people around you. When it comes to learning, develop an attitude that what you learn is surely going to serve this society. Because, something that doesn't help this society improve isn't worth learning. From the time immemorial, the aim of education was to make people happy by understanding nature. Tats why, we study weather conditions to fore-warn the people of impending cyclone, have thousands of sensors to indicate forest fires to save trees and wild animals and so on... What I say here may sound too elementary, but this is something everyone has seems to forgotten.
Please Do This....
Finally, everyone of us is going to move into a service oriented industry that caters to the needs of people. Whatever project you do, remember that you are doing it for a same person like you, because its the general public who is going to get benefitted by it. You can see the relationship thread running here. What I say here is, education is meant to keep relations intact rather to alienate people. Don't argue over unimportant aspects of education with peers or even with professional. Speak up only if its worth arguing such that the result is an enhancement in human relations. No big deal, the World is meant to be happy always, tats why we learn..... and this learning must make us happier and happier as we learn something deeper and deeper..think on............
