START PLANNING YOUR CAREER

FROM THIS DAY ONWARDS

Journey of a thousand miles begins with small steps

Forget about how you define this to others for now, and

just think for a bit about how you define your career to

yourself. What does it mean to you to have a career? Is it

just your job? Is it something you do to make a living? Is it

what you do for money?

Your career is the journey you take to reach your

goals throughout your life! What are your goals in your

life?? Are you still thinking, then believe me, you haven't

achieved your goals yet and there is a long way to go

and you are unaware of what you are....

You must remember that just

completing any course does not

guarantee a job & lifelong satisfaction.

One must look for different components

that can add values to one’s profile.

Certain careers are preferred over the others, as they are

deemed to be more lucrative / respected / successful. As a result,

many students sit for entrance exams under immense pressure.

Other courses have high cut offs where students who are equally

bright but have scored moderate marks get left behind. Thus,

their course choice leaves them struggling to barely manage the

course which they have joined. Those who manage to pass the

graduate course are again at crossroads as when they join the

work force- they are dissatisfied and unhappy. All this arises

because the students do not do any career planning and choose

institutes giving little weight age to the course or choose a course

giving a little weight age to their own strengths and capabilities.

The surest and shortest way to do this is by empowering each and

every student by helping them discover their inherent talent, their

unique aptitude combination, and thereby guiding them on to the

right career path and helping them make the RIGHT career choice.

It’s time to say good-bye to all the confusions, tensions and

apprehensions about your future.

“If you can dream it, you can achieve It”. - Zig Zagler

Lots of alternatives

Each alternative competes with the other

Choose your career based on personality, academics and desire

your likes and preferences.
