Choice of a profession and career is great importance. On the right and timely choice of a career depends much success in life. It decides the future success or failure. The fruits of indecision are bitter. Similarly, wrong decision is also undesirable. Therefore, one should try to choose one's career as early as possible. It should be determined by the time one takes one's first board examination.

This is the age of much competition. Life is now really complex. Things are moving fast. There are a great variety of career and professions. It makes the matter worse. One feels confused and bewildered in choosing a right career. The lack of proper counselling and guidance worsens the situation. The young students find themselves groping in the dark. As a result of all these, there is much unemployment and frustration. It also mean lot of waste of money, time and energy. The students should take the help of elders, teachers and professionals in deciding their careers. They should choose their careers according to their aptitude and resources.

Youth people are ambitious, impatient and eager to achieve good positions. They want to become high officials, executives and have top positions without considering their qualifications, skills etc. This is a wrong attitude. One should be realistic. Making castle in the air is of no help up as a mere casual artist or a help boy. Such over-ambitions lead to disillusionment and unhappiness.

It is a better to choose a Career at the high school level than go for higher studies aimlessly. One should go for a vocational course at this stage. It will help one to stand on one's feet in 23 years of time. There are many training institutions, polytechnics and professional colleges. There are many careers, professions and vocations to choose from. There are teaching, engineering, medical, law, technical, business, trade, computer application career, government employment, positions in Police and army etc. One can start one's own shop, factory, workshop or small scale industry. Then one can choose acting, commercial arts, fashion designing, advertising etc. But each of these requires special aptitude, training and resources. One may have proper qualifications and aptitude for a career of a doctor or engineer. One cannot choose it as his career.

Choice of a career is not simply a matter of likes and dislikes. Financial resources play a very important role in deciding to choose a far humbler career. Change if career amidst the stream may prove risky. It is not wise to change career now and then. Therefore, select your career carefully and wisely, once decided, stick to your decision. Use all your energy and resources to obtain your aim. 

One can take to politics if one has aptitude for public life. Politics is not always dirty. It is a profession of hard labour and perseverance. There are many ups and downs. You should be well prepared for all that. If you have strong optimism, as ambition for fame and prepared to face the worst, you are best suited for politics. If you have aptitude for books, reading, quiet life and studies, you should choose teaching. It is a noble profession. You can then become a teacher, lecture or a professor. If you have enough money and resources and want to grow rich, you can choose business as your career.

Once you have chosen your career, it is not possible to retrace your steps. If you do, you are a great looser. While choosing a profession, you stand at a cross-road. Once a choice is made, there is no escape. Therefore, be practical, logical and reasonable in choosing your profession. This is a crucial choice. Take into consideration your liking, resources, qualifications etc, before deciding the course of your future life.

I was told that there was nothing to worry. The two mounds for embankments were strong enough to project the village. In the evening, the sky was completely covered with thick black clouds. Soon it began to rain in torrents.  As soon as the rain stopped we went to the river. From quite distance we could hear the roaring wate...
