Not doing things I loved. Or rather not identifying what can truly can make me miss lunch, dinner, b’fast, sleep out of my own volition and choice. Apart from that, there are no regrets.

Absolutely no regrets. Luckily from the day one I started my career I have always worked in an environment which gave me quite good life and fame besides very good challenges to prove my calibre. And here at Learnhub I am able to find people who care my family as well. So no regrets at all.

  Come on, I’m sure it’s not that bad. Whatever you’re doing, even if it’s not what you like best, it’s what you’re supposed to do, and you’re probably good at it (or at least better than you think). Success can be measured in many different ways. You should never be ashamed that you’re still living, I think every person has a reason to be alive and if you just follow life, you’ll fulfill your destiny (whatever it may be). And if things are really that bad, you can change it- go back to school and study something else, it’s never too late, or just start looking for a new job. Just be optimistic, things will pick up.

  Dear saurabh,
  
  You can always come back to India and do an MBA from a premier institute here. But before that I think you must complete MS in the USA and definitely this will enhance your chances of doing an MBA from premier B-School back here in India. But again, for whatsoever reason it may be if I am in your seat I would like to pursue my MBA from a decent B-School in the USA itself rather than in India.

I’m a post graduate in Music Vocal by fault. Since +1 only my subjects included Music Vocal,Music Instrumental and Elective English as my mother pushed me to persue music instead of commerce because I was missing classes due to my singing competitions ans she suggested commerce and music have no relation. My other interests are designing,cooking,and doing some innovative work. I run a workshop where I prepare decorative gift packings,presentations,etc. After almost completing my post graduation I have realised that I can’t take music as my career as I won’t b able to earn enough in this field. It is just a hobby. Now I’m planing to change my field and also for foriegn studies. But still bemused that what should I chose as my career field? Should I opt for Interior designing,hotel management,general business or something else? And I want to go for masters course. Also if I remain in India what option should I go for? I think its too late and my life is ruined.
