Being a third sem lis student, I always see confused faces around me.. Almost every other person talks only and only about future plans, entrances, career options, jobs, placements and everything related to his future..

Sick and bored of hearing the lines " Kahaan phas gaye yaar.. pata nahi kya hoga hamara..."
It was just a month back when even I was kinda worried ,and a close friend said..." Look, you haven't lost your decision making ability..Dont think so much about your career or your future..Dont worry.. Just explore all options...Some day, something great will strike to you, once you take a decision, start working, be focussed and trust me, you'll rock !"
We all have this tendency to think a lot about future..we become addicted to it in a way, we keep on thinking about it all the time.. We day dream, we over think, we over analyse and ultimately the result of useless analysis and useless thinking is- more confusion, more anxiety, more worries, more tension.......


At the end, no matter what, in spite of all the hardships, in spite of all the terrible tough phases, life will move on...

Ultimately..Koi na jaane apna future kya hoga...then why the hell do we need to think of it.... All I know is that, two years later, my life would be different, with new people, new faces, new places.. As of now, I am already into a new phase, really excited and enthusiastic, ready to work upon things and devote time to myself.....thats it
I am listening to my heart, I feel that,wherever I'll go, whatever I'll do, I'll give it my best shot..


P.S. This is a random story, written without any planning, in simple words.... This is just an attempt to express what I feel.... and finally its dedicated to all those people who dont enjoy their lives being worried about the future... Live in your present.. Love yourself.. Love people around you.. Love your life!!!

I got 14th position in State in the BSc in Botany and then I choose the MLISc programme. In those days my friends used to laugh at me for choosing the MLISc. Now most of my friends who used to have a good carrier are unemployed. Though I dont think myself as a successful, but at-least I am in a better position than that of my colleagues. The moral of the story is: Ok, you can guess.

Do you know? Your this simple story is shared across all major social platform and by tomorrow it will reach more than 20,000 people. So, you are already breaking the barriers. I hope you can at-least have a better carrier than me.

Its not always easy to love urself and ur life but I salute to ur enthusiasm and spirit keep it up ur r doing a good job enspire the person like me in this way.Thanks .

There was 25 students in my M.Lib batch, 100% students got the jobs in my batch. More than 15 students among them got Government jobs, so we can not say that LIS is not a good profession. 

I think LIS is providing more employment opportunities for the students...............

so don't worry ..... 

How I motivate myself and help myself in this challenging era------

Take pride in what you do. In my petty attempts to be humble I often downplay the positive results of my work.  But all this does is give me less satisfaction for what I accomplished.  We should be proud of our talents and use that pride to keep our actions fresh and effective.

  • Mix it up when you can. I’m a big fan of routine as I know it can help with efficiency, but it can also be a great way to get in a rut.  Mix up the way you do things when you can and try to see things from different perspectives when possible.  Not only will this help keep it fresh, but can be a great way to keep your creativity sharp.
  • NEVER stop innovating! No matter what you do or who you work for, never stop thinking outside the box.  Never stop trying new things.  Many of us have a tendency to find what works and then stick with it, but this only leads to boredom and a stifled imagination.  If you want to keep your career fresh then you need to always keep one foot outside the proven path.

Dear Ganesh
Your post portrays your mixed bag of feelings, emotions, confusions etc. all at the same time in varying measures. I guess it is common with most of us not just in our profession but other professions too. This is a basic human quality. This may be a result of cluttering your mind with too many things (?) What I feel is, one should stay positive, enthusiastic, cheerful, focused, wear good temperament and display tenacity. You pay attention to these virtues and your future will automatically take care of itself. Remember, life is full of choices and you are given complete freedom to make the same [like remaining positive or negative, happy or unhappy, decisive or indecisive etc]. The choice you now make, will decide or shape your career/future.
Have faith in yourself, trust your instincts. All will be O.K.

Good luck
