NOte:fEW ThiNgs are InSpired From A book And Most It is My Experience from the Past 20 odd years!!!
When I was a kid - growing up in a middle-class family,in the interiors of chennai,in the middle of 1990s,parents dished out a familiar plate of advice to me : Ashwath Get good percentage, go to college, and pursue a profession that offers a decent standard of living. Its not the matter of intrest & its quite mandatory for a guy to posses an engineering degree no matter from which college, get placed in a s/w company and earn money,this form of my life style was figured by my parents when i was just 10 yrs old, soon these words became a sign of "mantra"to me.The reason for this change is quite simple as computers appeared on desktops and CEOs on magazine covers, the youngsters who were really good or not (as in my case) at math and science chose high tech, while others were considered big time losers, thinking that success was spelled "software engineer".
People gave this cadre of professionals an enduring, if somewhat wonky, name: knowledge workers. they are these people who get paid for putting to work what one learns in school rather than for their physical strength or manual skill.What distinguished members of this group and enabled them to reap society's greatest rewards, was their "ability to acquire and to apply theoretical and analytic knowledge." And its proven that any of us could join their ranks.My dad once told that All i need to do was study hard and play by the rules of the meritocratic regime. That is the path to professional success and the so called personal fulfillment. Till now we have been living rather fooling ourselves by generalizing issues,still we are guessing where its gonna lead us,wats the solution lets see the future in the next part......
