What do you want to be when u grow up?!

April 4, 2008

How many of us were not bugged by the question when we were kids?!! One thing that particularly interests me is the answers: Doctor, Engineer, Actor, Singer, Writer etc. etc…

What do you want to be when u grow upIsn’t that too early to decide.. How can you want to be an Engineer at the age when you don’t really understand what is it all about… and no, being a Doctor doesn’t really mean prescribing medicines to sick people.

Even if we know what all it takes to be what we want to, shouldn’t we consider our Interests and Acumen while making a career decision?! Just because most of our classmates are opting for a course can we do the same… and if one thinks that a particular profession is more rewarding than another, it doesn’t hold true. But how do we get to know what are we good at? well, thats a tricky question!!

Why don’t we just let the kids grow up without thinking about what they want to become after a decade!! Why don’t we let them discover things themselves, use their imagination… They’ll come up with some creative answers for sure..

I like what Leo has to say about it. [see the video below]
