what if?

Many of us procrastinate and keep twiddling our thumbs, crossing our legs and tying up our hands wondering what next?What if, this happens or doesn't happen? In this conflict of the mind ,we remain inconclusive on many a critical issue and then sit on the fence , not knowing which side to jump.

The current generation is even more confused it appears.They are very judgmental and react to extreme ends.Some want to jump into it wholeheartedly irrespective of the consequences, more because they don't have additional responsibilities on their shoulders , its a new start to  their lives,and if ,married and both earning ...then WOW.The other lot keep chewing the cud and ruminate no ends.They love chewing gum and make rubber out of gum that messes up with their cavities not only in their oral hygiene but also their mental space.Some love to bask under their cozy umbrella , encouraged by their parents and in  laws and spoiling their lives by not allowing them to get exposed to the realities of this world.If in this hire and fire world where pink slips are getting common, one needs to stand up and face the harsh realities.People get fancy designations doled out at a very young age, smartly put up the company HR so that they get the employees to believe that they have reached the penultimate position and for the lay man he becomes BIG BOSS.The truth being , many such guys loiter around that space in the office premises and keep doing the same jobs.If one decides to step out , he has no option but to search for a higher position as socially and professionally defined, or step down in the eyes of people considering that as a demotion, or stick back to where you are.

Imagine a Vice president in a top Bank  at an age of say 27-29.What next???President of another bank at age 33??????One in a million chance??What if he doesn't get that?Senior Manager at another company would be accepted, or would it be a step down?????The profile he would do would be the same .This way imagine what would happen to this person by the retirement age of 60!!!!!!For 30 plus years he will remain at the same designation with small tweaks to motivate him.What a smart plan.Do we see this or we just blindly follow?Think and act.Decide rationally and keep emotions aside at home.Its a tough world and one requires a lot of patience, proactive nature and a very positive attitude.Some believe that I must work in this line only as that's what i know best?How would you know if that is the best unless you try other lines as well???Who knows you may succeed more?But does one have it in him or her to take these bold steps??Age is not an issue?You need to have a heart and will to drive the car to the goal you want to reach.And trust me you will reach it.Take steps, take sides but think rationally and then go for it.Every lock has a key.Every problem is there because there is a solution.You only need the person to unlock its treasures.
