1. In this information technology oriented world, thanks to social media and internet, we are literally living in the world of information bombarding. It's natural for us to hear some negative comments about our profession/our study course such as tough standards, lengthy syllabus, multiple attempts, struggle in practice or employment etc etc. Just lend a deaf ear to these kind of negative people and stay away from them. Don't ever think of wasting your time in confronting with these people.
Just hold on to your decision, your belief and rest assured these people will shut their mouths once you become qualified and successful.
2. Degree is not a measure of your success. Your success is personalized, it's your own personal assessment what do you think of your self. Degree is static while a human being who possess that degree is dynamic.
3. The focus is on yourself even if you are qualified. You need to keep on going, keep working, keep developing and updating yourself. Your degree is just a milestone.
4. More than the degree what matters is what do you do with that degree. Scale of your success depends upon the achievement of yourself.
5. If you are naturally inspired from within, nobody and nothing can stop you, you won't need external inspiration or motivation.
6. If your priorities are clear you are not likely to be distracted. You are distracted only when your priorities are not put in place.
7. Your second option can be your best option who knows. so never underestimate your self and your decision. You have all the power within yourself to translate your decision and choice to great success provided you have made well informed decision because what is right for others may not be right for you.
8. Don't shy away from learning and developing yourself. Investment in yourself is the best investment.
9. Judge yourself not because of circumstances but because of your own nerves and steely resolve.
10. Take responsibility for your decision and choices. Take charge of your own life. Don't go by the opinion of others that you are good at this and not good at that. Make your own conscious decision of your abilities.
11. Last but not the least, always remember that human life is precious. Dont' sit on your laurels but at the same time don't ignore your smallest of achievements. List down all your achievements so far, and be proud of them, reward yourself at least with a pat on the back. Your achievements may not be big but they are not smaller either. Every human being is special and life is precious.
