Dream job or race trap?
The viral post shows the story of an IIT student, who through hard work got an internship in an MNC and then got a PPO of ₹70 LPA. Seen from outside, it looks like the success story of any student. But actually a different struggle is going on in his mind, is this the real purpose of life? He wrote in the email that he has always been in the race to top and get a good job, but now he feels that he is not living the life of his choice.
the race never ends
According to the post, the race does not end even after getting a big salary or a big title. There is always a bigger salary, better post and more opportunities coming his way. This is the reason why many people feel empty inside even after achieving success. See the Instagram post below-
use job as life fund
The post also gives a different perspective that job should be seen not just as a career but as a life fund. That is, after creating financial security in the first few years, later focus on your passion and life goals. It has been suggested that priority should be given to savings and investment along with earnings, so that one can get freedom in future.
Work-Life Balance vs. Corporate Pressure
This story leaves a big question for today’s youth: Is a high salary the only success or a life that you can live without pressure? Increasing corporate race, mental stress and burnout are now becoming the new reality of career. This viral post is not just a story but a thought-provoking message that success can mean different things to everyone and perhaps real victory lies only where a person does not lose himself.
