Nobody Told Me to Become This
I followed every piece of advice I got. It took me nowhere.
My first business was an educational franchise. I used to mentor many young students who wanted to do something big in life. Most of them were impressed that I had cleared several exams and wanted to become something themselves.
But the question that confused most of them was this: Which is the best career?
It was the same question I had asked while growing up.
When I asked my father, he suggested engineering.
When I asked my mother, she suggested becoming a doctor.
My uncle suggested the civil services.
I was so confused that I ended up doing what most of my friends were doing at the time—engineering.
That turned out to be a terrible mistake.
Soon, I found myself struggling to understand the concepts, lacking focus, and feeling no real motivation.
So I started experimenting.
I took small classes that interested me. I paid attention to the kind of books I enjoyed reading and followed where my curiosity led. If I didn’t like something, I quit and moved on to something else. Quitting a class or abandoning a book didn’t feel like a big decision—it felt necessary.
The point was simple: to understand what I liked and what I didn’t, so I could figure out where to focus my energy, time, and money.
That’s how I discovered what I enjoyed the most—business and writing.
No one had suggested either of them when I asked for advice. And I would never have discovered them if I hadn’t explored, quit, and kept looking.
Be an explorer.
