Mad race of the world......

Its funny how stereotypes are made...its funny how everyone gets after the stereotype of success.....

few days ago success meant goto USA get a green card .....come back marry a gal and goback ... settle there.....and it is still the same for some people...and these guys are in great demand when it comes to the marriage markets.............

but how times have changed.....the whole world is comin to india.........All the so-called benefits/attractions/advantages of USA or any other western country is now in india....that is ofcourse if u can afford it............

and it has happened silently.....and so very swiftly......... just like some one was moving the pieces separately , silently and suddenly the move is clear..the die is cast and the trap is clearly laidout in a game..............and everyone is partying now.........

and people who had no hopes in life are now making fast progress.........and at breakneck speeds.....

well well........ Iam not chronicling that here now..there are better books and authors who have done a better job of it........what i was wondering about was.......how have the stereotypes changed...i mean everyone does the same thing...as if its a golden laid out formula for success......

first u ought to be an engineer or doctor.......that is when u are into graduating.....once u r into engineering......u must be doin software courses irrespective of the branch u r in......once u r done with engg....u must write GRE/Gate...........i mean everyone is doin it..u ought to do it.......everyone who is worth his/her salt is advising you to do that.................

nowadays MBA is the buzz word.......with the media making a hype out of salarys of b-school grads...its the in -thing.....that is if u have crossed over the IT engineer thing...few days ago it was the most swanky thing...but now with every other guy whom you meet being a software engineer regardless of what where or how he studied...........it has become (or so it seems ) become passe..........

and we have number of people writing CAT tripling in 3 years............and fees for coaching institutes (offering you all and sundry type of CAT coaching) increasing by four times......and everyone wants to become an manager............and everyone wants to know the secret of cracking CAT..........iam not being dismissive....but people ought to know about themselves ......about wht they wanna do,....why they wanna do....about wht they want to do..before deciding on doing something.....they do it just because everyone is doin it........whatever..........whom do i wanna change....how many will i change....and why would i want to change them..................

these wry ways of world .....these are meant to be like this..........just because people are like this....people who make a difference...who are different ......are made to look special..and they deserve to be............kudos to those guys.....who have been different.....and who are responsible for India to be enjoyin these sunny days...........

IF NOT FOR THEM......wht would have these stereotypicalpeople done............hmmm......**sigh**...................
