Do you remember the stories of childhood? Every story used to start with ‘ek kumhaar tha/ ek kisaan tha/ ek raja tha/ ek sipahi tha/ ek jaadugar tha/ ek sunaar tha/ ek lohaar tha/ ek mochi tha’…Every person was employed by birth. They had family profession to carry and that becomes their main identity, sooner or later. Individuals were known on the basis of their skills but in present era, development, economic growth and modern qualification standards have not only increased the competition but also unemployment. People are crazy for working in corporate and forgetting their roots. It is high time to remind people about their roots and help them in developing their inherited profession.

Opting fashion in clothing and accessory is good but do you think opting trend in career is appropriate for an individual, society or nation….? Often you have heard word ‘Bhedchal’ for engineering, management or medical, as parents and society are forcing youth for joining these fields even if they are not interested or apt for it. This ‘Bhedchal’ is spoiling or rather disturbing the complete system and creating unnecessary competition. One must choose career as per his/ her capabilities & traits. In ancient time, professions were based on inherited skills, which is more coherent approach. One can also develop skills and opt profession accordingly but should not go with trend because that is the main factor for competition and unemployment. There is scarcity of people in many professions; in fact there are few fields which are suffering heavy losses because of lack of human resource. So, people must follow the heart and not the trend.
