Career Choice



Wrong career decision can ruin our whole life leading to total regret, disappointment and unhappiness.

Excessive involvement & hand holding will only backfire as thereafter the child needs constant direction and can never become self-sufficient decision maker ever.

Parents should not try to live their dream through their children .Give children the space to identify their dreams, interests, passions and ambitions while analyzing their personal characteristics, values, strengths, weaknesses, talents & abilities.

By doing what they like they will not only give them their best but will enjoy the work also.

Parents must render experienced counsel, support and sounding board and subtly guide their children without ruffling any feathers. Instead of dictating suggestion, logically explain the pros and cons with the focus firmly fixed on your son/daughter’s likes & strengths.

Parents must act as a steering wheel in a car rather than a driver itself. Sitting together and having open discussion will build a healthy understanding.

Let the children make his own mistakes and learn from them. Parents must remain in background ever ready to offer help
