Life is not fair . Get used to it
Life is not fair. Get used to it
Rewards in life are unfairly distributed. If you are from Kolkata, you will realise the difference between being born in Bally and being born in Ballygunge. The latter is born with a silver spoon in the mouth and eventually had often success thrust upon him/her.
Good things in life- fame, money, intelligence are unfairly distributed.
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel was far more deserving than Jawaharlal Nehru. State Congress Working Committees had recommended his name but Gandhi vetoed and Nehru became the PM of India. Same for deserving freedom fighter like Subhas Chandra Bose. He was left to live a life of oblivion.
Anna Hazare fought the anti-corruption movement but the rewards were enjoyed by his follower Arvind Kejriwal
MS Dhoni, just because of the Central Coalfields Limited Chairman, had a delayed
trip to Kolkat to take the flight to Agartala where he was to play for the East Zone in the Duleep Trophy, which used to be an inter-zonal first class tournament back then. The flight took off an hour in advance. He then had to take a job in Railways. Mr A K Ganguly taught him that when life gives you a bouncer, you have to duck down and defend.
In CA, often getting good articleship becomes a nightmare for students who are deserving. Some get stuck with exploitative principals
very good students, who have been bright all through, get stuck in the one subject less than 40, group total less than 200 . When you clear with multiple attempts, there is no Pull for you in the market. Everyone wants first attempt or rankers. You have to push your CV and thats tough
As a student, who knows their copies would have gone to an unscrupulous examiner , who checked the papers carelessly, just for money- or delegated it to his article. You might have been at the receiving end of the scaling system - become a CA as per List 1 and a failed candidate as per List 2.
Campus shortlisting by companies is arbitrary. You cant help it.
Same for MBA. The OBC candidate walks away with the admit offer at significantly lower percentiles in CAT. The girl candidate gets 4 extra points because Institutes want to increase their diversity ratio for better B-school rankings. Companies want to recruit more women to get included in Bloomberg Gender Equality Index. Placement seasons has its own politics equations at play. And you might be left high and dry.
You get a boss who is not the nicest of people, sometimes vindictive and hell bent on sabotaging your career. People quit bosses, not companies. Thats life
You will see less diligent people than you getting promoted in companies, because of their oiling skills, playing the Corporate Mahabharata better than you
Inspite of best efforts and providing quality content, I dont get enough traction on my YouTube videos, on my E-learning courses. People with superficial content get more popular. What to do? Thats life
idiotic startups raise millions of dollars. You know they are bluff-masters and will never make money. There are no takers for your profitable venture
But never lose hope and most importantly your self esteem. The world applauds only for the rising sun, the super successful. if you arent one of them, you are mercilessly sidelined. It is not society's responsibility to make you feel good about yourself . You have to be resilient in the wake of adversity and wait for the wheel of fortune to turn. Luck reserves also and patterns of success/failure in life also change.
Obama retired at 55, Trump started at 70. Sydney is 3 hours ahead of Perth, but that doesn't make Perth slow. Each of us are in our own time zone and sometimes a good strategy will be to keep trying and wait for better times.
