When I read the line ‘It is not important to merely get into the best college, but to make the best of your college life’ in the book Stay Hungry Stay Foolish by Rashmi Bansal, I felt very happy that she shared the same thoughts as mine. And from that day onwards, this line has become my signature in my e-mail address.
Today, I was reading the article by Chetan Bhagat who had penned similar thoughts in Hindustan Times. But this article had a different dimension to the same point, where the father, whose son scored 92% in board exams and is expecting an admission in SRCC or St Stephens, has changed his views from admitting his college into the top brands in India to making him a better individual. And this change in attitude in the father came after observing that his son was under huge pressure about the admissions and is unable to handle it.
And it was a good feeling to know that such a famous personality is having the view that it is important to turn into better individuals that joining top schools. Such a change in mindset bodes well for the country’s future.
gud one!
