What is happening? It’s not a race, but appears to me as one. Cars, bikes and autos, all lined up, and all eyes set on green light. And on the green light….. Automobiles accelerating as fast as they could, pedestrians rushing, horns hooting…… Welcome to the life 21st century!!!
This is what life in 21st century! Science and technology advanced and came of up solutions in the form of automobiles, computers, etc to make life easy, effortless and better. But is this really effective in making life better? If so, I should be seeing more relaxed and happy people around. But what I see is more of impatient and stressful faces. People running and rushing, because they are running out of time. Where did the time saved by automobiles and computers go? What have we gained with these developments? Where are we rushing to? What are we rushing for? Where are we heading?
A simple answer will be – “This is reality. Accept it and live”. Yes, that’s right, this is reality, and this the order of today’s world. No one has time, only loads of stress. Right from the education, especial professional education (engineering and management), where students are subjected to lots of work load and stress so that they can prepare for a professional life. We are defining and creating a new world; a world built on blocks of stress and competition. It is what matters, a competitive mentality, more than anything. Be competitive, set aside your knowledge and skill, ditch your politeness and ethics, and be successful, that is the mantra of the world today. You will succeed but you won’t be succeeded. The world won’t survive for long with this new mantra. Only few more generation will succeed us!
