Today whatever we do in life, we
must have a fair to good understanding about computers. It can be as simple as
using Microsoft Office to create a spreadsheet or writing a letter or making
presentations to as complex as developing complex code to develop a program or
mobile application. We may have basic computer knowledge, but the question is –
do we have the required skills to perform our duties?
Problem Statement: There
is a gap between what we know and what we need to know. The problem is, many
times when we come to know about the gap, it’s already been late. Because of
that, if we are already working, then our performance gets impacted or if I am
a job seeker, then getting the right job becomes very difficult. Think about a
situation where, you are applying for a job, where you need to use MS Excel to
do some advanced computing. If you do not have that skill, you will be losing
that job opportunity.
For the Computer Science
Engineering students, the problem is even bigger. The Computer Science Engineering
students know that what they learn during Engineering, is not good enough to
get their dream job. But most of the time, they do not know what should they
learn. Because of that, they often go with the flow – what my friends in the
batch are learning, I shall also learn the same technology. But what they miss
here is – do I have the right aptitude to learn and master the same technology?
For example, if my friend has enrolled for a Data Science Training course,
shall I also blindly do so? Please do not do so.
Please remember that to become a
Data Scientist, other than learning software technologies, you need to have a
very good aptitude for Mathematics and Statistics. Without that, you will be
wasting your time and money but that will not help you to get the Data
Scientist job!
Solution: Before enrolling
for any additional training, please identify your strengths and weaknesses and
based on your strengths, choose what you should learn. Do not learn something
which may have lots of jobs today, but tomorrow may not have (a dying
technology). So, do not try teaching Lata Mangeshkar cricket – the result will
be a disaster. Please book a slot where I can help you to identify your calling
and strengths so that you can choose the right path in your life.
We at Conscious Living Center
(CLC) can support you or your students/children to find alignment between their
interest and capabilities and make the right decision about their way forward, so that they can get on to a learning and growth path
that will lead to success and happiness instead of mediocrity and frustration.
