The 4th Idiot
On December 25th, 2009, a cinematic masterpiece of Bollywood "3 Idiots" was unveiled in theatres, setting new records in the history of Indian cinema. This film profoundly resonated with young individuals who found themselves trapped in unwanted educational pursuits, often compelled by familial and societal pressures. The story revolves around three close friends who ultimately find success by pursuing work they are passionate about. The movie's underlying message is clear: follow your own aspirations rather than succumbing to external pressures from parents and society. However, what about those who are far from realizing their dream careers?
This is where the concept of the "4th Idiot" comes into play. The 4th Idiot is someone who, after careful introspection, recognizes that they are a long way from making a career change. They have invested significant time and resources in honing the skills they possess today, making a fresh start seem impractical. With patience, they develop a genuine interest in their current field of work and strive for excellence. It's essential to acknowledge that not everyone can easily transition to a career they are passionate about. As human beings, we possess the ability to learn new things and unlearn the old ones. With patience and a deep understanding of the domain, it's possible to excel in a field we may not fully grasp initially. All we have to give it is time and attention. Shahrukh Khan is a living example of it. He came to acting line just to earn bread and butter, he had no genuine interest in this field. But later he improvised and now creating history everyday.
Therefore, if you can't be one of the "3 Idiots" pursuing their dreams, you can undoubtedly become the "4th Idiot" who excels in their current path through dedication and perseverance. All is well.
