Working on people.

Working on people.

One of the biggest problem of working in a developing country is the lack of passion. As a kid, every child in the neighborhood grows up seeing people struggle to get their daily bread and try to earn money any way they can. That automatically forces a state of mind to think that a job is something that you do to get money. Doesn’t matter if you are good at it or if it’s the kind of job that you want to do. As long as it pays, you will do it. Don’t get me wrong, yes, we are in a poor country and we can’t afford to choose what we want to do when someone besides you can’t even find a low paying job to cover his everyday meal but we could at least teach our children to find out what they are passionate about at school. And maybe, just maybe, they will become successful doing what they love.

In addition to that, the lack of opportunity, money, pressure from your society and your peers affect your decision to get in to a specific line of work. What you decide to work should be acceptable by the society and have to get you enough money. If you decide to go out of the way and try to work on what you are passionate about and hope to earn money through time then you should get ready for some major criticism. Only a handful of people have been bold enough to fight through society and became what they want to be.

For years, we have been dependent on agriculture led industry to support our economy and if we want to change that, we should be able to give our children the ability to discover what they want to be without any kind of outside influence. More than half of our country’s populations is a youth and side by side with creating job opportunities, we should unlock people’s potential to find out what they exceed in and use that to build something better for the future.

More than working, we should focus on working on people!
