From Passion to Practicality
What happened in between my previous blog and this
blog?
I failed my interview of
Hydrogeologist in B. WASA, though I was confident that I will make it through,
but I failed, the astonishing thing is that the one who has been selected
shared his concerned about the questions asked in the interview and was afraid
that those question was not relevant. Whereas I was sure of my answers in
interview.
Study:
I couldn’t complete my M. Phil in due time, I have taken extension now, just started writing my thesis. Started it from sedimentology
chapter, the most important of them all.
Work:
9:30 am to 7:30 pm work time,
giving my 100% at work, nothing bothers boss, still complains at occasions,
never appreciates, will take credit of good work, complain about anything less
than good. “My craze for work has never
faded and never it will”. Haji Waseh (Boss & Uncle) and me both are
developing interest in Cars, with implementation of Auto policy 2016-2021 which
has resulted in paving way for new car companies to establish their assembling
and manufacturing plants in Pakistan, among these companies are Kia, Hyundai,
Nissan, United, Sazgar, Road Prince and some Chinese companies. Another reason of building
interest in cars is increasing competition in motorcycles, and relatively
unfair environment for motorcycles businesses.
Personal Life:
Got engaged four months ago in
December 2017. After getting rejected many times. Plans for marriage is in
early September 2018. Probably around that time I am expecting my M. Phil to be
completed or near completion. I would like to say something more about marriage (probably a blog) when my wedding is near.
Entering in Practicality:
What does entering in
practicality means? Sometimes I am ready giving up my studies for family
business of motorcycles, this is because I think I know enough about
motorcycles and can do well in this business, My uncle and boss has expressed
his desires that I should remain with him and do business (practically as an employee), he often gives
example that how less viable is government job or any other job than doing your
own business, often compares government employees earnings with his earning. I
have worked for nine years now and I would like to work more in motorcycles. But
sometimes I think this work is not mine entirely and I am not allowed to make
any decision. Garyvee (my influencer) once said the work you do for parents and
family because your parents and family want it from you, ultimately results in
disputes with parents and family.
Practically this work
will never be mine, no matter how much hard work, time, energy I put in to it,
it will always be a “family” business, it will always be working under someone
else, I do not want an entire business to be named after me, but I want a decision
making rights, a work where you are not made to feel at every step that you
cant put your thoughts about matters on table, or you are not “qualified” enough
to deals with matters, as a matter of fact I am amongst the most qualified in family.
I can either "hope" for things to get better,
or I can leave for better. I would have made something out of my study if I had
put half of the energy and time that I have put in business.
