Finding my ‘why’ of doing job?

Abb toh college bhi khatam ho gaya, abb kya?

This was my mental state after graduation.

People usually either go home, join a company, or start preparing for further studies.

But I wasn't doing any of these.

I was trying to work on a freelance agency called

Markals

We were getting projects, but somehow I didn't feel fully secure.

I felt I should have a job to balance out the risk.

The pressure was mounting, and I wasn't in the best mental state.

Then I decided...

To prepare and get a job by August!

In mid-June, I started preparing for interviews. Leaving Jaipur on June 19th was quite emotional - I'd spent a significant time there.

This time, I was clear about why I wanted a job. I defined it as MENC:

M - MONEY

E - Experience

N - Network

C - Confidence

This clarity really helped drive me.

I learned that day: if your "WHY" is crystal clear, things become accomplishable!
