I am an Undergraduate at IIT Kanpur(I know it's a ridiculous start.. :|) struggling hard to get an Internship position at any Financial firm in the coming summer'11(what better can one expect in my current puzzled state?). I am still not sure why am I doing it. Am I really interested in becoming a financial analyst or a stock trader, I REALLY don't know...!!! Then why the hell am I looking for such an internship?
Oviously, I am doing it just to impress my future employers. Do I know them? No, I don't know them, but I feel, this credential added to my resume would arouse their interest in me and I would get a job in that "XYZ" firm. What a satisfying reason for my endeavour! Huh...BULLSHIT...!!!
On the contrary, just the idea of following my passion about exploring the world around in vacation Always elevates my mood. But will I do that? How could I? Won't it undervalue my position amongst my peer competitors? Wouldn't it lower my chances of reaching the asses of my would be interviewers?
No, no I won't do that. I am continuing my efforts of being an intern in a Financial Firm untill I have the COURAGE TO FOLLOW MY HEART.
