Control, or let them!

Sometimes things don't work like we have planned, therefore we tend to do jobs that are not meant for us, the hierarchical strides that put us working all like slaves and embossing our priorities with their rules. Life for me carries a different equation altogether; it is like getting to solve people's problem with what I already have and how I am able to.

Some people love to travel, among others who fill their life with occasional dip in spirits. Some people need the world to know how they are making this world a better place. When people really get out of their fictional zone and face reality, they realise the best output of their thoughts. We just feel trapped even when we have nothing to do, we tend to keep ourselves occupied doing irrelevant things but zilch.

We are humans, humans with need, need that transcends to want, want that is as perilous as war. This is how have humans come together to create war but love. Without having to know it's dire consequences, we get ourselves to one direction that isn't ours. It is but made for us, by the people we have faith in. By the belief we put on someone or something (be it religion, be it God).

Now, for a brief moment, just imagine life where you are not accountable to anyone, you do what you feel like, buy stuff that you love, travel wherever you want to, be with people you want to be, enjoy sex, get high, steal something, hurt someone, hate or even kill someone. And you have nothing to sob on, but just do what you want. At the end of it, you will be a person of regret. Then don't even feel the guilt of it. Just shamelessly do what you ever desire for. After all, who is there to judge, who is that you even obey. People who are exposed to doing these things, they don't feel guilt. What they think right is right. They don't have anyone to judge them. It's a world you think where actions have no consequences, where guilt is cloaked by self-proclaimed righteousness. An invisible universe that is there, emptying your conscience, every minute of a time.

This notion, it has to be wrong. That's why humans have created for themselves, something more powerful and it is not God. It is that power that holds them for long, making them eventually habitual to choose, in fact select, the right decision for them. Behold yourselves, you are now being controlled. Every moment in your life is the right decision taken by someone else, for you. You just choose to be in it or on other.

You have parents, you have a boss, you believe in God, are you atheist or not, liberal? Every time you do things that you think isn't for you is actually someone else getting something out of you, not to mention, for their benefit of course. That's how it happens, your strings are in my hands.

Control yourself, before anyone else does. People having an uninformed opinion about things they don't understand to proclaim their opinion equally valid as facts is what is ruining them people. No one wants to learn about anything, they just want to be right.

Startups vs MNCs - The Big RAT Race

Working with the Multi-National Companies will give your resume a brand name but neither would it change your capability nor will improve business. If you want a brand label on your resume then don't go for startups. And if you want a career growth and you are not afraid of building reputation on your own then startups shall be on your call. 
For MNC-
It's definitely a dog-eat-dog world out there and people are least concerned about the fact where they are pushing their career towards. At least, now I am speaking for our Indian Society; if you have just graduated and hunting for job you would definitely go chasing big brands and despite the fact that MNCs literally takes up your life but then you would love it without it. Here, you will be trying to only be specific to "your" career, playing politics getting a position where you'd be the boss but eventually you are losing credibility. Now, who cares if you are getting a hefty pay check and a brand name on your ID says so-and-so Multi-National firm that raises eye brows while you are travelling in a Metro (only in the case if you don't own a BMW). And finally your career ends up bragging about many places you visited and food you ate, not forgetting to mention how your 'life in lights' was.
For StartUps
It's NOT a dog-eat-dog world, yes, it is not in a startup. If you are emotionally working out to build up your career and you think money is not the concern only until it helps managing your living. A startup is where you can actually startup your career, if giving your resume a startup name shall not demean your confidence. In a startup you will get exposure, it's like taking admission in a school from the first grade. You will get to learn the business without spending a nickel and it can be beneficial for you if you are just an entrant, or looking out for jobs. Expecting big money in this case would not lead you anywhere even after 3 years but the least you can do is live a fruitful life. You'd not own a Mercedes this way (if that's what you are desperate about) in nearly 5 to 6 years down the line but can definitely expect a peace-of-mind working schedule and coming back to loving family in your own Chevy Beat. Startups can lead to up to certain levels of satisfactions. Live Life In Peace.
