Talent: The education system Funnel! (Post #1 of 4)

This is Post # 1 from a Series of 4 Posts Note: This post is not to criticize our education system or various professions, rather, it is intended to highlight the need for a student or for an early to mid-level career professional to do a bit more. Read on to find out... Looking closer at our education system, I find that it is a Funnel first and a Learning System later. More often than not, it is a system where we Learn how to Learn ! We are exposed to a historical account  of a subject's evolution first, irrespective of whether it is an Arts course or an Engineering course.

How your Skill drives your Motivation at work!

We all face motivation challenges at work from time to time. In my professional experience, 95% of the people I have come across have complained about low motivation levels at work. The situation has not changed much in the last 10 years and I am sure that there will be no change in the next 10 years if we don’t do anything about it. People who complain of low motivation levels at work can be broadly classified under two heads; Category 1 : Those who are working in their chosen jobs, doing what they love doing. Category 2 : Those who are working on jobs that are forced on to them (those who were unable to get the jobs they desired but eventually compromised to take up what was available) . The following argument holds good for those in Category 1. The argument also stands for Category 2, but only when the individual is willing to pursue their current career path and do well in the years ahead. Prof. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, a Hungarian psychologist and distinguished Profess...
