THE ROOKIE AGE

THE ROOKIE AGE

“How deep can you go for thing of your passion?” It is the punch line, endorsing the car brand. Well, same is with life and career. It becomes easy when the passion is fenced between the academics zone. The real trouble starter is when it breaks away the unified chain and steps on the outskirts. It brings adrenaline pumped revolution which on longer run can make you stand in the league of gentlemen’s club, exemplified in likes of Sachin Tendulkar or breaks you and burry your dreams deep with shackles, completely missing to register in pages of history. It’s just “one second” that can change the course of your whole life. And ironically this “one second” never ever returns. So think again, what will you do to get the thing of your passion?

WAS IT A ROOKIE MISTAKE?

Twenty something boy, from a financially compromised family, came to me for treatment of an anomaly, AMBLYOPIA in his left eye. Amblyopia is a condition in which eye suffer from gross refractive error causing almost blindness leaving a partial vision. He was pursuing his studies for a Charted Accountancy Course. Though not blessed with silver spoon but he snowboard the life on scholarships. He had a promising future in the field of academics as vouched by his teachers, who happened to be my patient too. Life was going velvety smooth for him except the financial constraints which he was used to till now, since it had shadowed him since childhood. But there came a transient phase of transformation which will bound to change the course of future.

PHASE OF TRANSITION

It was very hard to believe that twenty something guy living an Amish lifestyle. He had not seen any movie and neither had a privilege to watch television sitcoms since childhood, one, because his family pushed him to academic front. It was only six months back he saw one bollywood blockbuster that derailed, the whole course of his perceptive. That second reason, the motion picture reflected deep on his psyche that now he wanted to pursue the field of theatrics. He wanted to be a thespian.

PHASE OF BEFUDDLEMENT

Since his revolutionary mind decided to take a thespian shot but his teacher and family differ. His academic promised a job security but his heart wasn’t complacent in it anymore. His passion, on the other hand, brought the flying colors to his life but his future loomed with thread of uncertainty over it. There was an aura of confusion and as unexpected as his decision, he came to me for an opinion.

Everyone knew the slandered answer to the question, but such tailor made answers never make chivalrous heroes.

WORD OF ADVICE

Whether or not I should have given that advice or I just overstepped? I don’t know. But it is sure that I am bound to share- the burden of his future success or failure.

HERE’S MY PERSONAL TRICK

When ever in doubt, the wise says leave it on God. So the modus oprendi to leave it on God [that I myself have learned from one of my patients] is as follows:

According to Hindu religion any work done in Brahma Murat [between 4:10am to 4:48am] bears the fruit of success. Therefore I asked him to get up early one fine day and get ready by Brahman Murat. As the dawn sweeps in, he should pray to god and seek his advice. That could be done by making four paper chits two with the option ‘CA’ written on it and two with the option ‘Actor’ written on it. He should shuffle them honestly and put them in the feet of God. And then pray as hard as he can. As the time of Brahma Murat weans towards its end, pick one chit and then with blind faith follow it. That chit becomes your destiny from that very second. No ‘U’ turns from that moment because any uncertainty means defying the order of God.

I asked him, if he had that will, he can go for it. I thought he would decline. But contrarily, he thanked me to find the solution.

[And I skipped a Beat there. I would be so damned!]

PHRENOLOGY OF PASSION/HOPE

 AFTER MATHS 
He has abandoned his CA studies and have sold those books at second hand rate. He has got himself a menial paying job, for liquidity. Though Amish lifestyle but has put little investments too his passion, the Goal of his life.

Only because his Doctor suggested, that let the God decide for him.

MORAL

Life is not a math’s problem that could be solved by being practical. But, it is neither the gambler’s game leaning on luck…
