Rat Race- Ambition or Dream

A long queue outside an audition hall is a common sight these days. Everyday we see so many competitions on TV as Talent hunt, Best VJ, Outstanding RJ, Voice of India, Boogie Woogie-dance competition etc…

Quick fame and fast money has become the motive and dream of most of the youngsters. The most important thing to note is that today even parents have,, it seems, aroused from a long sleep or rather they also want to run on the same track.

Few years back, a student’s ambition was limited to become a Doctor, an Engineer , a Teacher, a Lawyer etc,…very few deviated to follow their dream to become a singer or a dancer. But has anyone thought that this ambition used to be a dream or just a rat race to earn something….!!

Studious children slogged with extreme will power to achieve 100% to get admission in the dedicated colleges and mediocre students continued to slog till they reached somewhere near the goal.

Today the scenario has undergone a complete change. Parents have become hyper active to study the child’s interest and support to outshine the talent.

Studies and activities are manageable whereas earlier studies and activities had a separate schedule and time frame altogether.

Media has influenced each and every mind so much that even kids are quite smart to decide their future which is prominently seen in their attitude.

Luck is of course, an essential factor to link the fate of a person with prosperity and that’s the reason everybody has joined the rat race to try out their luck.

Time has really changed now. The general trend observed over the period of time is that education is primarily important but not at the cost of missing an audition date or a screen test.

Time has brought in a peculiar change in parents which is addressed to fame and fast money again. They are busy browsing professional services pertaining to cultural activities. They are more eager to see their child learn different forms of dance, singing, acting etc…so that they too are able to follow the rat race of fame and money.

Parents are more conscious today, they are much more supportive but is this change in their behavioral pattern because of the two important factors, fame and money or is it simply because of realization…

Change is always good but its upon you to decide how good that change is for YOU!!
