2022/04/23 ( College is worth it )

Nowadays, many people started wondering if college worth all the money and effort instead of getting a job right after school. College is expensive in some countries and cheap in other countries. I will be talking about the situation in expensive countries. For example, in the USA college tuition is very expensive and many parents cannot afford it so students have to loan money to pay the tuition. This loan will accumulate throughout college years. Once you finish college, you will have to spend 5-10 years just to finish paying your debts. Moreover, you will have to make a lot of effort and spend a lot of time studying (4-5 years). 

On the other hands, if you decided to find a job right after school, you will be making little money instead of debts. Getting a job without certificate is possible but it will be minimum wage and will be probably physical and tiring. But you will be making similar amount of money compared with having certificate and debts. Even though the wage will be minimum wage, you will be making money and not debts. 

However, the kind of jobs you will get is not comfortable as much as getting a job with a certificate. The type of jobs vacant for people who possess certificate is totally different than without certificate. This is why college is worth it. Because you will have a better job for the rest of your life. You will have much better life because you have a certificate (In the normal circumstances). If you have the capability to study in college, go for it. If not, it is ok. It is not the end of the world. You still can get a job a thrive and rise.

Poison Positivity

 When I was in my third year in college, I had an acute depression. I had very bad grades and I had a lot of family problems. Starting from 2018, I decided to listen and read about self-development. I immersed myself in this world and I replaced my negativity with positivity. I literally brainwashed my brain. After I have have solved my depression problem completely, I started looking unsatisfied on many self-development post. I realized that often time, being optimistic is just a way of escaping the brutal truth. It is actually will make you less happy instead of more happy. Even too much positivity is bad for you.

The Chalisgaon Solar Panel Vandalism Incident: A Labor Protest Turned Viral

In 2018, a labor dispute at a solar farm in Chalisgaon, Maharashtra, India, escalated into an incident of vandalism, where frustrated workers destroyed solar panels. The workers were employed to construct and maintain a 100-megawatt solar project but took drastic action due to unpaid wages. Videos showed them smashing the panels with hammers and sticks in protest. Initially, some misinformation circulated online, suggesting that the destruction was motivated by superstitions, such as blaming the panels for causing droughts. However, fact-check investigations confirmed that the primary reason was non-payment of wages. The workers, angered by the delayed compensation, decided to damage the infrastructure as a form of protest. This incident highlights the vulnerabilities within labor management in large-scale infrastructure projects. The combination of financial mismanagement and lack of proper communication between workers and project administrators can lead to such severe reactions. The...

Why You Cannot Achieve More Than One Goal in The Same Period of Time

One of the most common traps people fall into is trying very hard to achieve more than one goal in the same period of time. They might be very motivated to master more than one skill so they create a schedule to help them work on all their goals in a daily basis. They keep working hard on multiple goals in the same time for months without getting a satisfying result. Then they start to question their strategy in learning each skill and change it and keep repeating the same cycle again. They start to work on one goal all the time but after two or three weeks they start to work in more than one goal and the cycle keep repeating.             What I mean by a goal or a skill in this post is something like, improving your academic performance, master a musical instrument, learn a language, have a good body shape, learn drawing, be a great engineer, be great writer, learn a coding language, …etc. These are just some examples but you ...
