When You Are High On Work

Have you ever experienced a high while working? Yes, I am talking about you! I have been, and I have enjoyed every bit of it. Why shouldn’t I? I am young; I have all the time and energy to put into my work. Why shouldn’t you do the same, after all that growing up listening to “work is worship” you are still not putting efforts to get that high. After all your work is your legacy and that is what is left behind when you leave the world. The work high I am talking about gives you a rush of ‘chemicals’ inside you which make you feel better; it’s a feeling of euphoria and fulfilment which drives you further into knowing yourself.

As a fresher (Or even as a lateral), you don’t have much idea about the processes and maybe you lack confidence, you feel less-than-prepared, or cant decide where to go. By the time you understand these while also settling into b-school curriculum, activities, committees, etc. SIPs start. So first thing first - I believe SIPs are more important than Finals. WHY?

Let me tell you what really happened and what I learnt from it all. This is from a summer intern to all her juniors (and her past self), because there are some records that need to be set straight.
