    Mistakes That Every Engineering Student Must Avoid

    Schools students in their last grade always fantasized about the college life that always college life One must enjoy college life, but with conditions. With reference to that, we are going to learn what are the Mistakes That Every Engineering Student Must Avoid.

    Mistake Helps Us Grow..!!

    Yes it is a famous saying but life is too short to learn by your mistake, you can also learn from other’s mistakes.

    Mistakes That Every Engineering Student Must Avoid

    In case you are reading this for the first time, let me introduce myself, I am Ronak Prajapati, a chemical engineer having work experience with more than 4 years of and apart from that, I am a tech blogger. Today, in this post, I am going to share my thoughts and my experience on Mistakes That Every Engineering Student Must Avoid. Do give this a read and do share your thoughts on my learnings.

    Mistakes That Every Engineering Student Must Avoid

    Mistakes are good but only if they happen once and not be repetitive. Mistakes can help us to grow if we give analyze them and learn from them and starts focusing on how not to make that mistake again. Here are some of the learnings that I consider as mistakes and in my opinion, these are the Mistakes That Every Engineering Student Must Avoid.

    Not attending classes regularly

    For a student not only an engineering student, but a general student, it is vital to attend classes regularly. If you are under impression that we only attend class to take lectures from teachers or professor who reads the topic and you had already covered that topic so attending classes are on no user then you are not. Professors and teachers, the majority of them not only covers the topics but also share their experience. You can get all the details about the topics from books and from the internet, but the real-life and hands-on experience of those professors, you can’t find it anywhere except the class.

    You all know that engineering is all about practical execution and without getting at the workplace or industry, how the thing practically works you are not gonna have any idea. So it is important to attend classes regularly.

    Now focusing on CGPA

    On the internet and even some working professional says that marks don’t matter, you deed tp have knowledge. Yes, I don’t disagree with this statement but don’t agree 100% with this either. In the initial stage when you are a fresher and are CGPA, SPI or CPI whatever you call it, these are the matrix that is really important when you sit in the interview. Not only in the interview, but in resume selection it plays a crucial role.

    For a fresher, getting a resume shortlisted or selected is mostly based on two things.

    1. CGPA
    2. Projects and internships

    None of the recruiters wants to hire a weak candidate. As a fresher, you don’t have a field or industrial experience on which basis, you can stand out of crowd, It’s the CGPA only, which can help you to get your resume shortlisted. In a personal interview, the recruiter will analyze you on different other matrix and in that, your CGPA might not play a leading role but to get your resume shortlisted, your marks are extremely important.

    Lets us take the example of me, I was an average student and didn’t take my first semester of chemical engineering seriously and because of that, I got a backlog in Maths-1 subject with only 6.57 SPI. After that, I studied hard and clear out that backlog and that was the last backlog in my whole bachelor’s studies.

    In our final semester, Deepak Phenolics, a well-renowned industry in the petrochemical sector came to hire us in campus placement. I was really excited and had worked hard to crack the interview as soon as we heard this news that this company is going to come for campus placement. But I got shattered when the company list out the eligible criteria. The candidate must not have any backlog in any semester, this was one of the criteria to become eligible for an interview and as I had one backlog in semester 1, I become ineligible. So although my CGPA was 8.2 till the 7th sem, I can’t sit for an interview in that company.

    That’s why you should focus on your studies as because of my low score in semester 1, I got failed without appearing for an interview. You shouldn’t misunderstand this point and take CGPA too seriously and stop other activities. A person should have overall development and this should not be the case where you only focus on CGPA.

    Not making Networks

    After graduation, you are a fresher, and believe me, getting your first job is gonna be pretty tough. If you got selected in campus placement then you had crossed your initial step of the searching first job, but if by any chance you didn’t get placed by college or university, you will have to search job by your own and it will be a tough task.

    As you are new to the industry, you don’t have experience, it you have contacts of the persons working in the same domain, you have a benefit it they refer you. Believe me, now everything works on reference. Your networks will only help you to get references and these references can help you to get jot.

    Your network is your net worth

    Author Porter Gale teaches you the same in his book Your network is your net worth. So start building new connections and networks.

    Not working on yourself

    Start working on yourself, this sentence you had heard in my motivational or self-development videos or had read in several self-help books. You will only know the true value of when you stepped out of university and get enter into professional life. Being intelligent or securing the first position in the examination is not the only parameter to build a successful career, things like how confident you are, your communication skills, your nature, your behavior with your colleagues, how you portray yourself also matters.

    Hence it is important to work on your personality and make your first impression really good so that you can set into the work culture of the organization you join and show your books the best work of yours.

    Use wikipedia more than books

    During your engineering students, you need to complete various projected assignments. Having internet access is a facility that can be helpful for a student to get information regarding the topic. The advantage becomes a disadvantage when the person forgot to limit to use the internet and apart from using books to refer topic, they started using Wikipedia and other websites to do copy paste and create a presentation.

    There is no harm in using the internet to create projects and presentations, but relying just on Wikipedia to not using books is a problem. So use the internet as an additional means of studying and get the updated information but don’t stop using books. Anyone can write on the internet and there is no check available whether the information available on the internet is authenticate or not. Hence don’t stop using textbooks as information on books is authenticate.

    Not working on communication skills

    Having knowledge is of no use if you don’t share it with others. Knowledge is useless if you don’t share it with others. It’s not important that you are smart and really know your domain very well. But you have to portray yourself and let others know that you know these things.

    If you know something but you don’t know how to present it then it’s of no use. There is a famous saying that

    Until or unless you don’t show it won’t sell

    This means if you can’t show what you know and how capable you are, nobody will value you.

    So start working to build skills and communication skills is one of them that you should not ignore.

    Not doing projects and internships

    Nowadays, no one wants to teach work instead everyone wants an experienced person so that he or she can contribute to the organization. As all companies and organizations want experienced people, you can show your projects and internships. These can help you to portray your work and a resume with a list of internships and projects included are more likely to be shortlisted.

    So apart from studies, you should actively participate in projects and always remain active in seeking opportunities for internships irrespective of whether you will be paid for that or not.

    Summing Up

    These are some of the Mistakes Engineering Students Make while there are in college and in universities. If you are a university student then do take these tips seriously and start working on it. These might seem worthless but believe me, you will understand this as valuable after you graduate.

    Apps and games are designed in such a way that the user gets hooked to it. Apps, social media and games keep you engaged by showing feeds and news based on your interest. As you open and play a video on youtube, you keep on getting videos suggestion based on your interest and this makes you spend more time and instead of watching a single video, you end up watching multiple videos.

    As a tech blogger, I had tried various apps and software and as i got into the games of productivity, I had specifically given the emphasis on making use of smartphones without getting addicted to phones. Hereafter experimenting with certain things for 8 long months, I am condensing my tips in this article.

    Actionable steps to stop phone addiction

    Meme pages are for fun and nothing else and you can find enless number of meme pages on instagram and on Facebook.

You share those in your Instagram stories and in your WhatsApp group and from there you started a conversation with your friend over that meme.

    This meme caption contains words like “Tag your best friend” “Tag your Bae” “Mention ravi, rahul and any random name” Which keeps you and your friend engaging. Once you do it, your friend will repeat the same and got stuck in this endless cycle.

  • What did you learn too late in life?

    What did you learn too late in life?

    learn-too-late-in-life

    I was scrolling to Quora and I found a question, What did you learn too late in life? I simply got hooked on this question and it forces me to think. I am not a billionaire or a millionaire, nor I had achieved anything that can motivate you or you should listen to. I am a chemical engineer who loves to blog and here are some learnings of my life that can still you can feel relatable.

    Growing up in middle class family and having dream to do something big is a wide definition of me. Unlike every other person, ups and down in life had taught many lessons to me as well. Life in not only about studying hard and get a job and earning money. What I believe is working to make yourself financial freedom should be the purpose of life. Just think yourself as wealthy, independent, making your family happy and able to provide every necessity feels like.

    You had read that if you do something wrong, you will get learnings but not everyone should get to the phase and not everyone can afford to fail. One can learn from others mistakes as well and can save time and energy from getting failed to get that learning. If enen 5% of person reading things that I think learn too late in life got benefited, I will be happy and with this thought, let us start this post.

    Is Learning is Important in Life?

    Yes, learning is always important and it is recommended that learning is important in any phase of life. World is running at its full pace and so do technology. Along with the time, things like technology, working culture and even human brain is evolving. Hence to match with the speed of time, we need to learn continually else you will remain behind of others.

    What did you learn too late in life?

    If I had to pen it down, there are lots of learning that i learn till now and are important as well as falls in to the section of learn too late in life. Let us take is positively as better than never. Now, without wasting more time, let’s us get into the lessons i learn too late in life.

    IIT Tags matters.

    I am a Chemical Engineer and the only thing that is wrong in my professional career is not to have a tag of IIT. I had completed my bachelor’s from an average university i.e. Gujarat Technological Universities.

    If you are a person from the science stream or an engineer to be specific, you had either faced this or will. Some organizations only prefer IIT tags, so prior to getting into the interview, your opportunities are narrow down. The moment you scored less than the qualified marks in JEE examination, you will lose eligibility in some companies.

    People don’t value you, they value money.

    As I grow up, I start to encountering situation where people not giving preference to you. Sometime they just hate you but will talk sweet if you have money or a better financial status. What I feel is work on yourself and try to identify real friends who are with you for you and not for your money.

    Money is like a Dettol, it can kill 99.9% of your problems.

    If you are of the mentality that money can’t buy happiness then you must do the exercise that I ask you to do. Trust me, it will hardly take 3 minutes. Take out pen and paper, even your phone notes apps will work, and write down all the problems that you have in life and want to fix it. Now read two to three times and think about the only solution i.e. money. You will be amazed to see that most of the problems can be fixed or will not even arise if you have lots of money.

    This is what the power of money. Even I belive that not every thing you can buy from money, but it money with which you can keep your family, loved ones happay and provide the basic needs like food, cloth and shelter. Money can give you finanacial freedom and for me freedom is happiness

    One should focus on Self-Development

    Self development can be the biggest thing that you can give it to yourself which will help you to be a completely amazing person. Self development is not only about reading self development books and over the night you become a better person. This is a life long process which takes time. Apart from reading, you need to incorporate in your life. This will help you to improve you as a person, improve your skills, knowledge and competencies.

    Everyone must cultivate self-love

    Closer ones will hurt you the most. You will experience once in a life for sure. A persons enters in your life will make you happy but not everyone are meant to remain in your life for life time. You will become powerful you don’t get hurt or don’t bother someone’s presence or absence.

    Sometimes simple NO can save you from suffering.

    It’s a human tendency that they want to be liked by everyone and in pleasing everyone we somewhere suffer us. Stop being  kind generous at the cost of your happiness.

    A simple formula that I follow while saying no is, I think over the matter and talk to myself is this matters to me or I will do just to treat the person nicely? If the answer is no then I will say no and viseversa.

    Saying direct no can also sound rude, so use gratitude work along with no but still not explain. Instead of no, you can use No, I have some other work to do.

    There is nothing like a Passive income

    Work at young age to enjoy life.

    Work is essential to earn bread and butter and the person who work hard at initial stage of life, can enjoy life afterwards. If you don’t study at your initial days and choose to enjoy life, watching movies, chilling on Netflix, for the whole life you have to scarify comfort and you won’t have time to enjoy life as you had to work at same efficiency even you grow old. Instead if you choose to scarify free time at in your 20s, you will have more time in your 40s  where you can have all taste of life.

    Work hard but not at the cost of sleep.

    You might had heard a saying that is “A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor. Working hard is essential in order to get success but health is also an asset. Metal strength is also important. If you don’t take proper sleep, you won’t feel fresh and won’t get clear thoughts. So work hard but not at the cost of sleep. Take proper rest and optimized you time, manage your time. There in nothing like you don’t have time to sleep. The real problem is you are not managing your time properly. If you manage your time perfectly, you will get enough time to work and sleep.

    Work contributes 99% in success and luck make 99% into 100%. Luck matters.

    Not every things can works according to you. The things that are in your control is work and hardwork. Don’t make yourself fool by making excuses and find the reason not to work. Learn, work and execute to your level best and then leave it to the destiny.

    Simple formula that I follow in my life is I understand that not all paramertes in getting successing in work are not in out hands. The thing which we can control is working on it so why to worry about the things that are not in your control.

    There is no easy money, Long term investment is a key to create wealth.

    Humans found attracted towards easy and comfortable things and in search of comfort we often go behind easy money. There is no easy money and if it really exist why the persons are working hard all over the globe to earn money. The only way to earn money is increase your knowledge and work hard. Don’t fall in the trap of easy money, you might end up getting into financial loss or in danger.

    Knowledge can give you the power if you know how to apply it.

    Motivational speeches, self development books are useless unless you don’t follow in real life. Reading self-help books and not executing is actually more dangerous then not reading and not implementing. Complete Reading self-help books, productivity podcast can make you feel that you had accomplished something by instead you need to think the other way that you had learned sometime and its time to work accordingly.

    Practice meditation

    Keeping body and mind calm is extremely important for your professional and personal life. When your body is calm you can think clearly and it improves your productivity. There are various benefits of meditation that one can’t think of it. So start meditating  

    Time is slipping,

    Everyone has Good and bad times, ups and downs in life but sitting aside and thinking why this happens to me won’t come up with solution. You need to have every taste of life so that you can value the good things. Always remember, whether it’s a good time or bad phase, it will past and you can’t do anything about it. What you can do is enjoy every phase, learn from those period and make yourself prepare for the upcoming phase.

    My thought on lessons learned too late in life

    Unlike reading motivational books, self help content will not help you unless you let that thoughts sink in your mind and start executing. Similarly learn the things from my mistakes, my learnings and work on your self to get a better version of you that you want to see tomorrow.

    Summing Up

    These were the things that can be considered as an answer to What did you learn too late in life?. Hope you get something from my lessons learned in life and you will learn valuable lessons from this and instead of learning from committing mistakes and then learn, will grab the learning and move forward in life. Don’t forget to share your thoughts on this question in the comment section.

    Self love techniques and how to love yourself

    “I love me.” How often do you say this? Never!! Or say a very few times in comparison to “I love you.”

    My question to us is that why can’t we love ourselves as much as we can love others. Let’s face it, we all have spent a good period of our lives loving and caring about others which often leave us lacking in loving ourselves. Today, we will explore some self love techniques that will force you to learn how to love yourself first and learn how to practice self love

    Self Love Meaning – What is self love

    Self-love is one of those core feelings which should be nurtured by every human being, I repeat, every human being.

    As a matter of fact, for many of us, Self-love might sound like a luxury rather than a necessity, to those I would like you to ask that exactly in the midnight, when the dark clouds of loneliness and failure surround you and you just can’t stop weeping, who comes to your escape. Of course you, you are the one who recollects all the broken pieces of your heart, instill the thoughts of positivity and prepare yourself for the next day.

    So yes, you deserve all the love, the world possesses. Yes, you are worth it. 

    Self-love is falling in love with yourself first, to choose yourself even when others refuse to. It is about being deliberate in taking time for yourself for the betterment of your mind, body, and soul. Self-love is important because to love ourselves is to recognize the full spectrum of our potentials. It is about replenishing and refreshing your spirit in different ways.

    According to Psychology – Self-love is the secret key for mental health and well being, keeping depression and anxiety at bay.

    Hence always learn to love yourself because, at the end of the day, you’re all you’ve got.

    Let’s make our self-love game strong by indulging ourselves into these self love techniques & habits.
