Work hard to rule your world

Yesterday evening, I had an interesting chat with my uncle [I already spoke about him in +]. It was about workaholism and success as an offshoot. His words paraphrased as: After 5-6 years down your career, you need to work just to kill time. And at that point, you starts hardworking just to your keep your interests alive. Basically becoming workaholics for sake of its interets. You work towards some goals blindly. When your got struck up in not reaching your goals, just look around. In the years of hardwork, you would have arrived at some product as offshoot, which can really make you a fortune. I read in a book about people who worked for supercomputers. For supercomputer's memory storage purpose, those reasearchers developed RAID arrays of harddisk. Even before supercomputers hits the market, those RAID arrays were phenomenal hits, thats an interesting offshoot to your hardwork towards your goal. My uncle started an engineering company in vetenary medicine, hardworked for 15 years, stumble upon fire alarms market someway and now making a lot of waves in firealarm panel manufacturing. If you have interests in your field of work, be an workaholic to win in life. His organisation's proposed expansion plan in chennai.

Nice post. Good story. I admire your uncle.

Isnt life about following dreams. But there is always the crossroad on whether you want to suffer in life by following ur dream becoz its unprofitable or just do a work for the sake of staying alive and keeping the family afloat.
