A poor education decision which made life useless

in #story7 years ago

My education was a complete disaster, When I was in 10th Class I was a brilliant student scored 90% .My family members and my teachers thought he had a bright future ahead, They all wanted me to go in science field because its has very high pay and I did the same opted science in 11th class but it turned out to be a terrible decision.I didn't studied at all nor i did went to my school nor did i appeared in exam which result into 1 year waste. The reason i didn't study because at that time i wanted to learn new things which can make my brain expand but instead of that i was narrowing my brain by memorizing trillions books word to pass in exam.
Anyways , I move on and found another good school it was affiliated with Cambridge and opted commerce, For the first time in my life i was really enjoying my studies.Then i understood my strong points were math, business & accounting.After 2 years i finished my 12th class ,my family was not so proud of me they always wanted me to do science.Studying at Cambridge school cost my elder brother too much money and he told me he was not going to put single penny for my university(he was the only earner in my family)I had no choice but to opt for bcom external(where you don't go to university just give exam once in a year). Now again i Started disliking my studies and scored just 40% in 3 years.

After 6 years of higher education journey I release one thing that my decision was wrong choosing commerce instead of science.The people who belongs to lower middle class family should always choose education based on high pay job and rich people can join whatever they want.I understood that only rich students can choose whatever study they like where else a poor student should choose a education based on his/her situation.Do to my childish decision my whole future is destroyed I hope no one make this kind of silly mistakes in life.Now I'm a 21 year old a useless man with a useless degree ,no future ,financially bankrupt,doing nothing just waiting for time to pass.

At 17 years of age, I walked away from a $50,000.00 National Merit Scholarship because I didn't think I was focused enough for college. I just turned 43 and make just enough, mostly in scholarships, to be a full-time student. My Cisco CCNA exam is right around the corner but doing something useful will ultimately be more important than making the money. What you regret now, what you regret at 30, 40, on your deathbed even are completely different beasts all together.....
