Heard of the term ‘delayed gratification’? Simply put, it means waiting for what you want now for something better later. And if you are a student or a fresher, you might not like what I about to say… But, you should ideally look for ‘delayed gratification’ at this stage. You're likely eager to start achieving your life goals as soon as possible. But, early in your career, focus on gaining knowledge, skills, and experience rather than a perfect work-life balance. This doesn’t mean you should ignore your personal life, but understand that what you build now will support a better life later. This could be: 📌Taking on challenging projects or a low-paying job that gives you immense hands-on experience. Take it up. Don’t chase money. 📌Invest time in additional courses or certifications related to your field/interest 📌Developing transferable skills (communication, critical thinking, project management etc) All of this will help you gain valuable experience and skills that will make you more competitive in the job market and set you up for career advancement and growth. #CareerAdvice #Freshers #DelayedGratification
