Learning is Not Compulsory... Neither is Survival

I happened to read this wonderful quote by Edward W Deming today and felt like sharing it with you. Unlike the early days of your schooling, once you reach college or move beyond, you will not have anybody compelling you to learn. You are on your own. This is especially true for the once away from home.

In the present day of competition, you know what happens when one doesn't learn and keep himself updated. For a person looking for getting placed at his dream company, this would mean to practice their previous placement papers, develop an understanding of their selection process and know the company better.

Do not wait for the placement season to show up at your doors to start preparing. Start it right away - otherwise, you are taking a call on your own survival.
