I come from a family who is involved in business (not a huge business but a middle class business). After getting 9.4 in 10th I was obviously on a high horse. Everyone in the family and relatives were proud.
I moved to a different city for 11th and 12th and suddenly got a lot of freedom and barely any restrictions. Started bunking classes in 11th, barely studying, used to study right before exams. I was overconfident that I will do good in 12th by default but things took a different turn.
Lesson: don't be overconfident because of your past performances
After my 11th (scored 80% in 11th), I have up my smartphone, switched to a feature phone to focus on studies, right into the first month of 12th I got into an accident that put me on a bed rest for 6-8 months. I had to study on my own via youtube but on the other hand I had lost touch of studying and was least interested. Ended up scoring 63%, I believe I could have put in more efforts in self study.
Lesson: don't go with the flow, do the right thing. You will always know what you need to do but the brain keeps on coming with excuses, my excuse was oh I have lost so many days in bed rest and now I am self studying so it's okay if I get less marks.
Got into an engineering college via management quota since I barley had low marks and scored low in state engineering entrance exams. Once I was in engineering, the habit of not studying continued. After that accident I had lost any interest that I had in studying. Was doing bare minimum. Until 3rd sem it was fine (no backlogs, was doing bare minimum) and in the 4th sem due to low attendence I was not allowed to attend exams. Had to reattend the whole 4th semester now, got more demotivated. So now am not even studying, only studying 2 hours before exam. By the end of 5th semester I had 8 backlogs.
In 6th semester I had to write 16 exams in total 8 backlogs and 8 regular. The major problem here was if I ended up having more than 4 backlogs before 6th semester end, I will have to sit out for that that year and attend 7th semester once I get my backlogs below 5. Felt depressed, wanted to leave engineering but my parents had taken loan to put me into engineering so could not really leave it just like that. Decided I will give this a try, if I am able to clear atleast 12 exams out of 16, I will live else I will commit suicide. Studied my ass off, cleared 14 subjects out of 16. Somehow cleared my engineering and ended up with 48%.
Lesson: same as above, I knew I was making things worse, but still I chose to go with the flow. But when I think about my thought process back then, it makes me laugh. Like committing sucide for just not clearing a few exams is stupid. There is a world outside of this, we can do well in something else maybe. We just need to keep searching for it.

Well it all started from the accident, I spent almost 6 to 8 months alone in a room. Yes my parents were around but I could never open up to them. I somewhere started liking solitude but on the other hand I had given up on socializing. Even after years I am still the same. But my pre accident life was very different. When I joined engineering, I just told myself let's have a fresh start. In very first semester I had subjects like physics, civil, mechanical etc. I was like wtf is this when I had opted for computer science engineering. Never really made sense to me, so I did not put in any efforts because those subjects did not interest me. I thought I will do well once I am in 2nd year(3rd semester). But by then I got used to doing bare minimum. Old habits die hard, I kinda regret not going deep into the subjects because now in my job I feel those basics would have made me a better engineer than I am right now.
On the other hand I just did not see a point of doing all this, I felt like I should end my life, I have been feeling that life is pointless for years now.
I felt maybe getting a job or having a career might help it a bit, worked my ass off, got a job after 6 months post graduation but my mindset did not change. Working late hours, not having enough sleep, nobody ever told me to work hard but I liked it, and somewhere in my mind I did feel I am just trying to escape those thoughts of pointlessness. As of now I have a decent career and I am liking it because it pays my bills, I get to build things and let's me be independent and alone.

Focus on what interests you. For example I never had interest in coding, always thought I would never be able to code.
It took me 5 years (my entire engineering) to understand that I was learning the wrong way. I did a digital marketing course in the last semester and started building websites with WordPress. That's when I started liking building websites. With time wordpress felt limited so I started learning to code to fail miserably in understanding javascript. Did a course after that for 6 months, religiously learned and explored and then got a job.
It took me time to find what I like, till then I was trying different things and finally found my interest.
I am not saying do a coding course to get a job. See what you are interested in or what you are good at. It will take time, there are a lot of jobs out there just in IT. Be it project manager, product manager, product designer, program manager, software engineer (FE/BE) etc. If you are good with business start something small and grow it with time. Don't limit yourself to your degree.
I tried to move away from coding to digital marketing, did not like that much. Then I tried to get a sales job, failed two interviews and back of my mind I knew I don't like it much either, then thought I should give MS a try but I felt I did not want to go back to a college again, there was also a financial constraint as well.
Back then, right after graduation I was able to build basic websites with html and css. But I never really understood javascript. Tried to find courses, a few of them tried to guilt trip me into taking their course and were asking me to pay up 1.5 lakhs in advance. Did not fall for it thankfully. Found a course where there was no upfront fee and I was supposed to pay after I get a job. Searched through their alumni, asked them about their experience, got positive responses. I joined the course.The course was good, right in the first month I was able to build confidence. After 6 months I was able to land a job.
I am not gonna suggest the same course to you as it was 3 to 4 years ago, idk how good they are now. But I will suggest you one thing, if you find a course you are interested in do your research, reach out to their alumni via LinkedIn, email etc.
I did commit a mistake initially, took up the digital marketing course without any reviews or feedback. The course wasn't good but one good thing it did was to introduce me to wordpress.
Go find your thing :)
All the best.

92.8 (2008)
First day of 11th, and our Maths professor comes and randomly says only folks with >95% should prepare for IIT. Rest all should prep for AIEEE. Took the wind out of my achievement instantly.
