CIRCA 1980s/90s
Many of us have chosen careers that were either advised by our family, friends or decided by fate (we had to choose career based on the marks scored by us in the previous exams or just because our brother/sister/close friend was pursuing the same career). The point is that the career path was chosen in many cases, without any systematic analysis of our aptitude. Many of us may not even be aware of our strengths and weaknesses.
The simple reason behind all this agony and frustration could be that you are in the wrong field and a little professional guidence will help you to understand your aptitude better. Good Career counselling helps in choosing the right career which forms the foundation for a successful professional career.
