Engineering

Try to google engineering and probably 1st result you would see is something like 

Engineering is the designing, testing and building of machines, structures and processes using maths and science. Studying it can lead to a rewarding career.

Is this rewarding career able to build a rewarding life ? sometimes yes sometimes no manyatimes not known.

From past 17 years I have been an engineer and have been living among great group of engineers. 

Like everyone breath they have issues too.


I wonder how come Engineers have issues by definition they have to design, test, build using math science. 

By definition their job is to create solutions to issues using all knowledge acquired, not just in matter of months or years but it is more than a decade of learning that goes into getting an engineer out. 


How come still they are frustrated?

How come they are still miserable? 


Ask me why I feel they are frustrated and miserable, just look at amount of memes that come of office, work-life-balance and look at the kind of sad managers who spent years rotting in same place to get to top and got to top only to understand they problems have tripled. 


Now if I ask people to think about their life and use logic they might get into loop of overthinking, because they don't know what to think about.


So to conclude my expectation is....

Apply your education in your own life first 

Build tools and process that keep you happy, it is never too late to apply what you have studied. 

your engineering skill is not finite and the employer who has enslaved you will not fire you just if you attempt to apply any skill to your own life to make it better 

if you are engineer it is not that you only need to use that knowledge at a job, your life is more important than just a job 


Please be a happy human by being Engineer  of your own life.
