Friends, I would raise another very important point. In first world countries people aspire to be entrepreneurs. Their role models are Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Tim Cook and Sir Richard Branson. An entrepreneur creates value by organizing societal resources to create products and services. This process in turn creates jobs and improves overall well-being of people. Contrarily, a civil servant is the most useless person on planet earth, a blood sucking parasite. In developed countries, the reliance on government services to deliver public amenities have been reduced. This is because public servants are construed to be embodiment of inertia, red tape and labyrinthine bureaucracy. Such a person is drawn down by rules, procedures and laws. Even if he is motivated, he has to contend with powerful vested interests. Today, change is not being brought by government servants but by vibrant civil society, journalists and entrepreneurs. Each year thousands of young kids sit for the competitive exams. What for? This is such a waste of society's scare resources. Imagine 14000 young, able bodied people doing nothing but preparing for a mind boggling exam. Out of these only lucky 200 odd would be selected. Isn't this wastage on a gigantic scale? 13500 people with their hours and money on pursuing CSS. They could have set-up something good. I just wish that our youth should realize that business is the way forward and not government service. If you are dead sure, you can crack this examination sit for it. If not than try your hand at other things. Remember pass percentage of CSS is abysmal 2 - 3 percent. Always have a plan B.
