your help/guidance

[Guest guest]

Dear Pandit Bhooshanpriya,

 

After being in very unproductive, hostile and discriminatory

environments for my higher education over the past 5 years, this past

August I was fortunate to get a job at a university working in a

biomedical research lab as a lab manager. As you already know my

circumstances required that I leave my studies with a Masters degree,

Though I have a good job and am in a much better nurturing environment

I am not happy. I feel that I should have gotten my PhD but it seems

God did not want the same. My current job does not pay very well, I

have to travel a total of 3 hours everyday which is very tiring and

there is not much room for growth. It does however ensure a paycheck

however little and I do have peace of mind because my boss is very nice.

 

I also have concerns about me personally. I am unhappy with how I am

as a person. I have become very lethargic and fat and I feel extremely

sleepy all the time. Looking back at the number of years I put in

towards my PhD and then having to leave with a Masters instead causes

me immense depression and I don't feel like putting any effort into

anything. Are there any remedies that you can suggest that would help

me overcome this?

 

I am at a stage now where I am reevaluating what I want and what I

want to do. I know that I don't want to be doing the work that this

job entails for very longI would like to study more but not in

biomedical research. I want to be able to earn enough money so that I

am financially very wealthy and can make a significant difference/

contribution to society. Do you recommend that I go back to school and

do a masters or a phd in some other field? Or do you recommend that I

try to change jobs? Is it possible for you to guide me or suggest any

remedies that will help me attain fame/wealth in a field that I would

excel at?

My birth details are December 13, 1980 time 9:00AM place Long Beach

CAlifornia USA.

 

Many Thanks,
