The rat race amidst people working in corporates is inevitable. Everybody wants to win it. But nobody knows the true finish line of their career. While it feels intriguing to read fancy corporate jargons & success stories on LinkedIn, it adds an overwhelming pressure in you to a level you can’t recover from.
I have stopped using LinkedIn. I do not want to declare to the world that I got a promotion working in Tolaram & sons pvt. Ltd. I do not want to show the world that I have got a character certificate from a random.com site. Neither do I want to see how others are faring in this rat race.
