I'm 29. I have wasted 7 years for government exam preparation. What should I do?

Here is my story . I passed out in 2015 and spend 4 years for govt exams preparation. In 2019 I came across a emerging field called data science. I did some research and got interested in it. In august 2019 i packed my bags and shifted to banglore and started my data science certification. I. Feb 2020 I got a 25k salary job. Today 5 years later I am earning good I am planning to buy a car and planning to buy a house.That is my side of the story.

I did not answer your question but put forward my point of view and my understanding. It's ok if you don't agree with my points. Hoping for your better future buddy. All the best 👍

In the present job market where unemployment is an issue data science and aiml fields are booming like anything where they are garnering around 3–4 lakh jobs in India. Moral of the story check the trends of job market and learn the skills accordingly.

Dnt be fooled by movies which say do what your heart says kaam main maja aana chahiye. Each job needs discipline and focus so u won't be enjoying it.

Govt exams are good but at the end its a job dnt make it your life.

The geography of India matters for job market. For example a bcom pass guy might get a 10–15 k job or can be unemployed in his hometiwn. But if that same person goes to banglore and looks for jobs in financial background can easily start from 25 k till a good salary .

Do you think most people would rather be a certain race or are most people happy with the race they are?

You can learn any skill. For example if you think u can't code its just a misconception . U try hard and focus u can code too . Don't keep mental blockades.

A person who has been through govt exams and upsc exams . Working on skills would be childsplay as such person hold the power, patience and grit required.

Make a list of trending skills present in job market. For example 10 jobs are present identify the correct field for yourself and start learning.
