Is the youth of India confident or confused?

In my point of view, youth of India is confused not confident. I am saying this because many youths want to become something else but they become something else and for lifetime they feel guilty for this. Indian youth take their decisions especially their "CAREER DECISION" in the pressure of their parents and society. The biggest drawback of India is that "THE INDIAN CITIZENS ARE PATH FOLLOWERS NOT PATH CREATORS". They just go on blindly following the path of the successful person without being aware of that that everyone has different ability, and concept to change the world. We have to understand one thing that everyone has different field of interest if Indian youth work in their field of interest and will create their own path they will surely get dynamic success. Successful people have been sharing their story to embolden us not to create their replicates. They share their feeling just to give us a message that everyone have different vision to see things. So, just understand your vision and enlighten your life. But Indian youth take this in a different and start to follow their path blindly. Indian youth thinks that if we blindly follow the path of one who is successful now no matter whether it is a student who was selected in IIT or a person who became successful in their life, we become successful. Actually to be honest it is not a mistake of Indian youth actually it is a mistake of their parents. I am saying this because, from childhood, parents taught us to be with the one who is so called "TOPPER" in your class, school or college and follow what they do only then you will become topper. See, these things are inside us since childhood, since childhood we are path followers. So, how we can get out of this trend easily. In India, unemployment is big an issue just because of all this stuff. In India, we don't have a platform for our field of interest. If we do Engg, medical, MBA or want to become IAS officer then it's ok we have lots of opportunities to show our skills but other then that we don't have a platform to show our interest. Even our society have a mindset like this that if a kid does Engg MBA medical or preparing for IAS then he or she is brilliant but kids want to become a dancer, see their future as a dancer then he or she is a fool. With this type of backward mindset, how India can become a developed country? Death ratio of Indian students is increasing day by day just because they are confused they chosen the wrong path and is not capable of bearing pressure of competition which forces student to end their life. That's why INDIAN YOUTH now a day is confused more than confident. The only way to overcome from this stuff is that Indian student needs to understand their vision, their ability to change the world and also I just want to say that parents should support their kids in their interest so that they can become emblematic for other.

The youth of a country are its greatest resource. They are the dreamers of tomorrow, the protagonists of the future, the inheritors and creators of the world to come. For a developing nation like India, with a vast populace divided among all age groups, the youth is even more important as they will have an important role in building the nation and changing it from a ‘developing’ to a ‘developed’ economy.

Well, categorizing a demographic segment as vast as the youth into either ‘confident’ or ‘confused’ is an exercise in futility, since every individual is different, and such broad, sweeping sentences do not do much beyond stereotyping people. Arguments can be made that the youth is confused, but similar arguments can be made that they are confident as well. In the end, it is a matter of perspective and a matter of belief. Belief in their potential, belief that they will be able to take the country forward and create a better life, not only for themselves but also for their fellow Indians.

The youth, I would say, is equally confident and confused. After all, such is life, a painting of many shades and not just two opposites of black and white standing in contradiction to one another. The same woman who is confident in her abilities to write and is working hard on her novel could be suffering from bouts of self-doubt and crippling anxiety.

The same boy who wants to become a footballer and is willing to sacrifice a lot and is striving towards that goal could be dealing with confusion over whether his sacrifices and his hard work will pay off, or whether he’ll become another footnote among the many who have failed to attain their goals, and eventually fallen by the wayside as life has gone on.

Many students are confused about what path to take in life after their high school years are done – the result of a lack of career guidance and proper counselling in schools. Then others are confident in their abilities, have done well throughout their academic years, and want to take the next step towards an international education or job, but are confused whether they will get their money’s worth and appropriate return on investment. Despite being confident in their abilities, they are unsure whether external factors will work in their favour because if they don’t, all their confidence and hard work will be for nought.

In this changing world, our youth is both, confident as well as confused, and perhaps a healthy mixture of both is necessary for them to make the best decision for their life. After all, overconfidence is as bad as excessive confusion, both ultimately only yielding stress.

However, at the end of the day, the youth are optimists, the purveyors of hope, the dreamers of far-flung dreams, and it is better to be confident and work hard than confused and floundering.

Hello friends,

So on this topic is the youth of India confident or confused I want to say that some quantity of youth in India is confident much most of the no. Of the youth is confused. So if we talk about the youth that is confident here I want to say that nowadays a youth is able to find out the interest where he or she wants to go and what he or she wants to pursue. The Youth of India is nowadays is much literate so that they can easily take the decisions what is good for them or what is not and accordingly they take the decisions. Youth nowadays is the pack of energy through which they find out their own potential and go for the field where they find their interest.

But if we talk about the youth that is confused here I want to say that most of the students in India are confused because they don't follow their own interest they go with the crowd like a student whose interest is in medical and instead of going to the medical he or she go for the b-tech wherein most of the students take. Admission and as a result, he or she would not be able to succeed much in his or her life. Recently, a survey shows that most of the b-tech students are not able to fulfil the computer requirements of the companies so they are being fired from the companies. Youth like those who instead of going towards the potential go for the advice of the others, the interest of the others, suggestions of the parents means the thing or the course that had been done by the parents etc. I am having a practical example of one of my friend who was having the interest in pursuing the training for the defence but he was not rejected for the 3 or 4 times and he dropped out pursuing the training of defence and he never again try to go for it and nowadays he is pursuing b-tech and what was the reason he followed the crowd and advice of the others.

There are many other reasons because of which the youth is confused like the fewer opportunities, reservations, corruption and so on. If we talk about reservation where the candidate who belongs to the SC or ST category would be selected for each and every post easily example is the exam of the IAS wherein the candidate who belongs to SC and ST category would be selected easily. We all are having the practical example wherein a student belongs to the general category and was having the rank of 91 but a girl who was belonging to the SC category and was having the rank of 350 or 365 and what was the result the boy of the general category was not selected and the girl was selected.

So, in all, I want to say that most of youth in India is confused instead of being confident.

Greetings to all, According to me, the majority of Indian youth is confused and some of them are very confident in the path of their life. Let's say this ratio of confused to confident is 80:20.

The reason behind this is that, flock of sheep flow in our country.

For example, if 2 people are selecting engineering rest of 8 out of 10 people is also go for engineering because there is hot talk in the market that there are good jobs and opportunities for engineers.

So, without thinking for a minute those 8 people have passed the first step in destroying their career and life. They don't understand that rest 2 people had interest in engineering that's why they pursued it.

Second is Resources. Like many people want to do work in which they have interest, but resources are not much or we can say those fields whose resources are abundant people go in that field making the others fields with lack of resources. For instance, if I want to become soccer player, but majority people in India play cricket, so what will happen? I won't get the same number of people to play and practice football like I get for cricket. This results in poor country infrastructure for a soccer player. So if I'm interested in sports either I'll end up playing cricket or else I'll be lost in this market.

Third, a lot of time pass of social media. We waste so much time in trolling someone that ultimately our life trolls us because Karma is a bitch. It won't leave you anyway and make you pay for your time waste. Social media nowadays don't give us information but it will give you something that will upset your mind, making you irritated for no reason.

Fourth, we don't know what we actually want to do. We think about future a lot. Like "What if I become an artist and my paintings will not be sold in exhibitions?" OR "I like arts but all my friends are becoming doctors, they'll be rich and I'll be not living a content life". Stop thinking too much. Keep calm and wait for your turn. No matter how great the talent is, Things takes time. You can't become a body builder in one month by taking a lot of supplements.

Make a plan on paper, search pros and cons on the internet, develop your interest and skill set. There is nothing to confused about.

Just don't get pressurized under parent or society. You'll definitely win.

Hello,

I respect everyone's word here but my thought is very different. I feel that; Indians youth especially, are not confused they are pressurised. Everywhere and every time we have people around who focused on to just demotivating youth. We are on that country where the honorable former president and a great scientist APJ Abdul Kalam stand as an example to tell people that nothing is impossible and everyone should have big dreams. There are uncountable people who were focused and achieved what they wanted and successful.

Indian youths are always pressurised they are forced to do what they don't want to do. If a kid wants to be a singer they will not polish him on his interest just start telling "no" there is no scope and study it's very important what would be your career.

If I would take any child example so initially he is forced to study by his parents and teacher and then he is forced to take option subject to show status to another relative that he took any prestigious subjects like maths, forced to score good marks, forced to do marriage at right time. Even forced to bring kids also to this world without having any maturity. It's hell, to be honest. If a child starts taking a stand for his wish then there is a sign of rudeness of a kid and he doesn't understand the world. It's hardly 10% person educated parents takes his child serious and motivate the kid to do what actually their kid wants. Otherwise, they will start telling you will become next Lata Mangeshkar, or Sonu Nigam etc. According to their definite knowledge. Why anyone to be like others, everybody wants to make their own identity at their on space. Nobody should be in a running situation. Today every youth is running for no reason. He could upskill himself for his own qualities. Parents are not giving riots to their children to make their own decision that is the reason every child has less decision-making power and somehow act like a confused person but to be very honest Indians are fabulous and they can achieve whatever they want to achieve. Every Individual has it's own talent and shouldn't be compared to others.

Everyone is special but that person can't be special for everyone.

Thanks for reading!

Have a happy life friends:).

The youth of India, like young people anywhere, are a diverse group with varying experiences, perspectives, and emotions. It's challenging to make a blanket statement that applies to all young Indians. However, I can provide some insights based on trends, research, and observations.

Factors contributing to confidence:

1. Growing economy: India's economic growth has created new opportunities for education, employment, and entrepreneurship, fostering confidence among young people.
2. Digital revolution: The widespread adoption of smartphones and the internet has empowered youth to access information, connect with others, and develop new skills.
3. Increased access to education: Improvements in education infrastructure and policies have led to more young Indians having access to quality education, boosting their confidence and aspirations.
4. Cultural exchange and globalization: Exposure to global cultures, ideas, and values has broadened the perspectives of young Indians, making them more confident in their ability to navigate the world.

Factors contributing to confusion:

1. Societal expectations: Traditional expectations from family and society can create pressure and confusion among young Indians, particularly regarding career choices and relationships.
2. Competition and uncertainty: The highly competitive job market and uncertain economic conditions can lead to anxiety and confusion among young people.
3. Mental health concerns: The stigma surrounding mental health issues and limited access to support services can exacerbate feelings of confusion and isolation among young Indians.
4. Rapidly changing social norms: The evolving social landscape, including changing norms around relationships, identity, and expression, can create confusion and uncertainty among young people.

Conclusion:

The youth of India are a complex and dynamic group, and it's difficult to categorize them as solely confident or confused. While many young Indians are empowered and confident, others face challenges and uncertainties that can lead to confusion.

Ultimately, the confidence and confusion of young Indians are intertwined, reflecting the complexities of growing up in a rapidly changing world.

Good morning one and all here ! I am Debarati Mitra and I would like to put forward my view regarding the present state of the youth mind of India.

The fact is the fast paced life and the ever growing competition is nevertheless pushing the youth towards a race they are completely unaware of. Whether to chase the dream the child dreamed of becoming, or to catch the race that'll put him up in the front row is the biggest question in every young minds. May be a student wanted to explore the ancient history of India. But soon due to peer pressure and parental influence, he'll be made to realize that it's not a very profitable thing he's thinking of, why not go with a professional course, say engiineering or medical. This is where the dilemma lies in. To choose between. And this is arising not only due to the societal setup but also due to the entire system that runs here. Children of today, the youth of tomorrow are confused than ever, as they are not allowed to take decisions before they enter the actual race. And when they actually enter the race, they have to depend on their parents and peers to decide what they should do! Why not? That ability to make and keep proper decisions has not grown in them. Not only with career, they are puzzled with their life too. Relations and breakups are so frequent among the youth as if it's a fun game. They aren't recognizing the true meaning of anything, whether there dreams or career or a relationship or LIFE.

I think the time has come to save our budding youth of India from drowning amidst the puzzling life.

The youth of India, you dream. Chase your dreams if they're for the good being of you and people around you. Be stable. Be confident. Be honest to the people and keep and make good relations with the people around you. Lead your life in such a way that makes your country proud.

It's your life. Just live it. Confidently!

Thank you !

According to me, youths are confident but somewhere they are confused. Youth have the willpower to do anything but confusion begins after 10th and 12th standard because students need to take streams in which they are interested or their skills can utilize maximum. So that they can become confident after their studies. Confusion happens when they don't follow their own choices and hear from others. Colleges help youngsters to build confidence and support their choices. Confusion is due to lack of job opportunities and communication skills. Thereafter students need to choose courses not for interest instead of for getting jobs which are having more opportunities in-country now. Students get confused on how to survive in this competitive world. But there is no need for becoming literate just for the sake of the name. I think a developed country can provide good job opportunities and hence increase the confidence of youngsters. Youth get respect and confidence when they have quite good communication skills and knowledge. Certainly, the government can initiate different campaigns related to career options for educated people which can help them to choose wisely. Youth have multiple goals in life but don't know how to achieve it, they need to set their priorities and prepare themselves for that. Nowadays, we have the biggest tool of social media through which we can reach different personalities. Youth need to follow a timetable and cut short time for mobile phone usage to the required to achieve success. We should think like a problem solver and when the majority of us will become an entrepreneur or will be doing good jobs, then we need to create jobs and try to generate employment as much we can. Every individual should have a fire for doing something for the nation to make it prosperous and beautiful again.

Yes, youth is an asset and backbone of our country but this youth will convert to a liability because of their confusion and less confidence and let's look out the reason behind this cause. Now, the main question that arises Is Indian Youth Adaptive to Change? Is they are still focusing and figuring the conventional steps to work out or they are keen to go for the out of the box? Change is not a wall that can be built on one day. Everyone knows there are no shortcut to success, but don't you think youth is more focusing to "Build the Rome in one day", they lack the patience and along with that there is a lack of guidance plays a major role but we can't neglect the fact the social animal always available on social networking website updating relationship status and their recent activities where everything is available on one touch are not interested in going to educated, experienced or counsellor to have a good piece of advice that can work for future. I can't deny the fact that yes there is lack of resources for majority part of youth but resources are the that can be developed and will not take much time and energy. Youth is not confused in their period of schooling or graduation but they are confused after completing them, after completing them they think now what to do? Now here the media and old thinking plays part. In a year about 77 lakhs people graduated and few get job and rest either go for either higher education or preparation of government service and for their family business. Only a very few choose a career after that in which they are confident. In government service examination success rate is very less around 0. 1 % Investing 2-3 years to it and getting none doesn't make you less confident. Higher education is making you non-eligible for various jobs.

The youth of India is a complex and dynamic entity, and the answer to whether they are confident or confused is not a simple one. On one hand, Indian youth are exposed to a wide range of opportunities, and they are increasingly confident in their ability to succeed. With the country's growing economy and technological advancements, young Indians are more connected to the world than ever before.

However, this exposure also brings its own set of challenges. The youth of India are struggling to balance their traditional values with the influence of Western culture. This can lead to confusion and uncertainty about their place in the world.

Additionally, the pressure to succeed in a competitive job market and the weight of societal expectations can also contribute to feelings of confusion and self-doubt.

*Factors Contributing to Confusion:*

- Cultural Identity Crisis: Struggling to balance traditional values with Western influence.
- Pressure to Succeed: Competitive job market and societal expectations.
- Lack of Clear Goals: Uncertainty about career paths and life choices.
- Influence of Social Media: Unrealistic expectations and comparisons.

Factors Contributing to Confidence:

- Growing Economy: Increasing opportunities and access to resources.
- Technological Advancements: Improved connectivity and access to information.
- Education and Skills Development: Investing in human capital and developing skills.
- Supportive Environment: Encouragement from family, friends, and mentors.

Ultimately, the youth of India are a diverse and dynamic group, and their experiences and emotions cannot be reduced to a simple label. While some may be confident and self-assured, others may be struggling with confusion and uncertainty.
