We are always told.

Understand you have to learn whole your life.
Man remains a student all his life whether it is learning to talk,walk or it is learning the art of living.Once you are born you get on a ship to learn and it lasts from your nursery to till whenever you are active in your life. So never think you can stop learning and start enjoying, the art of happy career is to enjoy while learning.
Struggle begins
However if you learn to work hard and out up your ambitions at the young age like in 10th and 12th standard you become a warrior, you can face any challenge that comes to you in your career. Take both the standards sincerely (there’s a difference between being serious and sincere)
Here are few tips to do before choosing career path.
1. Sit back with a pen and paper
After you are done with your main exams and decide to chose your career and follow the path take a pen and paper in your hand and start.
2. Start writing the jobs you would love to do.
Start writing any options that strike your mind including your favourite sports,hobbies and anything that you always wanted to become.
3. Scratch out
Now sit back and think for a while, scratch out the options you think are emotionally driven,illogical or impractical.
4. Discuss with your parents.
The remaining options should be shown to your parents because they are best advisors you could ever ask. They know the practical things in this world and would guide you write.
5. Research
Research on the fields you shortlisted and are interested in. Many times it happens like the field we are interested in does not yield good results for our livelihood. So somethings should be kept as hobbies and some as careers. Choose wisely.
6. Explore
There are many career options that you don’t explore much or are unaware of, so make sure you go through all the options before you come to any conclusion.
7. Talk to experienced
Talk to people who are experienced in particular field or who have cleared particular examinations, this will give you a deep outlook to the path you are going to walk on and what others say who already did this.
8. Talk to experts
Talk to career counselor or advisors. They will tell you more fields in your interests and guide you professionally which will make you more confident towards your career.
9. Take your time
Career option determines the life you want to live and you are about to live so take your time to choose what you want, do not hurry because this will lead to imbalance of your mental well being and your confidence if it goes wrong.
10. Back up plan
Last but not the least , most important. HAVE A BACKUP PLAN. This will make you more secure towards your career and also reduce the chances of failure. This is something many students don’t do and end up messing up. So sit back with your parents and have a back up plan.
All the best.
Suggested program:
1. You should be well informed (Research)
A basic step before moving to a different country is to surf the internet for information and resources.
If you know someone who has studied at the place where you are going that’s the best way to extract a variety of information.
You can contact university personnel for the information regarding your stay and study pattern.
It is always better to be well informed about the weather of the country as it will help you in the bag packing.
You should have information about the currency exchange rate and carry enough money with you until you find an ATM or open a bank account. You can carry international debit cards with you, which you can use anywhere in the world and these cards are easily available at any nationalised bank in India.
2. Bag-packing
Ensure that you are carrying all the relevant documents and visas to allow you to study in the country you chose.
Enough prescription drugs for the length of your stay.
Electric adapters – because the shape of the electrical plug differs between continents, it is one of the essential things to be carried along with you.
Laptop and mobile chargers.
Winter in some countries is totally different from what we experience in India so pack lots of warm and waterproof outfits for the winter. Also, carry sweaters/hoodies, jeans, warm sleepers and shoes, coat/jacket, a special occasion outfit with you.
Travel book for the country you are visiting.
3. Prepare for living in a foreign country
From a cultural perspective, Australia, Europe or America are diverse and differ vastly from India. Although you may be worried about butchering the language and being criticised by the locals, the reality is that people appreciate your efforts in adopting their culture. Knowing the local language will benefit you a lot while shopping and travelling, as English is not necessarily spoken in every country.
Try to have some knowledge of the history and political background of the country you are visiting so that you can be more familiar with the people there.
4. Student accommodation
You can contact your university for the accommodation facilities and they will often help you out with this.
You can register yourself on www.hostelworld.com where you can get an idea about accommodation in many countries on a cheaper basis.
Also register yourself on www.isic.org to get an international student identity card. It will benefit you in getting discounts on accommodation charges at many places.
5. On arrival
The first thing you are supposed to do is register yourself with the internal affairs ministry within 24 to 48 hours. Registration will help you to legalise your stay in that country and later may help you in getting temporary residency. However, there are different rules for different countries which you will have to understand thoroughly.
The next important thing is to register at the local Indian embassy. It is of great value because there you will find people with whom you can talk in Indian language and that will somewhat reduce the feeling of homesickness. They might also help in solving any of the problems you are facing in the country of your stay. In addition, they organise a variety of programmes related to Indian culture which can be a source of entertainment for you.
6. Bank account
It is recommended to get a bank account in the country you are studying. This will allow you to pay the bills and keep your money safe. For this, you will require a passport, proof of residence and proof that you are a student.
7. Earning while learning
There are some jobs called ‘blue collar jobs’ which can offer you an opportunity to work part-time so you can earn some extra pocket money for expenses or entertainment. For these jobs, as well as for the jobs you will take if you decide to stay in that country after graduation, you might need a work permit. It is very important to check these details so that you respect the local legislation and work legally.
8. Scholarships for international students
You can speak to your respective universities regarding finances which will be made available for your studies or else you can also find some external charities that can offer you financial aids in the form of a scholarship for studying abroad.
Additionally, you can access the Scholarshipportal website and see what are the scholarships available for you depending on the country where you want to study.
You can also check out the Studyportals Scholarship to get some help on financing your studies abroad.
9. International calling
Living far away from your country and people will make you call frequently to India. In that case, you may ask whether my current phone will work in a foreign country and the most probable answer is yes. However, you will have to change your sim card and will have to buy a new one. After that, you can activate an international pack for calling to India and at very cheap rates.
Another way is to use Skype or Viber from your laptop or computer which will enable you to have a video chat free of cost with your closed ones. You can also use social networking site Facebook for video chat. I don’t think young Indian students will have any problem calling back home. What do you say, guys?
10. Travel
Here the international student identity card which I have suggested will be of value for cheap travelling charges. It will also enable you to shop across various shopping centres where you can get a nice discount with this card.
The best way to travel is using local transport like buses, trams, and trains. You get passes for buses and trains which will significantly reduce your expenses. You can also hire a taxi but it will be quite expensive comparatively.
So, guys, these are a few basic things you are supposed to know while studying abroad. I hope you will enjoy your stay and also will appreciate enormous natural and cultural beauty that awaits you.
