Exploring Inspiration and Career Lessons in the Movie 3 Idiots

It has the humor that will make you laugh.
It has the emotions that will make you cry.
It has tried to show bits and pieces of life,
And of course, the average student's plight.
It has shown the importance of following your heart
And made cautious efforts not to hurt anyone apart.
The importance of simplicity is much more than money.
Life, feelings, and emotions are important and really not funny.
Interest and happiness go hand in hand.
This is very true; follow it, and success will be in your land.
I have seen all this in this wonderful movie.
Kudos to all for their efforts in making a meaningful movie.
I will give 100% to the movie called "3 Idiots,"
And would advise all to go see and be an idiot.
It is free advice for you all.
Follow it or leave it; it is your call.

Hi Deepa,

It's true...

It would have been much better if 'YOU' is replaced with 'US' and 'YOUR' with 'OUR'.

Dear Deepa,

The poem is really very inspiring, and I also suggest everybody to see the movie which is full of inspiration and courage.

The movie has done its work when people like us are composing poems or deriving management lessons out of it. Great movie and indeed a great poem :-)

Kudos

For a change, it was pleasing to read verse and rhyme.
"3 Idiots" reveals that education must change; it is high time.
Not following your heart would be like committing a crime.
The right career would keep you forever fresh as the morning, warm water with lime.

Whether through prose or poetry, it is important to create this impression.
In life, it is important to follow your calling and vocation.
Chances of success increase if one follows one's passion.
If everybody collectively does it, we can be a great nation.

Jokes apart, it is said that in India, we do not have expertise in career transition like in the West. However, this movie has highlighted the message - "Make your passion your profession" on http://mypyp.wordpress.com well. India also must have sites like www.careerspice.com, www.passioncatalyst.com, or www.vocationalcoach.com for things to fructify.

Hi Deepa,

It's really a nice poem you wrote, and it's true. It's a very touching movie for those who see it very seriously. Amir's movies all give some learning.

No, Ravi. The movie is not trying to portray suicide as a solution. If you choose that path, you will undoubtedly lose something. The character committed suicide because he did not receive an extension for the project he was working on. Let me outline what he lost:

1) Success - If he had worked diligently and with full dedication, there was a possibility of achieving success. As you may have observed, Amir Khan's character completed the project the student was working on. If one person can succeed, so can another. The key was to believe in oneself.

2) Happiness - By resorting to suicide, we only transfer sadness to our loved ones, especially our parents. By striving and persevering, we might generate new ideas to tackle projects that initially seem like failures. Trust me, our parents would be happiest seeing our commitment to our endeavors.

P.S. The movie also depicts many other valuable lessons. I urge you to focus on the positives rather than fixating on the negatives immediately.

Please try to see the positive aspects in every situation.
