Conventional is a good fallback position isn’t it?
This blog is not easy and it took me two hours to write it and it’s probably because of the fact that I cannot decide whether conventional is a good fallback position or not. Conventionalism would have to depend on the person and where do you see yourself and what kind of person you are. This blog is so interesting and important, especially to young graduates, like me. Conventional is a good fallback position but it is neither credit-worthy, nor professional. As young graduate professionals, I will be expected to fallback into the conventional boat. For example, do things in a text-book style and so on.
When one agrees spiritually to just do the bare minimum or not think outside the box, that person may achieve his/her goal but would he/she exceed their expectations. Conventional is a safe approach to life; however you cannot get anything if you are not willing to take risk. Change can be difficult but the rewards can be well worth it. So swim against the stream, you should take this thing as normal and fun.
I think conventional depends on the person you are, the experiences you have, the position in which you are currently. Conventional could be a good fallback or it could be a terrible at some stage, that means… it’s up to you. Conventional might be comfortable but it certainly won’t get us anywhere. The only thing that you have to do is to be yourself and show your creativity to the world out there. It will get you noticed if nothing else. And that is often all it takes!
