I remember a time when my colleague and friend, Anand, came to me for advice. He was trying to decide which college would be best for him to pursue his bachelor's degree. Since I had already completed my bachelor's in urban planning from a well-regarded university in Rajasthan, he wanted my opinion. My university had a four-star rating, and I was familiar with the system and how everything worked. He had already shortlisted a few colleges, but I recommended my own university. I explained the system to him in detail, and he ultimately decided to go there. I was really happy that he took my advice. We could share a lot of resources, as our syllabus would be similar. Being a senior, I could offer him guidance and practical help. He wouldn't have to buy extra materials, as he could use the ones I had purchased for my competitive exams. I think that's why I was so happy. Even after that, I've continued to offer him advice on his career and well-being.
