For future research and project leaders..

In the previous article the entire focus was on being introspective and to fathom the lane of research that drives you. Take-in the topic further, through the means of this article let us take a sneak- peak into the next step towards being a successful researcher.

Once you are aware of your source of research interests and passion, hopefully, the desire is strong enough to enable you to keep walking through the tunnel of hardships and roadblocks till you manage to reach the light of knowledge and solution for mankind. Choose an area for which you have a strong urge to work for be it for developing that field or to contribute towards the already successful field. The choice is yours, whatever catches your fancy and makes you believe that you can successfully deliver and develop yourself as an individual and team member professionally is what forms the most determining step in the series of becoming a researcher. Also to be taken into consideration, is in what capacity you can contribute? Initially, guidance of someone who is already a pro in your chosen field is deemed important just like a gardener nurtures and waters a plant, a guide plays a similar role in your career - strengthening of your roots and appraising you. Starting it at grass-root level, i.e.; introduction of understanding the concepts of research at the high school level and encouraging students to take up research can play a greater role in conditioning the students at reaching the level and meeting the requirement criterion that a researcher or project manager is expected of. Thus, to brighten up the research and development prospects of India and to take it to match it to the level of other Nations, the key is to start young, start fresh within the resources available.
