Frankly speaking, sometimes I felt same symptoms too.

In my training career, I saw lots of cases of IT people who are affecting from above symptoms.

Daily skill upgrade becomes my oxygen and without it, I cannot live. I didn’t want stereotype career. IT career provides me adventure, excitement, new learning, change, a suspenseful moment in life which is my passion.
