How Most of us are Sitting in the Wrong Classroom

By Benny Prasad

Benny Prasad talks about the story of his childhood days, of how he was admitted into a school that followed a highly academic system - a system well-recognized by our society, and a system he just could not adapt to. 

He suffered miserably due to this, often being ridiculed and severely criticized by his teachers and his own parents. His father, being an aerospace scientist, having come from tough financial backgrounds, wanted his son to attain the same. 

The speaker counters this idea with the quote “you can’t get a Benz car experience from a Maruti 800” Living in this society, you are compared everywhere, every time, and with everyone, just for being yourself. The speaker struggled with this, in addition to a congenital asthma condition. His situation became so bad that by the age of 16, he was given only 6 months to live. 

Even then, Benny describes how being treated as a shame to society and to his family, he had no desire to live one extra day, and was actively contemplating suicide. The system had deemed him a failure in life.

At the lowest point of his life, the speaker claims he heard the voice of Jesus Christ, giving his life a new purpose and a new meaning. It was this moment that created all the difference in his life. 

The speaker explains how most of us are “sitting in the wrong classroom”.   He explains  why we do not feel passionate about something or are lazy in putting all out efforts into something. In order to place your footprints on the uncharted terrain, you need to have courage; you cannot just follow the system as it is. You need to follow your passions and your dreams.
