Acharya Prashant addresses a student's concern about the difficulty of socializing in college after being a loner during JEE preparation. He begins by asking the student about her level of drive and focus during her preparation, to which she replies she was completely into her studies. He points out that she had a clear purpose then, which made socializing unnecessary. The purpose was bigger than the company of friends. Now, after entering IIT, that purpose is gone, and she feels the need for so-called soft skills, communication, and relationships because she is now relaxed and seeking pleasure and fun. Acharya Prashant advises that clearing the JEE is not the final attainment; it is nothing. It at best guarantees bread and butter and an upper-middle-class life, which doesn't mean much. He warns that what she is seeking now—socialization and relationships—will push her deeper into mediocrity. He emphasizes that a person or a group of people cannot be the purpose of one's life, especially for a woman in Indian conditions, who must not let her guard down. He urges her to maintain the same fire and spirit she had during her JEE preparation throughout her life. He suggests that instead of seeking company, she should give herself a new, great purpose. This could be excelling in her studies to become a great scholar, or excelling in co-curricular activities like sports, debating, or dramatics, which are abundant on an IIT campus. He states that if what one is doing carries value and importance, the right kind of socialization and company will happen on its own. The central identity of a person like her, who has proven her ability to excel, must be to continue to excel, learn, realize, and ultimately be liberated. This fact should govern all her life decisions.
