📖 Dreams Stuck In Trap

The degree was not the trap. The job was not the trap. The real trap was believing there was only one road.

You were told:

Study hard → Get a degree → Get a job → Build a good life.

But what happens when you graduate and still can't get an interview?

What happens when companies ask freshers for experience?

What happens when college ends, but another expensive classroom begins?

And what happens when you have skills, dreams, and ambition—but don't know where to start?

Dreams Stuck In Trap explores the reality faced by today's students, fresh graduates, job seekers, freelancers, and aspiring entrepreneurs.

This book takes you beyond the traditional "get a degree and get a job" mindset and explores different ways of building a career in a rapidly changing world.
