→Doesn't matter what school/college you're in, online sources related to anything, that too mostly free are available for all of us. Use them. Invest your time/money to educate yourself.
→To build a personality...
We need to focus on two-three core areas that are- hard skills(pick what builds curiosity in you), speaking (communication skills)- how expressively yet simply you can convey your thoughts. And that usually comes from the people we look up to. Don't just be a fan of someone, study them, do research about them.
→Views on a video is NOT something that you should look up to see if the content is worth seeing, valuable or not.
→How to be unique?
Be empathetic. A quality that a lot of people lacks in current times, try to build this quality in you. Try to understand what someone is going through and talk to them in that way, don't just throw your advices on them, try to be soft make them feel supported (A LOT OF people really need to learn this).
→How to start making money?
If you want to make a decent above pocket money types money (15K-20K) a month, that's easy. Even if you will work on that for a month or two, you can do it. (Freelancing), that's no big deal. But if you want to earn real money (up to 45K-50K) you need to go in depth in that niche. Invest yourself, your time-money in that. Time is your biggest asset. Stop blaming education system for everything, yeah, I understand there are some skills (marketing, etc) which are not taught by schools / colleges properly and you need in real life experience to learn them but a lot of things, courses are taught in schools and colleges correctly. It's YOU who is not studying and then you don't get a job or an internship and then you went on to blame the education system, don't do that.
→Being above average + real hard work + articulation = success
→How to elevate your communication skills?
Read! Write! Talk! Observe! Reflect! Practice! Repeat!
Develop the ability to connect. Observe and understand the person's strengths and weaknesses. It will make you a better colleague, a better classmate, a better friend, a better human in general.
→You don't need to dominate the room, you have to take people along with you and by having great communication skills, that's easy.
→Is your degree worth it? IIT or Non IIT?
Crisp and short answer is Yes (in the short term), No (in the long run) Explanation: It's not about having great skills(yes, it is, but read ahead please), it's about the trust you can get, if you got an opportunity, were you able to prove yourself in that one? The person who gave you that opportunity didn't regretted doing so? Psychologically, we will tend to believe / select someone whose presentation / branding is better, appealing etc. So of course, the person with the IIT tag will get the opportunity before you, just because your college is not so demanding, even if you're better than them. Yeah, once you've entered the industry, you'll gain experience and keeps getting better, than getting opportunities will be no big deal for you, but here I'm talking about the starting point/initial stage of your career.
So, make sure to not just learn and upgrade yourself but also to be more visible, online - offline, both.
→Top skills you (as a student) should learn- About data, cloud computing, AI & ML. Specialise yourself in a particular domain, basically.
→If you're someone who's not happy with their current college life and you keeps getting that feeling ki 'yahan toh mera kuch hone se raha'- that's your sign to just START, start your own research, study, be curious, there must be something that is exciting to you study that, specialise yourself in that.
→According to Dan Koe, there are three things are brain can do- Consume, connect and create. Be very mindful of that. Do things consciously and not on auto pilot.
→Don't be a loser, be a winner.
Be humble, don't act over smart, observe, study others, don't be a Kuye ka mendhak, get out of your bubble world, always be welcoming to new learnings.
→Train your brain to not think negatively, be resistant to negativity, toxicity and any bad traits like these.

→Future is unpredictable, be aware, keep yourself informed and continue learning new things.
