How do I …?

• Help discover the innate potential in myself

I am not someone else’s creation. I do not live

Other’s lives. I am not living someone else’s

Dream and neither am I imitating someone else.

• Outline a vision and direction for myself

If I do not know where to go I will go nowhere

• Identify the methods to move towards it and apply themIf I know not the methods I will go round & round

Questions to which I want answers

Do I know my characteristics, qualities, abilities and

limitations?

Do I know what I want to be and do in career and life—

My dreams?

What are the ways to achieve what I dream ?

Are they simple and doable?

How do I discover myself and my potential?

• Perhaps there are a set of questions which, if I answer, they will help me discover myself to an extent.

Some of the questions are:-• What was the nature of the family I was born into—

nuclear, joint, rural, urban, well to do or not well to do, religious, disciplinarian and so on..?

• Which are the people who somehow impressed me or influenced me and for what reason?

• Which subjects, things, topics, activities seemed to hold my interest most?

Contd..

• Out of a possible 100 how much did I miss out learning during my school? Can I write down what I missed out?

• Same as above in case of college?• Am I obstinate, short-tempered, impulsive, lazy,

wasting time, thinking more but doing little, postponing things, more of gossip less of value, critising people, complaining of things, cursing my luck…… rather than changing myself and adopting new things?

Contd…

• Do I hang on, spend more time on whatsapp, facebook and other social media and unable to find time for improving my skills and knowledge?

• Do I read a newspaper, magazine, periodical, story book at least some time or regularly ?

• Am I kind hearted, adjustable, committed, sincere, laborious, workaholic, systematic, regular, analytical, logical, truthful to myself, putting in long hours, concept driven, clarity seeking, curious to know things, and ….

• Am I shy, open, inhibited, initiator, follower, talkative, sporting, forgiving, sensitive, and ….

My Responsibility, My Opportunity

If I do not explore by • Reading discussing

• listening observing

writing , how can I know myself?

• If I do not know myself fully, am I not missing out on various opportunities?

Identify the methods to move towards it and apply them

• Discipline

• Persistence

• Investing in yourself throughReading Skilling Acquiring additional qualifications

How to be …?

• Disciplined:

• Timeliness, keeping things in order, keeping good health, learning the minimum that I should do to be competitive,

• I must know what I am supposed to know. I cannot cheat myself even I if do not have to be brilliant or fantastic.

• How long will I fool myself?

• ONLY I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR MYSELF

• A stitch in time saves nine; an apple a day keeps the doctor away, searching for the needle in a haystack,

• What I forget today I will up pile for tomorrow

• Tomorrow never comes

• It is the busiest person who finds more time

• People are never killed by work, they are killed by laziness

Let us do simple things to implement discipline

• Keep the certificates in a file • Keep photocopies of them in another file• Get two sets of photocopies attested by a Gazetted officer or the college

Principal or some other authorized person and keep them• Get ten copies of my passport size photo and stamp size photo ready• Get my Aadhar card ready• Write down the names of two books with author’s name of each subject

which I studied/am studying from the First year of my college life. • Buy the syllabus for the course which I am studying. Let me go through it

at least once.• Hang a calendar in my room• Buy the following: gum stick, stapler, highlighting pen, black pen, ten

different sized envelopes….. • AND …………IT IS FOR YOU TO DECIDE

How to be …

• Persistent (डटे रहो)In your dreamsIn your thoughtsIn your efforts

But do so intelligently, diligently, smartly

LET ME DECIDE SOMETHING WHICH I WILL PERSIST WITH

• Invest in yourselfThrough:• READING• SKILLING• ACQUIRING NEW QUALIFICATIONS

Why Read?• Facts and Figures• New types of Jobs• New types of training programs• New technologies• Analysis and Reports• New types of businesses• People who could do it successfully

• Why Skill?

• Let us do this and see….

• There are those who Listen and Forget

• There are those who Listen, Write and Keep it

• There are those who Listen, Write, Do and Persist & Achieve

THE CHOICE IS YOURS………………

THANK YOU—HAVE A GREAT FUTURE!!!!!!
