From laughing loud to crying in silence, we all have experienced the importance of family. The family is the one such place you experience genuine love, the place where you can never find partiality in trust and love. Family is always there to support you in all the right decisions you make and restrict you from the incorrect decisions you take. Family encourages you to connect with people physically, emotionally, and mentally. It identifies you as a capable individual of reaching his/her goals without any hesitations.

How lucky are those people who have a complete family, aren’t they? They have many people around them with whom they can spend time, share their feelings, and experience all the ups and downs in life. The absence of that one really important person breaks you into pieces. Never feel suffocated you are in a joint or a complete family. Think you have a lot of support that only a few people get in their life. Family is a bunch of teachers and students, teachers being who direct you throughout your life and students being from whom you learn not to make mistakes.

The most important lesson is family teaches us our values. They teach us how to respect elders, the importance of helping people in need. Basically, the family is filled with all the interesting topics and lessons we want. The importance of a balanced life can be learnt from family. The right way of maintaining a healthy relationship with family members is by spending time with them, playing games with them, going on outings.

A complete family completes your world. Privileged are those who are blessed with a complete family. Some people don’t acknowledge the importance of a complete family. They take family for granted. They feel parents control them. They don’t spend time with them. There are so many families in this world in which one or the other family member isn’t there. The reason for the separation can be anything, but the loss is irreplaceable. People with the loss really feel helpless in such situations when they desperately need them.

Imagine a family who just makes a home, not a house. A place where family members stay happy, has small fights or arguments, come tired from work to have a good relaxation with family members is HOME. A HOUSE is a place filled with lots of fights, no proper conversations and a lot of misunderstandings.

 A HAPPY FAMILY IS WHERE-

• You keep your family as a first priority. 
• Not allow a third person break your family.
• You trust and love each other unconditionally.
• Understand and support each other.

It is not very easy to break your family until you put all your efforts to save it. It is important to sit and engage in a calm and healthy conversation on where we went wrong, what are the areas for us to work on so that we don’t commit same mistakes again. In a relationship, understanding is extremely important. If one partner fails to understand, the other should be more understanding to handle the situation very well. A family with constant fights and a lot of misunderstandings will never last long. It’s very important to stay united to save relationships.

A family is blessing where people get to stay happy and share all the matters openly without any hesitations. Always feel lucky to be born in a family where parents are supportive, loving and are ready to do anything for your happiness.

Friendship is one of the purest forms of relationship. It’s a connection built on affection, love, and trust in each other. True friends are those who stay with you in your toughest times and show empathy to you no matter what. It is evident that when you are in any problem, the first thought that arises in your mind is FRIENDS. You also never miss a chance to share your happiness with them. If you are happy, your friends are, and vice-versa.

• 

Always value your friends, their love, and their trust. Such people are rare who take care of you and ask about you as to how you are. Friendship can mold a person to his/her best version. They correct you when you go wrong and appreciate you when you are correct. Friends bring happiness and joy to our lives. Friends can have a great impact on your mental and physical health. When we are sad, they are always there as stressbusters.

From those crazy night stays to sleeping the whole day, we have had lots of fun. We plan to go out for movies, having yummy pizzas and burgers, enjoying fresh air by the beachside. Friends never fail to tease each other and be mischievous. They find reasons to irritate each other till the other person is tired of it. So, it’s always amazing to be surrounded by crazy friends.

Everything doesn’t always go peaceful. There are ups and downs in friendship too. If there are any misunderstandings or arguments, try to clear them out calmly. Never let go of the matter easily because genuine friendships are never that weak to break easily.

True friends are those-

• Who accept you the way you are.
• How big the matter maybe, they will not leave you to suffer alone. 
• Who don’t hesitate to stay open with you.
• Who cares for you feelings and love you the most.

Why are friends needed in life?

• Emotional support: Friends are the ones who can completely relate to you in all situations because they have also undergone the same phase that you are. You have a belief that you possess friends who are available for you anytime you need them. They support you even when you don’t ask for it.

• Stressbusters: If you are upset or sad, run to your friends for a bag filled with laughter. When you realize you have amazing friends around you who know your likes and dislikes, then they use those to make you happy.

• Encourage you: It doesn’t matter if you don’t succeed in the task you have tackled. You have friends who motivate you to your fullest whenever you need them.

• Building your confidence: When you lose your self-esteem, friends are there who don’t let it break at any cost. They build up your confidence by praising you for how amazing you are.

Finding friends with the same disorder is a blessing !

Always aim at strengthening your friendship. Don’t stop yourself from sharing your problems or feelings with them assuming they would think bad about you. Spend time with them, try to understand their feelings, mingle with them whenever you have a chance.

Don’t make fake friendships. You are indeed using that person for your work to be done. And don’t encourage it too. They remember you when their work should be done and then forget you. Friends aren’t those who forget you, isn’t it?

True friends are the ones you stay with you till the end of your lives. Friends are the most precious gems of our lives. Always look after them whenever they need you, lock them in your hearts and support each other throughout your lives.

Scheduling priorities in life is a significant task to undertake. Setting priorities helps you to reserve time, carry out logical decisions, and improvise your way of living. 

It takes time for you to decide your priorities because it is a decision that is going to be continued for a span of time. Therefore, it is substantial to make an apt choice. You discover many of your interests that you might have left behind someday. It motivates you to have a clear picture of what you are supposed to do.

• 

Way to set priorities in life :

• Make a note of your top interests.
• Decide on what is important to you.
• Think whether the task you are undertaking is indeed worthy to do so. If not, then prioritize accordingly.
• After doing so, decide how to approach and complete them.
• Do have the ability to compromise. You evidently can’t handle all tasks you decide.
• Set proper time and date so that the tasks you do are completed on time.
• The most crucial point is to not distract yourself.

The 3’S- Sacrifice, Struggle, and Success make it our way while planning, performing, and achieving them. Let’s have a look at them.

1. SACRIFICE:

• Sacrificing our decision, or plans for something good isn’t bad at all.
• If you do it with all love, you will surely be unhurt. Sacrificing for someone shows your love for them.
• Sacrificing for one’s happiness shows your true personality. This can change one’s life, may it be a small sacrifice too.

Where are sacrifices done?

• Family: Parents sacrifice their comfort, sleep so that their children can leave happily in the future without any problems.
• Sleep: You let go of sleep when you have many works to do. If the work you are doing is going to yield you thumbs up and that really costs you your sleep, never step back.

Sacrifices are immeasurable. If your sacrifice is benefitting someone, support them by doing so.

• 

2. STRUGGLE:

• Life doesn’t always fall in the way you seek. There are frequent ups and down on your way to reaching your goal.
• You work hard to achieve success. Sometimes you achieve and sometimes you don’t. That doesn’t mean you lose hope.
• We encounter a lot of barriers that prevent us, distract us and examine our abilities.
• Each person’s struggle is clearly different from others. Some of the struggles maybe- Career pressure, Financial crisis, Failure, Arguments.

How to overcome struggle?

• Explore the world. Relax your mind and soul.
• Don’t hide your difficulties. Share it with your peers so that you feel light.
• Stop comparing yourself with others. Comparison lowers one’s self-confidence. You have your identity.
• Stay focused on the work you are performing.
•  Never force yourself to finish the work you aren’t able to. It will absolutely let you down if you can’t accomplish it.
• Try being positive even at the worst time so that you’ll at least have a ray of hope in one corner.

3. SUCCESS:

The result of your actions that brings happiness to your face is SUCCESS. Gaining success isn’t that easy. You have to be extremely dedicated, punctual, and determined. When you build interest in the work you do, success is automatically activated to reach your goal.

How to achieve success?

• Work hard: Achieving success isn’t easy always. You might feel you are having many works to do, but a dedicated person never thinks about it. So rather than investing time in thinking negatively, work hard.
• Push your limits: Always try upgrading your interests. Don’t revolve around the same topics. Go out of your comfort zone and try new things.
• Develop ideas: Invest your timing in bringing out the best ideas to implement in your work.
• Save time: Don’t waste your time unnecessarily on silly things. Don’t dig up deep into the answers you don’t receive. Relax your mind, understand the topic clearly and then move forward.

Never try getting down your self-esteem. Try hard to achieve your goals. Prioritize your options and work accordingly. Success is always there in everyone. You achieve it when you make a way for it through your actions.

In the modern era, people frequently deny performing certain things that might be either good or bad. Sensible decisions should be carried out as to when a NO should be uttered. A small scope of denial can cause you to pay a hefty price. You assist others presuming that what if you turn them down. But that’s not the case. You love to help others because you love to. Lending a helping hand always can cost you a lot too. Think wisely as to where you want to invest your time. It’s not at all bad to think for yourself.

• 

Never feel ashamed to adamantly deny. If that one word NO is being beneficial to you, then don’t hesitate to do so. It’s impossible to say YES to everything. Prioritize the decisions you make as to whom you have to tell a YES and to whom a NO. This world is filled with greedy people too who wholly want their work to be done. They remember you when they need a favor, else you are like a non-existing creature. People who genuinely care for you and need your help will ask for it, respect it and convey they will always be available for you. Never overlook such people in your life.

It is important to know some things related to denial-

1. Once a NO is not a NO forever :

• You deny once doesn’t announce you are denying forever.
• There might seem to be reasons for your denial. Maybe you are busy with your own work, or are not in a mood to help anyone. 

2. NO need not always be direct :

• Valid reasons can be voiced out for the reason of your denial.
• Some people think what if he/she feels bad.
• Telling a NO may surely not hurt until it is conveyed in a positive way.

• 

3. Happy and Peaceful Environment :

• When you deny someone, you are reducing the effort and time you are investing there.
• You have a chance to relax you, not to withstand stress about it.

4. Constant Connection :

• As said, once a denial doesn’t always mean denial.
• Continue to establish a connection with that person after you deny.
• This attitude will surely make the person feel that you don’t have any problem in helping, but the situation makes you do so.
• It urges him/her to believe that you don’t have any hard feelings for him/her.

5. Devote time yourself :

• Some people go out of the way to help out others that they don’t give time to themselves.
• No one is stopping that person from helping others. But the fact to understand is giving importance to you and value you.

• 

Denying for doing something wrong is not at all bad. You should maintain a strong stand and be firm, that the decision that you have taken against the wrong is absolutely correct. Whoever approaches you to change your mind shouldn’t be in a stage to overrule the accurate decisions you have made.

Situations arise where you are being betrayed. The person who did so will try his/her best to prove himself/herself innocent, you should voice out exclaiming a NO, it’s inappropriate. Never be afraid to tell a NO when you aren’t comfortable in doing so. You shouldn’t be forced to do the favor asked. You aren’t hindered at gunpoint to do the favor asked.

In present times, you definitely have a price to pay for everything. It’s left up to you to see where your profit lies. NO can be costly when you do something that you aren’t willing to. You help people when they need you, but are they available to you when you need them the most? Give it a thought.

Life is a gift offered by god which needs to be used in the most efficient way possible. Life revolves around experimenting, experiencing, creating wonderful memories. When you have been given this chance, why should you let it go? Life teaches you many lessons. It helps you cope up with difficulties, face many challenges, enjoy fortunate times. Every morning you wake up with a motto. You plan how your day has to proceed. To do justice to the LIFE offered to you, have aims in life, work hard to achieve them. It’s totally okay to think about yourself. A person shouldn’t be in a dilemma thinking, what if people entitle him/her selfish.

It’s important to have plans in life. When you properly plan, go according to it, strive hard to work on it, and achieve your goal. If you plan what you are going to do in life, where will you be in the forthcoming years, then you have surely fulfilled the purpose of your life.

That is what life is about. We do not get redos, but we do get second chances.

The key feature to focus on is, Does life provide you a second chance? 

By all means, you have all the chances to claim it if you are really worthy enough. That doesn’t refer to you to be carefree at the first go assuming you have a second chance. If you totally have the ability to gain a chance then no one can restrain you from grabbing the opportunity. A person obtaining a second chance bears extra pressure to prove that he/she is worthy of it and has succeeded. Offering a second chance in life isn’t wrong at all. What if that person extremely does great and yields benefits to others? A second chance is often given when a person commits a mistake and has a chance to correct it and prove others wrong who are having a bad impression on him/her.

Let’s consider certain examples to check if a person really deserves a second chance.

In a company, an employee violates the norms of the company or commits some mistakes unknowingly. What is going to happen?

• FIRST POSSIBILITY:- If the mistakes committed by that person are really big and have brought a great loss to the company, then for sure giving a second chance is impossible. Many kinds of thoughts emerge like-

1. What if he makes the same mistake again?
2. Is he/she really worthy to have it?

• SECOND POSSIBILITY:- If he/she is very hardworking and has yielded outstanding success to the company, then a second chance can be given. What if he brings more glory to the company? Hence, to be on the safer side, offering a second chance isn’t wrong.

If we consider the example of a second chance in friendship, how would it be? 

Imagine a friend lying to his/her friend, may it be anything. How would the other one think? Does he/she feel betrayed? The trust developed, the love for each other is all put at stake. A ray of hope of a second chance can be provided considering how close is that person. If he/she desperately wants to save the friendship, all barriers can be broken. A promise of trust, love, laughter should be rebuilt. Assurance should be offered to state that such a mistake wouldn’t be repeated again. In this world, finding true friendship is rare. Therefore, when you possess it, respect the trust and love built in it.

Life is lead by experimenting. So don’t lose hope if you commit mistakes. Learn from your mistakes, work on them. When life offers you a second chance, grab that opportunity and make the most of it and prove the right choice was made by offering you SECOND CHANCE.

Education is a critical aspect of one’s life. It boosts your self-confidence, acquires skills and knowledge, and shows your capabilities. Female education continues being a trending topic since many years. There is consistently a notion created that girls are born to do household chores, get married, and look after their families. Is this why women are born? Education is medium to take wise decisions and have great control in life and women have the ability to do so.

EQUAL RIGHTS TO QUALITY EDUACTION IS IMPORTANT.

Women encounter multiple barriers when they are on a journey of gaining education. The pressure of their families and society restrict them from doing so. 

When women have the ability to look after their families and perform household chores, aren’t they capable enough to educate themselves? Why is there discrimination between men and women in this field? As the Indian Constitution says ALL HAVE EQUAL RIGHTS TO QUALITY EDUCATION, why isn’t no one following it? Our nation is in a development phase in all the fields. No doubt we are gaining our motive, but once give a thought, if women involve in this movement what would the success rate be? Women should have the rights to contribute their ideas, articulate their thoughts to the world.

IMPORTANCE OF FEMALE EDUCATION

• If females are provided with education, the poverty in our nation will gradually decrease.
• According to UNESCO, if all females in developing countries completed primary education then child mortality would drop by a sixth, saving nearly one million lives annually. 
• Girls are definitely the future of our nation. Girls who receive an education will undoubtedly make it a priority for their children.
• By educating women, they can uplift their families, support them financially.
• Educating females can reduce the chances of child marriage as this can deliver a negative impact on female education.

PROMOTION OF FEMALE EDUCATION

•  The awareness of female education should start from rural areas. 
• Schools should be constructed in villages so that women can feel safe to attend.
• Security should be provided to women so that they don’t hesitate to come out of their house to attend schools.
• Stern actions should be initiated for any crime against women.
• Abortion of female feticide should be banned and if it is practiced, punishment should be given.
• Beti Bachao Beti Padhao campaigns should frequently be conducted to bring awareness about the importance of education in a woman’s life.

Women shouldn’t hold themselves back assuming what people will think about them. They should do what their heart says. In today’s world, people do believe female education is important. Frequent encouragement is needed to completely stop this act. When women can look after her family, why can’t she look after her nation? Women can inevitably cause a change in society, if she is given a chance. She doesn’t expect much from her family and close ones. She merely wants them to support her decisions and help her achieve success.

 It is important for women to voice out their thoughts, ideas and decisions. They should reveal  to the world that they are capable enough to balance both their personal and professional life. That day is not too far when all the women in this world would be happily attending schools and colleges and gaining abundance of knowledge.

As the word says- Personal Development undoubtedly arises a way of improving yourself to achieve your desired goal in life. It’s a way of recognizing your strengths and how to work better on them. It not only allows you to achieve your goals but also encourages you to carefully search for many of your skills and interests to make yourself better. Of course, it’s not a short process. Improving yourself and rising to greater heights isn’t a cup of tea. As learning has no end, developing yourself too doesn’t have.

PERSONAL GROWTH IS ESSENTIAL.

Personal growth is a way of informing that Yes! You are upgrading yourself day by day. Even if they continue to be small steps, that doesn’t matter. You are at a satisfaction that you have started achieving your key objective. Let’s take an example to see how you tend to find new skills and interests in you. Imagine you are visiting the place, say Delhi. After exploring every place, you feel to go to Agra to witness one of the Seven Wonders of the World-TAJ MAHAL. Therefore, isn’t there an interest coming within you to visit many in and around places to gain certain experiences that probably you may not get? Clearly, you won’t allow it to go. You take advantage of the decision and the rare opportunity you have. Similarly, you are on a journey to discover your skills and how to mold them well. At this point, you might find something very different and engrossing and you end up willing to attempt it. It’s basically to make you understand that you have so much to learn in your life. You have to take an advantage of it and use the chance to your fullest.

THREE FEATURES OF PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT:

1. SELF-INTROSPECTION

• Calmly sit down and find out what are your strengths, weaknesses.
• Don’t ever forget to remember your success and failure because these two can totally change the whole dynamics of development.
• Success makes you realize you are learning different qualities and actions. It inspires you to learn more and strive for bigger success.
• Once a failure doesn’t always indicate a failure. You learn from your mistakes and warn your inner self to not repeat them.
• Certain minor changes encourage you to shape your personal growth better day by day.
• There is no person in this world who hasn’t faced a failure. It is evident that when you are on a tour of accomplishing something extremely big, you fall. But at the same time, you should rise like the sun.

2. BUILDING YOUR OWN IDENTITY

• It’s very essential to note no one knows you better than you. Think what makes you, YOU.
• Identity is all about questioning you on what you are.
• Your identity shouldn’t be defined by others, because you live for yourself.
• It is also important you don’t go and ask others to tell you how you are. You will undoubtedly be lost in a place where maybe it’s difficult to come back. You are transforming yourself for your good.
• In the same time, when you are socializing with people, you find certain qualities interesting, you should give a try to inculcate them.
• Construct your own identity. Let people know you are unique.

3. DEVELOPING YOUR TALENTS

• Each person is god-gifted with a bunch of talents.
• Try to improve on those rather than jumping directly into discovering others.
• Just because you like other’s talent doesn’t mean you forget yours and put a lot of time into it.
• When you find others talent very eye-catching, include that in your personal growth.

WAYS TO IMPROVE PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

1. COMMUNICATION: This helps you pour out the feelings in you and helps you share your thoughts. This in return builds confidence in you.
2. SOCIALIZING WITH PEOPLE: Build connections with people, try to understand how they are. Find out what skills and qualities you can acquire.
3. PROBLEM SOLVING: Help people with their issues by providing solutions to them. This encourages you to indulge yourself more in it and causes you to realize what you are good at.
4. ADAPTING: Wherever you go you should be in a stage of adjusting yourself there. It’s not you stay in the same place surrounded by the same people.

IMPORTANCE OF PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

1. SELF- MOTIVATION: Motivate yourself to strive hard to achieve your goal.
2. BIGGER ACHIEVEMENTS: Success and failures teach you and show your capabilities on how potential you are to achieve something bigger.

Never stop yourself from accomplishing something you desire for just because others don’t like it. Remember, it’s personal development. You are living and improving for yourself. Many people come your way to either stop you or push you forward. Take it positively and step forward.
