Today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders. Everybody agrees to this. Hence, it is a very important responsibility for each and every educational institution to provide all necessary things to acquire the needed leadership qualities.
Children should realise their latent talents and hone at regular intervals. Hence, Sri Prakash Educational Institutions realise the fact and designed a tailored programme “ATHIDI”, inviting specialists in different fields to inspire and interact with the students. This would definitely help the children to get motivated.
Motivation is important because it's a guiding force for human behavior and can help people accomplish their goals.
On 23rd August, the management, staff and students arranged “ATHITHI” programme. The “Athithi” on that day was one of our alumni, Mr. Akash Devangan, who did his secondary and senior secondary schooling with Sri Prakash Vidyaniketan, CBSE wing. Recently, he completed his graduation from the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology, Tiruvananthapuram and got a job opportunity in the Indian Space Research Organisation soon to become a scientist there.
Before interacting with the students, he shared his feeling how he was treated, taught and trained by both teaching and non-teaching faculty members during his stay at Sri Prakash Vidhya Soudham.
He quoted the great saying of Former President Sri. A.P.J. Kalam, “Dream, Dream, Dream. Dreams transform into thoughts and thoughts result in action.”
He reiterated that one should identify oneself to motivate oneself. For this, he told the four mantras of success designed by Sri. A.P.J. Kalam, professor, aerospace engineer, “I will have great aim; I will continuously acquire knowledge; I will do hard work; and I will persevere and succeed”.
Very humbly he agreed, Sri. A.P.J. Kalam was that hidden and guiding force to ignite his latent talents and to accomplish his goal to reach the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology. He emphasized that it is very easy for everyone to accomplish their goals provided they cultivate certain habits.
• Go the extra mile. The bigger your goals are, the more time and energy you have to invest in achieving them. ...
• Lifelong learning. ...
• Focus on your challenges. ...
• Prioritize your health. ...
• Get out of your comfort zone.
Throughout the inspiring interaction session, it was noticed that students felt very happy to listen to the mantra of success from one of their seniors.
The principal of the Sri Prakash Junior College, Sri. V.V.S.S. Bhanu Murthy, congratulated Mr. Akash for his success for achieving his much awaited dreams and wished a bright future ahead. Sri. V.V.S.S. Bhanu Murthy promised the gathering that very frequently such motivating sessions will be conducted on a regular basis.
