Welcome to Jindagi ki paathshala – The school of life…for life lessons not taught at school.
School education and success in Life
School or college education in itself is not enough for success in life. Grades at school do not define grades in life. Life has its own system of grading which goes beyond marks.
You will find many a good graders at school, not doing so good in Life. Conversely, you will also find that many back benchers at School have made it big in Life. In fact, there are many great achievers in life who have not even completed formal school or college education.
Ever wondered, why ? Its because , for success in life, mere academic knowledge is not enough. You need certain Life Skills as well .
But , Sadly, our current School & College education is focused on imparting academic knowledge only. There is not enough emphasis on life skills training.
School lessons Vs Life lessons
At School & college, we are made to learn a lot of subjects, but are not taught How to Learn. We are taught Maths , but not Meditation , we are taught Economics but not Emotional Intelligence , we are taught Biology but not Behavioural Science, , we are taught Theory of Relativity but not Relationships …. the list goes on.
The fact of life is that Life skills such as Emotional intelligence, Relationships, Human behaviour,Resilience ..etc etc..are vital & necessary tools for success in life.
This is not to undermine the importance of academic knowledge. Knowledge is the greatest weapon. But knowledge without relevant Life skills is like a weapon without ammunition. No Fire Power.
Life skills in the age of AI
As we move into the age of Artificial Intelligence, Life Skills have become all the more important because AI is fast taking over knowledge related tasks at beginner & mid level.
As knowledge workers get replaced by AI, persons with high level of life skills will be in demand.
Life skill Lessons
There is a whole range of Life skills to be acquired and applied in day to day life. Life skills such as Meditation , Emotional Intelligence, Financial Literacy, Productivity, Health & wellness, Happiness , Love & Relationships, Parenting ..are a few examples to name.
This place is meant to be a compilation of all such lessons of life , useful to all… Students, Employees , Entrepreneurs , Couples , Parents , Seniors….
