In  Anil sir ‘s class we have discussed about what all needs it requires to become a great leader. We focused how various elements of brain envisages us to become a great leader. We discussed about the frame work  for making crucial decisions in life, how the most important choices in our life is based on our upbringing and education , how fear stop us from taking decisions and from becoming creative, the ladder of inference and judgment, emotional intelligence and  its relevance , state of being happy and how to form a strong community.

It is important to understand and have a purpose of life. Life without purpose is a directionless life without any motive. To understand the purpose of life it is important to first understand ourselves and align  it with the important choices we make in our lives. Sometimes inspite of having everything we are still unhappy because we don’t enjoy what we are doing and we don’t have a purpose of life.

After going and understanding the sessions after going home I pondered over the purpose of my life , my highs and lows and the most important people of my life. During my trip to sidhbari and my visit to village we met few kids . These kids performed various activities like some small presentation, dance and music performances etc. in front of us.  One of them was a girl who was 10 year old who delivered an amazing  speech  in English on “how tobacco is injurious to health”.  I was amazed at her confidence  level and her presentation style.  After talking to her and the other kids  I realized that these kids have big dreams in life and to achieve those dreams they are ready to strive hard and do whatever to make things happen. It was the most precious moment to witness the dreams in these kids eyes and the emotional connect they had among them. After coming back I realized that all of us have dreams and how we realize and understand those dreams and how we finally crave to achieve them.

I also realized the emotional intelligence among these children.  Even though these kids were quite young there was self awareness and it helped them to relate with each other and build trust among themselves. I also thought that that  these kids exemplified and honoured the gifts they have and they are in the process of finding out cause of their life that would give them joy and happiness. At such an early age they were utilizing the unique gifts which they possess and spreading happiness among them. It is very important to follow a mission of life and strive hard to achieve it and also important to take care of the most important thing and most important people while accomplishing that mission.
