Once Upon a time there lived a brother and sister The brother was very confident and always participated in all activities, but the sister was not.

One day they both had a ‘Show and Tell’ competition in the school. The brother worked hard and performed very well, but the sister was feeling sleepy and lazy in the middle of her turn. Her brother won the prize. While she was happy for her brother, but she felt sad for herself. They went home and she started crying seeing her parents. Her parents told her that if you want to win a prize you need to work hard and be confident. By being lazy and avoiding hard work you lost your chances to do well. After a few days another competition happened at their school and this time both brother and sister won a prize each.

Be Confident (Akta aunty)

I am often asked, how am I confident always? Don’t I feel scared when I go on stage or if someone suddenly asks me something.

Well, we all fear something or the other. The only way to overcome the fear is to face the fear. What’s the worst that can happen, we will fail. It’s ok to fail, as fail means “forward action inward learning”. When we fail, we learn from the mistakes we have made and can work on improving ourselves.

Our efforts never die, they always lead to something meaningful and impactful. Fail or Pass is not the only criteria that determines whether we should be happy or sad . It’s just an emotion which should be used to better understand ourselves.

After we accept our fear, the next step is to work on our knowledge , as they say content is king. How do we improve our knowledge. To my mind no better way to improve your knowledge then to read books and write poems, articles or stories. When we read, we should not read just to finish the book or article but, to understand and comprehend. This way we shall enhance our vocabulary, we will be able to ideate and be confident. Make it a habit to read few pages every day, language of book can be of your choice and choose subjects that shall add value to yourself.

Once we have read, let’s start writing so we are able to articulate our thoughts better. Lastly , we must always talk in our language of comfort , as if the other language makes you fearful and less confident, use your comfort language and see the power. Having done this, keep working on improving your language that you lack, by following the above-mentioned steps.

I assure you by doing these basic things, you will always feel confident

School

School is cool

But I am cooler

The class is tall

But I am taller

It's fun to run

But not with a bun

School is like glasses

But fun with masses

I want a pool

But I am not a fool

Playing Soccer makes me a shocker

Writing with a pencil makes everyone crazy

Sometimes saying goodbye makes me sad

But why cry

When I can have a nap

School food is nice

But not with a Mice

Nice to meet you

Say that twice.

False Allegations

Come up with bad solutions

Oh! here we have false allegations

Doesn't matter, I care less with each time

You repeat same things

Cause no one did you justice

But time moves ahead

And nothing's fair

So, it's better

Now that you chose to burn yourself alive

No one wants your bad business

No one wants you and your bumblings

Cause dear you got petty

Movies are always good

With happy endings

No one wants to be told of their crimes

You and I are same, ain't no lie

We can see each other like looking at mirror

But you are way dusty then I am

Your life's horror

Because you elaborated other’s faults

End up disclosing your crimes

Meanwhile I just moved ahead with my Life

, और जवानों ने िचिकसकों सी क�णा, आया हर कोई साथ जब मानवता पे संकट आया।

िजतना भी बुरा हो समय आ�खर सब को साथ ले आया।

माना खोया ब�त कुछ जो वािपस न िमल पाएगा, �ाग हर वीर का सदा याद आयेगा।

लेिकन उसे रख पीछे हम नई शु�आत करने िनकले , चलो भूल जाएं वो गम िपछले।

नए युग, नया म� और नई तु�ारी भी शु�आत है

आने वाली उ�ीद और खुिशयों की सौगात है।

कुछ बदल� भिव� के िलए, कुछ रख�गे धरोहर कल की, किठन परी�ा पूरी हो गई हम सब की।

आज हमारा भिव� करे सभी को आमंित्रत इस नए युग के आगाज़ म� , छोटे उ�ुक आतुर ह� ,आपके �ागत म�।

अब यह न�े कदमों से आगे आगे ही चलते
