Importance of Time Management for Students
Good morning everyone. Respected Principal Sir, honourable teachers and all my dear friends! Today I, Karan, of class XII A, stand before you to speak on the topic "A student must know how to manage his time.
Time management plays a very important role in the life of every individual, and more so, in the life of a student. It is very essential for a student to use his time wisely, plan things, prepare schedules and work accordingly.
A student should have his priorities set in his life. Anything that interferes with the student's school and his overall growth should be given up or replaced by some alternative. It is crucial to have a balance in life. Only setting priorities and goals cannot provide success, but a well-planned use of time can definitely guarantee success and happiness. A student should find a balance in time that he spends with family, friends and having fun. He should make sure that his personal life must not come in the way of meeting educational obligations.
Each and every minute counts for a student. Therefore, it is very important to develop a sense of responsibility. Unnecessary activities and an idle, careless behaviour kill time. Time once passed never returns. There are times in our lives when everything seems to be going out of control. In such critical times, time management can go a long way in bringing things back in place.
Hence, a student must know how to manage his time in order to live a fuller and balanced life.
Thank you! ###
The Need for Career Guidance
Good morning everyone. The honourable Principal, teachers, staff members and dear students, I, Sushant, an academic counsellor, stand before all of you to talk about the need for career guidance.
The first and the foremost thing that all of you should realise, if you haven't already, is that the decision regarding your career should be your own. You should and have to decide what you want to do in life and how you want to do that. Do not succumb to peer and parental pressure. At the end of the day, you are going to bear the results of your decision; so the decision should also be yours. Choosing a career is not a serious affair until your high school. However, once you are done with high school, it becomes imperative to choose a definite career goal. At this time you can seek the help of a qualified career counsellor who can assist you in discovering your potential and aptitude and accordingly suggest the right course.
It is really unfortunate that despite the many opportunities that are awaiting you after you complete your school education, many of you are yet not aware about them. Sometimes, in spite of having a clear idea of what you aspire to achieve in life, you are not sure about the career path that you need to follow i.e. you lack guidance. A career counsellor is an expert in his work and can help you clear the doubts that you have regarding the requisite academic qualifications/path for a particular course/job. So students, I would like to reiterate that career guidance provides essential support and boosts the morale of students by helping them to overcome preconceived notions about certain fields.
I would like to conclude on the note that the crux of career guidance is to provide the necessary counselling that is bound to help students in making the right choice about their career. It's your life. So only you should choose and choose wisely.
Thank you!
