Student's Life Is Not Meant To Be So....

By Manasvini

What is life? LIFE is a Lively experience Illuminated with Fascination and Enthusiasm. All humans beings without any discrimination is gifted with one life, so this one life has to be used to live in the way that we want to!

From a general perspective, people see a student's life confined to only books and academics, burdened with a lot stress arising due to a stiff competition in education. But as far as I am here narrating this write-up, a student's life is not meant to be so...

If you actually explore life, it is so much adventurous and fun loaded. If a student decides that his life should also include extracurricular activities, then the faculty of stress can be torn and thrown away from his/her life. Studies and academics do not judge the true potential of a person-explorations of various fields brings out the actual interest and potency of a person.

Remember guys that one cannot merely be judged by ones' scores! If you don't enthrall scoring well , you can outshine others by achieving something extraordinary through extracurricular activities.

Now you would have one question pondering upon,"How do I find out in which activity I am good at and How do I pursue it?" The answer is very simple, try to explore all the reachable avenues like sports,arts,singing,dancing,etc and within a certain period of time you will tend to develop love and passion for it. This love and passion towards that particular activity can be used to figure out your field of interest, other than studies.

I am into practising badminton, music and dance apart from studies.I am in 10th standard and have taken my board exams.But to my awareness, I have never compromised my "STUDIES" to extra curricular activities. These activities, to my knowledge,have never hindered my studies, in fact they have helped me to stay more focused,sharp and attentive.

Everybody advised me to abandon these activities and have myself glued to studies.But I was determined not to forgo sports activities as I loved them so much. Not only did these activities serve as a stress buster but also added the flavor of additional talent.I also believed that these activities at some point of time in my life would definitely help in embellishing my future. My mom usually calls me a "JACK OF ALL AND A MASTER OF NONE!" Maybe these words are those that keeps me revving.

Initially I found it a bit difficult to strike a balance between studies and other activities but slowly, I was able to cope with its own pace. When you want things to fall in line,one ought to be goal directed and at any cost not be distracted by any external agencies like social media, movie mania,etc.

Being a kid of sixteen years , I have shared my perspective.I hope that this would be an useful tip for aspirants like me.I also have conveyed the key role of extracurricular activities in one's life. Balance is very essential for the smooth progress of life.When you involve yourselves in studies as well as in extracurricular activities, you start to learn the art of "BALANCING" at a much younger age.Balancing is so much beneficial which makes you to become a multitasking, multifaceted prodigy!

STRIKE A BALANCE, STRIVE HARD TO EXCEL, SUCCESS IS AT YOUR DOORSTEPS!
