4. Plan/give a suggestion for others and your self for building a strong character and imbibing a strong value system highlighting and analysing the importance of the same in both personal and professional life .. (M2/D2/D3)

• Everything that happens to us happens in purpose. And sometimes, one thing leads to another.

• Instead of locking yourself up in your cage of fears and crying over past heartaches, embarrassment and failures, treat them as your teachers and they will become your tools in both self-improvement and success.

Building a strong character…

when does self-improvement become synonymous with success? Where do we start? Take these tips:


• Stop thinking and feeling as if you’re a failure, because you’re not. How can others accept you if YOU can’t accept YOU?

• When you see hunks and models on TV, think more on self improvement, not self pitying. Self-acceptance is not just about having nice slender legs, or great abs. Concentrate on inner beauty.



• When people feel so down and low about themselves, help them move up. Don’t go down with them. They’ll pull you down further and both of you will end up feeling inferior.

• The world is a large room for lessons, not mistakes. Don’t feel stupid and doomed forever just because you failed on a science quiz. There’s always a next time. Make rooms for self-improvement.



• Take things one at a time. You don’t expect black sheep’s to be goody two-shoes in just a snap of a finger. Self-improvement is a one day at a time process.

• Self-improvement results to inner stability, personality development and SUCCESS. It comes from self-confidence, self appreciation and self esteem.



• Set meaningful and achievable goals. It hopes and aims to result to an improved and better YOU.

• Little things mean BIG to other people. Sometimes, we don’t realize that the little things that we do like a pat on the back, saying “hi” or “hello”, greeting someone “good day” or telling Mr. Smith something like “hey, I love your tie!” are simple things that mean so much to other people. When we’re being appreciative about beautiful things around us and other people, we also become beautiful to them.

A very nice quote says that, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” We are all here to learn our lessons. Our parents, school teachers, friends, colleagues, officemates, neighbors… they are our teachers. When we open our doors for self -improvement, we increase our chances to head to the road of success.


The following tips are useful for getting success The following tips are useful for getting success and building a strong character in life which are and building a strong character in life which are useful in personal as well as career improvement useful in personal as well as career improvement • Achieve your Dreams - the future belongs to those who believe in the

beauty of their dreams.

• Believe in your self, and in what you can do.

• Consider things on every angle and aspect. Motivation comes from determination. To be able to understand life, you should feel the sun from both sides.

• Don’t give in and don’t give up. Thomas Edison failed once, twice, more than thrice before he came up with his invention and perfected the incandescent light bulb. Make motivation as your steering wheel.

Motivation – Heart of self improvement

Motivation – Heart of self improvement• Enjoy. Work as if you don’t need money. Dance as if nobody’s

watching. Love as if you never cried. Learn as if you’ll live forever. Motivation takes place when people are happy.

• Family and Friends – are life’s greatest ‘F’ treasures. Don’t loose sight of them.

• Give more than what is enough. Where does motivation and self-improvement take place at work? At home? At school? When you exert extra effort in doing things.

• Hang on to your dreams. They may dangle in there for a moment, but these little stars will be your driving force.


• Ignore those who try to destroy you. Don’t let other people to get the best of you. Stay out of toxic people – the kind of friends who hates to hear about your success.

• Just be yourself. The key to success is to be yourself. And the key to failure is to try to please everyone.

• Keep trying no matter how hard life may seem. When a person is motivated, eventually he sees a harsh life finally clearing out, paving the way to self-improvement.

• Learn to love your self. Now isn’t that easy?

• Make things happen. Motivation is when your dreams are put into work clothes.

• Never lie, cheat or steal. Always play a fair game.

• Open your eyes. People should learn the horse attitude and horse sense. They see things in 2 ways – how they want things to be, and how they should be.

• Practice makes perfect. Practice is about motivation. It lets us learn repertoire and ways on how can we recover from our mistakes.

• Quitters never win. And winners never quit. So, choose your fate – are you going to be a quitter? Or a winner?

• Ready yourself. Motivation is also about preparation. We must hear the little voice within us telling us to get started before others will get on their feet and try to push us around. Remember, it wasn’t raining when Noah build the ark.


• Stop procrastinating!

• Take control of your life. Discipline or self control jives synonymously with motivation. Both are key factors in self-improvement.

• Understand others. If you know very well how to talk, you should also learn how to listen. Yearn to understand first, and to be understood the second.

• Visualize it. Motivation without vision is like a boat on a dry land.

• Want it more than anything. Dreaming means believing. And to believe is something that is rooted out from the roots of motivation and self-improvement.



• X Factor is what will make you different from the others. When you are motivated, you tend to put on “extras” on your life like extra time for family, extra help at work, extra care for friends, and so on.

• You are unique. No one in this world looks, acts, or talks like you. Value your life and existence, because you’re just going to spend it once.

• Zero in on your dreams and go for it!!!

Conclusion...

“Tell me and I forget,Show me and I remember,

Involve me and I understand.”

- Benjamin Franklin
