Studying habit and success; An invitation to reality By Dr. Bobby Srinivasan and Dr. Sudhakar Balachandran

June 30, 2016 | Posted by bobbysrinivasan << back to blog

Without a doubt, every student enrolled in our PGPM / PGDM program would like to walk out of our prestigious institution with good academic laurels which they will cherish all their lives. But this is not the case in reality. Ofcourse everybody completes their degrees; however the grades, the knowledge acquired and the skills they acquire vary immensely. For many it is a lesson in reality. They forget the maxim, “what you put in is what you get”. Student who believe in luck as a substitute for hard work have already lost in the game of paper chase. This short blog is to create an awareness of what is required to succeed in education. The following points are of immense significance and suggest that student read it with rapt attention and patience.

 

  1. Accept that you are a mature adult and have been given an opportunity which is available to only a few cohorts of yours. This opportunity will create a future which will make others envy you. Missing out is certainly not an option.
  2. Every course that you take is taught by faculties who have rich experience in the field. Believe me, they are not in the class to waste their time. They are passionate people who are committed to honing your skills in the academic field. Believe that they know what it takes to succeed in their field of specialisation.
  3. The student should recognize this whole heartedly. Passion to learn and understand can increase only with a strong commitment.
  4. Remember every habit of yours must be questioned by yourself. Good judgement will tell you that building a positive relationship with the institution is a must for your future. Knowledge provider is a temple and you must act accordingly.
  5. Remember that a miracle has happened. An eminent Professor with an incredible vision Dr. Bala has taken it upon himself to create this incredible academic environment which in the years to come will be regarded as one of the greatest education institutions in the world. He believed it; dreamed it; actualized it. The energy and commitment that he has put in has no parallel. He has in his goodness invited you to participate in this journey. If only you contemplate on this every day, your job will become that much easier.
  6. You all come from different back grounds, family and educational. You saw the wisdom in studying here. You believed that this institution will give you knowledge and skill to survive in this competitive world. Ask yourself every day what you should do to acquire this.
  7. Any learning has to be done and effort will always be required. Know that every theory that is in the book is the outcome of the collective intelligence of academic scholars from around the world. They are sharing it with you which is a privilege given to you. The next time you open a book to read, just contemplate on this for a few minutes.
  8. Our institution in many respects is unique. Our courses are created knowing what the market need. We have courses in character and real life skill building. We call it the experiential education. The courses will open the reality to you and teach you to count your blessings. The skill building course namely experiential trading is a wonderful pathway to acquire the skill of creating wealth and make it grow all your life.
  9. Joining the prestigious club of eminent men is open to you. This is the starting point. Have faith trust and belief and the passion to achieve will become a reality.
  10. Finally, motivation and passion are two different things. Motivation can change due to circumstances; but passion will grow immensely, inspite of circumstances. Decide for yourself what you want. Hope you choose the later.
