ЁЯМ┐ Reflection: "Knowing Ourselves and Finding Our Path"
In today’s fast-moving world, it is more important than ever to truly know ourselves. We often get caught up in the noise of society, expectations, and comparisons, but deep down, discovering who we are is the foundation of building a meaningful life. Our career choices shouldn’t just be about money or trends — they should reflect our passions, strengths, and values. A certain amount of self-awareness is not just helpful; it is necessary.
Sadly, many teenagers today face constant stress and confusion, trying to meet standards they don’t fully understand. Our parents sacrifice so much to give us a life they never had — not to control us, but because they want to see us happy and secure. That makes it even more important to stop, reflect, and ask: “What do I really want? Who am I becoming?”
Knowing ourselves isn’t selfish; it’s the first step toward living with purpose and making our parents’ sacrifices truly worthwhile.
It was a truly inspiring session. In this two-hour session, we first listened to the powerful experiences of Mr. Kartik Bajoria by watching his video: https://youtu.be/G5kT99UEux0?si=RDWcHfKW_BoJOR1K, which gave us the idea of embracing our own uniqueness. He was also present with us during the session, watching along and answering all our questions wonderfully.
Along with him, we were joined by Mr. Jugjiv Singh, Mrs. Manisha Khanna, Mrs. Brinda Ma’am, and nearly a hundred students from different schools.
Kartik Sir shared an incident where someone asked him, “What are you really? A singer, a teacher, or a managing official?” His answer was, “I am all of these — and I could also be a farmer someday!” What he really meant was that it's okay to have multiple interests. You can pursue one thing passionately, get tired of it, and then move on — and that's completely normal. It's perfectly fine to explore different fields and follow what excites you.
