How College extra-curricular activities helps in tackling real world life


The time you listen to the college word your mind starts wondering around the word called "fun" right..but there are a lot more things that you learn in your college apart from your academics. Let me put up in points so that it will be easy for you to grasp the things which I want to showcase.
1. Seminar: The word Seminar hits me as a short lecture whenever I listen to this word. This plays a major role when it comes in improving your communication skills and for overcoming your stage fear. Whichever field you choose communication is the first step in which you can reach people.Mmm Now some of you might say I am a techie, so what is the need of communication I know how to code and that is the end of my job.Hold on.. but how will you explain your coding to your senior if you are struggling to frame your sentences, NO no..please don't get me wrong, my intention is not to hurt anybody's feeling. Sorry if my words sound rude to you but think, isn't it reality?!.. Henceforth, communication plays a vital role in convincing people and makes them understand what you think.
2. Collage : Collage is something that we learn how to play in a team which helps in better communication within a circle. Now you may think what is this topic doing here. Collage and communication ha!?..sounds contradictory ha?..No dear, let me break these words for you. Well, let me tell you that teamwork shines here. As you know we work in a team here with various minds. Collage involves in newspaper cutting, with various pictures involved in similar topics based on the theme our instructor gives. It helps in bringing up the creativity of young minds thus helping in developing artistic minds. Ok, wait...Now you may ask Shruthi, you said collage is something to do with communication...Yes, my dear folks, I am coming to that point. Look if we are in a team hence we are working together no matter how much work does the individual does, we should divide our work and unite the work and for this to be done effectively, communication is the bramahastra to us. And through communication, our work becomes much more efficient and easier. The other thing we learn from collage is we come more flexible enough to fit in the team in order to make sure our task goes smoothly. However, How nice na! If everything goes as per our plan and if we get good team players. Unfortunately, most of the times we have differences with our team members which may lead to rivals, contradiction, a dispute among them. In order to have an effective result in our work, we have to learn how to tackle such problems and it is only possible when we have good communication skills in order to solve the problems magnificently and find the solutions for it. I hope now you get my point.
3. Sports: My favorite period in my school was sports period, also in my college. Sports help students engaging in physical activities thus improving the mental health and physical health. So, does this helps in facing real-world problems? Let's analyze how does it impact our real life. As people say "Health is Wealth", What does this mean? Now you may uncertainly ask "Shruthi, Health and Wealth ha, I am not able to digest your words". Before I start my words, who all are thinking "why are you dragging your words?"... why don't you just come to the point? What to do, it's my job folks. Anyways moving on... ok let us analyze in points.
- Sports, in other words, is some sort of physical activities, right?in which it helps our body in maintaining the right amount of nutrients.This is only possible when our digestive system is working at an optimal level because only digested things are carried through the blood and all our cells are nurtured hence keeping you healthy, thus sports helps in maintaining the digestive system thus helping in improving our digestion, sports also cause tiredness in return helping in improving our sleep. Let's don't get deep into this deviating from our main theme. So, why healthy? How is this really connected with our real-world problems? I will tell how... Look, for abstracting the solutions of what problems we are facing, for that, we should be logically strong enough and for this, our brain should be healthy, right? So now, make a relation between brain and digestive system you will arrive with your answer.
- Sports help in building up competitive minds which are very important in this competitive world and having such minds is appreciated. It is very good to have healthy competition, which increases speed, accuracy in our work. We had inter-college competitions from various colleges which were very good. It also gives a lesson that success and failures, both, are part of life. Both should be welcomed and both give some kind of acknowledgment. Success gives us confidence while failures give courage. It also briefs that everyone makes a mistake and mistakes are part and parcel of our lives. So, we undertake new challenges and accept them and learn when mistakes are made. By this way, the learning process continues which helps in tackling the new problems that come.
