The Most Important Lesson Learned

AMAL Academy is the platform that helps you in your personal development, growth and also helps you in acquiring new skills that will be beneficial for your personal and professional life. I learned a lot during this fellowship. It is a fun and activity-based learning system which will help you absorb the lesson in a better way, because learning with activities is the thing which everyone finds interesting and when your interest develops in something then you can learn a lot.

I have learned plenty of lessons during this fellowship which is as follows:

· AMAL (Just Start)

· KHUDI (Knowing yourself)

· Interview Skills through PASSENGER series

· Positive and growth mindset

· Coming out of your comfort zone

These are some of the lessons that I found interesting and beneficial during the fellowship but the most important lesson that I think I learned during this fellowship is about “Khudi-Knowing Yourself”. I am such a type of person who always used to think that what is the purpose of my life? What I was made for? What is my passion? Why I’m doing this? I was always curious to know the answer to these questions and finally, with the help of AMAL fellowship, I have got my direction and have clear ideas in my mind.

The reason why I think this is important is that in this contemporary era students start learning without knowing their interests and in turn stuck in such situations where they will not be able to perform well because this is not their passion, this is not what they want to achieve. If we have proper counseling at an early stage about “Knowing Yourself” then we will be able to achieve our goals and a sense of satisfaction in ourselves.

Now the thing is that if you have a clear image of your future goals, and how will you achieve them? This can only be done by coming out of your comfort zone. If you are going to stick to your seat how will you achieve your aim? For achieving goals you have to accept changes in your life, start learning from your failure. If you have such a mindset and you are willing to come out of your comfort zone then you will achieve whatever you want to achieve in your life.

In conclusion, the most important lesson that I have learned during the fellowship is “KHUDI” means Knowing Yourself and how to set goals and achieve them by coming out of your comfort zone. After the fellowship, I will do my best to learn new things exceeding the boundaries of the comfort zone. Because you can earn something only when you are willing to learn from your failures.

And in the end, I want to say that I’m leaving here today with a wealth of great knowledge and love I will always treasure. I want to conclude with that, this is not ending and I’m still learning as I’m a lifelong learner.
