BE A SMART STUDENT

BE A SMART STUDENT

We always pray Lord Ganesha before we start any Good work. He is also called as ‘Buddhidata’.

We all are aware of a very famous story of Lord Ganesha.

Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati were sitting in Himalaya. Lord Ganesha and his brother Kartikeya Swami were playing around. Kartikeya Swami asked his mother, “Please let me know who is best, Myself or Ganesha?

Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati smiled and said, “We will give one task to both of you. The one, who completes first, is going to be best.” Ganesha and Kartikeya looked at each other. Devi Parvati continued, “Both of you must go for Prithvi Pradakhina. (Complete one revolution around the earth). The one who completes first is going to be the best.”

Without wasting a single minute, Kartikeya immediately jumped on his Peacock and started his journey.

Ganesha thought for a while. He was quite sure it’s not possible to win the race by sitting on his rat with his big tummy. While thinking a lightening thought brought a sparkling smile on his face.

He made Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati to sit on one Asana. He stood in front of them, bowed down and completed the pradakshina around them.

Later he said, “This is equivalent to Prithvi Pradakhina . The same is taught by you.” Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati were quite impressed by the presence of mind and smart act of their child.

After a long time Kartikeya came back and was surprised to see Ganesha sitting next to Devi Parvati.

So in this way Lord Ganesha proved himself the best.

So my dear students, what is the moral of this story.

Don’t work only hard, work smartly.

Many times whenever the task is assigned to you in school, most of you do the same mistake. You all just jump on it and start your donkey work. Yes, I mean it. Donkey never knows what is placed on his back. He just knows to walk.

So, what can be done? Solution differs for each task, for each assignment.

Whether it’s drawing diagrams, paper solving, subjects, writing, learning, etc.

Solution varies as per the task.

But there are few points which can be commonly applied.

1) Whenever you get any assignment, never start immediately the very next moment. (Don’t even ignore it for long)

2) First think well, understand why this task is given. If you are asked to solve paper, it’s to make you to practice and complete it in time.

3) Later, understand what exactly you are supposed to do.

4) What are the requirements?

5) How can you do it in the best way?

6) Fix the time limit to complete it.

7) Follow your plan till you complete your task.

Following the above step won’t consume much time. Spending few minutes before you begun will yield much better results.

So we say Be a Smart Student.

Different plans work for different tasks. This will be explained with the examples of different situations the students face in school life.
