Session on “Secret of Success” on the occasion of National Youth Day and Tribute to Swami Vivekananda

On the occasion of National Youth Day and tribute to the teachings of Swami Vivekananda on empowering youth, the Sahyadri NSS unit organized a session on “Secret of Success” facilitated by Dr. Shikaripura Krishnamurthy, Director of Abhiyaanam, Mangaluru for the 1st year Engineering students on 12th Jan, 2022.
Dr. Shikaripura Krishnamurthy, in his talk, emphasized on the qualities that youth need to possess in order to be a good leader. Out of all the references shared by Dr. Krishnamurthy, the most inspiring was - “how a deer goes in search of a sweet musk in its surroundings rather than realizing that the smell is within it”. Leadership is all about realizing one’s own Musk and nurture it.

He voiced out that the key to success is not just hard work but being smart to prioritize the task and effectively utilize the available resources. His session was concluded with the “12 secrets of success” and urged students to practice it in their daily life. A total of 100 students participated in the session along with faculty of different departments.
