Session on “Self Management” for Faculty & Students facilitated by Col. Mahendra Babu (Retd.)
 The most precious thing we possess is our self and the same should be managed effectively. With this message, Col. Mahendra Babu (Retd.) facilitated the session on “Self Management” to the faculty & students. He served 34 years in the Indian Army and was a part of the operation “Parakram” – Army was deployed all along the border for 1 year after the attack on Indian Parliament. During the session, he urged the teachers and students to inculcate the habit of “Talk to yourself” which can be easily attained by “Write to yourself” – Write as if someone else is writing about you. He gave strategies on Self Management which he urged the participants to practice. Better the Emotional Intelligence (EI) better will be the Self Management Skills. He also shared the importance of Self Control and gave inputs on how it can be attained. He threw light on Shreya (GOOD) & Preya (PLEASANT). We know what is good for us; however we always want to do what is pleasant for us. Hence any activity or Likes/Dislikes that come our way should be first analyzed whether it is Shreya or Preya, then choose the Shreya (the inner voice may remind you of Preya), forget that Preya exists and practice the Shreya. By doing this, one shall definitely master the art of “Self Control”. He also shared the “Bhishma Nithi” of Mahabharatha wherein one should stay away from these people – Lazy, Non-Believers, Aggressive, Jealous & Hateful and Alcoholic in nature. He concluded his session by stating that thrown stone, spoken words, lost opportunities and time will never come back hence practicing Self Management will be vital for the rest of the life.
