In the auspicious occasion of Guru Purnima, a special event was organized by Unnati (a school of learning) for children from humble backgrounds. The highlight of the event was a motivational talk by retired Colonel Tej K. Tikoo, who shared valuable life lessons and inspired the children to reach for their dreams. Col. Tikoo emphasized the importance of:
– Anger management: controlling temper and channeling energy into positive outlets
– Time management: prioritizing studies and making the most of time
He encouraged the children to learn from their parents’ self-employment and understand the value of their hard work and dedication despite lack of formal education. After the motivational talk, retired Colonel Tikoo distributed stationery items to all the students, providing them with the tools they need to succeed. Additionally, the students received certificates for participating in a yoga session conducted by Neetu Varshney Ma’am on the International Day of Yoga. The teachers expressed their heartfelt gratitude to Col. Tikoo by presenting him with a plant, symbolizing growth and appreciation.
The event concluded with a sense of inspiration and hope, as the children left with renewed determination and a deeper understanding of the value of hard work, time management, and anger management.
