A LIFE INTO THE LIFE…
INTRODUCTION:
The world history is of billions of years ago and there have been so many civilizations and cultures, which shows that there has been always diversity among the people but one thing that has remained constant over the past is self-actualization which leads to success. As a person is born, he has no experience what the world is going to be in front of him. Although we do not consider that people are evil but still the thing that the “survival of the fittest” makes this assumption that everyone is running its own marathon and there is always competition. The fate is always teaching the person, the things which lead towards success through experiences, hardships and networking, people who have the willingness to learn and act positive, learn from all those experiences and are further destined for their growth, they find such platforms that can help them grow, become confident and develop a better personality. Following all these ideas and thinking I always wanted to enhance my personality and become a better version of myself. So, I am writing this to show my happiness that how much I was able to develop myself through the platform I joined. The place is the Amal academy and soon I will be saying goodbye to my career-prep fellowship. Reminiscing the first two weeks will become easier when I pen it down and specially first two weeks because that was the time, I could see the different ME, so here it goes:
MY PERCEPTION AND EXPERIENCE:
As I joined the Amal academy, I was really excited, I had a strong believe that I will be able to improve myself here and I will become the person I wanted. First of all, I told myself that I was there to learn and I would take everything as an opportunity. So, first session was the day I was introduced with the program manager and the program coordinator, I felt relieved that at least I got the good facilitators. Here, the first step was accomplished. The next thing was the learning, it was a session with learning plus motivation. The main thing that I loved was that I was able to express my viewpoints openly and there was no such thing of right and wrong rather our facilitators encouraged us to speak more. Other thing was the balance between the fellows like they were encouraging and showed humility to each other.
WEEK 1 ACTIVITIES:
The week one session activities included, making a life map which really made me redress my potential and worth and it had a deep impact on me in increasing my confidence level. Apart from this, the week one project work was so fun and it was very different for me as I never had that kind of learning. Also, the video award was the one best thing for me, as I could not imagine myself and I was beyond the happiest. This was a life turning moment and it doubled my confidence level. The things I learned from the project work helped me gain a wider vision and the session was the cherry on the pie.
WEEK 2 ACTIVITIES:
The major change in me occurred when I had the second online course on leadership, I discovered that how leadership with or without authority works. What I used to tell myself was totally opposite what I had discovered and so that altogether changed my perception. Another thing that was the most amazing was the smart goals activity, which I loved the most, I usually have so many goals and I remain confuse about which to accomplish first and this activity let me short list my top goals, overall, this has taught me so much and has brought clarity in my ideas and aims. This helped me to get a positive outlook over every aspect of life and instead of crying over the failed opportunities I can still practice leadership without authority.
OVERALL JOURNEY
In my overall journey what I got was ME, the positivity, the leadership opportunity, my strengths and weaknesses all skimmed through the confusions I used to have. It was like Amal academy returned me myself and I can see this part of my life as the major boundary between my past dark life and present hopeful life. This all thanks goes to Amal academy and my sincere program manager and program coordinator.
