Q1. Write an article of 250 words on any of the following topics:
You Are God’s Greatest Miracle
The Power of Self Confidence
Answer:-
The Power of Self Confidence
Self-confidence is a state of mind where someone pushes their boundaries and
encourages belief from the very beginning, and this comes from a place of self-
love. You ought to love yourself to gain that freedom from doubting your
actions. Self Confidence is the key to success, or we can say it the first step
towards success. If a person possesses self-confidence, then he/she has
inevitably won half the battle.
We see people in school, workplaces and public sectors who have achieved
success be more initiative, more forward and active, and more confident with
their decisions, making them stand out from the crowd. But when it comes to a
person who cannot trust themselves or believe in themselves, success is a hard
gain for them. They become more vulnerable to criticism and failure. They also
find it super hard to get back on their feet and carry on.
Everyone who has self-confidence gets to enjoy various perks that come along
with that state of mind. One of them being is finding the magnitude of a
difficult job lesser than it is. It helps you face your failure and own up to it in a
positive light. It helps you rise multiple times to believe that you will excel and
improve in your next attempt.
But one why does it make a self-confidence person more persist-able to
success? — It’s not because they are lucky, or smarter, or because of
something external. It’s because self-confident people understand the impact
of believing in themselves and relying on their abilities. Just like self-love, self-
confidence takes time to acquire. But once you start believing in yourself, no
one can stop you from conquering all the heights in your life and career. This is
the power of self-confidence that helps you in conquering all the heights in
your life and career.
Q2. Describe any incident that occurred in your life which taught you a
valuable lesson and what was it. (150 words)
Answer:-
Hopelessness and helplessness phase of life teaches you some of the most
valuable lessons in life. Sometimes failure and hardship make you wiser and
stronger than any success or achievements in life. My family has gone through
financial crises in 2020 during the pandemic situation caused by covid-19 and it
thought me valuable lesson that I can’t forget.
Nobody likes to get financially paralyzed. But this financial tragedy can be a
great lesson to learn from. The Mistakes that we did that was poor money
management, little to no savings, etc. In today’s society, People judge others
by their financial conditions. This phase will make you understand the truth of
the people who once said that they will stand by you always. The more money
one has the more respect one gets. Thus losing a job and sitting at home
becomes a depressive period of life. This pandemic thought me we should
always save money and don’t waste it on unnecessary things.
This phase will make you understand the importance of family support, the
value taking right decisions at right time, investing your time and energy on
things that will make your future bright.
Q3. Explain the following statement “Can money buy happiness?” (150 words)
Answer:-
“Can money buy happiness?”
Happiness is always defined differently by different people. Somebody’s
happiness is from the materialistic pleasures or one multiplies his / her
happiness by helping others, being calm and caring. This kind of happiness
cannot be bought with money.
Life is very simple but we make it complicated. The basic rule of life includes
‘Needs and Wants’. The things which are basics for human survival like food,
clothes, shelter etc. are the needs. Sufficient money, electricity, education, and
transport. Once a man fulfils his basic needs, he doesn’t stop there, he desires
for more. It is good to be ambitious but when one becomes greedy and selfish
then the ultimate goals of life are replaced with materialistic things.
It will be wrong to say that money is not important. Just imagine, you are
travelling somewhere with your family. That journey with family is the
happiness but the fuel required to run the car throughout the journey requires
money. Human life also works the same way, money is essential to run the life
and it is very difficult to survive without money. But it should be noted that
money is an essential part of modern life and one cannot survive without it but
one should not make money as the sole source of happiness. Money can buy
pleasures but not happiness and these two things should be kept different.
