Beyond the Classroom: The Real-World Impact of Learning

I have learned resilience from this course. I am not saying that I was
not a resilient person before, but after understanding the importance
of this quality, I feel more confident in strengthening my ability to be
resilient. When the professor explained examples of how many great
people have demonstrated resilience, I strongly believed that no
matter what I am doing in life, if I face difficulties or failures, I will
remain resilient and continue working until I achieve my goals.

One day, the professor discussed the importance of having clear goals
in life. Before this course, my goals were very abstract—I would just
think about them without a clear plan. However, the professor
emphasized that goals should always be crystal clear and written
down. Now, I am setting clear short-term goals (achievable within the
next one to two years). These short-term goals help me focus on what
truly matters in the present, reducing distractions.

In class, I also learned about teamwork—what a team is, the qualities


of good team members, and how teamwork makes an impact. During
my B.Tech, I have been part of many projects, but most of them did
not create a significant impact. This was because some team
members were more concerned about their individual performance
rather than the team's success. Also, some leaders had the mindset of
doing all the work alone, which sometimes reduced the team's
efficiency. Instead, a good leader should delegate tasks and ensure
that teamwork is prioritized over individual achievements. In the future,
I will keep these points in mind and implement them before joining any
new team.

Another important lesson I learned in class is how impactful


conversations can benefit us. I interact with many people every day,
but sometimes I just listen without contributing to the conversation. I
realized that this behavior might disappoint the other person because
they might assume I am not interested. As a result, when I speak, they
may also pretend to listen. Now, I am changing this. If I am genuinely
interested in a conversation, I will listen actively and respond. If I am
not interested, I will politely ask if we can talk later or discuss
something else. This way, conversations become more meaningful,
and I don’t waste time on discussions that don’t interest me.

Additionally, instead of using the internet solely for entertainment, I


now prefer meeting my friends and talking with them to refresh my
mind.
