WE ARE PROUD TO BE TAGORIANS

 GOAL SETTING

Dear RTSS kids,

I want to share something crucial with you all. Each year when I admit a new cohort of kids to RTSS, I always tell your parents that future lawyers, doctors, engineers, chartered accountants etc are stepping into the school compound. I am like a gardener who can see huge trees when he is given seeds in his hands. 

I would like all of you to ponder over what follows.

Just don't add days to your life. Be proactive and plan ahead. Ask yourselves, where you would like to be in one year, five years and 15 years and so on. You need to work hard to reach your destination, your GOAL. Academically, professionally, emotionally etc, you have to grow and develop. You need to set clear targets and aim hard to make them come true. Life is not a PASSIVE thing; you just can't allow things to happen to you. You need to make things happen for you. Just have a look at youngsters around you-most are not like you. You would not like to be like most of them. You would like to go ahead in life-you want to have the assurance that things would be better tomorrow. You need to have dreams-unselfish dreams, dreams which have place for your parents, friends and siblings. You want to be happy. Well, what are you doing which will help you achieve those dreams. Set GOALS, have an AIM in life. Live intelligently.

I dream that all of you will be successful and happy. I want all of you to make it BIG in life. HSC is not everything. There will be other exams, other competitions, other struggles. There will be ups and downs in life. You need to get ready to face the tribulations of life. Are you giving 100% of yourselves in whatever you are undertaking? Be honest with yourself at least. You can't lie to yourself-ask yourself whether you can improve the quality of your life or not? Can you obtain better grades? Can you strive for a better life? Can you bring a change in the lives of others? Can you make your parents prouder than they are by your actions and achievements?

Develop short term and long term goals.

Devote your time during this present holiday boosting your own confidence in your studies. If you are in lower six, make sure you have revised the notes of first and second terms well. If you are in upper six, then get ready for the last leg. Can you convert a D into a C or B, can you move from 95% to 97 or 98%? Can you write your names among the best of your batch? Will you be remembered as the best students of your school?

Avoid time wasters-Facebook, sms, gambling, flirting, loitering around, oversleeping, gossiping, television etc

Devote quality time. Bring quality to your life. Live life differently. Live like the best Leader that you can be. Imagine yourselves as BILL GATES or Mother Theresa or Gandhi or Obama or Martin Luther King. Imagine that you are the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the best Multinational of the world. Don't live life like simpletons. You carry in you WINNERS and LEADERS. You represent the hope and future of so many people-your parents, your teachers, and your country and of this world.

Go ahead and grab life and be ready to face it.

I hope you will rise a better and wiser person tomorrow.

I wish all of you non stop happiness and success.

Caring for all of you, all the way. 

M Gungapersad
