simple tricks

Three : Simple mechanical fixing etc

I really lament the lack of this knowledge, when I was in my teenage I have often searched for such institutes which provide crash courses on electronics, carpentry, fixing of household gadgets etc in my small town. It came ten years later, but by that time I was fully engrossed in my career.


But that’s not the scenario any more, now even small towns have such facilities, so if children are enrolled in such courses during summer vacations, they make them far more complete as a human being. It enhances their skills, their self confidence and their capacity to handle trivial problems. In today’s world both boys and girls go out of their family home at young age, and sometimes they live in far away cities alone, so, they have to play the role of both.. the man and woman in their bachelor’s den, these tricks will become too handy for them then.
Not only that, these small skills like a crash course in painting, beautician, doll making, carpentary, electricals, electronics can boost up one’s self satisfaction level to a great limit.

I have always pursued multiple things in life, even though I am not talented but I have tried my hands on writing, painting, singing, guitar etc. Small town environment did not gave me much chance to pursue my fascinations but whatever expertise I gathered I relish it till now. I am a home manager, my hobbies are giving me immense joy and happiness. And I can understand another big truth, that if I had the chance of learning every thing I wanted to learn starting from beautician to doll making, I would have easily earned a hefty pocket money straight from home.

Learning only the materials supplied by school, college and university does not makes a complete human being. We have a life outside our career. To fully develop ourselve as satisfied human beings we should concentrate on our inner self, and try to learn things which will make us more complete and happy.


One should be careful about one thing only, that these hobbies don’t hamper his main career or studies related to that, these should be treated as only hobbies, and he should fix time for these, a fixed time capsule during which he will be doing all of these, and should not cross that time limit. That will teach him putting priority before enjoyment. A big lesson in self control.

That lesson will be proved handy time and time again during his career, when he will have to select between the boring special class after office and date with girl friend.
