Vice-Chancellor G. Hemantha Kumar on Thursday said severe competition leads to stress which needs to be managed well if one has to become successful in life. Given the challenges, youth must develop resilience to all kinds of failures, challenges and manage the situation positively so as to achieve the desired goals, he suggested.
Speaking after inaugurating a workshop on “Youth Empowerment” organised by the Other Backward Classes Cell and the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), University of Mysore, here, he said the youth need to adopt to the ever changing demands of life in today’s challenging world. They have to get qualified and then find suitable jobs amidst cut-throat completion.
Failure at any juncture or just the fear of failure makes most of our youth crestfallen and depressed. There are many ways to tackle the problem of stress, finding appropriate way of managing it without affecting our health but this is also a challenge. The best approach is to train our minds to handle stressful situation and stay resilient.
