What is Skill Development?
Skill Development is for determining the skill gaps and overcome them. Skills are required to define one’s ability and this ability is the sole reason behind the successful implementation of plans.
Everyone in this world is a master of their own story!
Each individual on this planet has some skill or unique talent and life are all about discovering that one X factor within yourself. The only introspection your own experiences would help you out to determine this.Just like a network, so many things are interrelated with your skills such as your aspiration, your goals, your achievements.
A right set of skill is mandatory to proceed in the right direction that will lead to accomplishing your aim.Lack of skills is also the reason behind your frustration when you will not be able to succeed and unnecessarily waste your time.When someone gets mastery in their skill, it is the result of the hard work of countless hours.It is the human mentality, that we generally give attention to the accolades but give a thought to the countless efforts that were made by the person to achieve that accolades.
Why Skill Development is important?
Skill development is like a valuable addition to your life. Everyone needs to be independently capable to earn their own bread and butter for survival in this competitive world.
In this rapidly changing world if you want to survive by your own then skills are the must.
It is important to understand that knowledge doesn’t guarantee skill, practice does. Theory knowledge can give an imaginative structure but only practical knowledge can give a real exposure. Books are sufficient to throw light through someone else thought process but if you need to create own empire student need to come out of their comfort zone and implement their knowledge into the real world.
Only sitting into the classroom the students can only view what the world is showing to them but if they try to implement that in their life, they can surely change the world one day.
The lessons are not given in the books only, there is some lesson which is learned for life and a human mind have the capability to memorise that thing for a long time in which it was physically and mentally present and make efforts for it.
It also helps to increases the thinking capability of students.
Your skill should not restrict you with respect to the time your skill should be adaptable as per the need.
Everyone needs money for their livelihood but are they able to earn it?
Here skill comes into the picture where it ensures that an individual has some capability that can be turned out into the profession.
Today’s generation understand the importance of education that’s why parents are trying their level best to provide good quality education to their children irrespective of their financial state.
