CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Dr. Pallavi Rao Chaturvedi and Jaya Kishori addressed the students in a special session organized at Rabindranath Tagore University. The session was moderated by Dr. Pallavi Rao Chaturvedi, a parenting coach and the founder of Get Set Parent. The event was attended by RNTU’s Pro-Chancellor Dr. Aditi Chaturvedi Vats, along with a large number of faculty members and students from the university.
During the discussion, responding to a question about careers posed by Dr. Pallavi Chaturvedi, Jaya Kishori advised that when choosing a career or profession, it is important to consider both its advantages and disadvantages. If you feel comfortable with the negative aspects of a job, then you should consider pursuing it as a career. She emphasized that one should not choose a job or career solely for the allure of high earnings.
Social Media is Not the Real World…
Talking about social media, Jaya Kishori mentioned that social media is not the real world because everyone tries to show only their best side. No one posts bad photos or negative aspects on social media. Therefore, one should not rely too heavily on social media, nor be influenced by it.
Don’t Tie Your Happiness to Material Things…
When asked how to achieve goals and ambitions without losing happiness, Jaya Kishori responded that if you tie your happiness to material things, you will never be truly happy. Happiness is something you create within yourself; it cannot be derived from external objects. External objects can only provide comfort. The same applies to money—work hard to earn it for your comfort, but bring happiness from within.
Parents’ Approach Might Be Wrong, But Their Intentions Are Always Right…
Addressing a question related to the generation gap, Jaya Kishori said that children often disagree with their parents on many matters, which can lead to conflicts. However, children need to understand that parents can also make mistakes because they are human. While their method of explaining things might be wrong, their intentions are never wrong.
