3. Choosing a career path can help you set
professional goals and develop a strategy
for getting where you want to be.
Part of choosing an appropriate career
path involves making an honest self-
evaluation of your talents, abilities and
interests.
While elements of your path may change
over time due to choice or circumstance,
having an overall professional objective
with which to guide yourself will help you
make critical decisions with greater clarity.

5. Learn
Complex
Things
Faster
The more knowledge you have, the easier you will be able
to learn other things.
For example, think about math. You start off doing math
with addition. Addition may have been a problem for you at
the beginning, but you eventually understand it. You then
learn a new concept, multiplication.
By the time you’re done with mathematics, you will realize
that the most difficult concepts you initially had problems
with have made the newer, even more difficult concepts,
easier to understand.
Taking advantage of your knowledge, using it, and
managing it properly is ideal if you truly want to make full
use of your intellect.

6. Knowledge
Helps You
Solve
Problems
With knowledge, you can improve your
abilities of thinking critically. The problems
you face in class, you may face in real life.
Not only does this knowledge help you
deal with specific problems, but being put
into situations where you have to think
critically gives you experience.
You can deal with something and
acknowledge when something is beyond
you mentally. Most importantly though is
that you can gain more knowledge to
overcome your problems.

8. Sense of
Togetherness
• A sense of togetherness lies in the soul of every individual.
• This comes from our care and dependency on our fellow beings.
• From our childhood days to our adulthood, we care for our family
members, our relatives, our neighbors and friends.
• This leads to a need of togetherness among people, which helps
in creating a community.
Division of Work
• . In every walk of our lives, we have to depend on others apart
from our family members.
• For example, the cobbler repairs shoes for us, the barber cuts our
hair, tailor stitches fashionable clothes for us, butcher cuts meat
for us, bakers prepares biscuits for us, engineers make houses for
us, etc.

13. Establishing a
Foundation for the
Family
• A foundation supports
a family.
• When crises arise, the
family is able to
withstand them
because of the stability
of the relational
structure.
• Families with defined
values are able to
stand strong on their
views despite other
people's efforts to
break through with
opposing beliefs.
Influencing Decision
Making
• Family values influence
the decisions people
make both within the
family structure and
outside of it.
• Making a decision
about important topics
can be difficult, and
people may feel
helpless if they don't
know which way to
proceed.
• Therefore, having solid
family values helps
people make the right
decisions in life.
Guidance for Raising
Children
• Parenting can be a
challenge and with all
of the world's
influences, it can be
downright scary.
• Knowing what you
believe in as a parent
and what you want for
your children will help
you raise them to be
responsible and
conscientious adults.

15. Imagine how great it would
be to stay calm, focused,
and undisturbed by
circumstances and people!
Instead of getting anxious and
fearful, instead of thinking
negative thoughts and
expecting the worst, instead of
getting tense, unsatisfied and
unhappy, you can choose to
stay emotionally and mentally
poised and unshaken.
You can experience inner
peace and happiness, as well
as inner strength and
confidence.
Peace of mind, which is
inner peace, offers
countless benefits:
Better concentration ability.
Efficiency in handling your daily
affairs of life.
A sense of inner strength and
power.
More patience, tolerance
and tact.
Freedom from stress, anxieties
and worries.
A sense of inner happiness and
bliss.
Falling asleep easily and
sleeping soundly.

17. • Physical activity is one of the key components of
practicing good health
• Incorporating exercise into your daily life strengthens
your body, helps you look better and feel better about
yourself.
• A lack of exercise increases your risk of heart disease,
diabetes and stroke; makes you more likely to suffer
from accidental injuries; and may shorten your lifespan.
Exercise
• In today's fast-paced world, healthy eating can be a
challenge for anyone trying to practice good health.
• Eating healthy supports all of your body's activities, from
your ability to fight off illnesses to your ability to make
decisions and learn.

18. • Maintaining a strong level of social support helps in practicing
good mental and emotional health.
• Making friends with like-minded people may also help you
maintain other healthy behaviors such as good nutrition and
regular exercise.
• Having friendships of many types, from a few very close friends
to a large circle of acquaintances, is the basis of a strong social
network that helps you deal with life's stress.
Social
Support
• At some point during life, everyone has a stressful situation to
deal with.
• From minor everyday annoyances such as traffic jams to a
catastrophic event such as the loss of a child, the ability to cope
with stress is an important part of practicing good health.
• Focusing on the positive in the situation.
• Getting a massage, reading a book or playing with your pet are
ways to practice good health in the face of stress.
