• Problem Solving: It is an analytical skill that helps identifying a problem and finding a possible solution to it. It
requires a person to be creative and intuitive. You should be confident in your approach as you learn which processes
are most effective to overcome obstacles and, which solutions may fail or could even create additional problems.
For example, A teacher has to find on her own, how she can improve the performance of her students.
• Positive Thinking: It is an optimistic approach to handle different situations in life. Rather than getting upset and
blaming others for terrible situations, positive thinking will control the situation with logical reasoning. Remember
that it's your response that truly determines the outcome. For example, A student securing bad marks will reason
out with positive thinking that his efforts were not upto the mark.
• Stress Management: It is the technique to handle the levels of stress in day-to-day life by taking charge of your
emotions, efforts, thoughts, and surroundings. We all have stress—at home and at work. No single method works
for everyone or in every situation, so experiment with different techniques and strategies. Focus on what makes you
feel calm and in control. Don't let stress get in the way of your success. For example, Shifting to a new house with
things scattered all over brings a lot of stress.
• Time Management: It is the method of planning and balancing your time to meet your everyday targets. It deals
how effectively you utilise your time to achieve your goals. Staying organised can help you prioritise your activities
based on their urgency and importance. Focus on your abilities to complete your work in an effective way. For
example, Meeting the deadline of the project assigned in a class.
• Organisational Skills: It is the ability to plan and organise a given task in an effective manner. Good organisational
abilities will prevent difficulty in your work and disorder in your daily life. For example, A student needs to have
necessary material for the assigned activity, stay in their seat, and finish required work before going on to the next
assignment.
