            Self-management, often known as ‘self-control’, is the ability to effectively control one’s emotions, thoughts, and behaviour
            in a variety of settings. This includes encouraging oneself and striving toward personal and academic objectives.
            Students with great self-management abilities do better in specific areas such as arriving on time for class, paying
            attention, respecting teachers, parents, and elders, working with discipline, and so on. It enables a person to do better in
            school or job. To achieve effectiveness at work and in life, one must be able to manage and improve oneself in a variety
            of abilities such as punctuality, discipline, problem-solving, and work habits. To effectively control oneself, one must
            cultivate the following skills:
               • Positive thinking: believing that one is capable of accomplishing one's goals.
               • Result orientation: the ability to think big and work towards attaining the desired or pre-determined results.
               •  Self-awareness: being aware of one’s personality traits, knowing one’s weaknesses and maximising one’s strengths.

            2.1 MOTIVATION AND POSITIVE ATTITUDE

            Motivation and positive thinking can assist us in overcoming our challenges and taking on new objectives. Similarly,
            optimism, which is a mental attitude that expresses a belief or hope, can result in positive and desired consequences.
            It enables us to realise our ambitions, persevere in our pursuit of success, and live a happy life with a positive attitude.
            Optimism is essential to achievement and it is also the foundation of courage and true progress.
                                                                                                   —Nicholas M. Butler
            2.1.1 Motivation

            The term "motivation" is derived from the word "motive." Thus, the essence of motivation is guiding behaviour toward
            a specific objective or goal. An individual's motivation might arise from within (intrinsic motivation) or be motivated by
            people or events outside of themselves (extrinsic motivation).
