Your background and skills have motivated you towards business and now you seek admission to accomplish a degree in “Business Management” at a reputed university. Prepare a ‘statement of purpose’ in about 100 to 150 words, which will help you to get admission to this University.

Answer:

Business Management is the work devoted to organizing, analyzing, and planning various types of business operations. Ever since childhood the functions of the business management have fascinated me. My father is a business person. I have been captivated by the way he deals with all the challenges in his business.

I aspire to study business management principally because of the diversity of both the subject and its applications. I find it fascinating and challenging at the same time. Having studied the processes from my father’s business, I believe that the possible depths to which it may be studied are almost endless, and the number of real-life situations to which it is relevant is similarly vast.

I am also interested in studying the all fields of business management and I aspire to further study the ideas, concepts and practices to acquire rational decision-making for improving business management. I read many life stories of business persons. They intensified my desire to go deeper into the field.

To further understand the practical applications of business management, I want to join the course which is prescribed in this university. This study plays a key role in the running of my own business.

3.3 Note Making

Note-making: It  is  an active  and  focused  ‘writing  skill’.  Here  concrete connection between all relevant concepts and words is drawn to infuse or connect all thoughts together by a method. (points, tree diagram or a table etc.)

Note Making is a way of recording important details from a source. This source can be any book, article, or a passage. In note making, the writer records the essence of the information. It helps to understand the main information. Note making saves a lot of time. One can get a glimpse of a lot of information from a short note. A note making involves the selection, analysis, summarization, and organization of information.

Std. XI- 2.3 There is Another Sky

Std. XI- 2.3 There is Another Sky

2.3 There is Another Sky

 

Title: There is Another Sky

      'There is Another Sky' is an inspirational poem with a message of 'never say-die'. The poet presents two worlds through the title, one is the real world to which the poet and her brother belong. The other one is an imaginative place where both of them take refuge to stay away from the troubles of contemporary times.

The poem: There is Another Sky

The poem is a Petrarchan sonnet with octave and sestet. The poet is communicating to her brother through a letter. She encourages her brother not to get depressed under any circumstances and pleads with him to return home.

Life is full of challenges; one can tackle the challenges with a positive attitude. The poem ends on an optimistic note. The brighter garden stands for choices that life offers to all.

The Poet: Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson is an American poet of the nineteenth century. She lived a lonely life. Most of her poems are motivational and philosophical. They are unique to her era and are characterised by simple and short lines. She often used slant rhymes and unconventional capitalization and punctuation. Her poems are the psalms and hymns of life in all its shades.

Theme:

There is Another Sky" is a sonnet written by Emily Dickinson. The poet wants to convey to the readers that beyond the physical sky, there lies an additional sky. The theme of the sonnet highlights the importance of never giving up and always looking for the best to come.

Q.1 Read the extract and complete the activities given below. (12)

                  I had a very simple upbringing. We were a lower middle-class family. Our 300 square feet house did not even have basic amenities such as a fan, a refrigerator, a geyser, a dining table or a gas stove; leave alone an air conditioner or a car. It was only when I entered the college that I got a watch and we got a dining table and a gas stove at home. Nevertheless, culturally, I had a rich childhood. Poets like Vinda Karandikar, Mangesh Padgaonkar and Vasant Bapat used to visit our home and for hours I could listen to the discussions about poetry and literature-Marathi and English. They used to talk about Keshavsut, Mardhekar, Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy. I did not fully understand their discussions in depth, but I was immensely impressed. We also were lucky to have Pt. Kumar Gandharv, Pt. Bhimsen Joshi and Pt. Jasraj visit our place and talk about Indian music till late night or sometimes dawn. This is how and why I developed my interest in literature and music during my school days. I did not and even today don’t understand the ‘grammar’ of music, but I began to love it tremendously since then.

             Most of the times, the topics of discussion at our home were about music, literature, paintings, sculptures etc. I could listen to the discussions about Van Gogh, Mozart and Michaelangelo etc. It was because of such a milieu around me that I had a firm belief which I still hold that all arts are equally, if not more, important in our lives than Science or Technology. I had learnt from my childhood that money does not mean everything in life. It is necessary, but if at all there is something which enriches our lives and puts meaning to our existence, it is the arts, music and literature.

Speech on farewell function day By Prof. Vaishali Jane Madam

Speech on farewell function day By Prof. Vaishali Jane Madam


Speech on farewell function day.(For teacher) By Prof Vaishali Jane:

          Exuberant morning to one and all. Hon'ble chairperson of the farewell function, my colleagues and all my dear students, today the time has come to bid adieu to you with a heavy heart.
          You are going to begin the new chapter of your lives. Now you are going to appear for Board exam which is called the turning point of life because this exam turns your lives. I hope you have prepared well for scoring good marks. You will definitely get success. But unfortunately if some of you don't get success, won't give up. It is said that Failure is the stepping stone of success. So try again and again until you get success. Don't quit. Remember 'winners never quit, quitters never win'. Sometimes efforts may fail but don't fail to do efforts.    Determination, hard work and perseverance are the keys to succeed. So you should use these keys in your lives and also avoid delaying tendency because Tomorrow never comes.
Utilize each and every moment properly.
           One more thing I would like to say is that never forget three things in your lives i.e. your parents, teachers and motherland. Soar high like birds, fly high like the kites but remain down to earth. Follow our Indian culture. Don't imitate the western culture under name of modernity. Be the ideal citizens and earn the name and fame.
          Wish you all the best for the upcoming board exam.
Thank you

Very good morning to everybody. Hon'ble president of this farewell function, respected teachers and my dear friends, time has come to leave this college with a heavy heart but with the wealth of knowledge. It has been a great learning experience for me.
          I am thankful to all my faculties from whom I have acquired various skills. The blessings of our great teachers are always with me.
           I have learnt how to take decisions, how to behave in society. I have also learnt to be open minded, to value other people's opinions and to consider others' ideas along with mine. Apart from the syllabus, all the teachers have taught me many good things which are essential for my future. I have been given practical knowledge to bring positive changes in my own life as well as in others' lives
I am grateful to all my teachers for their kind help whenever it has been asked for. I will never forget my classmates and their support in many activities which are necessary to become responsible student.
          Once again I express my gratitude towards all my classmates, seniors and all my teachers.
 Friends, wish you all the best for your board exam and the career.
Thank you.
