A motivation and interface programme organised by Nagaland State Social Welfare Board (NSSWB) in collaboration with State Resource Centre for Women (SRCW) under the theme ‘NAGC-Inspiring Future’ was held at Mezhür Higher Secondary School, Kohima today with Third Secretary (POL) Embassy of India, Seoul, South Korea, Mijito V. Chishi, IFS, and Youthnet Strategist, Lezo Putsüre as the speakers.
In his address, Chishi challenged the students stating “Success doesn’t mean the absence of failures. Failure is a part and parcel of our career as such self assessment and how to bounce back thereafter was more important.”
He further urged the students to set goals on the basis of their plans and asked them to inculcate the habit of reading so as to develop writing as well as communication skills. He also stressed on the importance of civic sense which implied directly to our mindset. “Civic sense is confined not only to cleanliness alone but also as to how we treat others,” Chishi said.
Youthnet Strategist, Putsüre said that women are much smarter than men in our Naga society. He also said that if given a platform, women could play good role as men in all fields. Therefore, parents need to provide enough space for women to become successful.
