Visual Experience at HOME(AMAL)đ·
Whatâs the first thing that comes to your mind when you read the title, âAMAL Career Prep Fellowshipâ? Definitely, a course that enlighten you with the basic-level tips, techniques, and skills to excel in your professional career, right? However, the Amal learnings go way beyond that. Amal makes you a better individual, both professionally and morally. The journey started with discovering yourself, inculcating moral values, learning traits of a good team player, and the importance of showing gratitude. The best way of remembering something is to associate those things that are closer to you. Hereâs what I can relate the most to my fellowshipâs initial experiences:
1) Gym: đȘ
As I mentioned earlier, associating stuff with something helps you in remembering something. To integrate Amal values in my personal life, I have tried to parallelize them with my routine stuff, and the best thing I found is my gym. In the gym, you need to show:
â Humility: Help others in their exercises.
â Acceptance: Know your limits and push yourself accordingly.
â Growth: Every day should be better than the previous in terms of weight and repetitions.
â Honesty: Be honest in sharing feedback with your juniors
â Responsibility: Responsible not only for your growth but for your partnerâs as well.
2) Wristwatch: â
Time management is the thing with which I struggled the most initially. I used to start my Project Works on Tuesday, but still, they got completed at the eleventh hour of submission. I could not balance the right amount of time I should dedicate to my University and Amalâs Project works. But then, things started to get better.
3) Cup of Tea: â
Chai brings out the most productive side of myself. When I had to draw a life map and Amal Values, I lacked creative ideas. But then, Chai always came to the rescue initially, not only it gave me ideas, but then helped me to do things super quickly.
This fellowship has given me a lot. I am coming out as a much better individual than I was at the start. I found out some of the very best facilitators and a group of fellows, who remained by my side throughout the journey and played a significant part in my growth. Batch 176 will always remain in my heart. We didnât know we were making memories; we were just having funâŠâŠ
