उत्तर
The importance of developing a positive attitude:
Respected Chief Guest, dignitaries on the Dias, teachers, and my dear friends. I would like to say a few words on the importance of developing a positive attitude.
A positive attitude is necessary to succeed in life. A person with a positive attitude has self-confidence and empathy. To highlight this I would like to quote some incidents in the life of Amelia Earhart, the first woman pilot. She watched a pilot taking off in his small plane. On the runway, he wanted to scare her, he drove the small plane very close to her, she didn’t panic or run away. The plane which whizzed past her seemed to invite her. She worked at various jobs such as photographer, truck driver, and stenographer. She managed to save 1000 dollars for her flying lessons. In order to reach the airfield, Amelia had to take a bus to the end of the line and walk 6 km. Earhart’s commitment to flying required her to accept frequent hard work. After proving her professional skills as a lady pilot, she popularized flying and encouraged many girls to take pilot training. She proved that women can also shine in the field which was till then dominated by men.
The next best example is the positive attitude of Abinandan, the pilot whose parachute drifted into Pakistan and was taken a prisoner. Even while in the custody of the Pak military, he did not lose his confidence. He conducted himself bravely. He did not fear, he believed in himself and in his country. He is back home as a living legend spreading the message that a positive attitude can help one overcome any obstacle in life.
