My dear young and ambitious friends do not drift through life on autopilot. Observe what surrounds you. Question what you accept. Reflect on what you pursue. Grades, titles and applause matter but they are not substitutes for thought. Examine your choices. Understand your motivations. Learn not just what to think but how to think ? Growth begins the moment you pause, observe and ask, Why? Make reflection a discipline, not an afterthought. That is how wisdom is formed and character revealed. Live deliberately. Think deeply. That is the mark of an educated mind !
