Time is one of the most valuable resources we have.

It includes setting goals, making a schedule, and avoiding distractions like mobile phones, TV, and unnecessary chatting.
इसमें लक्ष्य तय करना, एक दिनचर्या बनाना और ध्यान भटकाने वाली चीजों से बचना शामिल है — जैसे मोबाइल फोन, टीवी और अनावश्यक बातचीत।

For students, time management is the key to success.
छात्रों के लिए, समय का सही उपयोग सफलता की कुंजी है।

If we manage time well, we can do our homework, play, rest, and still learn something new.
अगर हम समय का सही उपयोग करें, तो पढ़ाई, खेल, आराम और नया सीखना — सब कुछ आसानी से कर सकते हैं।

It helps us become more organized, confident, and stress-free.
यह हमें ज्यादा व्यवस्थित, आत्मविश्वासी और तनावमुक्त बनाता है।

Time management also builds discipline and makes us more responsible.
समय प्रबंधन हमें अनुशासन सिखाता है और जिम्मेदार बनाता है।

Topic 10 - The Value of Honesty – ईमानदारी का मूल्य

“The Value of Honesty – ईमानदारी का मूल्य”

Good morning everyone!
सुप्रभात सभी को!

Today, I am going to speak on a very important topic – The Value of Honesty.
आज मैं एक बहुत महत्वपूर्ण विषय पर बोलने जा रहा/रही हूँ – ईमानदारी का मूल्य।

Honesty means telling the truth, being sincere, and doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
ईमानदारी का मतलब है सच बोलना, ईमानदार रहना, और सही काम करना, चाहे कोई देख रहा हो या नहीं।

In today’s world, where people often choose shortcuts and lies, honesty makes us truly respected.
आज की दुनिया में, जहाँ लोग अक्सर शॉर्टकट और झूठ का सहारा लेते हैं, वहाँ ईमानदारी ही असली सम्मान दिलाती है।

An honest person builds trust – whether in school, at home, or at work.
एक ईमानदार व्यक्ति पर स्कूल, घर या कार्यस्थल – हर जगह भरोसा किया जाता है।

Honesty may not always give quick success, but it always gives long-term peace and happiness.
ईमानदारी से तुरंत सफलता नहीं मिलती, लेकिन यह लंबे समय तक शांति और संतोष जरूर देती है।

Mahatma Gandhi once said, “Honesty is the best policy.” And it is true!
महात्मा गांधी ने कहा था – “ईमानदारी सबसे अच्छी नीति है।” और यह बिल्कुल सही है।

We should practice honesty in small things – like not cheating in exams, not lying to parents, and keeping promises.
हमें छोटी-छोटी बातों में भी ईमानदारी रखनी चाहिए – जैसे परीक्षा में नकल करना, माता-पिता से झूठ न बोलना, और वादे निभाना।

Honesty gives us inner strength and self-respect.
ईमानदारी हमें आंतरिक शक्ति और आत्म-सम्मान देती है।

Let’s promise today to always be honest – with ourselves and with others.
आइए आज हम सब यह वादा करें कि हम हमेशा ईमानदार रहेंगे – अपने आप से और दूसरों से भी।

Thank you!
धन्यवाद!

Topic 11 - Clean India – Green India – स्वच्छ भारत – हरित भारत

“Clean India – Green India – स्वच्छ भारत – हरित भारत”

Good morning everyone!
सुप्रभात सभी को!

Today, I am going to speak on a very meaningful topic – Clean India, Green India.
आज मैं एक बहुत ही महत्वपूर्ण विषय पर बोलने जा रहा/रही हूँ – स्वच्छ भारत – हरित भारत।

Cleanliness and greenery are the two pillars of a healthy and happy nation.
स्वच्छता और हरियाली एक स्वस्थ और खुशहाल राष्ट्र के दो मुख्य स्तंभ हैं।

A clean India means no garbage on the roads, clean toilets, and proper waste disposal.
स्वच्छ भारत का मतलब है – सड़कों पर कचरा नहीं, साफ़ शौचालय, और कचरे का सही निपटान।

A green India means planting more trees, saving water, and protecting the environment.
हरित भारत का मतलब है – ज्यादा पेड़ लगाना, पानी बचाना और पर्यावरण की रक्षा करना।

Mahatma Gandhi once said, “Cleanliness is next to godliness.”
महात्मा गांधी ने कहा था – “स्वच्छता ईश्वर के समान है।”

We must keep our homes, schools, and surroundings clean.
हमें अपने घर, स्कूल और आस-पास के इलाकों को साफ़ रखना चाहिए।

Planting trees is not just a duty but a gift to our future generations.
पेड़ लगाना सिर्फ़ एक कर्तव्य नहीं, बल्कि आने वाली पीढ़ियों के लिए एक उपहार है।

We can start small – say no to plastic, use dustbins, recycle waste, and take part in cleanliness drives.
हम छोटे-छोटे कदमों से शुरुआत कर सकते हैं – प्लास्टिक का प्रयोग न करें, कूड़ेदान का इस्तेमाल करें, कचरा पुनः उपयोग करें और सफाई अभियानों में भाग लें।

If each one of us takes responsibility, India will become not only cleaner and greener, but also healthier and prouder.
अगर हम सभी यह जिम्मेदारी लें, तो भारत न सिर्फ़ साफ़ और हरा-भरा बनेगा, बल्कि और भी गौरवशाली और स्वस्थ होगा।

So let’s take a pledge today:
तो आइए आज हम यह संकल्प लें:

Clean India, Green India – My India, Your India, Our India!
स्वच्छ भारत – हरित भारत – मेरा भारत, तुम्हारा भारत, हमारा भारत!

Thank you!
धन्यवाद!

Good morning everyone!
सुप्रभात सभी को!

Today, I am here to talk about something that affects all of us — Plastic.

We use plastic every day — in bags, bottles, straws, packaging… it’s everywhere!
हम हर दिन प्लास्टिक का इस्तेमाल करते हैं — थैलियों में, बोतलों में, स्ट्रॉ में, पैकेजिंग में… यह हर जगह है!

But do you know, plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose?
लेकिन क्या आप जानते हैं, प्लास्टिक को सड़ने-गलने में सैकड़ों साल लगते हैं?

It pollutes our oceans, harms animals, and even enters our food!
यह हमारे समुद्रों को प्रदूषित करता है, जानवरों को नुकसान पहुँचाता है, और तो और हमारे खाने में भी पहुँच जाता है!

Birds and fish swallow plastic thinking it’s food and die a slow death.
पक्षी और मछलियाँ प्लास्टिक को खाना समझकर निगल लेती हैं, और धीरे-धीरे मर जाती हैं।

We need to take responsibility.
हमें जिम्मेदारी लेनी होगी।

Say NO to single-use plastic.
सिंगल यूज़ प्लास्टिक को ना कहें।

Start using cloth bags, steel bottles, and eco-friendly alternatives.
कपड़े की थैलियाँ, स्टील की बोतलें और पर्यावरण के अनुकूल चीज़ों का उपयोग शुरू करें।

Remember — small steps lead to big change.
याद रखिए — छोटे-छोटे कदम ही बड़ा बदलाव लाते हैं।

Let’s take a pledge —
आइए एक संकल्प लें —

We will say NO to plastic and YES to a cleaner, greener Earth!
हम प्लास्टिक को ना और एक स्वच्छ, हरा-भरा पृथ्वी को हाँ कहेंगे!

धन्यवाद!

Topic 13 - Importance of Voting – मतदान का महत्व

“Importance of Voting – मतदान का महत्व”

Good morning everyone!
सुप्रभात सभी को!

Today, I’m going to speak on a topic that builds the foundation of any democracy — Voting.
आज मैं एक ऐसे विषय पर बोलने जा रहा/रही हूँ जो किसी भी लोकतंत्र की नींव है — मतदान।

Voting is not just a right — it is a responsibility.
मतदान केवल एक अधिकार नहीं है — यह एक जिम्मेदारी भी है।

Every vote matters.
हर वोट मायने रखता है।

You may think, “What difference will my one vote make?”
आप सोच सकते हैं, “मेरे एक वोट से क्या फर्क पड़ेगा?”

But remember — one drop fills the ocean.
लेकिन याद रखें — समुद्र भी बूंद-बूंद से भरता है।

When we vote, we choose our leaders, our future, and our nation’s path.
जब हम मतदान करते हैं, तो हम अपने नेता, अपना भविष्य और अपने देश की दिशा चुनते हैं।

If we don’t vote, we lose the right to complain.
अगर हम वोट नहीं करते, तो हम शिकायत करने का अधिकार भी खो देते हैं।

Voting gives us the power to bring change, development, and justice.
मतदान हमें परिवर्तन, विकास और न्याय लाने की शक्ति देता है।

Students, we may not be eligible to vote yet, but we can inspire others — our parents, family, and society.
छात्रों, हो सकता है कि हम अभी वोट करने के योग्य न हों, लेकिन हम दूसरों को प्रेरित कर सकते हैं — अपने माता-पिता, परिवार और समाज को।

Let’s be responsible citizens. Let’s never waste our vote.
आइए हम जिम्मेदार नागरिक बनें। अपने वोट को कभी बर्बाद न करें।

One vote can make a leader. One vote can shape a nation.
एक वोट नेता बना सकता है। एक वोट देश की दिशा तय कर सकता है।

So remember —
इसलिए याद रखें —

Vote is your voice. Use it wisely.
वोट आपकी आवाज़ है। इसका समझदारी से उपयोग करें।

Thank you!
धन्यवाद! 🙏

Topic 14 - Kindness Is Never Wasted – दयालुता कभी व्यर्थ नहीं जाती

Kindness Is Never Wasted – दयालुता कभी व्यर्थ नहीं जाती

Good morning everyone! / सभी को नमस्कार।
Today, I want to speak on a very simple but powerful thought –
Kindness is never wasted – दयालुता कभी व्यर्थ नहीं जाती।

Kindness doesn’t need money or a big effort.
दयालु बनने के लिए न तो पैसे की जरूरत होती है, न ही बड़े प्रयास की।
एक मुस्कान, एक सहारा, या एक अच्छे शब्द – ये छोटी-छोटी चीज़ें किसी की ज़िंदगी में बड़ा फर्क ला सकती हैं।

We often think, “Will my small act of kindness even matter?”
हम सोचते हैं – क्या मेरी थोड़ी सी मदद किसी काम की है?

But the truth is — it always matters.
लेकिन सच्चाई यह है कि यह हमेशा मायने रखती है।
Every drop of kindness adds to the ocean of goodness.
दयालुता की हर बूँद अच्छाई के समुद्र में मिल जाती है।

एक बार एक बच्चा समुद्र किनारे मछलियों को वापस पानी में डाल रहा था।
किसी ने कहा, “इतनी सारी मछलियाँ हैं, तुम्हारी मदद से क्या होगा?”
बच्चा मुस्कराया और कहा – “कम से कम इस एक मछली के लिए फर्क पड़ा।”

That’s what kindness does.
यही दयालुता की ताकत है।
It may not change the whole world, but it can change someone’s world.
यह पूरी दुनिया नहीं बदलती, लेकिन किसी एक की दुनिया ज़रूर बदल सकती है।

In a world full of noise and competition, kindness makes you stand out.
इस दौड़ती-भागती दुनिया में दयालुता ही आपको अलग बनाती है।

When you help someone — without expecting anything in return —
जब आप किसी की मदद करते हैं, बिना किसी उम्मीद के —
you keep humanity alive — not just for them, but for yourself too.
तो आप न केवल दूसरों के लिए, बल्कि खुद के लिए भी इंसानियत को ज़िंदा रखते हैं।

So friends, be kind.
दूसरों से भी, और खुद से भी।
Because kindness not only helps others, it makes us better too.
क्योंकि दया सिर्फ दूसरों को नहीं, हमें भी बेहतर बनाती है।

Thank you. / धन्यवाद।

Topic 15 - Discipline Builds the Nation – अनुशासन देश का निर्माण करता है

Good morning everyone! / सभी को सुप्रभात।

Today, I want to share my thoughts on a very powerful topic:
Discipline builds the nation – अनुशासन देश का निर्माण करता है।

What is discipline?
अनुशासन क्या है?
It means doing the right thing, at the right time — even when you don’t feel like it.
सही समय पर, सही काम करना — चाहे मन हो या न हो, यही अनुशासन है।

Think about it — a student without discipline may not succeed,
एक विद्यार्थी अगर अनुशासनहीन हो, तो वह शायद कभी सफलता न पाए।
And a citizen without discipline can harm the society.
एक नागरिक अगर अनुशासनहीन हो, तो देश के विकास में रुकावट बन सकता है।

Look at countries like Japan and Germany.
जापान और जर्मनी जैसे देश सिर्फ तकनीक की वजह से नहीं, बल्कि वहां के नागरिकों के अनुशासन के कारण विकसित हैं।

From soldiers guarding our borders…
सेना के जवान जो सरहद पर तैनात हैं…
To students studying for their future…
छात्र जो अपने भविष्य की तैयारी कर रहे हैं…
Discipline is the common thread that builds a strong and proud nation.
अनुशासन ही वह डोर है जो एक सशक्त और गौरवशाली देश का निर्माण करती है।

A nation doesn’t grow just with tall buildings or fast trains.
देश ऊँची इमारतों और तेज़ ट्रेनों से नहीं बनता।
It grows when citizens value time, follow rules, and fulfill responsibilities.
देश तब आगे बढ़ता है जब उसके नागरिक समय, नियम और जिम्मेदारी का सम्मान करते हैं।

So let us remember:
Freedom without discipline is dangerous.
आज़ादी अगर अनुशासन के बिना हो, तो वह अराजकता बन जाती है।

Let’s become responsible and disciplined citizens.
आइए हम जिम्मेदार और अनुशासित नागरिक बनें।
Because when we build ourselves, we build the nation.
जब हम खुद को बनाते हैं, तभी हम देश को भी बनाते हैं।

Topic 16 - If Animals Could Talk – अगर जानवर बात कर सकते

If Animals Could Talk – अगर जानवर बात कर सकते

Good morning everyone / सभी को नमस्कार।

Have you ever wondered what life would be like if animals could talk?
क्या आपने कभी सोचा है कि जीवन कैसा होता अगर जानवर बात कर सकते?

Imagine a dog telling you how loyal he feels…
एक कुत्ता आपको यह बता रहा हो कि वो आपके लिए कितना वफादार है…

Or a bird describing the beauty of the sky…
या एक पक्षी आपको आसमान की खूबसूरती के बारे में बता रहा हो…

If animals could talk, I believe they would teach us compassion.
अगर जानवर बोल सकते, तो शायद हमें दया और सहानुभूति का असली मतलब समझाते।

The cow might say, “Please don’t hurt me, I give you milk.”
गाय कह सकती है, “मुझे मत सताओ, मैं तुम्हें दूध देती हूँ।”

The trees might whisper, “Protect us, we give you life.”
पेड़ फुसफुसाकर कहते, “हमें बचाओ, हम तुम्हें जीवन देते हैं।”

And the tiger, strong and silent, might say,
“I don’t want to be hunted, I just want to live free.”
और बाघ, जो शांत और शक्तिशाली है, कहता –
“मैं शिकार नहीं बनना चाहता, बस आज़ादी से जीना चाहता हूँ।”

If animals had voices, maybe we would become more responsible.
शायद अगर जानवरों की आवाज़ होती, तो हम इंसान और भी ज़िम्मेदार बन जाते।

We’d think twice before polluting rivers or cutting down forests.
हम नदियों को गंदा करने से पहले या जंगल काटने से पहले दो बार सोचते।

Animals may not speak our language,
but they express their emotions through actions, eyes, and cries.
जानवर हमारी भाषा नहीं बोल सकते,
लेकिन वो अपने भावनाएं अपनी आंखों, आवाज़ों और व्यवहार से ज़रूर दिखाते हैं।

Let us not wait for animals to speak.
Let us understand their silence.
हमें यह नहीं सोचना चाहिए कि जानवर बोलें,
हमें उनकी चुप्पी को समझना सीखना चाहिए।

Because kindness to animals is not just love —
it’s humanity.
क्योंकि जानवरों के प्रति दया सिर्फ प्रेम नहीं,
बल्कि इंसानियत है।

Thank you! Jai Hind!
धन्यवाद! जय हिंद!

Topic 17 - If I Had a Superpower – अगर मेरे पास कोई जादुई शक्ति होती

If I Had a Superpower – अगर मेरे पास कोई जादुई शक्ति होती
Good morning everyone / सभी को मेरा नमस्कार।

If I had a superpower, I wouldn’t use it just to fly or become invisible.
अगर मेरे पास कोई जादुई शक्ति होती, तो मैं उसे सिर्फ उड़ने या अदृश्य होने के लिए इस्तेमाल नहीं करता।

I would choose the power to heal people and remove their pain.
मैं ऐसी शक्ति चाहता जो लोगों का दुःख दूर कर सके, उन्हें ठीक कर सके।

Imagine a world where no one is sick, no one is sad.
सोचिए एक ऐसी दुनिया जहाँ कोई बीमार न हो, कोई दुखी न हो।

When I see poor people on the road, I wish I could give them shelter, food, and hope with a single touch.
जब मैं सड़क पर गरीब लोगों को देखता हूँ, तो मैं चाहता हूँ कि मैं एक स्पर्श से उन्हें खाना, घर और आशा दे सकूँ।

If I had a superpower, I would make sure every child goes to school, not to work.
अगर मेरे पास शक्ति होती, तो मैं हर बच्चे को स्कूल भेजता, काम पर नहीं।

I would erase hatred from hearts and fill them with love.
मैं लोगों के दिलों से नफरत मिटा देता और वहाँ प्रेम भर देता।

And yes, I would protect nature and animals.
और हाँ, मैं प्रकृति और जानवरों की रक्षा करता।

No more cutting trees, no more plastic pollution.
ना पेड़ कटते, ना नदियाँ गंदी होतीं।

But you know what?
We don’t need a magical superpower to make a difference.
पर क्या आप जानते हैं?
हमें कुछ बदलने के लिए जादूई शक्ति की ज़रूरत नहीं है।

Kindness, honesty, and courage — these are real superpowers within all of us.
दयालुता, ईमानदारी और साहस — ये असली शक्तियाँ हैं जो हम सब के अंदर होती हैं।

So let’s use the power we already have — to make the world a better place.
तो चलिए अपनी असली शक्तियों का इस्तेमाल करें — और इस दुनिया को बेहतर बनाएं।

The World in 2050 – 2050 में दुनिया कैसी होगी
Good morning everyone / सभी को मेरा नमस्कार।

Have you ever imagined what the world will look like in 2050?
क्या आपने कभी सोचा है कि 2050 में दुनिया कैसी होगी?

Technology will be everywhere — from self-driving cars to robots teaching in classrooms.
तकनीक हर जगह होगी — खुद चलने वाली कारों से लेकर रोबोट जो स्कूलों में पढ़ाएंगे।

We may see flying taxis, smart homes, and virtual reality cities.
हम शायद उड़ने वाली टैक्सी, स्मार्ट घर और वर्चुअल रियलिटी शहर देखेंगे।

But with growth comes responsibility.
पर विकास के साथ जिम्मेदारी भी आती है।

Climate change will still be a big challenge.
जलवायु परिवर्तन तब भी एक बड़ी चुनौती होगा।

If we don’t take care of our Earth today, we might face floods, droughts, and polluted air tomorrow.
अगर हमने आज पृथ्वी का ध्यान नहीं रखा, तो कल बाढ़, सूखा और प्रदूषित हवा का सामना करना पड़ेगा।

In 2050, the population will be more, and resources may be fewer.
2050 में जनसंख्या ज़्यादा होगी और संसाधन शायद कम।

So, we must learn to use water, electricity, and food wisely.
इसलिए हमें पानी, बिजली और खाने का सही उपयोग करना सीखना होगा।

Education will be more digital, but values must remain human.
शिक्षा डिजिटल हो जाएगी, पर मूल्य मानवीय ही रहना चाहिए।

Robots can do work, but they cannot replace kindness, emotions, and ethics.
रोबोट काम कर सकते हैं, लेकिन दयालुता, भावनाओं और नैतिकता को नहीं समझ सकते।

The world in 2050 will depend on us — the youth of today.
2050 की दुनिया हम पर निर्भर करेगी — यानी आज के युवाओं पर।

If we prepare ourselves with skills, empathy, and responsibility, the future will be bright.
अगर हम खुद को कौशल, संवेदना और जिम्मेदारी से तैयार करें, तो भविष्य उज्जवल होगा।

Let’s dream big — and work hard to build a better 2050.
आइए बड़े सपने देखें — और बेहतर 2050 बनाने के लिए कड़ी मेहनत करें।

If I Were Invisible for a Day – अगर मैं एक दिन के लिए अदृश्य हो जाऊँ
Good morning everyone / सभी को सुप्रभात!

Have you ever wondered, what would you do if you became invisible for a day?
क्या आपने कभी सोचा है कि अगर आप एक दिन के लिए अदृश्य हो जाएँ, तो आप क्या करेंगे?

If I were invisible for a day, I would first go around and explore places without being seen.
अगर मैं एक दिन के लिए अदृश्य हो जाऊँ, तो सबसे पहले मैं बिना किसी को दिखे अलग-अलग जगहों की सैर करूंगा।

I could visit a space station, enter a movie set, or even walk into a cricket team’s dressing room!
मैं अंतरिक्ष केंद्र जा सकता हूँ, किसी फिल्म के सेट पर जा सकता हूँ या क्रिकेट टीम के ड्रेसिंग रूम में झाँक सकता हूँ!

But with great power comes great responsibility.
पर बड़ी शक्ति के साथ बड़ी जिम्मेदारी भी आती है।

Instead of just having fun, I would try to help others.
मज़ा करने के साथ-साथ, मैं दूसरों की मदद करने की भी कोशिश करूंगा।

Imagine being invisible and stopping a theft or catching someone cheating in exams.
सोचिए, अगर आप अदृश्य होकर चोरी रोक सकें या किसी को परीक्षा में धोखा करते हुए पकड़ सकें तो?

I could visit hospitals and secretly leave gifts for poor patients.
मैं अस्पतालों में जाकर ग़रीब मरीज़ों के लिए चुपचाप उपहार छोड़ सकता हूँ।

I could enter a classroom and listen to every teacher without being noticed — no attendance needed!
मैं कक्षा में बिना किसी को दिखे हर शिक्षक की बातें सुन सकता हूँ — कोई उपस्थिति भी नहीं चाहिए!

But I also know that being invisible can be dangerous if misused.
पर मैं यह भी जानता हूँ कि अगर इसका गलत इस्तेमाल हो, तो यह खतरनाक भी हो सकता है।

So, I would use my invisibility not just for fun, but to do something good, secret, and meaningful.
इसलिए मैं अपनी अदृश्यता का उपयोग सिर्फ मज़े के लिए नहीं, बल्कि कुछ अच्छा, गुप्त और सार्थक करने के लिए करूंगा।

Because even when no one sees you, your actions speak loudest.
क्योंकि जब कोई आपको नहीं देखता, तब भी आपके कर्म सबसे ज़्यादा बोलते हैं।

Thank you and have a magical day! / धन्यवाद और आपका दिन जादुई हो!

Good morning everyone! / सभी को नमस्कार!

Have you ever imagined… what if you could meet and talk to your future self?
क्या आपने कभी सोचा है… अगर आप भविष्य के अपने आप से मिल सकें और बात कर सकें तो क्या होगा?

If I could talk to my future self, I would first ask:
“Are you happy? Did we become the person we always wanted to be?”
अगर मैं भविष्य के अपने आप से बात कर सकूं, तो मैं सबसे पहले पूछूंगा –
“क्या आप खुश हैं? क्या हम वही इंसान बन पाए जो हम बनना चाहते थे?”

I would want to know if the decisions I make today will shape a better tomorrow.
मैं यह जानना चाहूंगा कि आज मैं जो फैसले ले रहा हूँ, क्या वे मुझे एक बेहतर कल की ओर ले जा रहे हैं?

I’d ask,
“Did we stay true to our values, our dreams, and our purpose?”
मैं पूछूंगा,
“क्या हमने अपने मूल्यों, अपने सपनों और अपने मकसद के साथ ईमानदारी रखी?”

But I wouldn’t just ask questions.
I’d also want my future self to give me advice —
“Be patient. Don’t give up. Trust yourself even when things get hard.”
पर मैं केवल सवाल नहीं करूंगा।
मैं चाहूंगा कि मेरा भविष्य का स्वरूप मुझे सलाह दे —
“धैर्य रखो। हार मत मानो। जब हालात मुश्किल हों, तब भी खुद पर भरोसा रखो।”

Talking to my future self would be like seeing a reflection of my hopes, my struggles, and my growth.
भविष्य के अपने आप से बात करना मेरे सपनों, संघर्षों और विकास का प्रतिबिंब देखने जैसा होगा।

And if I could hear just one thing, I’d like to hear:
“You made it, and I’m proud of you.”
और अगर मुझे केवल एक बात सुनने को मिले, तो वह होगी —
“तुम सफल हुए, और मुझे तुम पर गर्व है।”

Because that one sentence would give me the strength to keep moving forward today.
क्योंकि वह एक वाक्य मुझे आज आगे बढ़ने की पूरी ताकत देगा।

Thank you! / धन्यवाद!

Topic 21 - Confidence Is the Key to Success – आत्मविश्वास सफलता की कुंजी है

Confidence is the Key to Success
Good morning everyone! / सुप्रभात सभी को!

Today, I would like to speak on a very inspiring topic –
Confidence is the key to success.
आज मैं एक प्रेरणादायक विषय पर बोलना चाहता/चाहती हूँ –
आत्मविश्वास सफलता की कुंजी है।

Confidence means believing in yourself, even when no one else does.
आत्मविश्वास का मतलब है – खुद पर विश्वास रखना, चाहे कोई और आप पर विश्वास करे या नहीं।

It gives you the courage to take risks, face challenges, and grow through failure.
यह आपको जोखिम लेने, चुनौतियों का सामना करने और असफलता से सीखने का साहस देता है।

Whether you are a student, a speaker, an artist, or a leader – confidence helps you shine.

Many successful people were not the most talented, but they were the most confident.
कई सफल लोग सबसे प्रतिभाशाली नहीं थे, लेकिन उनमें सबसे ज्यादा आत्मविश्वास था।

Self-confidence starts with self-belief.
आत्मविश्वास की शुरुआत आत्म-विश्वास से होती है।

Believe that you can do it – and half the battle is already won.
यकीन रखो कि आप कर सकते हैं – और आधी जीत वहीं हो जाती है।

Of course, confidence doesn’t mean overconfidence.
बिलकुल, आत्मविश्वास का मतलब घमंड नहीं होता।

Stay humble, keep learning, and grow with positivity.
विनम्र रहिए, सीखते रहिए और सकारात्मकता के साथ आगे बढ़िए।

So friends, remember:
तो दोस्तों, याद रखिए:
With confidence in your heart and courage in your actions,
no dream is too big.
अगर दिल में आत्मविश्वास और कर्म में साहस हो, तो कोई भी सपना बड़ा नहीं होता।

Topic 24 - Success Comes from Hard Work – सफलता मेहनत से मिलती है

“Success Comes from Hard Work – सफलता मेहनत से मिलती है”
Good morning everyone! / सभी को नमस्कार!

We all want success — in school, in our career, in life.
But the truth is simple:
There is no shortcut to success. Hard work is the only way.
हम सभी जीवन में सफलता पाना चाहते हैं — पढ़ाई में, करियर में, हर क्षेत्र में।
लेकिन सच्चाई यह है कि —
सफलता का कोई शॉर्टकट नहीं होता। मेहनत ही उसका असली रास्ता है।

Look at great people like Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam or Sachin Tendulkar.
They were not born successful.
They worked hard, practiced every day, faced failure, but never gave up.
डॉ. ए.पी.जे. अब्दुल कलाम या सचिन तेंदुलकर को देखिए।
उन्हें सफलता जन्म से नहीं मिली।
उन्होंने हर दिन मेहनत की, अभ्यास किया, असफलताओं का सामना किया — लेकिन हार नहीं मानी।

Hard work builds discipline.
It gives us confidence, skills, and strength to face challenges.
मेहनत हमें अनुशासन सिखाती है।
यह हमें आत्मविश्वास, योग्यता और चुनौतियों से लड़ने की ताकत देती है।

Even a small ant can climb a wall — because it doesn’t stop trying.
That’s the power of effort!
एक छोटी चींटी भी दीवार चढ़ सकती है — क्योंकि वह प्रयास करना नहीं छोड़ती।
यही मेहनत की ताकत है।

Remember —
Dreams don’t work unless you do.
Your books, your goals, your future — they all need your hard work today.
याद रखिए —
सपने तभी पूरे होते हैं जब आप उनके लिए मेहनत करते हैं।
आपकी किताबें, आपके लक्ष्य, आपका भविष्य — सब आज की मेहनत पर निर्भर हैं।

So keep going. Keep growing.
Because success comes not to the lucky — but to the hardworking.
इसलिए मेहनत करते रहिए, आगे बढ़ते रहिए।
क्योंकि सफलता भाग्य से नहीं, मेहनत से मिलती है।

Thank you! / धन्यवाद!

Topic 25 - Mistakes Are Proof That You Are Trying – गलतियाँ इस बात का प्रमाण हैं कि आप प्रयास कर रहे हैं

“Mistakes Are Proof That You Are Trying – गलतियाँ इस बात का प्रमाण हैं कि आप प्रयास कर रहे हैं”
Good morning everyone! / सभी को नमस्कार!

We all make mistakes. And sometimes, we feel embarrassed or discouraged.
But remember — mistakes are not failures.
They are signs that we are learning, growing, and trying.
हम सभी गलतियाँ करते हैं, और कई बार हमें शर्मिंदगी भी होती है।
लेकिन याद रखिए — गलतियाँ असफलता नहीं हैं।
ये इस बात का प्रमाण हैं कि हम कुछ नया सीख रहे हैं, प्रयास कर रहे हैं।

Think of a baby learning to walk.
They fall many times before taking their first step.
But do we call them a failure? No! We cheer for them!
एक बच्चे को चलना सीखते हुए देखिए —
वो कई बार गिरता है लेकिन अंत में चलना सीखता है।
क्या हम उसे असफल कहते हैं? नहीं! हम उसकी तारीफ करते हैं।

Mistakes are stepping stones.
They teach us what not to do and guide us toward what we should do.
In fact, the most successful people in the world have made the biggest mistakes.
गलतियाँ सीढ़ियों की तरह होती हैं, जो हमें ऊपर चढ़ने में मदद करती हैं।
दुनिया के सबसे सफल लोगों ने सबसे बड़ी गलतियाँ की हैं —
लेकिन उन्होंने हार नहीं मानी।

Thomas Edison once said —
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
थॉमस एडिसन ने कहा था —
“मैं असफल नहीं हुआ, मैंने सिर्फ 10,000 तरीके ढूंढे जो काम नहीं करते।”

So, never fear making mistakes.
Just make sure to learn from them and keep moving forward.
इसलिए गलतियाँ करने से मत डरिए —
बस उनसे सीखिए और आगे बढ़ते रहिए।

Because every mistake you make is a step closer to success.
क्योंकि हर गलती आपको सफलता के और करीब लाती है।

Thank you! / धन्यवाद!

Topic - 1 The Clever Crow

Once upon a time, there was a crow who was very thirsty. He flew from one place to another in search of water, but he could not find even a single drop. He was tired and losing hope.

Suddenly, he saw a jug lying on the ground. Feeling hopeful, he quickly flew down and sat on its edge. But to his disappointment, the water inside was very low. He tried to reach it, but his beak could not touch the water. He was confused and didn’t know what to do.

Just when he was about to give up, he got an idea. He noticed some small stones nearby. He picked them up one by one and dropped them into the jug. Slowly, the water level began to rise. After a few more pebbles, the water came up to the brim. The crow happily drank the water and quenched his thirst. Feeling grateful, he thanked God and flew away.

Topic - 2 The Fox and The Crow

The Fox and The Crow

It was a scorching summer afternoon. A hungry fox wandered through the forest in search of food but found nothing. Weary and exhausted, he decided to rest under the cool shade of a large tree. As he tilted his head upward, his sharp eyes caught sight of a crow perched on a branch, holding a delicious piece of meat in its beak. The fox’s mouth watered at the sight. His cunning mind instantly hatched a plan to snatch the meat. He cleared his throat and said in a sweet voice, “Oh, magnificent and charming bird! People praise your enchanting voice. Would you bless me with a melody to soothe my weary soul?” The foolish crow, flattered by the fox’s words, swelled with pride. Wanting to showcase its singing talent, it opened its beak to caw—but alas! The piece of meat tumbled down. The sly fox swiftly grabbed the meat and devoured it in an instant. The poor crow realized its foolishness but it was too late. Moral: Beware of flatterers. (Never fall for false praise!)

Topic - 3 UNION IS STRENGTH

English Version:

Once upon a time, in a small village, lived a poor farmer with his four sons. Though they were strong, they were always fighting among themselves and never helped their father in the fields. The farmer, deeply saddened by their constant quarrels, tried several times to make them understand the value of unity, but all his efforts went in vain.

As time passed, the farmer grew old and fell seriously ill. Realizing that his end was near, he devised a plan to teach his sons an important lesson. He called them to his bedside and handed them a bundle of sticks. “Try to break this bundle,” he said.

One by one, the sons tried their best, but no one could break it. Then, the farmer untied the bundle and gave each son a single stick. This time, they easily snapped the sticks in half.

Looking at them, the wise father said, “My sons, just like these sticks, if you remain united, no one can harm you. But if you keep fighting and stand alone, you will be weak and easily defeated.”

The sons understood their father’s words. From that day onwards, they never fought and worked together as a team.

Moral:

“United we stand, divided we fall.”(Strength lies in unity.)

Hindi Version:

एकता में बल

एक गाँव में एक गरीब किसान रहता था। उसके चार बेटे थे, जो बहुत मजबूत तो थे, लेकिन हमेशा आपस में लड़ते-झगड़ते रहते थे। वे कभी भी अपने पिता की खेतों में मदद नहीं करते थे। किसान अपने बेटों की इस आदत से बहुत दुखी था। उसने कई बार उन्हें समझाने की कोशिश की कि एकता में कितना बल होता है, लेकिन उसका कोई असर नहीं हुआ।

समय बीतता गया और किसान वृद्ध हो गया। एक दिन वह गंभीर रूप से बीमार पड़ गया। उसे एहसास हुआ कि अब उसके जीवन का अंत निकट है। तब उसने अपने बेटों को एक महत्वपूर्ण पाठ सिखाने की योजना बनाई।

उसने अपने चारों बेटों को अपने पास बुलाया और लकड़ियों का एक गट्ठर उन्हें दिया। फिर वह बोला, “इसे तोड़कर दिखाओ।”

बारी-बारी से सभी बेटों ने अपनी पूरी ताकत लगा दी, लेकिन कोई भी उस गट्ठर को नहीं तोड़ सका।

फिर किसान ने वह गट्ठर खोला और हर बेटे को एक-एक लकड़ी दी। अब जब उन्होंने लकड़ियाँ अलग-अलग लीं, तो वे उन्हें आसानी से तोड़ पाए।

किसान मुस्कराया और बोला, “देखा बेटों, जब ये लकड़ियाँ एक साथ बंधी थीं, तब कोई भी उन्हें नहीं तोड़ सका। लेकिन जब वे अलग हो गईं, तो आसानी से टूट गईं। ठीक उसी तरह, अगर तुम सब एकजुट रहोगे, तो कोई तुम्हें हानि नहीं पहुँचा सकता। लेकिन अगर आपस में झगड़ते रहोगे और अलग-अलग रहोगे, तो दुनिया तुम्हें आसानी से हरा देगी।”

बेटों को अपने पिता की बात समझ आ गई। उस दिन के बाद उन्होंने कभी आपस में झगड़ा नहीं किया और हमेशा मिल-जुलकर एकता से रहे और काम किया।

शिक्षा:

“एकता में बल है। जब हम साथ होते हैं, तो कोई हमें नहीं हरा सकता।”

Topic - 4 A GREEDY DOG

English Version:

Once upon a time, there was a hungry dog wandering through the streets in search of food. He sniffed around, but luck was not on his side—there was nothing to eat. Exhausted and desperate, he finally reached a butcher’s shop, where he spotted a fresh, juicy piece of meat. Unable to resist, he swiftly grabbed it in his mouth and ran away.

Wanting to enjoy his meal in peace, the dog rushed toward the outskirts of the city. On his way, he had to cross a narrow wooden bridge over a flowing stream. As he walked across, he happened to look down into the water. To his surprise, he saw another dog staring back at him—a dog that also had a piece of meat!

Blinded by greed, he thought, “If I can snatch that piece too, I will have double the food!” Without thinking, he opened his mouth to bark. Splash! His own piece of meat slipped from his jaws and fell into the water. The greedy dog watched helplessly as the current carried his meal away.

Regret filled his heart, but it was too late. That night, he went to bed with an empty stomach, learning a hard lesson about greed.

Moral:

“Greed is a curse.”(Those who are too greedy end up losing everything.)

Hindi Version:

लालची कुत्ता

किसी गाँव में एक कुत्ता रहता था। एक दिन उसे बहुत ज़ोरों की भूख लगी। वह खाने की तलाश में इधर-उधर भटकने लगा, लेकिन उसे कुछ नहीं मिला। बहुत देर बाद, वह एक कसाई की दुकान पर पहुँचा, जहाँ उसकी नज़र एक ताज़े और रसदार मांस के टुकड़े पर पड़ी। बिना कोई देरी किए, उसने झटपट मांस उठाया और वहाँ से भाग निकला।
कुत्ता अकेले मज़े से खाना चाहता था, इसलिए वह शहर से बाहर एक सुनसान जगह की ओर दौड़ पड़ा। रास्ते में, उसे एक संकरी लकड़ी की पुलिया पार करनी पड़ी, जिसके नीचे एक नदी बह रही थी। जैसे ही वह पुल पार कर रहा था, उसकी नज़र पानी में पड़ी।
उसने देखा कि पानी में एक और कुत्ता है, जिसके मुँह में भी एक स्वादिष्ट मांस का टुकड़ा है। लालची कुत्ते ने सोचा, “अगर मैं इसका मांस भी ले लूँ, तो मेरा खाना दुगुना हो जाएगा!”
बेवकूफी में, उसने दूसरे कुत्ते को डराने के लिए ज़ोर से भौंकने की कोशिश की। लेकिन जैसे ही उसने मुँह खोला, चपाक! उसका अपना मांस पानी में गिर गया। उसने अफसोस से देखा कि उसका खाना तेज़ बहाव के साथ बहता चला गया।
अब कुछ नहीं हो सकता था। उस रात वह भूखा ही सो गया और उसे समझ आ गया कि लालच का नतीजा हमेशा बुरा ही होता है।

शिक्षा:

“लालच बुरी बला है।”
(जो ज़्यादा चाहता है, वह सब कुछ खो देता है।)

Topic - 5 BAD COMPANY

English Version:

Once upon a time, a wealthy man lived in a town with his only son. The boy was intelligent, respectful, and obedient. He excelled in his studies and always topped his class. His father was very proud of him.

However, as time passed, the boy fell into bad company. He started neglecting his studies, and soon, his grades dropped. When the school sent a poor progress report, his father was deeply saddened. Despite repeated advice to leave his bad friends, the boy paid no heed.

One day, the father came up with a clever plan. He went to the market and bought a basket of fresh, juicy apples. Along with them, he also bought one rotten apple. At home, he asked his son to place all the apples together in a basket.

The next day, when the father asked for the apples, the boy was shocked! All the fresh apples had turned rotten. He rushed to his father and said, “Father, all the good apples are spoiled!” The father smiled and said, “Just like this rotten apple ruined the fresh ones, bad friends will ruin your life. If you stay with them, you will also suffer.”

The boy understood the lesson. He immediately left his bad friends and focused on his studies again. Soon, he regained his top position in class, and his father was overjoyed.

Moral:

👉“Better to be alone than in bad company.”(It’s wiser to walk alone than to be with negative people.)

बुरी संगति

Hindi Version:
किसी नगर में एक अमीर व्यक्ति अपने इकलौते पुत्र के साथ रहता था। लड़का मेहनती, समझदार और आज्ञाकारी था। वह पढ़ाई में बहुत अच्छा था और हमेशा कक्षा में प्रथम आता था। उसके पिता उस पर गर्व महसूस करते थे।

लेकिन समय के साथ, वह गलत संगति में पड़ गया। धीरे-धीरे उसने पढ़ाई से ध्यान हटा लिया। उसका परीक्षा परिणाम खराब आने लगा। जब उसके पिता को स्कूल से उसकी खराब रिपोर्ट मिली, तो वे बहुत दुखी हुए। उन्होंने उसे कई बार बुरी संगति छोड़ने की सलाह दी, लेकिन लड़के ने कोई ध्यान नहीं दिया।

एक दिन, पिता ने उसे सबक सिखाने का एक उपाय सोचा। वे बाजार गए और कुछ ताजे, लाल-लाल सेब खरीदे। साथ ही, उन्होंने एक सड़ा हुआ सेब भी लिया। घर आकर उन्होंने बेटे से कहा कि सभी सेब एक टोकरी में रख दो।

अगले दिन, पिता ने बेटे से टोकरी में सेब लाने को कहा। लड़का अचंभित रह गया! सारे अच्छे सेब भी सड़ चुके थे। वह भागते हुए पिता के पास आया और बोला, “पिताजी, सारे अच्छे सेब भी खराब हो गए!”

पिता मुस्कराए और बोले, “जैसे एक खराब सेब ने सभी अच्छे सेबों को सड़ा दिया, वैसे ही बुरी संगति तुम्हारी जिंदगी को भी बर्बाद कर सकती है। यदि तुम गलत लोगों के साथ रहोगे, तो तुम्हारा भविष्य भी अंधकारमय हो जाएगा।”

लड़के को अपनी गलती समझ में आ गई। उसने बुरी संगति को छोड़ दिया और फिर से पढ़ाई में मन लगाने लगा। जल्द ही वह दोबारा कक्षा में प्रथम स्थान प्राप्त करने लगा, जिससे उसके पिता बहुत खुश हुए।

शिक्षा:

👉 “अकेले रहना बुरी संगति से बेहतर है।” (गलत लोगों की संगति हमें नुकसान ही पहुंचाती है।)

Topic - 6 THE HIDDEN TREASURE

English Version:

Once upon a time, there was an old farmer who lived in a village. He had four sons who were extremely lazy. They never helped their father in the fields and wasted their time in useless gossip and idleness. This deeply pained the farmer. He often advised them to work hard, but they never listened.

One day, the farmer fell seriously ill. Realizing that his end was near, he wanted to teach his sons the importance of hard work before he passed away. He called them to his bedside and said, “My dear sons, many years ago, my father gave me a box full of gold coins. To keep it safe from robbers, I buried it in the fields. After my death, dig the field carefully, find the treasure, and live a prosperous life.”

After a few days, the farmer passed away. The sons, excited to find the hidden treasure, took spades and pickaxes and started digging the field. They dug every inch of the land but found nothing. Disappointed and exhausted, they sat under a tree.

Just then, an old passerby saw them and said, “Since you have already tilled the land, why not sow some seeds?” The sons followed his advice and sowed wheat. That year, they harvested a golden crop and earned a huge profit.

At that moment, they realized the true meaning of their father’s words. The real treasure was not gold but hard work and dedication. They learned their lesson and never remained lazy again.

Moral:

👉“Hard work is the real treasure.”(Success comes to those who work hard.)

👉“No pains, no gains.”(Without effort, there is no reward.)

छुपा हुआ ख़ज़ाना

Hindi Version:
बहुत समय पहले, एक बूढ़ा किसान था जो गाँव में रहता था। उसके चार बेटे थे, लेकिन वे बहुत आलसी थे। वे कभी भी अपने पिता की खेती में मदद नहीं करते थे। सारा दिन इधर-उधर घूमते और व्यर्थ की बातें करते। यह देखकर किसान बहुत दुखी रहता था। उसने कई बार उन्हें मेहनत का महत्व समझाया, लेकिन वे कभी नहीं माने।
एक दिन, किसान बहुत गंभीर रूप से बीमार पड़ गया। उसे एहसास हुआ कि अब उसके जीवन के अंतिम दिन हैं। वह चाहता था कि उसके बेटे मेहनत का मूल्य समझें। उसने अपने बेटों को बुलाया और कहा, “प्यारे बेटों, बहुत साल पहले, मेरे पिता ने मुझे सोने के सिक्कों से भरा एक बक्सा दिया था। लुटेरों से बचाने के लिए, मैंने उसे खेत में गाड़ दिया था। मेरी मृत्यु के बाद, तुम इसे खोद कर निकाल लेना और सुखी जीवन बिताना।”
कुछ दिनों बाद, किसान का स्वर्गवास हो गया। बेटों को ख़ज़ाना पाने की बेचैनी हुई। वे फावड़े और कुदाल लेकर खेत में पहुंचे और पूरा खेत खोद डाला। लेकिन उन्हें कुछ भी नहीं मिला।
थके हुए और निराश होकर वे बैठ गए। तभी एक बूढ़ा राहगीर वहाँ से गुज़रा। उसने पूछा, “अब जब तुमने ज़मीन खोद ही डाली है, तो क्यों न इसमें बीज बो दो?”
बेटों ने उसकी बात मानी और खेत में गेहूं बो दिया। कुछ महीनों बाद, उनकी फसल सुनहरी हो गई और उन्हें बहुत लाभ हुआ।
तभी उन्हें अपने पिता की बात का सही अर्थ समझ में आया। असल ख़ज़ाना सोने के सिक्के नहीं, बल्कि मेहनत थी। उन्होंने आलस्य छोड़ दिया और मेहनती बन गए।

शिक्षा:

👉 “मेहनत ही असली ख़ज़ाना है।” (जो मेहनत करता है, वही सफल होता है।)
👉 “बिना मेहनत के कुछ नहीं मिलता।” (परिश्रम का फल मीठा होता है।)
