Sir started the class by explaining the slides on self evaluation. It was mainly on skill development of an individual, the key terms were,

•Study Skills

•Soft Skills

•Transferable Skills

•Profile

•Portfolio

•Self Evaluation

We were given an exercise to write up about our skills on any of the activity we did in our life and how we developed our skills in achieving higher standards during the process. Thus i would like to share with everyone how I managed to achieve the ultimate goal in my life during the school sports carrier.

Rowing one of the world renowned sports, it originated from Great Britain and the oldest regatta in the world is the Oxford-Cambridge race. I started of my rowing carrier at the age of 15, before that I engaged almost in 6 sports but I never succeeded in those, thus I chose rowing as my last resort and started it off with the soul purpose of achieving high level of sportsmanship in my school carrier. After sometime I realized that my fitness levels are not enough to compete with the ongoing performance levels.
Hence I had this 5 year long term plan of achieving the best school boy sculler (single boat event). With that goal I ended up being the skipper for 2010/2011 year. I had start getting used to so many leadership qualities, how to deal with problems spontaneously, dealing with various types off people from different kinds of backgrounds etc.
In 2011 I started training more and more in fitness and technique aspects, experimented various new things, and ultimately I'm proud to say that I'm the best school boy sculler for the year of 2011.
Currently my goal is to achieve in the open categories and perform in the up coming National regatta.
