WE ARE WHAT WE MAKE OF OURSELVES
(Against The Motion)
Good morning all of you, today I Ashish Kumar of class XII of Kendriya Vidyalaya,Pitampura is standing before you to express my views against the motion.
It was quite astonishing to hear my worthy and wise opponents that they are what they make themselves. It makes me doubtful that whether they have ever heard about Great Maratha warrior Shivaji!!
As one browse through the life-history of Shivaji then one thing becomes quite clear that whatever level Shivaji achieved wasn’t only due to his but the role of his mother, bringing him up was the real difference. We cannot neglect role of a mother like that of Shivaji’s.
Let us talk about Sam Manekshaw, who was one of the top army officials who received the badge of Field Marshal. Do you know that during his student life, he had a desire to become a medical officer but his family changed his way. They didn’t allow him to go to a medical college and so he joined the army as a mark of protest.
So, desire is not something fundamental for a person, it is a gradual outcome of the effects which one receive from his family, his society and of course, the nation. But in case of Sam Manekshaw, one another important aspect has also come out that is conscience, which decided his move towards the army.
So, if we sum up, in nutshell we can say that it is not only one’s desire which matters but other factors are equally responsible. Thank you.

The Great Alexander alone could not have won the whole world, it was his bold army behind him that
Made his dream come true!!
Good morning everybody. Today I Anupama wants to express my views against the motion-“We are what we make ourselves”.
Sorry, but I disagree with my opponent’s view that strong will power and determination “Alone” can make a man successful. I know you have given a lot of examples of the persons who became successful because of their own capabilities regardless of their background. But just wait for a while and think about their percentage in the world, that is why, we can’t neglect other aspects of life. Like family, their constant support and inspiration, then background, economic status, everything matters.
It matters a lot how the behavior of our parents with us is? What are the morals they taught us? How is the atmosphere at home? A healthy environment builds a strong character and a positive attitude in a person that helps him a lot during the ups and downs in his life. Friends and teachers too have an important role in one’s life. Teacher’s regular guidelines and advices are very helpful. And yes, we all must have heard the saying that “One is known by the company one keeps”. A good company can take us to great heights but at the same time a bad company us as well as our career. Our friends’ help and their motivation can’t be neglected.
Every child is born with some unique talents, the only thing is to search and bring it out which is impossible without the help of parents or teachers or friends. The society in which we are dwelling also have its influence on us. Surrounding is the main thing that plays a significant role in our successful life. A child is not born intelligent by birth; he observes the things and people around him and learns from them. If a proper environment is not provided, he can never achieve success, never!!
That is why, one of the key factors in success of a person is the background of his family. Background develops his interest towards that field. We can take examples of many famous personalities, as one of the most famous percussionist USTAD ZAKIR HUSSAIN, who developed his interest in playing tabla at a very tender age because his father was in same occupation.
Somehow luck also plays a role as many times, a person has all the qualities and skills but still due to lack of resources or opportunity, he is unable to achieve his destination and for provision of resources, our economic status is also a factor that affects.
At lat I would like to question my worthy opponents that if these things would not have mattered then why, why the parents would have been dying to send their children to good schools?? I hope answer to this question will explain you what I wanted to say. Thank you.

WE ARE WHAT WE MAKE OF OURSELVES
(FOR THE MOTION)
We all work with one infinite power. We all guide ourselves by exactly the same laws –“The natural laws of universe “.Wherever you are- India, USA, Australia, Japan or London, we are all working with one power , one law and that’s attraction!!
Everything that is coming into your life you are attracting into your life. And it’s attracted to you by virtue of the images you’re thinking. Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you. ”Every thought of yours is real thing- a force”. The simplest way to understand this is that if I think as a magnet, then I know that a magnet will attract to it.We humans are the most powerful magnet in this universe! We contain a magnetic power within ourselves that is more powerful than anything in this world, and this unfathomable magnetic power is emitted through your thoughts.
You are a human transmission tower and the most powerful tower in this universe. Your transmission creates your life and it creates the world. The frequency you transmit in the form of your thoughts reaches beyond cities, beyond countries, beyond the world. It reverberates through the entire universe.This is what actually happens in all aspects of life. It doesn’t matter at all whether you have all the resources at none of them. It is your thought that needs to be determined to achieve anything whether it is success, health or wealth.
But then the most obvious question my worthy opponents would ask is then why isn’t everybody living the life of their dreams? Here’s the problem, most people are thinking about what they don’t want, and they are wondering why it shows up over and over again.
Let me give you an example: Go to a gym, appoint the best trainer and then just watch him doing exercise and teaching you for some days or weeks. Now, observe the change in your health. What most of you could answer is there is no change, such an obvious question …why am I asking this question? Now I would like to ask my worthy opponents, besides having all the resources, why there is no improvement in health?
This is because, you are only watching him. Until you are yourself willing to improve your health, resources merely cannot do anything. It’s your will, your thoughts that would make any improvement in your health. Most of us have never allowed ourselves to want what we truly want, because we can’t see how it is going to manifest. If you do just a little research, it is going to become evident to you that anyone that ever accomplished anything, did not know how they were going to do it they only knew that they were going to do it.
At last I would like to say that, you are the only designers of your life. You are the author. You write the story. The pen is in your hands and outcome is whatever you choose.

A deep dive to seek the truth!
Who do you think is responsible for the building up of your personality?
Positions:
You yourself (5)
Your Parents (4)
Your Teachers (0)
Friend Circle (0)
Society (0)
- Your Parents
I believe that parents are responsible for the building up of our personality.Parents influence their child the most.They always show their ward the right path and suggest them right things to make them aware of the difference between the right and the wrong.

Parents are the persons who show the path of success ..!!

No doubt, I think I myself am responsible for building up my personality because I myself make all efforts to develop it and I trust myself a lot..
