According to the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna is both your tutor and buddy. The phrase goes: "जिसने मन को जीत लिया उसने पहले से ही परमात्मा को प्राप्त कर लिया है।" It really stimulates him and serves as his learning motto.

Dr. Verma urges young people to assess their own strengths and limitations. He proposes that you work based on your hobbies and passions.

He urges journalism students to be aware of their own abilities and interests. 'Counsel yourself first, because you are the counsellor of your soul,' he suggests. He advises staying up to date on current events, practicing writing, and mastering new technical skills such as photo editing and creative software. These skills can be learned through digital platforms like YouTube, as technical expertise is essential in today's world across all industries.

Furthermore, Dr. Amit believes it is essential for journalists to explore various fields and follow their passions. If you're a good speaker, consider FM or TV; if you have creative ideas, pursue branding or advertising; if you enjoy networking and engaging with people, opt for Public Relations (PR); and if you possess leadership skills, teach communication or tourism.
