Here are a few life skills which they never taught us in Schools or Colleges & left most of us woefully unequipped. But the funny part is whole world expect that as a grown up you must have these perfectly up to the mark. Your much desired success in life depends not on degrees that you receive but on these priceless life skills.
Life skills (skills you need to make the most out of life) aren’t as obvious as they may seem. These are more than what you obviously know or have been told, like you should have more money coming in than going out & that you shouldn’t look untidy when going for an important meeting. But is that all? No, this is not enough.
I have tried to list some of these much sought skills that you need to know & acquire to live a joyful life & attain desired success.
