Question

Essay on my aim in life in 500 words

Answer 1

Some dream to become educationists, while for others politics holds great attraction. A few are lured to pursue their career in anti-social activates. There are people who have a craze to become poets, writers and novelists. To say, different people ,  different choices.

I am not a highly ambitious man. I am modest by nature. I do not want to be a multi-millionaire. The profession of teaching has been very attractive to me. This has been my childhood dream. The sole aim of my life is to serve the society to become a good citizen. To me teaching appears to be the best way to serve the society.

I belong to the lower middle class of society. Naturally, I have to face several difficulties in my life. The difficulties encountered during the journey of my life made me realize that lack of education is the biggest problem to which  I will devote my life to spread literacy to every nook and corner of society so as to remove the darkness of illiteracy. It is a shame that one- fourth of our population still do not know how to read and write even after over six decades of independence. In terms of women education, the picture is all the more gloomy. Unless we are educated we  cannot make all around progress.

I would be particularly sensitive to the needs of the weaker section of society. I would work hard to bring change in  their lives. When this section of society is educated, we will have a totally different society. There will be no  superstitions when they will be educated. I will always be  available to attend their queries whatever arise. I will  arrange extra classes for those who find it difficult to keep pace with the regular class.

I am fully aware that I’ll have to face lots to face lots of hardships. A teacher’s life is hard. He does not command the respect he deserves. This profession is looked down upon as of a lowly status. A teacher’s life is full of drudgery. I will not be concerned for the earnings. I fill try my best to make the students good citizens. I will help them in broadening their outlook. I’ll groom their personality and shape their characters. I’ll groom their personality and shape their characters. I’ll try to inculcate in them good moral values. So that India have good citizens to take it on the path of progress and prosperity in which everyone has a dignified life full of equality of opportunities. According to great educationist and our former president Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, “Teachers are the custodians of the highest values.”  

Answer 2

Life without aim is useless, aimless and pointless. Life is a great blessing of God. It should be spent on a purpose, with certain aim. Otherwise, there will be no difference between the life of man and that of animals.


          Life is olden times was simple. Man had to hunt for food, nothing more. But, now is a different time. We have new challenges to meet. We have new problems to solve. So, one should be ready for all these things. One can face life and its problems with a plan. Without a plan, life would be difficult to lead.


          I want to become a teacher. The question is why so. There are many other professions. One can be a doctor, earning a lot of rupees daily. One can be an engineer, getting thousands of rupees as salary. One can be a shop-keeper earning lots of profits. One can also be a trader, selling things and earning lots of profits. Why then a teacher?

            

          I want to become a teacher because I love this profession. Not only that I love it, but also for its greatness. I know teachers in our country are low-paid. I also know that people don’t think this profession as a great one. They think that teachers are merely teachers, with no high status in life.


          I admit, teachers are not given proper status in our society. But, all the same, I like this profession. I think teaching is the highest job to do. It is because teachers bring light of knowledge in the lives of the people. They take them out of ignorance. They teach them good values.


          This is what I think, I believe. In my opinion, a poor literate man is better than an illiterate rich man. So, that is why I want to be a teacher. This is my aim in life.
