@thebetterindia You have a point Divya. Now gradually schools are taking up some of these soft skills topics to make students more self-aware. These are possibly more important in life as we move ahead into practical aspects of life and living.
“IIT Delhi to IIM Bangalore to IAS… but no one taught me how to handle loneliness.”
That one line by IAS officer Divya Mittal sparked a much-needed conversation about what education leaves out.
Despite studying at India’s top institutions and building an accomplished career in the civil services, she reflected on lessons schools and colleges rarely teach—how to handle failure, heartbreak, burnout, finances, communication, emotional regulation and loneliness.
Now, after resigning from the IAS, her reflections feel even more significant.
Because success isn’t just about ranks, degrees or titles. It’s also about knowing yourself, navigating life’s difficult moments and finding peace beyond achievements.
Does our education system prepare us for real life?

A significant milestone for sports infrastructure at Delhi Naval Station! The newly renovated Squash Courts at Naval Officers Mess Varuna were inaugurated on 17 June by RAdm Sandeep Mehta, DG Varsha, an ace squash player himself.
Renovated by MES, the two courts have been built to World Squash Federation standards in line with Indian Navy’s continued commitment to fitness and well-being of its personnel and families. The inauguration was followed by an exciting Inaugural Match.
