Life skills help an individual function well in different ways. They aid in the smooth adjustment in social situations, and regulation of self and emotions. Life skills are techniques or skills picked up that help in handling interpersonal relationships in a healthy manner. This may be through practicing on maintaining appropriate body language, and fearlessly facing crowds and speaking, which will assist us while dealing with life’s issues and incidents. As a result, we can develop the art of communicating effectively and with ease.
Life skills differ from soft skills and hard skills (academic and technical knowledge) and have often been neglected and taken over by the other two. Soft skills are personality traits and abilities that are closely looked into for jobs’ sake. But life skills are an extension of the same and takes the individual far beyond just a successful and satisfying career.
