How to Deal with Ragging ?

Although ragging is a punishable offense, we still see youngsters hanging themselves to the ceiling. A bully will always do what he is good at, but what is topping you from defending yourself? If not anything, you should atleast learn to defend yourself against any potential danger of any magnitude. The world will always suppress the weak, but you have the choice to be weak or well built.

One man with courage makes a majority. If you want to protect yourself you should first change the way you think. If you think you are too feeble you will always be dominated and bullied. You have to tell yourself that there is nothing more important then yourself respect. If you can’t defend yourself you lose all rights to be respectable. It is always better to jump in the battlefield and then die fighting rather then dieing without even trying.

It is true that no one makes you feel inferior without your consent. Nobody will rag you unless you allow them to. Don’t allow anybody to scare you, believe that you are mighty enough to scare them all. Once you let it happen to you, you will never have the courage to fight it. If you are unable to do it yourself you can always resort to help. If you are alone and nobody is in sight when you are being ragged raise an alarm and shout for help. You can be sure that you’ll be heard. A drowning man will clutch at a straw.

Most of the time, the ones ragging, are the ones who put up a strong face but are uncourageous, actually. Like we say, empty vessels make the most noise. Because ragging usually takes place when you are a fresher, being extra alert then can be of help. Learn a few basic self defense mechanisms. Keep things handy that can help you protect yourself like pepper spray or if needed, a Swiss knife.

Remember that facing your fears is the best way to fight them. Might is right!
