They called her “just a maami in a saree". 

She proved she was a force of nature.

Dr Jayshree Vencatesan’s journey didn’t begin in a lab — it began in childhood, in quiet moments spent with her father, who taught her to deeply respect the natural world. That early spark lit a lifelong fire.

In 2001, Dr Jayshree Vencatesan stood before the polluted, nameless marshlands on the outskirts of Chennai — a place locals dismissed as kazhuveli, Tamil for “a place that drains.”

Dumped with garbage, choked with sewage, and nearly erased by encroachments, the marsh had been written off by many.

But she saw something they didn’t — life.

Armed with a Rs 32,000 grant and a passion for conservation, Jayshree began mapping the wetland.

What followed was six years of relentless advocacy — knocking on doors, filing petitions, gathering data, and never backing down.

By 2007, her persistence paid off: 317 hectares of the Pallikaranai Marsh were declared a Reserve Forest.

Today, over 700 hectares are protected — and she has restored 44 wetlands across Tamil Nadu using the same model of science and sheer will.

She’s now made history as the first Indian to win the prestigious Ramsar Wetland Wise Use Award, becoming one of only 12 women changemakers recognised globally in the field of wetlands.

“You can’t expect results overnight when you work in conservation,” she told HT. And yet, because she didn’t stop believing — our wetlands are still breathing.

Role Models-1: "Young Saviour: Student buys Orphanage"

A student who visited a run-down African orphanage was so moved by the children's plight that she raised 30,000 Pound Sterling to buy it. Amy Lambert, 24, set about gathering funds after witnessing the horrors at the decrepit Kichijo Orphanage in Tanzania. she spent eight weeks volunteering there last summer, when cared for 150 boys and girls, many of whom had lost one or both parents to AIDS and HIV. Lambert found children who were starving, dangerously dehydrated and sleeping in dirty beds. The undergraduate at Bath Spa University raised more than 30,000 Pounds Sterling in just seven months. Her offer to buy the orphanage was accepted earlier this year.

How To-5: "How to Be Your Own Hero"

How to Be Your Own Hero

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

Be your own hero. Trust that voice within, the good one, not the one that tells you to give up and go to the pub. Improve those problematic areas in your life by becoming your 'hero'.

Steps

1. Choose your Hero: first you must choose a personal hero; real, fictional, dead or alive. What are the qualities you look up to in this person? If you don't have one, you can create one based on the qualities you most admire in people or would love to possess. Such as being confident, strong, assertive or authoritative.
   
2. Emulate your hero: to begin with simply consider the qualities of this hero and act some out in private. Get into their mindset by assuming their posture, using their expressions and striding in the same strong manner.
   
3. Re-enact the past: consider some situations at work you think should have gone better. This may have been during a meeting or presentation, whilst on the phone or just chatting with your boss during lunch. Next play out these scenes as your hero. How would they have acted in the same situations? What would they have said or done?
   
4. Try it for real: now you have to take on some of these characteristics. It may feel strange as you are not used to behaving this way.
   
5. See how it feels to use these qualities in reality. Ask yourself whether you were just acting as your hero or if you were uncovering hidden attributes to your own personality. You will probably discover that you are not just pretending to be your hero – but that you are, in fact, your own hero.

How To-4: "How to Be a Good Role Model"

How to Be a Good Role Model

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

You would be surprised if you found out how many people look up to you. Think about how many people in your own life that have inspired you to get to where you are today. By being a good role model, you can help others to achieve success in their own lives.

Steps

1. Be aware of your actions. Realize that somebody is watching you most of the time. Whether you are working diligently or picking your nose, chances are somebody noticed.
   
2. Identify your bad habits and problems that you have. This could be everything from getting drunk on purpose or not getting enough sleep. To know if it is a bad habit or not, ask yourself the following questions:
   
• Does it hurt others around me?
  
• Is it detrimental to my health?
  
• Are the results of my actions good or bad?
  
• What are the long term effects?
  
• If I stopped doing it, would I become a better person?
  
3. Once you figure out your bad habits and problems, fix them. Try doing little punishments to yourself whenever you do the bad habit and reward yourself for not doing it. You may not be able to stop doing it all at once. Try decreasing it little by little until you stop. Then, make sure you don't start again.
   
4. Show off your good qualities. Chances are, people will see everything good that you do too. Make an effort to go out of your way if you think that you can help someone.
   
5. Be an inspiration. Whether you're a parent, teacher, coach, athlete, artist, or anything else, do what you do best. People you have never met and never will meet are watching you perform. It is up to you to meet their expectations and show them the right way through example.

Tips

• Talk and become friends with the people who look up to you. Chances are, many of your friends do look up to you, whether you realize it or not.
  
• If you are a parent, put your family first.
  
• Older siblings, set a good example. Your younger siblings are imitating you most of the time.
  
• Remember, no one is perfect. Just do your best.
  
• If you are student, use the character traits that you learned about in school. Such as: empathy, honesty, attentive listening etc.

Warnings

• If you are a bad role model, it will hurt those around you. Turn your life around, and you will be turning around more than one life.

====================How To-3: "How to Choose a Role Model"

How to Choose a Role Model

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

Role models are important. They help us become the person we want to be and inspire us to make a difference. Choosing wisely means that you are influenced correctly and will help you be the best person you can be.

Steps

1. Choose someone who has a lot of confidence in themselves and their abilities. A good role model would be someone who knows who they are. You don't want someone who is down and who will bring you down. You want someone who won't pretend to be someone they are not, and won't be fake just to suit other people.
   
2. Consider someone who thinks it is alright to be unique; even if that means accepting some ridicule. They should make you feel good about being yourself, they shouldn't make you compare yourself to them and wish you were pretty.
   
3. Think about someone who interacts well with others', and someone who is kind and can communicate well with people.
   
4. Look for someone who is living life the way you would like to. If you want to be a famous author, your role model could be someone who has been successful at writing. If you have always wanted to be a nurse, your role model could be someone at your local hospital who is dedicated to their job and someone who you look up to for their achievements.
   
5. Find someone who doesn't always take credit for what they do. Like a teacher or nurse. Not a celebrity or athlete because most of them tend to be conceited.
   
6. Choose a role model who may have done something you find admirable, such as raised a lot of money for charity, saved lots of lives, helped people in need or discovered the cure for a disease.

Tips

• Keep in mind that having a role model does not mean you become exactly like that person, remember to retain your individuality.
  
• A role model should be someone who you want to be like, and someone you admire.
  
• You shouldn't change yourself to be like your role model; be like them, but put your own individuality into the things they do.
  
• "Believe in yourself, fulfil your potential, be your own Role Model". [1]
  
• Your role model doesn't have to be a real person, or someone who is alive. Maybe you consider Anne Frank to be your role model, or a character from a book. That's okay, but bear in mind that instead of being able to directly ask your role model for help, then you'll have to think, "What would he/she do in your position?"

Warnings

• Some poorly chosen role models may take advantage of their position.
  
• they also can direct you to a wrong place where you dont want to be.
