This study discovers the effects of training of life skills (LS) and positive psychological capital (PPC) on subjective well-being (SWB) of children with visual impairment. It was an experimental, intervention study with Solomon research design. The sample of the study consisted of 160 visually impaired children (95 Boys & 65 Girls), selected from special schools for visually impaired children in Jaipur (Rajasthan). For the training of life skills and positive psychological capital, stories of Panchtantra were used. Total 28 sessions of training (20 sessions for 10 LS &8 sessions for 4 PPC) were given. The ‘Subjective well-being test’ developed by Nagpal & Sell in (1992) was administered before and after training to check the status of subjective well-being of these children. Posttest scores of subjective well-being were obtained after this intervention. The result of the study revealed that the training of life skills and positive psychological capital improved subjective well-being of these children significantly. It was concluded that the method of training of life skills and positive psychological capital through the art of storytelling proved to be effective and interesting for these children. This training equipped them with psycho-social skills and positive perspective towards self, people and work to face the tough challenges of life effectively, independently. Such training paves the way to success and happiness in work place and in personal life. This study has worldwide relevance.
