Introduction
Adjustment and emotions both plays a very important role in a human’s life. A person is social human being, who lives in the society and faces every condition and situation of their life in the environment (good or bad) of his society. In a human’s life adjustment and emotions both plays a very impressive and important role. If a person can adjust very well, so his life is also very well and he adjusts in every situation (good or bad) in his life, so his adjustment level is good. And he feels like happy, joy and calm, but if a person is not doing adjust in our daily life’s situations so he can feel stress, irritating and sad, all these are types of emotions.

The meaning and definition of adjustment
Adjustment is process of interaction between our own self and our surrounding environment. Every person constantly tries to unite its self with the environment or keeps trying to be convenient towards the environment, and this is why a person changes the environment actively or passively. A person canadjust satisfactorily according to the easiness of its ability to change the environment. Like other animals, a person also needs to adjust with the environment to fulfill such requirements like physical, psychological and material. The adjustment becomes easy and satisfactory on the basis of this effectiveness of the interaction.
