When you fail in an exam
Even though the hard work put into the exam preparation is same the results may vary due to luck. This is true because a person getting just one mark less than pass mark might have got through if he had one more known bit in the exam.So, why do we really worry if we fail in an exam? It is just a warning that we must be more thorough in our preparation for next time. It does not mean that we are less capable than those who have passed. We only need to put more effort for the forthcoming tests. Failure should be taken with the right spirit. It’s causes should be analyzed and care should be taken avoid them. People who laugh at our failure should be made to appreciate us. Remember that exams have been discovered and they are being conducted only to test our knowledge. They are just the steps for going on to the next floor. Do you stop moving onto the stairs if we slip on a step? It is that foolish to be depressed and stop concentrating on your studies if you fail in an exam. There are innumerable failures before any successful action. In all circumstances of life you must always be very careful to guard against despair. One who has faith, even if only in himself, can face all difficulties The mind is everything. What you think, you become . Life is like an echo. We get from it what we put in it and just like an echo, it often gives us much more. Our future does not lie in where we are, but in what direction we are moving. Even if you are not responsible for your situation, you are responsible for your reaction to it. Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have and only you can determine how it will be spent. Here’s is a small writing from Robin Sharma’s book titled “Rewrite your life story”- One of the most wonderful things about time is the fact that you cannot waste it in advance. No matter how much time you have squandered in the past , the next hour that comes your way will be perfect, unspoiled and ready for you to make the very best of it. No matter what has happened to you in the past, your future is spotless. Realize that every dawn brings with it the corresponding opportunity to begin a completely new life. If you so choose, tomorrow can be the day that you start getting up earlier, reading more, exercising, eating well and worrying less. At any moment I could start being more of the person I dream to be. There are innumerable failures before any successful action. Had Thomas Edison not been a man of faith, perseverance and determination, we may still be working by gaslight or at least, it may have been many years before the first electric light was seen. It has been reported that Edison failed over 6,000 times before perfecting the first electric light bulb. On one occasion a young journalist challenged Edison saying to him, "Mr. Edison, why do you keep trying to make light by using electricity when you have failed so many times? Don't you know that gas lights are with us to stay?" To this Edison replied, "Young man, don't you realize that I have not failed but have successfully discovered six thousand ways that won't work!" Because Edison believed an electric light was possible, he refused to give up. Keep up your spirits and with your perseverance show the world that you are the best. |
