Students’ Speak: Attain channelised thoughts and the rest will follow

By: Kunwar Bhanu Prakash Verma

The burden of academics is enough to inculcate mental chaos let alone the social dogma of comparisons, devoids the students of their inner receptive thoughts and decision-making ability.

So, in such situations, the bonding of the inner circle with family and friends plays an imperative role in social reinforcement.

There is no potion for overnight success, so the best thing to concentrate on is consistency, grit combined with smart work. Smart work means to follow the blueprint of a notable individual to whom you look up to and follow his/her success stories.

We see social media platform covers the superficial ingredients and bring those stories with subtle tweaking, which makes the viewer think that becoming an overnight sensation is a cakewalk and it's worth it. So they start comparing their life with someone they know in a peripheral context. Their behavior and social paradigm shifts to emulate their so-called overnight head-honcho, which leads to depression when they fail to escalate the value ladder because they can see the backend and they are not familiar with the hard work and perseverance that individual went through.

When you stop imitating these tactics, you avoid a substantial chance of being rejected and falling in the trap of failure. Now when you prepare for the upcoming challenges you have bolstered up inner circle.

Now, the next step will be to prepare for the upcoming challenges whether they are in the form of competitive exams, interviews or overcoming personal milestones.

When your thoughts are channelised you achieve optimum experience with the work that you are doing and later that work transforms into the hobby and it transfigures to passion. That is why so many aspirants achieve success with the continuous grind of optimum experience. So whenever you feel like giving up an exam, just attain a channelised thought and the rest will follow.

The process is very simple, prepare a TO-DO list beforehand and at the initial stage when your mind is more receptive, cover the topic which interests you the least and the moment you get on with your personal best interests you have already achieved an optimum experience.

Now, it is much easier for you to achieve a personal milestone with a specified amount of time.
