Students’ Speak: Put a full stop on the fear of failure

By: Shubham Singla

Exams play a crucial role in building a career, this is because failure causes heartbreak. Not only you but everyone wants to reach the top of height. This raises competition level and pressure on students. Your failed examination still has infinite chances of waiting for you.

We all are sailing in the same boat. The only difference is that some reach their destination but some are stuck in storms. It's not that they worked hard and you did less. All students have the same mind, it's wrong to distinguish intelligent and dumb.

You only need the courage to stand again and believe that you can do this better than earlier. Failures are merely part of lessons that help you trust yourself and make you strong. Give your 100 percent. Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. Everyone can solve a problem, the only difference lies in the techniques, how well and how many other ways are there to solve a problem.

If you are stuck on a question then just leave it for some time and do all other questions, after some time tries that question again. The thing that differentiates a topper and a mediocre is the way of thinking towards solutions. Always keep in mind that it doesn’t matter whether you will pass or fail but the thing that matters is that you should always give your best and leave the rest of things on your fate and god.

Always believe in yourself and stop procrastination and overthinking. Think about what happens if you fail, you find a new way to tackle problems easily or you find a new path towards success. Just stop thinking about what other students are doing, never ever compare yourself with anyone else, there is no one the same as you in this world. You are unique and no one can match and beat you.

Peer pressure is one of the problems that every person faces and it just increases the tension. Stop thinking that ‘he/she has scored more than me’. Just try every opportunity that you get, never fear about it. After that opportunity is gone, you won’t be left with anything but regrets. You don’t have to pass or fail, what you need to do is to give your best.
