Why to think about the marks we score in examination? Why to rue the paper? Why to repent that, if I had tried a little bit, I would have solved the mathematical problem? There is no need to cry over spilt milk. What is gone is gone. Let’s think about future. Let’s prepare ourselves for future. Tests, examinations, trials and tribulations are our parts of our life. These are life’s real phenomena. One who rides the horse may fall. Knowing well that we may fall off the horse, we still want to ride the horse.
Just as the brook in an English poem says; “For men may come and men may go, but I go on forever”, we have to go on like the river, despite stony hurdles and bumps on the path ahead. We are not to despair even a bit at the face of trouble, problem or failure. Failure and success are two sides to coin. We become happy beyond control, when we gain something or achieve phenomenal success in our lives. We feel sad, when we fail in our attempt. Why? It is because we fail to live up to the expectation of parents, siblings, teachers, guardians, friends, well-wishers and loved ones. A one-time failure does not mean that we are not capable of doing the best in our lives or achieving what we have long had aspired to. There are also paradoxes in life: the more you read, the less you understand. The more you write, the less you score. The more haste, the less speed. These are the paradoxes. What defines your success is your passion. What translates your attempt into success is your hard work. What nurses your hard work is your commitment. What fuels your commitment is your dedication and devotion. Develop a habit of taking everything that comes on your path, in strides, no matter what. Always think about the positive. Be positive and think that you can ……………………… score more than what is your expectation. Time is yours. You can’t wait for time to knock at your door. You should learn when to tap or harness or make use of time, instead. Frustration and disappointment leads you nowhere. So, always be happy, cheerful and positive and stick to the fact that you can ……………………….. achieve success.
What is the result now? Disappointed by the result? Oops! Never let it come near you. You are capable and you know how to solve what puzzled you in the examination day and have the confidence that you can do much, much better in the examinations in the coming years. Don’t despair. Don’t lose hope. Don’t be sad. Always be like what you were – hansta, kudta, khelta kind of kid – one second before you found your marks beeping on the computer screen.
Go ahead and take everything in your strides and the world will be yours oneday…….. Got it?
