Key to excellence!

Are you one of those students who scores poorly in examinations?
Do you give up because of the heavy pressure to score well?
Are you the arch-enemy of education?

Well you are at the right place. What is written here may seem absurd, but in reality they are the simple ways to pave your way easily to success. Remember that there are no short cuts to victory. But there are short cuts to achieving it. First answer this honestly…

Do you feel like as though you are fed up of all studying subjects?

Would you prefer to have Facebook, Twitter as your examination test?

Is the way of teaching boring, staff sad?

If even one question has your answer as ‘yes’, then it is easily inferred that you have the potential, but you haven’t opened that package of talents that you have been blessed with. Well naturally, all students including me feel that studies are like menaces. But, if we want to land somewhere in life then it is a must in order to achieve a great career.

 

Nothing is impossible. Firstly, plan out a timetable and set deadlines. Ensure that you have an hour of play and an hour of other recreation. Sort out difficult subjects first. Many people do the easy subjects that they know first and finally find out that they have not reserved enough time for the important ones.

Secondly, Self Control: Keep distractions away for some time. Of course, do speak to your relatives, best friends, etc. from time to time, but, limit it. Set up personal deals with yourself. Say that if you did an hour of work well, then you can play on your PSP vita for twenty minutes. Depending on your intellectual capacity, you can adjust this yourself.

Study daily, study limitedly and avoid last-minute rushes. Studying daily enhances your absorbing capacity. Last minute rushes ruin everything.

I personally used to study for an hour or two daily, perhaps play games for 2 hours, talk for a long time, surf the net also and so on…but it depends on your will power. If you are determined then you can study fast but well. Enjoy and when examinations draw nearer that ‘1000 pounds’ of study-tension is off your shoulders!!

Faith breeds courage!

You don’t have to be over religious to understand that in life we have to overcome the various perils that come in our way. To overcome such obstacles we need courage. This courage is not the physical bravery that we have. We need the mental strength and determination to overcome such problems. Sure in life, this courage is easily wrought by prayer and hard work. But this too is easily spoken than done.

I remember an incident where a middle aged man about 32 years old, was so desperate to ride a Mercedes car. He even suffered from a partial paralysis but his GP doctor gave him the green signal to ride his scooter. He said if I can ride a scooter than why not ride my Mercedes! He showed the will power and determination and hence eventually rode the Mercedes. He believed that his paralysis would not hinder his path to progress and hence he finally developed that positive approach which also was one reason to his speedy recovery.

 

It all crumbles when an individual disbelieves that he or she has that capacity to go on. If you have a relationship problem, you need that courage to clear the mess.

If its a problem at school, deal with it steadily but firmly. Deal with your problems assertively. Avoid being imperative, harsh, rude, boastful and jealous. It will ruin all your progress.

Never  have the ” It’s impossible” or “I can’t do it!” attitude. Have faith that you are unique and blessed and you have that determination to go on. Have a never say die attitude. Believe me, you will become a great person someday. 

Never let your life remain opaque, it must be like reinforced transparent glass that is perpetually non-corrosive and kind of scratch resistant. Memories can spoil your relationship, never let that happen.

 

After all, Faith can move Mountains no matter how steep. So cultivate the seeds of faith and later reap the benefits of courage. Believe in yourself always…because that’s the secret! Have you got the courage?
