RESULT OF BOARD EXAMINATION.
"Your exam results do not define you as person and \or predict your future."
-Laura Henry
It's time for results....yes 10th & 12th board results. I heard that several students topped in these exams. People are saying congratulation to those who topped or got good marks. But no one thought about those who got lesser marks or got failed. Yeah, it's fine to appreciate the toppers but somewhere it works as demoralization for the other students. Why our society made these comparisons based on just marks?
Recently my friend's brother who is very intelligent got 63% in 12th from CBSE Board, and as the result declared all the relatives and friends start comparing their children's marks with his marks by criticizing him like he was overconfident that's why he got these many marks, and so he decided to repeat 12th from the state board, just for scoring good percentile. We all tried to convince him that it is just a waste of time, but he denied it. Now just because of other stupid people he is going to repeat class 12th and going to waste a whole year. So in this way our society is helping the youths of our nation by criticizing them.
Believe me; these marks cannot define anything about you. These are just the numbers. Never assume your future based on these results. You can do much better in your life than those people who topped. As we all know God has given some unique qualities to everyone. Many examples are there, that how the dropouts became millionaires, we should get inspired by them.
Many students suicide just because they got fewer marks or failed. Don't choose a self-destructing path. Life is full of opportunities. But the only thing, which helps us, is patience. Patience can seriously change your life. Don't listen to these fool people, they don't know your value, but you must value yourself, your life, your thoughts.
We have thousands of options, this is the time when only bookish knowledge is not enough to get a job or to do the startup or simply to earn money.
Now we have to focus and work on our skill development. But for doing so, firstly, we have to find the inner quality and our interest's areas, then with a proper plan, we can achieve anything whatever we want.
