Imagine you had a bank account that deposited $86,400 each morning.

The account carries over

no balance from day to day, allow you to keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels
whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out
every dollar each day obviously!
We all have such a bank. Its name is Time. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.
Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever time you have failed to use wisely. It carries over no
balance from day to day. It allows no overdraft so you can’t borrow against yourself or use more
time than you have. Each day, the account starts fresh. Each night, it destroys an unused time. If
you fail to use the day’s deposits, it’s your loss and you can’t appeal to get it back.
There is never any borrowing time. You can’t take a loan out on your time or against someone
else’s. The time you have is the time you have and that’s it. Time management is yours to decide
how you spend the time, just as with money you decide how you spend it. It is never the case of
us not having enough time to do things, but the case of whether we want to do them and where
they fall in our priorities.
The word ‘examination’ or ‘exam’ itself is more than enough to create a chilling, numbing
feeling among most of the students. There is hardly any student who has not experienced such
feeling.
Exams are nothing but a process to test yourself about how much you have learned, how much
knowledge you have gained, and how much effort you have given. Always remember, your
competitors are no alien, they are human beings like you. What makes the difference is the level
of hard work, determination, perseverance and passion among you and others.
Always trust yourself, perhaps you don’t know what miracle you can do. Never stop trying.
While trying, we are totally uncertain about what will happen at the end, what will be in our
hands as the result. But it’s equally true if we quit trying, there will be no result.
I do not deny the fact that the total process is robust. To achieve anything worthy is never an
easy process. When your passion and determination to reach the goal will be rightly driver by
your hard work, perseverance and persistence, you will follow the path of success.
Think positive, nothing is impossible in this world. You just need to keep faith in yourself. Never
prove yourself a loser before the actual defeat. Never give yourself a chance to regret your
inaction in future. Do whatever is possible for you to do.
At first you have to overcome your fear of failure. Such fear never brings any good. Your fear of
failure ultimately leads you to the path of failure. Keep calm and stay focused on your target. Set
an achievable goal. Never set your goals seeing others.
Always remember, it is only you who can best understand the strength and weaknesses about
you. Work hard to nourish your muscles and make them stronger.
Regular study is the best way to gain the desirable result. When you leave your lessons
untouched for the day before the exam, they will create extra pressure on your nerves. The better
way is to divide your tasks into small portion and complete them on a daily basis.
It was the 1870's. Somewhere in a workshop in New Jersey, Thomas Edison was burning the
midnight oil, trying to create a light bulb.

He tried several experiments - all without success. He just couldn't get it right. His failures
became the talk of the town and the story goes that after he had failed for the 500th time, a
journalist interviewed him and asked him, "Mr. Edison, how does it feel to have failed 500
times? Why don't you just give up?"

"No, no, young lady," replied Edison. "I haven't failed 500 times. I have just discovered 500
ways it won't work. I am so much closer now to finding a way that will work!"

And sure enough, in 1879, Edison invented the filament light bulb, an invention that changed the
world. By the time he died, the 'man-who-failed-500-times' had 1024 patents to his credit, and
had founded the iconic General Electric company. But Edison's real contribution to mankind
went beyond all this. He showed us the power of perseverance, the virtue of learning from your
failures, and the magic of never giving up.

To succeed, one must learn to embrace failure, and not be scared by it. Failure holds valuable
lessons for us - if only we are willing to learn. "If you want to succeed, double your rate of
failure." Don't dwell on your failures. Don't play the blame game. Don't doubt your ability. Learn
from your mistakes. Re-focus on your goals. And keep going.

Very often, we do all the hard work and when we don't see the desired results, we turn around
and walk away - even though we may have been just one step away from success. The problem
is, we seldom realize we are just one step away from achieving our goals. In the highway of life,
there are no milestones telling us that success is one kilometer ahead.

The option of turning away and starting a new journey is quite easy, because in our minds, it
takes away the stigma of failure.

Look at little babies learning to walk. They try and take a few steps, they stumble and fall. Then
they stand up and try again. And bang, they fall again. They don't feel embarrassed. They just get
up and try again, until, bingo, they can walk! Think about it. If little children were like us grown-
ups and gave up after a few failed we would all have never learnt to walk!

And yet as adults, we forget that lesson. We are scared to take the first steps, because we are
scared we might fail. And the first time we taste failure, we give up.

That old truism about winners and quitters still holds good. Winners never quit. And quitters
never win.

So always remember,

1. Many of life’s failure are people who did not realize how close they were to success
when they gave up
2. You may never know what results come of your action, but f you do nothing, there will
be no result.
3. Follow your dreams. Make dedication and determination your companion. One day
success will surely be yours.
4. If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never have it. If you don’t ask, the answer is
always no. if you don’t step forward; you’re always in the same place.
5. Nothing is impossible. The world itself says ‘I’m possible’.
