Mrs. Anita Mohanan on the Sophomores
To my Dearest Children,
I know you are all anxious about the examinations, especially it's results. The need of the hour is honest effort in preparing for your examinations. What is in our control is our effort & learning.
Success in life depends on many qualities such as confidence, self-esteem, committment, creative thinking, initiative, etc, with people, just to mention a few.
We are bound to face failure at several stages in our life. The important thing is to be able to diffrentiate the failure from your-self. Failure is an event; not a person. If we have not done well in one exam, it does not mean that we are a failure.
Let us make changes in the way we think, to ease off the pressure and anxiety we are facing on account of our result. Do not chase result but be a learner and convert fear into strength!
Good luck, my dear children!
All the best for your board examinations! And congratulations for the brilliant and diligent effort you have taken to publish this beautiful soveneir.
