Confidence Comes With Small Achievements.

In my schooling, I had to change schools three times. From 1st to 3rd grade I was in the village where hardly 14–16 students were in my class. I always came 2nd in my class while my best friend was first came.

From 4th to 7th grade, I had to shift with my parents to an urban area. There I saw in my class there were 50–60 students and 4 different divisions. There I came to know about division. I don’t know what happened to me there I was not even in the top 10.

As per my knowledge, I lost my confidence when I saw the number of students in the same class. Although I was enough good at studying I don’t know why I couldn’t able to write in exams. For the 4 years, I never got more than 60%.

From 8th to 10th grade I studied in the hostel. There were also almost 50–50 students in my class. Still, that psychological effect has not gone from my mind and I couldn’t write an exam properly although I knew everything.

Since I left the village I was an introvert who never talked to anyone, no teacher knew my name. even some of my classmates also didn’t know my name. Many girls didn’t even know I was in their class.

But something happened in the 9th grade that nobody expected. Mathematics was my favorite subject and our Maths teachers were very strict. They always prepared very challenging question papers for class tests. In our school since when he came nobody got out of marks.

For the first time, I wrote very well in the exam. I was very sure that I would be a topper in mathematics. I was very eager to know about the scores. Finally, the day came when our math teacher entered the class with answer sheets.

They had a pattern they always kept aside the top 5 students’ answer sheets and the remaining student’s answer sheets. First, he would announce the remaining student’s scores and give their answer sheets. I felt happy as I was not on that list.

Then he would announce the top 5 in descending order. I was not 5th, not 4th my heart was beating very fast not 3rd and not 2nd. First, he announced my name and proudly said in my teaching career this is the first student who got out of marks.

From there not only my class but every teaching faculty started knowing me. That was the first proud moment of my life.

I was like a super duper confident student in the whole school, even my seniors started respecting me. And you know what happened to me next. In the first semester exam, I came 3rd in my class, in the annual exam I came 2nd. In maths, I had no challenge in my school.

In the 10th board exam, everyone expected me to be a topper in school. But something bad happened to me that I will tell you later and I came 2nd with the difference of only 9 marks.

From bottom to top all that happened just because of that one incident of Math paper. From there my life completely changed, I became an extrovert, full of confidence.

Then after that, I completed high school and Engineering with good grades.

What I learned from that incident?

Until and unless you won’t get any results, you can’t give your 100%. But when you get a small output your confidence level boosts and you will see exponential growth.

That is what happened with all the successful people. Every person has talents but only those ahead in life who got something from their efforts.
