Things you cannot control

I love conducting seminars for medical students on competitive exams. Very often, I see some student will ask about why the government policy is like this, why the exam pattern is like that and they will go on to a confrontation mode.

After letting them speak out their heart and pausing.

I simply remind them, there are always things that you cannot control , you have two months to go for exam & changing the world would take longer and revising your syllabus seems simpler and more doable target.

Haven't we all at some point of time in life devoted all our energy into debating what is wrong in the system, and lost the game to people who were focussed on the system.

Let's learn to segregate things. Learn to ignore things you cannot control and channelize energy into positive creativity.

Change will happen automatically !
