Quest For Life - 19

Dear students, do you want to improve your performance in your studies? If you say yes, learn to use the keys ‘Control + Alt + Delete’.

Question: Exams are coming up in January. The fear of exams keeps us tight.  How can we as students avoid this?

- Student R. Niranjana Deepak, Pune.

Answer: If your computer hangs due to a technical snag, what do you do? You will use the formula ‘Control + Alt + Delete’ and rectify, is it not? Using the same tested method, you can win over the fear of examination also.

 

1. Control Your Unwanted Fear: At the end of every examination, you know how much you feared about it. Is it not? Avoid over-fearing. To face such unwanted fears, pay extra interest and attention while studying for examinations. Then see for yourself, you will enter the exam hall with so much enthusiasm as if you are going to attend your own birthday party.

2. All Power is Within You: Next, you should press this Alternate key of self-confidence mentioned by Swami Vivekananda. This will give you the courage to write the examination.

Fear will come down.

Memory power will increase.

Your marks too will improve.

                                

3. Delete All Weak Ideas and Opinions about You on Your Own Computer: You are disturbed and distracted more only by the criticisms by some relatives and friends about you, such as, “You will not perform well”. Therefore, when you activate the third key ‘Delete’ such distractions will vanish and new strength of mind will spring within you. 

What else Niranjana! Hence, learn to use these three keys well. Thereafter you will be amazed to realise that your ‘Personal Computer’, that is your own mind, will perform simply great, not only during examinations but always in your various walks of life.

Swami Vimurtananda
