One of my student dropped. He's the best, the province math champion. During the 1st university admission selection the expectations were high. And he didn't pass away. Meanwhile, a close friend pass brilliantly at the best university. His reason is stuck, the logic doesn't arrive. He sat down in the corner of the library. The sky was dark, the world was falling. I didn't even dare to make eye contact. I sat near him. "Do you know that God's reasoning is not always causalistic? Do you know that one day in the next time you look back, analyze your footsteps, you will smile and conclude like me? You are just looking for which path God has chosen for you. So your mission is only try to find it, with joy. Never fall by failure or get drunk of success. Keep looking until you find it .. And yesterday he talked to me: As soon as I received the announcement of the efforts, I remember what you said, Sir

actually no, that's too much, @amitkokiladitya. I have only given a little personal touch to my professional duties.

Failure is actually something that is bound to happen, don't get too comfortable with success, plan for failure too so when it happens you will be able to pick yourself up without any regret
