Learn to deal stress and make life easy....

Most of us get anxious when we face a competitive exam like gre,cat etc.,Also due to bad spending habits many people find themselves in a pathetic situation.Stress has become inevitable in todays fast paced world.But students got to learn coping up with it.Those who do it land up being successful and happy persons whereas those who dont end up as failures or unhappy persons.In severe cases it may also lead to drastic circumstances like suicides.


There are two kinds of people.Those who have fear of failure and those who have killer instinct.Either way a student can score well and become successful.But the former one leads to stress .They do not take risks and are subjected to stress because of fear of failure.It is actually a good thing,in that ,it indicates that you are concerned about your result.But too much stress has drastic effects.One very famous personality Rahul Dravid himself puts it this way"I feel tensed when i walk into the field.Sometimes i think it is too much and hence effects my game.Having no tension at all also effects my game in the same way as it effects when i have a lot of tension".Guys, this chap belongs to the first category and that is the reason why he is not able to handle a lot of pressure when he was made captain.On the other hand youth icon "Dhoni" never feels tensed about the game.That is understood from"it doesnt concern me whether India wins or looses .Only thing that matters is whether we are giving 100%". This is the point i am trying to make.

Now we are concerned about the former set of students .Students are very much tensed during the exams season because they do 'one day batting' as it is popularly called. Almost every engineering student does it. We spend the whole year wasting our time and during the final exams we are subjected to stress.I break my head during the exam season not knowing what to do about the lots of stuff i had to read.The student at this point develops all kinds of negative feelings like for eg.,what if i fail in the exam,then i will be disqualified for the campus interviews,my parents rebuke me etc.,Such situations arise when you want to accomplish something big but you are not up to it.
Lets consider a broader picture. Due to bad spending habits many people go bankrupt. At this point they face a similar problem which is much more severe. They dont save money for the future
Letting those negative thoughts into your mind only exacerbates the situation.Then the best thing you can do is to give your best shot.Always have confidence in you.If not get the highest marks you can atleast get a decent score if you are placid enough.Read everything you can read and leave the rest to God.


But the above said solution is when you are really out of options.If you really want to accomplish something big you have to prognosticate and plan accordingly from beginning.Even the international players do that .For eg.,unless the cricketers practice in the nets they dont have that confidence level to go and play in the field.Always remember "prevention is better than cure"whether it is helmet or something like that:-)To have high confidence levels you need to prepare for that accordingly from the beginning.
