“I failed my most important exam twice. I can't get over the guilt of not being good enough. I have never failed any exam. But this was a very important exam for my career. My parents didn't even scold me but i know i have disappointed them . Everyone had so much expectations from me but I let them down. More importantly i let myself down. And idk how am i even gonna get over this. I know they say it's just a sheet of paper or some marks don't determine your future but this exam was a turning point for my career. I feel so useless ..i don't even know how i'll gather myself to get back to preparing again cause the hurt is so fresh that i am scared to start over. The fear of disappointing my family and myself is eating me alive .”

Right now I'm in the same situation. I'm a professional studies student and I have paid a lot for this and the exam but I failed on my first attempt my parents didn't scold me but I have disappointed them. I have set the expectation level and proved them wrong. I'm going through my greatest downfall era but listen it's okay to fail. The key to success is trying without quitting. Once u quit there will be no evidence that u tried. Change your mindset, gather all the confidence again try again and prove your mindset what you are capable of okay...
