so hello everyone I am a 15 year old T who is going to give her voice in just a few months everyone who hears that I am in 10th grade is like oh my God yeah you are in 10th Grade you have your boards next year study well huh don't waste your time I'm like why why is the society created such a hype about the votes don't you think that boats is just like the final term examination which we students have been giving since the very first grade I have heard many cases of students who have forgotten to smile or to enjoy their life just because they are under the constant pressure from their family to study study and study when looking at these situations I feel myself very fortunate because I am a girl who has never got family or School pressure to excel only in studies they have always encouraged my co-curricular activities my family has great expectations but sometimes I feel that these expectations become over expectations from a young age I have been that studious girl of the class you know who used to think that exam marks are everything But as time passed I told myself that Shreya marks don't really Define who you are you are much more than that your skills matter what really shapes your personality is the way you sit the way walk the way you speak but most importantly your inner self what kind of a heart you have as a human being is what really matters at the end of the day no other Beauty shines brighter than that of a good heart look you don't know what questions your teacher is going to ask you in your examination you don't know how strong your opponent is going to be in um say a swimming competition you are unaware of the fact that you are gonna win or you are gonna lose the only thing you know is that you have given your hundred percent you have put in all your efforts of which you are gay people lost do not leave it with a tiny bit of space for you to regret in future mode for regret than failure because harder than failure there's another lesson I have learned from my life so let me tell you this to a story of mice a few years ago I had my blood pressure competition I got to know who my opponent was going to be on that very day so my opponent was a short-haired girl who was a friend of mine before the competition started I went to my mom she wished me luck and I said Mom no need to worry that girl is she doesn't play better than me so the competition started we played and then yes that girl won and I lost I became very sad like very sad my mom tried to contact me and asked Shreya have you thought that why did you lose I said maybe I didn't play well she said no you lost when you said that I am better than her you should never judge or underestimate anyone because everyone is given something that others don't have in grammar there's good there's better than best but what I'm the best there's nothing called bestest right let me give you an example in an interview people were asked that who thinks that they are the best everyone raised their hand except one person sitting in a corner and guess what that person was given the job do you know why because he said that I am limiting myself if I say that I am the best life doesn't stop teaching and I won't stop learning I don't want to create a barrier in My Mind by saying that I am the best so try to be best but don't think that you are the best okay so that's much of a photography I guess by a student let's now talk about a common thing how many of you get negative thoughts yes almost all of us do right everyone says that think positive have positive attitude towards everything I completely agree with this but little bit or not negative thoughts speaking from a student's perspective every student gets this thought what if I chose for good in the exam what if I pay what would be the solution to it so here's the tree sit for five to ten minutes before you study and think of all the possible negative thoughts you can have think think and think what's this negative thoughts is done wash up your break and start with a positive mind in photography we focus on a particular subject and make the background learn that photo looks beautiful just like that let's try to focus on our positive thoughts and blur out all our negative thoughts prefrontal cortex is a part of the brain located in its front side positive thoughts activate this path and helps in increasing our activity at sea just negative thoughts I have mentioned something about the human body let me talk a little bit more whenever our body wants to send a molecular signal thousands and lacks of molecules are released from their original site with the hope that they will reach the correct Target side the idea is that the greater the number of molecules released the better the probability that they will reach the correct Target size similarly when it comes to achieving a goal it all depends on the number of molecules yes the number of attempts you set out to the world to reach your goal that you will reach your goals even if there is one percent chance of missing your target you should never stop trying just like our body because our body will do anything until and unless the molecules reach the correct Target side okay now again coming to 10th grade the year not only of boards but also the year of choosing your career the students have many discussions about our career in our class we hear others plans for future when someone has completely decided the Nitty Gritty of their career will feel insecure every student has this thought what will I do with my future but hey don't worry be clueless at some point in life is okay we have a great example of Priyanka Chopra in front of us who was clueless about her career but look at the height she has touched now pre-plant things do not always work but sudden plants sometimes do we have the power in our hands to write or change our destiny so now again talking about me here's a funny thing my aspirations about my career have been based on the movies I watch I see a doctor in a movie and I'm going to be a doctor I see a pilot and I want to be a pilot as of now I want to be a biology research scientist let's see what happens you know wearing the coat and working with bodyguards behind you looks so cool but to reach that level you have to put in a lot of extra you have to put in a lot of efforts struggle and hard work is the better truth of our life and the only solution to it is determination and perseverance the peak of the mountain won't look beautiful if you haven't seen the worst roads but also every action has equal an opposite reaction the deepest you call the highest you rise and there you have it the butterfly effect everyone says that life is short but this short life is enough if you live it to the fullest do something unique to stand apart from the huge crowd outside no one is you and that is your superpower Wings to the world and shine like the whole universe is yours thank you so much one minute one minute one minute don't forget to wish me luck because I have my forts in a few months thank you so much
