As the festival of Diwali approaches near and so does the exam, the most difficult time is for my friends who are taking exam. I was in the same boat. It becomes hard to concentrate at times with a festive mode around. There are guests coming and most of the time their focus or talk is about your exams; there are sounds of crackers outside; everything seems to be joyful outside and you wish that had your exams not been around the corner, you would have been celebrating it too.
How to concentrate then? The answer is with you only, the reason is in front of you only; it’s your purpose.
Nothing is more important than your career, for which you have sacrificed your comforts till now. Diwali will come again and it will become more joyful once you clear your exam; guests will come again, once you clear your exam.
It’s difficult, but it’s not impossible. Only you know, how important it is; how much value these exam hold for you; how much expectations your loved ones and you have put on yourself. Nothing in this world should take your attention away.
Listen to your concise, listen to that hope which is residing somewhere in your heart; understand the purpose for which you sacrificed everything.
Everything will look joyful once you clear it.
Yes, life is to be enjoyed but not at the cost of your goal.
Work hard this Diwali so that you can enjoy each day once you reach your purpose.
So study hard, happy Diwali and All the best :)
