Dear Friend, 

             How are you? How is everyone at home? I just learned that your performance was unexpected because you were a bit nervous. But, my friend, Let me tell you, this was not your life's last exam or opportunity, and successful people are always the ones who fail in life. You have a bright future, too. I was saddened to see tears in your eyes as you gazed at your answer script. But let me tell you that one bad grade does not mean that your world has fallen apart. Please don’t get demotivated about the poor result; concentrate on your mistakes and try to improve yourself in those areas.

Remember, failure does not mean that you are wrong or that you are not capable enough; it simply means that there are loopholes in your studying method that you need to focus on. This is an opportunity to learn, so don't waste it. I faced the same situation last term when I failed in mathematics. But I did not let failure stand in my way; I consulted the teacher about ways to improve myself, practised relentlessly and aced the next exam. I am sure even you can do it. Everyone makes mistakes. 

Great scientists like Thomas Edison did not always succeed, but they never gave up despite failure. Please do not give up your hopes. If there is any way I can help you, let me know. All the Best for your next exam. Please give my regards to Uncle and Aunty. I will wait for your reply.

With Love,
Nita
