Failure is the best teacher in life, this is something that I stand by as I have had the first-hand experience of this in my life at a crucial stage in my life. This incident also goes back to the time I was preparing for my engineering entrance examinations, where during my first attempt I failed miserably at securing my desired colleges. I was shattered as this was something I had never experienced on such a large scale and stage in my life before. I had only two choices – either to compromise with my dreams and settle for something I did not want or two to strike back again with a dedicated and focused attempt and conquer what I had wished for. Though easy as it seems, it was a tough decision as solely I would be responsible for its consequences. I went ahead of my fear and took the path less travelled, and as Robert Frost said, it made all the difference! I secured a much better college and moreover I gathered the experience of believing in myself and my abilities. This failure was a valuable life lesson and has helped me in achieving many such successes further in life.
