Unable to get over the failure of mains. Somehow it keeps coming back to me and its hard to concentrate on what to do now. The focus always goes towards the years lost specially when there were better choices left behind. I don't know how to get over this vicious cycle of negativity and unproductivity. The moment I get on with something, the anxiety kicks in again. It feels like I dont have the energy to do anything now.
People who have been through this, can someone suggest on how to move ahead?
Been there. Failed Mains. Failed after Interview.
If we start accepting the blame of failure, it will help us focus on what's coming next. I never blamed anyone for my failures but myself. So, when I failed, I had questions in my mind. Questions like- What do I do differently for my next attempt?
When we expect too much and are not able to locate the locus of failure, we remain anxious and confused. The only way to move on is when we acknowledge the fault within us and start working towards identifying and ultimately, eliminating it.
This way of thinking has kept me sane and clear-headed.
