This is something teen students mostly comprehend about themselves, that they are not good, they should improve, they are dumb, uselesss, etc.

This is what their teachers tell them just because of low grades. If someone judges your whole character just by grades, he/she is a total dumb, absolutely!

You have lots of capabilities, don’t spend your time in depression just because your teachers at school say that you’re not intelligent. Grades don’t matter. Creativity matters…… Character matters….. !!

School teachers are from old times, they’ve old thinking. They don’t know how people actually become successful. I’m not saying that all teachers are like this, some teachers have the ability to understand every student’s inner talents and can help polish those skills.

Look at Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Stephen Hawking, Honda, etc….

They all didn’t get A*s in their finals, they didn’t cram the books… instead, they learned according to the way that suits them, studied those subjects that they think are beneficial for them….

Why study all the subjects??? Why???

Newton’s 3 Laws are the worst!! Just an apple fell on him, and then found out that it was a force…

Newton, Sir Isaac. A quote from one of the best scientists ever goes, “If I have seen further, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants.” Isaac Newton is well known to us, yet we are unable to identify the “Giants.” We are all familiar with the well-known photograph of Isaac Newton in which he is shown experimenting with light. However, we are unaware that more than seven centuries prior to him, Ibn al-Haytham conducted the exact identical experiment.

Islamic mathematicians like Ibn al-Haytham and Thabit ibn Qurra wrote about calculus. Ibn al-Haytham’s writings on gravity are well known. Prior to Newton, Abu Bakr al-Razi recognized a clear distinction between absolute and relative space. Absolute space is three-dimensional and limitless, and it exists quite independently of relative space.

I’m not saying to follow Muslim scientists or something, I just want to convey to you that Newton isn’t that special, the way our Physics teachers admire him, that’s what I dislike.

Anyways, may Isaac Newton rest in peace.

Let’s move on.

There are some people who’s life is a secret, that means, other people don’t understand their interests, their beautiful words, and so, they do everything secretly.

Like, imagine a person who loves to read novels, but get bad grades. Due to this, his/her parents tell him/her not to read anymore novels.

If novels are included in syllabus, everyone scolds to finish the book even if it’s boring and lame. And if someone reads by interest, that person is degraded, scolded, bullied, etc.

Don’t change yourself for people. You have your own interests and you can’t fit into anything in life is you don’t follow your dreams. You don’t need a degree to be a successful person. You need to polish your skills, grow your skills, and then, use them to create a magnificent career in the future.
