26A – Celebrating Failure
Each semester of school I usually have a few moments of failure. During this semester I failed to adequately study for one of my exams during a week I had back to back exams. I was making sure I did well on my first exam, without taking the proper time to study for my second exam. This has been an ongoing theme of my struggles in college, but I have finally learned from my mistakes. For finals this semester I have had time to study simultaneity for both classes. I hope that I can improve my exam sores by being more prepared. I think failure is something that needs to be embraced more. I am scared of failure which will make me not try to do things. By embracing failure in society so one can learn from it, I think more people open to try new things.

Hey Ashton!
ReplyDeleteThis has happened to me so many semesters, I get under so much pressure and prioritize some exams over others. I definitely agree, I fear failure as well which stops me from doing things where I know I might fail. But you're right! It should be embraced because without failure there is no growth!
Hello Ashton,
ReplyDeleteI’ve been in that exact circumstance several times, where I’m forced to prioritize certain exams. I absolutely agree with your point about being more prepared for exams. I think if I start studying sooner in the semester, I can be prepared in advance for exams, which will take some of the pressure off me to prioritize one of my exams in situations where multiple pile up.
Great work!
