(原创)Do you believe in yourself? When you are in trouble, don’t say you can’t get over it. Believe in your dreams. Believe that you are loved. Believe that you make a difference. I was told a about a teacher who once did what he could to make his students get to know the of believing in themselves.
The teacher stood his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know how hard you have worked to prepare for this test,” he said. “And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to a B to those who prefer not to the test.”
Many students thanked the teacher and left. The teacher looked at the students left and said, “Does anyone else want to get a ‘B’? This is your last chance” Two more students decided to go.
Only seven students were still in the classroom. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just received an “ “in this class. believing in yourselves.
I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a test that any teacher could give. Students who are not confident in what they have learned are ‘B’ students at most The same is true in our daily life.

They have got life’s lessons, not only from normal , but from events in their daily lives, and have become better people. You see, one should believe in himself.
