FOR THOSE WHO HAVE REPEATEDLY FAILED IN NET: Good evening to all. I wrote a post for NET preparation and I was very to get so many likes and good comments for that. I received large number of messages from NET aspirants with different queries. The most common thing which I could conclude from large number of messages was that most of students are depressed because of repeated failures in previous NET exams. I was surprised to hear that many of students have lost just by few marks. It is very much obvious that one will feel depressed when he/she fails in NET in spite of hard work. I just thought to share one of my post concerning dialogue with NET aspirants who have failed repeatedly. This post on uploaded earlier on some other community on facebook. If you are tired of appearing NET repeatedly and are thinking of quitting it, you must read this post. I have just copied the same post here. The post was: The NET result is finally declared. There was quite good number of students who cleared NET this time as seen from facebook posts. At the same side there was a big number who could not clear NET this time. I received large number of calls saying that they could not clear NET in spite of very hard work. I felt sad to hear that many of these students were studying from last so many years. I saluted their commitment because I believe that these students really are winners as I know that winners never quit. In last exam, a student of mine failed NET by few marks and he was very much disappointed due to that. He was too nervous and thought of quitting these exams. When he came to meet me, he said me that he is quitting the NET exams as he is feeling that he will never be able to clear it. I remembered two incidences. One that occurred with my student Neha Patil and the other with myself. Let me begin with a sisterly student of mine “Neha Patil” who is in my friends list on facebook. She did lot of hard work for couple of years and in spite of trying very hard from every aspect, she could not clear NET in Life Science. One day she called me and said that she wont be able to clear NET AS SHE HAS ALREADY GIVEN HER BEST and therefore has decided to stop preparing for these exams. I was nervous about her decision as I knew that she was going to clear NET sooner or later as she was very brilliant. I replied her saying that if she has such a feeling means that she is about to clear NET. This is because I knew that such a feeling is indication of clearing NET in next attempt. I said her that if she sticks to her study for couple of months, she will definitely clear NET. I said her that if any good thing is about to happen, evil thoughts capture our mind and try to deviate us from our goal. Many a times we become victim of these evil thoughts. I said her not to allow evil thoughts to take charge of her mind. She agreed and continued her study. She cleared NET in her next attempt. Another person regarding whom I want to speak when I am talking about people who have failed NET repeatedly is myself. Let me tell u that I remember myself when I see students who have missed NET by marginal marks as I remember my old days. I have to fail three times in NET before my first success. The worst time of my life use to begin when I use to hear that I have failed in NET. I use to curse myself and use to get depressed. The phenomena which use to start from myself use to continue as my parents, friends and teachers use to criticize me saying that I will never be able to do it as it is very hard. I use to feel very sad because all the hard work which I did use to go in vein and let me tell u about my hard work, I use to study 16 hours a day. My preparation days were filled with only study nothing else. Once I use to get a fail result, it use to be very difficult to plan for further study because there use to be so many problems, the first of which was financial assistance form my parents. Because its gamble you are playing with your precious life. You spend 6 months of your life in studying so hard and finally end with just disappointment. I still remember my first failure in NET. I was shocked to see my negative result. In spite of that I was determined since I thought that may be I haven’t put up my best and thus I might have failed. So, I was not worried for my first failure so I requested my parents me to offer me financial assistance for next month and promised them success next time. When they agreed, I started studying and this time I started preparation in different style. I tried to find out 10 reasons which made me fail in NET. Some of such reasons were lack of proper selection, reading books which were in appropriate. I decided not make such mistakes again and did a very hard study for next six months with huge efforts. I appeared for next NET as I was damn sure about result. Finally, the result was declared and I was shattered to see one more failure in NET. It was one of saddest day of my life. I started thinking that may be I can never clear NET. I decided to give up preparation and seek some job in chemical industries. Inner mind was opposing this decision but then I thought I have put up everything to clear NET and still I could not get success means that I am not capable of clearing NET. But God has a different plan towards me. I met a friend of mine who has lot of spiritual knowledge next day. When I told him that I am quitting NET studies, he said not to do that giving me a good example. He said that there is a negative energy around human beings. If some good thing is going to happen, this energy captures you and compels you to take wrong decision. He said me that you are almost going to pass NET in coming NET, so negative energy has captured you and it is forcing you to take wrong decision. He said me not to be victim of the negative energy. I agreed with him because I had a confidence in myself that I can clear NET if I study for NET. I decided to fight back. But this time, it was slightly more difficult. Everybody (family members) started shouting me for searching job. Friends started criticizing me. But I never wanted to quit NET because I had studied almost a year for that. I decided to start my studies but it was difficult to convince my father this time. When I requested him too much, he agreed for financial support. As you know, its embracing asking them money after your masters. But I was helpless. I worked very hard this time. One good thing I did was I read different books this time. Finally, in next NET, I could get JRF. I was so fortunate that Bharat Ratna CNR Rao invited me for research when I cleared JRF because that time there were very few students who have cleared NET as awareness towards such exams and also towards research. It was my story which started with failure and finally ended with success. I just thought to share it with you because thereafter I cleared CSIR NET 10 times consecutively with aim of putting my name in Guinness book of world records. May be many of you are going through the same phase which I went few years ago. Its my appeal to you all not to quit your studies. I know its very hard time for many of you. If you have appeared for NET many times and still failed, I call you as winners because winners never quit. I have always appreciated students who are studying for NET in spite of repeated failures than those who have cleared NET. As I was taught that self recognition is first step towards success and thus when I think of all those students who failed in spite of hard work and are still preparing for NET, I thought that they are the people who have recognized themselves since they believe that one day they are going to do it. I obviously call them BRAVEHEART. I am sure many of these are going to be great people in future and thus may be in future, in spite of quoting about Einstein, it may be there story to quote. So, don’t get disappointed by failure. You are about to crack NET next time so don’t quit, don’t get depressed, don’t get frustrated. Don’t allow negative energy to capture you because that energy knows you are going to crack NET and thus that energy does not want you to continue your studies. So don’t allow that evil energy to capture you. Start your preparation again. Fight back. Make a plan B this time. Put more efforts than what you have applied earlier. Be positive. Motivate yourself. I know you are going to clear in Dec. And last thing I want to tell you is that if you are having worst time going on, it means that best time is ahead.
