We all have different beliefs in life. We have different beliefs, customs, cultures and traditions regarding our lifestyles. We all have these because these serve as our guide and to know who we really are.
As a student, I believe in a saying "Honesty is the Best Policy". Yes, it may sound dull and common but it is the most important thing above all. I mean what's the use of being a top student if you are cheating during the exam? What's the use of being popular when what you show to all other people is just pretention? Don't you see it's a difference? Between being Honest and Pretender?
It doesn't matter if people don't look at you like a powerful person. It doesn't matter if they don't idolize you like you are an artist or a celebrity. What matters the most is that you are being not just to yourself but to your surrounding as well.
As a student, there are lots of competition in school especially when there are big events. There are times that you were chosen as the class representative and of course as a class representative you have to show that you can do it even though you knew that you can't. And that's lying to yourself. It doesn't matter if you win or not as long as you are honest and show to them what you are capable instead of pretending that you knew everything.
Aside from that, I also believed in the saying "Learn from your mistake and make it correct for the second time around. In life, we have experienced different failures and disappointments. We have experienced doing wrong things. But let us remember not to give up. Let's make our mistakes as our basis before doing the same thing again. Let's make it different on the second try. Don't lose hope.
If we failed to do it correctly then let's try it again and this time we will do it correctly. If we failed to do something we want because of fears then let's fight our fears. Don't let your fears to be the hindrance to commit your dreams. Let us not forget that we only live once so that is why we must savour it while still can.
