    I just hope TED sees this comment : Can we have more videos and speeches on academic failure? Because I'm a regular viewer of Ted - talks and I find that there are very few videos on this topic. Yet this is a very big issue all students are facing.

      @@himanshuchaturvedi6161 You can not communicate the thought of economics without language, especially when the question is to such an extraordinary degree as to suggest the existence and enjoyment of the great mass of people. It is therefore most eminently a social science and there should never arise any need to prove it when the answer is so painfully overt.
      Edit: Upon further rumination, I find the your question deeply disruptive and offensive, especially when you speak in such an acquainted tone. There is obviously a greater impediment in the bottleneck of language and communication rather than a mere bereavement of knowledge especially when a tendency to procurement has been illustrated- it is invariable and immutable observation stemmed from the founding principals of the economic sciences.

      Here I am again. I'm in my 4th year. And I failed again. The online class is really hard. Our professor gave us false hope that we passed the subject. Grades are already posted in our portal but 1-week pass before the new term, our professor surprised us with the wrong computation/ encoding of grades. A lot of us failed the subject so we need to repeat the subject. We are so devastated especially me since I only need 0.1 to pass the subject and retain my scholarship however after the emergency meeting yesterday, he didn't post anything. He just ended the meeting that we will have a meeting per class today but until today there is no response to our messages 😢😔

    When there is no reinforcement or a positive cue, a person gets negative feedback loop.
    It's important to step back and understand your goals with your abilities.
    Proactively reach out to those who are helping you.
    You fail yourself when you ignore the problem and give up the long-term.
    Persevere in the short period of time.
    Find your commitment mechanism, find ways to overcome failure.
    Humans have the ability of foresight. Use it for decision making to be good long-term.

    I just failed a 10% test in my accounting class. Although I know this isn’t the end of the world.. as someone who has never failed academically before, I can’t help but take it personally. I’ve never felt so defeated and it was honestly shocking. I’ve been sulking all day even though I have so much to do.. the main reason this has been eating at me is because I go to a very competitive law school and to make into next year I have to get good grades in all courses. I just need to bounce back. I can take control and better my grade. I will do anything to achieve my goals

    I'm here becasue I recently failed at a competition; I have a very high position in that organization so I feel like I let everyone down(the sponsor, my parents, peers) I put in so much effort and practice into it, but it still didn't work out. I honestly felt that I don't deserve my loving parents, the beautiful environment of my school, and my comfortable life. I should be rotting in some barren place because I'm not doing anything to deserve this. I've realized that I recognize my weaknesses but I always make a point about them to myself, which is lowering my confidence. I blame every bad thing that happens in my life on myself and I kinda feel like all of these bad things will bury me and make me a failure in the future. However, success isn't the most important thing; not giving up and constantly working towards your goals is. No matter how badly I fail or how much I fail I will never work as hard as possible to make my dreams come true.

      @JonasBebeFTW 3 роки тому +5

      @@user-qy6tu9ip9v I think you’re very right. Our memory works in three components, primarily short-term memory and long-term memory. information in the short-term is stored for around 30 seconds, before it either disappears forever or moves into the long-term. That transition is called LTP where neurons are formed and stored in the cortex(outer part of the brain). For this to happen focus and purpose is required, that is why procrastination prevents it because you’re not really focused. It’s quite fascinating because if you actively put things in context you get a more effective and stronger formation of the neurons. You probably have heard about the life hack: chewing gum when studying and the chew the same flavor when taking an exam. It’s really true because you then have more and stronger formations between the neurons connecting the gum flavor to the information you have studied, thereby making it easier to retrieve. If you at the same time do other things like making a rap about a thing u studied or a little story, then you also have a stronger formation. You get the idea. I hope this made sense and gave you something to work with:) It’s something that i recently have been keeping in mind when trying to remember things.

    I used to be a grade A student that almost never had problem with studying. Yet, I failed miserably on my junior year’s exams. Although I do have second chance to retake it this fall, I literally cannot tell whether I can make up for my horrible exam results or again repeat the same mistake. On top of that, I would not be receiving the grades of my retake before the college application deadlines, which means I have to submit low grades. My gpa is not that perfect as well(it’s 3.82). So my entire application is dependent on my SAT score. But no matter how much I practice how much I read I keep getting the same low scores. I feel like giving up because of it but I don’t want to feel the failure and beat myself up for it again, but I just just *just* can’t get the thought of failure out and I hate myself for it so much…and now look at me crying in the middle of the night…

But I just tell myself that whatever happens for the next 1.5 years Im going to give up all social media. delete my subscriptions and just study and take care of my health. There are people who for any reason went to prison, and started new lives after that. I am sure they have spent a lot of time regretting all they have done and how many years they've lost. And our situations are way better.
      I really feel you brother, if it's really your dream to study in Germany, don't give up, keep finding solutions and work hard no matter what happened in the past (as we can't go back and change it). I won't give up on my dream about aging grad school.

    Reading the comments reminds me that I’m not alone in this, we have all screwed up or have sometimes been screwed over. What matters is that we learn from our experiences and push forward towards something better.
    Tonight I gave up on my virtual economics and personal finance course. I chronically procrastinate (I’m unsure if this is just a part of who I am or if it is related to my ADHD and other things) and cannot manage myself when it comes to self paced work. I massively regret what I allowed to happen this year, and now I am finishing econ with only a little over 9 out of 13 topics completed. I do not know if I will pass or fail, and I do not know how negatively my GPA will be impacted, but there was just no way I could finish the course tonight by the deadline.
    I’ve learned that I can only blame myself for what’s happened and that if I want to make it up I will have to work to defeat my procrastination demon in the future. I wish everyone here lots of love, luck, and recovery. Good night guys.

She left the committee, and then texted all volunteers in the committee to leave. She’s created multiple problems til the point that I’m living off coffee and a few hours of sleep daily. What am I doing? Solving problems shes creating. What about school? I didn’t get time to care about it. I had a test today that I didn’t get to do good at due to anxiety, overthinking, lack of sleep, and brain fog due to covid. I’m so busy at this point and i really feel like I have to idk

It hurts me very often cause I didn't score well for another paper also, which was not actually my fault. However, I have bad marks for two papers and I can't get a retest. I tend to forget about it and focus on my research now.

    The reason why i fear failure is bcoz i dont want to disappoint my father who has high expectations on me. Im the youngest child in the family and growing up, i always looked upto my siblings and their achievements always overshadowed me. Bcoz of that i always wanted to do better than them bcoz it felt like if i fail, no one will bother to listen to me. I felt unheard and unseen. That was why i tried to do better than them in everything.
    I was never good at maths, but when my father asked me to do a degree which was full of maths, i didn't deny, in fear of disappointing him. I did great for the 1st 6 months, but unfortunately failed in one final exam. I dont know how to open up to my father and tell him that i failed. Im lost and confused. He is not strict, im sure he will not scold me or be mad at me, but he will be disappointed and that is breaking me.
    Im not good in anything. I cant do any sport, im not an academic achiever either. I have no ambition, no hobby, no dream, nothing.
    I am so useless, lost and confused

Out of my 5 majors, anatomy is the only subj that I failed and I feel so demotivated. I did every work but somehow our professor is just too difficult. The subject is ok for me it's just the professor. I guess I'll have to work harder to pass and have summers to be regular again next sy.

Praying means asking for happiness. Jesus said ask and you will receive Seek and you will find, knock and the door will open. So Jesus promises to give us happiness.
