4. It is important to have faith in yourself even when you fail, believe that it will work out and you can do it.

Performance Anxiety – How to beat it?

Performance anxiety factor before the exam can be reduced by attempting a lot of mock tests. This will definitely boost your confidence. Vatsa believes that rather than focusing on securing 720, it is important to work on the questions at hand.

In addition to academic pursuits, Vatsa took the route of meditation on an everyday basis to keep his calm. It even helped him surmount the negative vibes. He shares, it is important to know the art of controlling the mind and thoughts rather than letting the mind control your actions. Meditation helps in beating the stress that can otherwise impact performance in the exam.
