Motivation Tips to Clear Government Exams
Recently, I was approached by one of my former students, who has been preparing for government exams. Though she has been doing her best in terms of her preparations; yet, at times, she felt quite demotivated and disheartened. Here is what I shared with her. These are those motivation tips that helped my students achieve their career goals.
Dear _______,
Thanks for reaching out to me, and sharing your concerns. I can understand what you are going through these days.
I strongly believe that you have got a lot of potential, and what you exactly need is 1. Self-affirmation, 2. Proper Planning, and 3. Consistency.
1. Self-affirmation:
Believe it or not, this is one of the most powerful ways to keep yourself on track. It means you need to keep reminding yourself of your goal at least four times a day. You can do it in various ways. The most effective way is to have the pictures of the successful candidates in front of you (as a collage and putting it on a wall in your room). Another way is to write a self-affirming letter to yourself as if you have already cleared the exam and now how you are feeling. And put all those joyful feelings of your ultimate achievement and happy emotions (after succeeding) on paper and read that letter at least 4 times a day.
2. Proper Planning: I do not doubt your present planning, yet try to think of ways how you can prepare and plan better to succeed in your next attempt. Take your time and think of your areas of improvement, your shortcomings, your drawbacks, your weaker parts and then make strategies. Schedule and plan your whole day according to your strategy and prepare hard. Even if you study just for a few hours, make sure to give your best and make the most of those few hours. There is no point in dragging along the whole day and getting just insufficient returns, and then feeling unhappy (and guilty) with yourself by the end of the day. Also, keep up with the previous year questions papers and sample papers. Read online blogs and interviews of successful candidates not only for inspiration, but also to know their success strategies and then make due modifications/ changes in your strategies.

3. Consistency: And last but not the least, here comes the most important thing called 'Consistency.' I promise you if you follow point (1) and point (2) and remain consistent, nothing can stop you in achieving what you have aimed at. For sure, you need to be consistent, whether it's your daily schedule, your daily preparation, your daily timetable, your daily self-affirmations and, so on and so forth. Keep yourself on track. Once this whole thing becomes your habit (or say, your addiction), you will rather even start enjoying every bit of your preparation-journey. Remember, you have a lot of potential, you just need to focus all your attention and energies towards one aim, one target, one objective, and You Can Surely Do It!
All the best!
