Continuous Practice Makes a Habit

Dear Parents & Students,
st

This is a very crucial time for 10 and 12 classes as exams for 1 term are going to be held very
soon. Dates and schedules will be declared soon by CBSE. As you know, marks of the first term (50%)
nd
and 2 term (50%) will make your complete result e.g. any student got 80% marks in the first term
nd
and 90% marks in 2 term then his average or final score would be 85%. These marks will be shown
in your final mark sheet. This result will help you in deciding which course you should join or which
career you should opt.
Another piece of information I would like to also share with students is that as per CBSE Exam
guidelines, it might be quite possible that our student’s exam center maybe another school and
another school got our campus as an exam center. So I would like to clear one thing to every student
that don’t expect any favor or help they will get either campus comes in our school or not. Success in
the study has no shortcut only through hard work it can be achieved.

I advised to you all my dear students, be serious about your study. We observed many students are
not serious regarding their studies. Students are not coming to school, neither doing their
homework, and they are also not attending their classes regularly and seriously. We are conducting
objective papers regularly but many students’ response is not up to the expectations.

One thing I would like to mention you that continuous practice makes a habit. If you practice on one
thing it will become a part of routine life. Practice will make you perfect. You can better understand
with the example of our Olympians winner Neeraj Chopra or other player preparing for Olympics etc.
games. Do you think, if they won the medals in a day then it’s wrong? To win a medal they
practice for so many years and even after winning this medal, they already started practicing for the
next Olympics which is going to be held after 4 years. Neeraj Chopra already rejoined his training
back at Patiala academy. If some students think their exams are coming and they will crack the exam
and will get good grades just studying the night before exams, it’s not possible.

For competitive exams you need continuous practice, you need to increase your seating practice. As
much as you practice you will achieve more. Assume if any student sleeps at 9PM, he/she should
increase his time by changing 9 PM to 9:30 PM, after a few days they need to add 30 minutes more.
In this way, they can increase his/ her time to 12PM or 1PM. Science research says within 20 days
any person can change his / her biological habit. His/her body accepts that change automatically if
anyone does 20 days of practice for it.
I try to connect you with a simple story. Once upon a time, there was a merchant with his 100
camels. Once he was passing through a jungle he thinks to take some rest. He looked around and
found a suitable place to take rest. After tying 99 of his camels, he found one rope short and there
was no rope left to tie the 100th camel. He tried to make the camel sit with other tied camels but
the camel didn’t sit, this made the merchant upset.

When a passing sage looked at the merchant upset, and he asked about the problem from the
merchant. Sage heard his problem, he started laughing loudly and said, “Tie this 100 camel in the
th
same way as you have tied other 99 camels, but without a rope. As you are doing for the last few
th
years, I mean you should tie this 100 camel with a rope of imagination.”
Merchant follows the sage instructions. He pretended to put a noose rope around the camel’s neck
and tied another end to the tree. As soon as he did this, the third camel sat down very comfortably.

Merchant took a rest and slept comfortably. When he got up in the morning, He removed the rope
th
of all camels. All camels got up and were ready to walk but the 100 camel didn’t get up.
