JAMMU: “A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in the pursuit of success”. With these inspiring words, Atharv from Grade 6 Galaxy introduced the theme of the assembly “Rejection & failure” with the audience.
Substantiating the stand of the class, another student Jasjot Singh stated, “when we fail, we should take the time to reflect, learn and adjust our approach. This helps us improve and get closer to our goals. Failure is not the end, but rather a new beginning. It’s an opportunity to learn from our mistakes, develop new skills, and grow as individuals”.
“Failure is always going to be a part of our lives whether we like it or not. We are humans, we make choices, and every choice has an opportunity cost. However, nothing is certain in life, as I have come to know and reflected on failure as a source of guidance that can bring individuals to achieve remarkable things”, he added.
Summing up the elaboration on the topic, he further added, “Failure is life’s greatest blessing. Yes, it is paradoxical, as failure can be detrimental, resulting in unfavorable loss of jobs, money, family, friends, or anything considered precious”.
Reinforcing the line of argument, Idhant narrated a poem:
“Life is largely thought
for the good.
But, setbacks also live
in its neighborhood.
Can be won every time,
if faced with nerves.
Life then goes smooth,
on its curves.
Hard work, Smart work
isn’t always paid.
Hopes breakdown and
dreams start to fade.
Besides all deeds,
rejections hit back.
Failures we face
and belief we lack.
Ups and downs are
a life’s clear stance.
Rejection is an invitation
for the next chance.
Keep up the spirits
and try things again.
Failure means:
efforts don’t go in vain.
Making his concluding remarks on the topic, Principal JKPS Kunjwani Rajesh Rathore said, “Failure is natural, something very common. We may fall in life while confronting the arduous challenges, yet we must bounce back”.
“Failures must be taken very positively, as victory is a material gain but a spiritual loss, whereas failure is a material loss but a spiritual gain. Victory is always followed by merriment and celebrations, whereas failure is always followed by self-introspection & realization. Bounce back after every failure & emerge a victor”, summed up the Principal.
