English Reinforcement Essay

Should the failure in high school sink us into depression and sadness?

“Only those who dare to have great failures end up achieving great successes.”

(Robert F. Kennedy)

Usually these questions are asked in the youth stage. Specifically in study life, where the great majority of humans suffered at least some failure. But let's go back in past. There was a stage in which suffering and failure were accepted as part of everyday life. We are talking about existentialism, and great exponents like Sorem Kierkeegard asserted concepts such as that happiness does not exist, and it is only a state of less pain.
Authors such as Sartre, Camus and Cioran raise similar concepts. These were talked about failure and acceptance of it. The feeling that prevailed was pessimism and pain, the latter being recognized as the only true feeling.

We are all different, therefore we have different types of intelligences. There are eight types and they are the following:

Linguistic intelligence.

Logical-mathematical intelligence.

Space intelligence.

Musical intelligence.

Body and kinesthetic intelligence.

Intrapersonal intelligence.

Interpersonal intelligence.

Emotional intelligence.

That is why not everyone can be perfect in everything, and each stands out in different classes when it comes to studying. Some are good in math, others in arts, and others in science. For this reason when we fail in some we begin to feel bad. But the failure is much more common than we think, great figures illustrious at world level failed in great however they managed to surpass themselves for example Einstein, Hemingway, Walt Disney, Warhol, etc. Be in summer classes to take the recovery exam is the most common thing to feel sad. But it is a new opportunity to demonstrate that we can learn. There are several reasons why we can fail. Among these are: Do not pay attention most of the time and engage in friendship with people in the classroom. Leave things to the end and fail to organize study time. Or simply dedicate the time of study to the performance of other types of activities that do not reinforce our knowledge.

We can avoid such situations if we study from the first day of school. But in the case of not exceeding the expectations of study in spite of the effort we must organize our time better, talk to the teachers and ask for reinforcement activities. Failure is not bad, to fail is to emphasize the small things that we must improve. And there is no reason to feel sad or depressed, we no longer think in an existential way. We can overcome obstacles as long as we worry about studying and overcoming ourselves through the types of intelligence we have.
