In this video, I discuss how we're taught to fear failure but never how to process it, why the backbenchers often succeed, and what they understand about the real world that classroom-focused students miss.
The key difference isn't intelligence or hard work, but understanding people. While toppers master theoretical knowledge, backbenchers often develop crucial people skills - communication, negotiation, clarity in chaos, and more. I'm not saying you shouldn't study hard, but rather that you need to balance academic knowledge with real-world skills. Most importantly, ask yourself what you truly WANT to do, not just what you should do. Once you know your destination, you'll discover multiple paths to get there, and education is just one of them.
