On October 15, I participated in an inter-school debate competition. I was nervous about having to face the audience. I was so nervous that I did not perform very well. I sulked for hours and was ashamed to such an extent that I decided never to go on stage again. But eventually I realised that failure is a part of life and without it, success cannot be truly cherished. I had bravely confronted my fear and taken a risk. After all, failure is not the end, but, the first step on the road to success.
