Dear @Fearless.soul,
Believe me or not, itās a growing trend in teenage.
You must understand that things will not be same always. It will change.
Now please listen carefully, there was a boy in my school, who was a very studious guy and always scored more than 90% marks in both 10th and 12th class but after college he indulged in similar practice as your so called āstudious and perfectā friends. He was my junior in college as he dropped for preparation. More than studies he was busy with friends and other things. And guess what, he struggled throughout his college and didnāt even got college placement.
There was another boy in my class in college- a very skinny guy from Bihar. He used to stammer a lot. Many made fun of his physique and his talking. He was a hard working guy but never scored very good marks in his semesters. But I must say he was a dedicated boy. In last year of college he joined college gym and was one of the first guy to reach the messš. You wonāt believe, within a year he was transformed into a buff. You will be surprised that now he works with one of the leading and giant IT company with handsome package.
Believe it or not these are true stories. There are so many of them.
So please understand that, bullying or making fun or teasing is not a new thing in teenage boys and girls.
You will agree with me that after 5-10 years you may not even remember their name. Life is too big to cry and get depressed.
Do not stay behind in your past. Itās already gone. Past is for learning, Present is for doing and future is for your goal. Itās consequence of your present actions.
You must focus on your career and self improvement. Next year you gonna go to college. Do good study and make your career. Work for your improvement and enjoy your life.
How would it feel to you, when you surprise them with your success?
In short-
-
Do not pay attention to the destructive criticism. Ignore them.
One of my favourite saying- ą¤ą„ą¤¤ą„ą¤¤ą¤¾ ą¤ą„ą¤ą¤ą„ ą¤¹ą¤ą¤¼ą¤¾ą¤° ą¤¹ą¤¾ą¤„ą„ ą¤ą¤²ą„ ą¤¬ą¤¾ą¤ą¤¼ą¤¾ą¤° 
-
Your future depends on your present works. Maybe you need friends but choose the right friend circle. Friends who pull you down cannot be real friends.
-
Very very important thing- Do believe in your own worth and competence. Have self belief and self confidence. Keep in mind that people cannot treat badly to the person who have pride in themselves. Be proud of who you are.
-
Correct the root cause and do not cry over the spilt milk. If you are comparing yourself with somebody, please consider the effort put by both of you. May be they worked harder than you to succeed. There is always a cause-effect relationship.
-
Last but not the least, Do you think getting depressed will help you getting better? Hell No. never⦠So do what will help you getting better. Be happy, enjoy life, do hard work and be better.
Fight the obstacles, glory awaits you.
Best regards
