Dealing with the constant pressure
Hey.. I don't know if you guys can consider this a question bt I was in need of talking to smone and this site is what I saw in front of me.. Im a student in my senior year.. and I'm from lebanon. Senior year has been somewhat hectic.. Ive been studying a lot.. bt the problem is I wasn't finding any results.. I have my friend with me in class.. she's so smart and I feel as though I hve to keep competing with her and its just too tiring.. I do fine on tests bt not the fine that I want.. Tht makes me feel average and that hurts.. Im the kind of person who wants to be successful who has dreams and hopes.. however they keep tumbling down with every "average" grade that I get.. Its scarying me and making me feel that its impossible for me to achieve my goals and dreams.. Another thing is that this constant competition with my friend.. and every time she gets a grade higher then me.. it gets me down more.. any advice on how to deal with this?.
