ItтАЩs about the self-concept that we carry. That self-concept is not innate but gets built over several years. If your self-concept tells you that you do not deserve to crack the toughest question, then you'll not put everything into cracking the toughest question. In fact, you will needlessly make any question the toughest one. You have to tell yourself that you deserve to solve even the toughest problem, and then the tough problem is no longer all that tough. One has to love himself a bit more and sayтАФyes, it's difficult, but for me, it's doable.

Questioner: Namaste, Acharya Ji. My question was regarding a tendency that I've always had all my life. It was regarding quitting things when they get extremely tough.
Like, I'll give you a short example. Let's say when I was preparing for my JEE, there were questions that were kind of easyтАФlike direct formula-based. There were questions that were of a medium level. And then, there were questions that were very tough, and they, like, you know, combined multiple concepts.
So I usually went with the easy questions and solved them. But when it came to the tougher questions, I quit.
How do I change this tendency? How do I address this tendency and get better?
