Well, I would like to tell you a similar unremarkable thing which unexpectedly boosted my confidence in my school career. It was my second grade at my primary school when I did my math homework at home during the summer holiday, and suddenly a difficult math question popped up. I used to think just for a short time and directly searched for the answer by myself. I think it wasn’t of great help to me. However, it was so amazing that at least I did it by myself, though the whole process was tough. But only at least I realized the funny process of the thinking that I didn’t have in the previous time. And finally, though the whole process lasted for around two hours, I successfully completed this question by myself. Well, overall, I think this small thing was definitely a confident booster for me. I think that not only it provided the true meaning that the difficult math question provided for me, but also it was of great help to my future study.
