Write at least 250 words.

In this modern world, it is undeniable that people assume that they can get anything if they work hard. However, some people believe that kids often make promise to achieve goals if they would give their full potential to their studies. This substantial influence of this trend has sparked controversy over potential impact in recent years. Therefore, In this essay I shall explain and analysis the pros and cons of this statement. This will lead to plausible conclusion.

One of the most apparent reasons that a small action makes a big difference. Some kids have higher expectations and even they struggled hard to attain good grades in their school. Moreover, This will be beneficial to build confidence and motivate them to get a good postion in their career. To cite an example, data from University of South Asia pointed out that more than 70 percent students had passed thier chemistry exams due to persistent with their studies and paid full attention to achieve their target.

Another point that should not be overlooked is that kids have more hope and even they study hard to get anything, However, their plans did not turn out well. This seems to be failed in their exams. Furthermore, This will leads to depression, stress and anxiety. Sometime even children lose hope and disappointment with thier management and made false assumptions. Another significant factor is that parents force thier kids to get higher position in their school exams and even their adults are not interesting in those subjects that made them overwhelmed and frustration, even assumed to achieve good grades, However they might failed and distrubed due to higher competitions. For instance, a professor from university of Leeds stated that almost 3 in 5 kids were facing serious mental illness and they had left thier studies due to high expectations and even thier parents foster their kids to become a doctor in future.

Thus to conclude, it is evident that hardwork makes life more easier and develops many skills such as confident and motivate them to achieve their goals. However, we can not overlook the demerits of hardwork which have significant negative impact on children life’s resulting into mental illness due to higher competition.
