Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you will find that the whole world smiles to you. While in school, sometimes you are tired of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher's face when you did a good job?

When we face failure, we must be confident in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do.

You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you.
