‘When I was told I was 75, I said 25 left’: PM Modi tells students to focus on future | India News

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday urged students not to consider success in exams as the sole purpose of education and said an individual’s character and temperament, not just grades, determine success in life. “Education is not just for exams but for life. Exams are for looking at yourself,” Modi said at the annual ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha’ interactive event aimed at helping students cope with exam pressure, adding that the ultimate goal is not marks but all-round development in life. Modi said he believes in focusing on future goals rather than dwelling on what has already happened. “A leader told me, you are 75 years old. I replied, there are 25 years left. I don’t count what has passed. I count what is left,” he said. His advice to students: “Don’t waste time counting the past. Think about the life ahead.”
