Letter to Younger Brother to do Good in Studies

Human nature involves two main factors to reform him and lead him to a successful life. One is fear of failure and the other is motivation to achieve some target. Both factors play a very important role in the life of a person and develop the positive or negative attitude of the person towards life.

Fear of failure ultimately raises the motivation level. But every human has a different attitude or different level towards both above-mentioned factors. Therefore, the wake-up call for these two factors is mandatory sometimes. Especially, this call is very necessary in the case of studies of our younger brothers/ sisters because as a teenager they do not have enough knowledge of benefits of studies so we need to encourage them and tell them the importance of studies on regular intervals.

When we stop asking them, they also develop a careless attitude. But when we use to tell them and guide them about studies, they also develop a positive attitude.

I hope you are well. As the weather is changing please take care of yourself and wear warm clothes so that you do not get cold. We miss you and think of you all the time, especially mother.

Last week your school sent us your result and we were very upset to see your grades. You have always been such a good student which is why you got selected for such a reputed college and your father agreed to send you to the hostel.

As you know that your college fees and hostel dues make up quite a hefty sum and it is not easy for our parents to come up with such a big sum every two months but they are managing because they have very high hopes from you. They want you to be very successful and explore your full potential.

These years are very critical, if you spend your time constructively you will be successful but if you waste this precious time you will regret it in the coming years. Please keep the good company as company affects us a lot more than we realize. Good boys who are focused on their studies and making their future would keep you motivated and guide you in the right direction.

We believe in you and we know that you can do very well if you apply yourself to the task at hand. If there is anything you need, let us know and please keep writing to us as we await your letters. Looking forward to a positive response from your side.

How are you? I am well and settling in the new city. This new post I have been transferred to is very demanding and I hardly get any time to relax. I received my mother’s letter yesterday and came to know that your midterm result has come back and you have not scored very well.

I was very disappointed as you have always been a very motivated student and I did not think I would have to lecture you on the importance of focusing on your education. Time flies, it is only a few months before you have to appear in the medical college entrance exams if you do not perform well in those, you will lose all chances of getting admission to a good medical college which has been your dream since childhood.

You are well aware that merit is very high these days and the competition is very tough. This is the time to give your full attention to your studies and focus all your energy in this direction. If you waste this time, you would regret it later in life.

I am planning to come on vacation next month. Then we will discuss this in detail and try to figure out why you got bad grades and what you can do to improve them. Meanwhile, you can discuss it with Sir [name]. In my college days, I always found him to be an excellent mentor and his guidance really helped me in scoring well. I am sure he will help you out.

Take care of yourself and everyone else at home. If there is any way I can be of help, do not hesitate in asking. I am looking forward to seeing a positive change in your routine and grades.

Dear [Recipients Name],

Hope you are enjoying your college life. I heard the news about your result in part one of the intermediate exams but unfortunately, the result was not the same as it was expected from you. As an elder brother, this is my responsibility to guide you as per my experience.

Gentleman, this world is very cruel and there is no free lunch available here. You won’t find your best friends around you in the future until the time you would not be stable financially or hold any position in life. You cannot prosper in life and hold a high designation till you would be extraordinary in your studies.

Just passing with a low grade does not serve the purpose of the study. Therefore, my brother, you need to work hard to get a high grade in the examination and you have to keep the name of our family high. We all have a lot of expectations from you.

Looking forward to your positive response in the future.

Sincerely,

Ben Wordsworth
