[Book Review] “Exam Warriors” By Narendra Modi

• Our prime minister Narendra Modi has given great mantras for students of our country, to not worry about exams take it as festivals, and celebrate them, also he further says that exams test your current preparation, not you regarding that particular subject.   
• He says that “Be a warrior, not a worrior”, he sarcastically explains that worried students, anxious teachers, and strict parents should not be the symbol of exams, also he says to be calm and compete with yourself, as competing with yourself makes you a better person rather than competing with others. He makes emphasis on acquiring knowledge that will improve your skills and make you capable for any job.
• The book also explains the importance of sleep, that sleep is very important for students so embrace it. Research showed that proper 8-hour sleep has proven best for excellent performance at examinations. So that is why, take proper rest and sleep.
• During exam preparations, revision has its own importance when you revise things that you had studied earlier it gets etched in your mind like we apply a stone on the concrete again and again. PM Modi also emphasizes the use of technology, he says,” Technology is a great teacher”, so, use it very effectively. Trusting your own abilities and strengths can do miracles. 
• The next mantra he gives is “time management” so time management is nothing but proper discipline and pressure management so discipline means what i get – 1. Do your work on your own. 2. And at a particular time every day. 

That’s how it will become your habit and you become disciplined. Pressure management is not to think all the things at the same time so that is how you will not be worried and never be in pressure. So, that is how you will manage pressure.

• For performing well in exams Modi ji has given more mantras which i am stating to you– 1. Choose your own style on answer sheets. 2. Divide time between questions. 3. Never cheat, for this he says- “To cheat is to be cheap” 4. Presentation matters in exams– like how you present your handwriting, highlight or underline things, etc. 
• He also explains through his book that “India is incredible– travel and explore”, so as you all know that India has many places to visit from temples to other ancient monuments, from various lakes to mountain places to visit and have fun.  
• He also states the importance of meditation and yoga– practicing meditation and yoga, especially Surya Namaskar helps in transforming you as a person by filling you with more positivity and peace. For younger children, he suggests playing and having fun in their life but in my opinion, it is not restricted to smaller children older children can also play outdoor games, i mean why not..!
