The art of believing in yourself

This is regarding the story, “The art of believing in yourself” by Syeda Fizza Hussain (YW, November 2). The story highlighted the importance of self-belief and emphasised that having confidence in our abilities not only helps us overcome life’s challenges, but also enables us to leave a lasting impact on the world and in the hearts of others.

To achieve this, we must share our ideas and talents with conviction and with a strong sense of self-belief, so that we can inspire others, create meaningful connections and leave a positive and lasting impact on the world around us.

Tame the math beast

This is concerning the article “Tame the math beast” by Shahmeer Asif (YW, November 30). Being an O Level student, the first part of this article perfectly pictures my morning struggle. From the moment I open my eyes, my mother wastes no time and tells me to hit the books and not waste my time.

The second part of the article states how the writer found maths tough, and since the entire world revolves around this crucial subject, he had to learn to love it. Any student struggling with maths or finding any other subject challenging should read this article. I would like to thank the writer and Young World magazine for providing readers with diverse content.
