I feel like I am wasting my effort

Question

A friend of mine cheated on an exam and received a better grade than me while I studied hard and my grade went down. I felt I have wasted my effort when I saw my friend received compliments.

Whether someone sees or not, cheating will eventually wither your life. Keep that in your mind, and do not be swayed by how others live and choose the easy way.

To live a life without regrets, acquire “true strength.”
“Strength” is not about power.
It is a kokoro that adhere to the principles; those who truly believe in and love themselves can express this kokoro.
Young adulthood at the age of Yūki can live with the strong kokoro when they acquire true gratitude and joy.
Notice that this is the true courage and confidence.

The result, the value of life and the loss and gain, sometimes does not appear right away; answers to many things may come to you later in life. However, it is important not to be swayed by how others live, but to adhere to principles. The accumulation of facing and engaging in everything seriously and honestly will elevate your life even if it does not connect to a result right away. Foster your kokoro to a truly strong one and live your life with confidence.

*Yūki – This is a word that Kami hasshown. It points out the unmarried young adult group from the age of 15 to 30.
