Solution
Rucha was overprotective of herself. She never did things rashly. She would be conscious of her movements, even in running and playing. Her friends used to console her and motivate her, whenever she failed in her attempts. She had hesitations, self-doubts and denials in whatever task was done by her. Her RT instructor Mr. Prakash observed these negative qualities in her and advised her to have only positive attitude towards everything. He asked her to believe in herself and don’t ever think of losing, think to win. In the relay race, she put aside all her fears and self doubts about her ability. She just remembered her P.T. Sir’s words and ran fast to the finishing line. She won the race and everyone was excited about this attempt of Rucha. She made it because she overcame her self-doubts.
Your shyness and fear can be overcome by being confident always, trying new things, engaging yourself in talks with others, giving speeches or presentations often, walking with your head high and be aware of what is happening around you.
