Knowing about yourself means not only that you find what you are good at and what you like,it also means discovering what you are not good at and what you don't like. Both help you to see your aim in life.
Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed an advanced math course,they have actually learned a great deal about themselves. They know they should not become engineers or physical scientist,and that they should not be good at accounting work. So failing can help a student to lead a much happier life he or she draws the right conclusion from the failing. They may then decide on their aim and choose the kind of work they would like to do.
