Think Before You Act

This is a proverb that I was familiar with in my childhood when I didn’t know what it meant but gradually I realized its true meaning.

It does not mean that one has to be aware of his actions because it may cause damage to him but it also means that one also has to consider the damage that one does to others.

Last week, the copy of the answer sheet of my friend had been mailed to him. He had requested the copy since he had failed a subject in The University exams. I was shocked when I saw his answer sheet because according to me he deserved atleast 60 to 70% but he got only 19%.
If the invigilator had some brains he would have valuated the paper properly but he had no idea the consequence of his action. What does a student supposed to do when he flunks in a subject he expects to score the highest? Even in the revaluation his marks did not increase which clearly indicates that his answer sheet hadn’t be revaluated at all.
