Answer and Explanation:
Dear...,
I'm sorry to hear you were not able to perform well for the examination. I can only imagine the way you feel at this moment. I hope you'll soon regain your confidence and excitement. We know you are smart and capable, so there is no reason to let this hurdle bring you down.
You know I have also struggled all my life with anxiety and lack of focus. You were there when I failed exams or missed important appointments due to those issues. I would be worried about the future, or thinking about anything else, instead of truly being present, of simply paying attention. That cost me a lot, as you know.
That is why I feel I must recommend something to you - something that has been helping me a lot. I've told about some of the philosophies I've studying lately. One thing they all seem to have in common is the insistence on living in the present. When we lack focus, when we do not listen properly, when we do things on autopilot, we are missing the present moment. We are either reliving the past or anticipating the future, both of which are not a reality right now.
I believe you would benefit greatly from a few practices. Mindfulness meditation, for instance, can teach you how to focus. It can help you tune out that noise in your head that takes your attention away from what is truly happening at the moment. If you'd like, I can help you get started.
(Friend's name), we only live in the moment. Whatever it is that we are doing deserves our full, undivided attention. If you choose to focus, there is nothing you can't achieve. And I can guarantee life will seem to flow more easily.
Sincerely,
...
