The HBS 2023 winners share their experience and challenges to boost the morale of new artists
Winning is not always the goal, participate and give your best. With this motto, the HBS 2023 winners give their best wishes and share their success mantra to the HBS 2024 participants to calm down their anxiety and make them focus on the upcoming event.
Any competition whether it is an exam or a challenge in life, Never Lose Hope. Keep working diligently. Your diligence will make you a winner in any competition you participate in. Focus unaffectedly more on your practice after each failure and eventually the failure will turn into victory. For instance, I am a make-up artist and I do make-up. Before the competition, I feel it is an easy task for me as I am accustomed to it with my routine practices. However, I find a world of difference between my daily practice and the competition since a person has to contribute his best in the competition so keep practicing because ‘Practice makes one perfect’.
When you participate in a competition you realize your abilities. You perform to the best of your competence, learn in abundance not only from others but also educate yourself. By participating in shows, you find an opportunity to meet new talents and share your own experience and learn from others. Participation will make you the master of your skill and strengthen your business as well.
