"In the end, all of you in the physical world are tested. Your world is a test, and your experiences, the events of your lives, are your own custom-designed personal exams. How do you measure up? Do you think mostly of yourself, or do you seize opportunities to help others? These comments should help you evaluate your own performance. We do try to help along those who make right decisions. I don’t mean that they become the richest, but they do find the greatest satisfactions, and they tend to achieve that elusive sense of inner serenity that you all yearn for."
One of the keys to pass the test is to make the right choice. Basically, the right choice is made when we can put benefit of others before ours.
We should be kinder and more considerate to others especially during good and happy times. For when all things proceed as we hope for, we are tested too. People tend to think that this is a matter of course and it's absolutely unnecessary to trouble to mention it afresh. Actually, this is much easier said than done.
If we are indulged in our own success and bliss and take it for granted, thinking that our efforts and hard work were only rewarded, not grateful to others who have helped us, or totally indifferent to those who are less fortunate or in trouble, we will end up failing the exam.
