Once upon a time, there was a student named Max who had an exam in mathematics. Max was worried because he wasn't sure if he'd pass the exam. On the day of the exam, Max opened the question paper and to his surprise, found that all the questions were easy enough for him to answer. He felt confident and began answering the questions one by one.

As he progressed through the paper, he realized that he had made a silly mistake on one of the questions and started to feel nervous. But then he remembered his teacher's words, "if you do your best, that's enough." So Max continued working hard and answered all the questions.

When the results came out, Max was overjoyed to find out that he had passed the exam with flying colors! From that day on, Max never feared mathematics exams again and always did his best, knowing that was enough.

The moral of the story is: Don't be afraid of failing, just do your best and that's enough.
