Chutzpah

Daring and self belief. Feeling really funky about something and there fore not stressing about it. Chutzpah is not just a feeling but a way of life. It’s about feeling audacious and having courage in yourself.
Go into the exam with chutzpah and even if you don’t know anything you’ll do okay.
