listen to the sibling comments, they are good advice. Also, think of parents and children and rewards: It's better to reward the child for trying, not for their results (e.g. grades in school). You can positively influence your results with more efforts, but you cannot force it. Thus, you shouldn't judge yourself on the results too harshly. What should count, at least for your state of mind, should be that you tried earnestly. Be proud. Try again if you want to or do something else entirely but don't think too much about it. Life goes on and having the right mind set is all you can give.
