Why do I make mistakes when I'm over excited or over stressed?

[Brian___1731]

How do I stop making mistakes when I'm excited or stressed? Does it have something to do with my concentration? How do I cure this?
(PS:I knew the answers to all the questions to a quiz and I made mistakes, some because I didn't recheck, and some because I was stressed about the time limit.)

Whenever something stressful happens in your life, don't run away from it. Meet it head on. This will train your mind to handle stress better.

That's a good idea. Maybe I should take more risks and work on my focus

Yes but also consider the long term of every decision. Don't do things that are good in the short term but bad in the long term. Try to do things where the long term result will be good even if the short term hurts/isn't fun. Your life will turn out much better.

Wow, that's a nice thought

You are distracted

Probably that's the case
