How will history evaluate my tenure?

I am leaving the post of Chief Justice in November after completing my two-year tenure. As my term comes to an end, my mind is filled with questions about the future and fears of the past. I wonder whether I have achieved what I set out to do. How will history judge my tenure, did I succeed in doing something different, what legacy will I leave for future judges and lawyers.
Some questions will never be answered
The CJI further said that the answers to these questions are not in my control and answers to some questions may never be found. All I know is that for two years I have performed my duties as Chief Justice with utmost sincerity. I have tried to give my full contribution in my work and I am satisfied with my utmost dedication towards the country. I wake up every morning and promise myself that I will contribute fully to my work and sleep at night with the satisfaction that I have served the country with full dedication. This is where I look for solace. Since childhood, I was passionate about making a difference in the world and used to work long hours.
Facing fear is important for personal growth
He further said that we forget ourselves in our journey. When we work for a project, we get into it wholeheartedly and fail to enjoy the journey. Because, there is a fear of failure in the mind and it is not easy for anyone to overcome this fear. However, facing and overcoming these fears is important for personal growth.
