i laud your effort dear, brevity which is the linchpin of precis writing is found in your extract, BUT one piece of advice i would like to give you:
before attempting a question in Composition, we must know what the objectives of examiner are, so that we incorporate the desired things...for example the objective of precis writing is to evaluate te ability of the candidate to handle and understand difficult writings of philosophers or other difficult English expressions etc not the ability of using difficult and high sounding words or overall knowledge of English as language...so you must remain watchful about your word selection...use simple plain words and you will get the well job done insha Allah.....overall your effort is highly commendable and i have strong feelings you would thrive in competitive exam surely God Willing...

First of all you need to study Saadat Ali,s book for grammar. Secondly, A.B Jasra is a good book in which precis' of past papers have been solved, it would give you better idea how to write and manage precis. Third, after going through these books you must make precis of Editorial of dawn on daily basis. It would overcome your precis problem and phobia.

Default self done is well done

It is risky to depend upon other.Other may not know what you want,what you feel,what you believe.When you do things yourself you gain confidence.Confidence is the key to success.A man who has confidence can do anything,but a man who lacks confidence cannot do anything.It is through practice that man reaches perfection.People are reluctant to begin some job.They feel afraid of it.But when you start attempting it you feel that it was not so difficult.'God helps Those who Help Themselves'.The impossible is only untried.Once you make an attempt things become easier. A child can hold the hand of his father and walk but he cannot hold his father's hand all his life.Crutches are needed those people who are invalid but those who are healthy do not need help.All men have almost similar capabilities,those who utilize them,they succeed and those who avoid them,they fail.An arm that is not used for a long time is paralyzed.One should always be active.Right or wrong is not important effort is important because what is right or what is wrong ,one knows only after attempting it.It is through action that you can judge your efforts.Shakespeare said,'Preparedness is all.Rest is not our business'. It means man can only strive result lies with destiny,chance and GOD.
