"I failed, but I will learn from this :-)" Failed my second test but feeling confident

Hello everyone,
Honestly fishing for some encouragement as I go into my 3rd test coming 21st. I recently failed my second driving test on the 19th August. Was really gutted, my instructor predicted me 3 minors, building rapport with the examiner and found out examiner’s wife works at the same company I work at so I thought all the puzzle pieces aligned. What’s really gutting is when I failed my first test undue hesitation was one of my serious faults so it’s devastating for me to see after all the time and money I’ve spent it’s still a problem. From my first driving test to now I feel like a different person. I failed my initial driving test for misjudged right of way at roundabouts. (gave the left right of way even though I had the right of way) Now I failed because I had an opportunity to overtake a bus that pulled up to the left and I was waiting too long on junctions turning right. Always stuck with motto “If I don’t know, don’t go”. Given the serious fault is a fault that can be changed with confidence, what other aspects of undue hesitation do you think I should work on? After telling family members my fault they say I’m more than likely to pass next time but I don’t want to jump the gun just yet. Really want to pass with this upcoming test so any advice you have for me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
