Self-development And Success

We are very close to saying a  Goodbye to the year 2019 and Welcome 2020 with new Hopes, new Dreams, new Goals , and many of us with 'new' New Year Resolutions . But the bitter truth is that Most people do not stick to these resolutions for even a week. Very Few are able to stick and make their goals and dreams a reality. WHY DO PEOPLE FAIL? In reality, what you want to do or achieve, or how big it is, is Not the Problem. Lack of Motivation is also Not the Cause.

I noticed it a few years back, when my sister was blessed with a baby boy (Sahas). It was so amazing to see him for the first time. As I was watching him sleeping peacefully, wrapped warmly in a soft and cozy blanket, he suddenly started smiling and giggling, while still sleeping. It was an amazing experience.
