‘Dream Big’

29th June, 2022 Excuses make today easy, but tomorrow harder. Discipline makes today hard, but tomorrow easier. The choice is always yours. Rudyard Kipling,”We have forty million reasons for failure, but not a single excuse.” Successful people don’t make excuses, they create results and no great life was built on a foundation of excuses. So […]
The 5 Monkeys
28th June, 2022 Whenever I come across old customs, traditions and beliefs hindering change, Iam reminded of an actual experiment conducted in the U.K. more than 50 years back.
