Happy Realization !!

It was the first day after the summer vacations and I was having a talk with a group of children at the center where I teach. I was talking to them the about their "goals" for the next academic year. And as I was talking, I realized something common between us. 

We knew about our goals, we knew what we wanted, we had a desire to achieve, we knew what was required to achieve it, but we didn't have a plan - A well defined approach to achieve our goals. 

Understanding what is required of us to achieve the goal is important but equally important is deciding how are we going to strive to achieve it and to constantly remind ourselves of our commitment we make to ourselves to achieve our goal.

I looked back at my life and realized that whatever I achieved is because I liked doing it..I really wanted it..I was willing to put in my best for it..and I had a proper approach to achieve it.

Just that I didn't realize it all this time, but now its crystal clear.
