Its only up to me! 

I was hoping to play some games in the first session at SOIL, but surprisingly landed in an insightful example.

Snehal Ma’am shared a story about a young man who wanted to get his Ph.D. in two and half years from Carnegie Mellon, US which undoubtedly looked impossible for many. His original idea and focus was on successful completion of his research programme within stipulated time, but within a year he started losing interest and thought to quit. One day he realised that before quitting this research let him “actually” give his final and complete shot. So, he noted down a date which was one and half years later.

Thereafter, he allowed himself to do things that homologize with his passion for finance management. This change in his mindset and passionate thinking from that very day allowed him to shift his focus to live and enjoy every moment. And this resulted in acquiring his degree 10 days before the planned date. 

Highs: Thanks to Prashant Agarwal for sending some beautiful and implementable quotes. One of them that goes along is “We promise according to our hopes and perform according to our fears.”
