A group of frogs were traveling through the forest when two of them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep the pit was, they told the two frogs that there was no hope left for them. However, the two frogs ignored their comrades and proceeded to try to jump out of the pit. However, despite their efforts, the group of frogs at the top of the pit were still saying that they should just give up as they’d never make it out. Eventually, one of the frogs took heed of what the others were saying and he gave up, jumping even deeper to his death. The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the group of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and to just die. He ignored them, and jumped even harder and finally made it out.

He did what they had said was impossible. His body did what they sa...

True Story? Not Sure. But the story goes that in 1963, some behavioral scientists performed an experiment with the graduating class of Harvard Business School. They asked the students if they had written down goals for themselves. Their goals for life. For the future. On paper. A mere 3 percent of the class had actually written down goals. Yes. Just 3 percent. Well, twenty-five years later, the scientists again got in touch with the class of '63. To find out how they had done in their careers. And in their lives. And Guess what? They Found that the net worth of the 3 percent if the class that had written down goals was MORE than the net worth of the rest of that batch. Not just that; the 3 percent written-down-goalwallahs seem to be happier, doing what they wanted and leading far more fulfilling lives. Incredible. But, I believe, it's true. And it could be true for all of us. What are your goals? What do you want to achieve? What do you want to be, have, do...
