An Indian took 22 years to break a mountain to make a short cut path from his village getting exposed to the world easily. This man had lot of determination to make it happen. He sold his goats and got hammer and chisel and got going with breaking the mountain despite people calling him mad and his family upset with his intention. He finally makes it and the entire village is happy that there is a easier path to the outside world. Read the rest of the story “Man who moved a mountain” that got published couple of days back in the local newspaper.

While setting objectives and goals requires some thinking and listening to one’s heart, it requires one to work with the determination to achieve it. Everybody’s got 24 hrs in a day but what makes successful people is the ability to keep that vision in mind and be determined to reach there and surpass the difficulties that come by. Without determination there will not be a hold on what needs to be achieved and it could soon be lost in the mind. Time will wait for none to remind and wait for someone to act upon. Lost time can never be recovered. One can earn experience by working in projects. That is what millions of people do. But what is it that differentiates one from that crowd? The answer depends on the interests, goals and objectives and thinking out of the box to do something significant. It requires determination and dedication and continuous effort to reach those goals and objectives.
