Over time we have developed habits to deal with many areas of our lives. What thoughts we think, what we do, how we do it or if we do it are all indicators of our habits. All repetitive activities seem to generate a habit.

The much awaited New Year is here! I want to welcome you to this glorious year. I am sure you have so many expectations for the year and I want to assure you that your expectations will never be cut short.

It is always a norm for everyone to set New Year resolutions at the beginning of each year but the worrisome fact is that we all forget about these resolutions even before the first month ends.
