I was talking to my sister and best friend two days back and telling them all about my goals or to-do lists and my best friend said, “Prachi di, have you added some chill time in your goals too? Your goals sound too much, even to hear about!“ We laughed it off that day, butContinue reading “2021 Goals – Reading and Life – Keeping it Simple”
