Dear Anika,


I hope this letter finds you and your family in the best of health. I am writing to you to tell you about some simple steps I have recently imbibed to sustain the achievement of my dreams.


I have realised that there can be no shortcut to fulfilling my dream. If I wish to see my dreams materialize, I need to go about working hard in a planned and consistent way to reach my final goal. I need to work through the obstacles in my path and continue on it without stopping. But at the same time, I also need to distinguish between my dream and my greed, and ensure that no one else is sabotaged in my attempt to fulfil my dream.


I wish that you too can find success by following these simple strategies. Hope to meet you soon!


Yours lovingly


Mamta
