Everyone in this world works based on their own time zone. People around you might seem ahead of you or some might even seem behind you, but everyone is running their own race in their own time. Do not envy them. So relax. You are not very late, you are not very early, you are on time. Enjoy your own time zone!

– Dr. Indu Shahani

Impact comes from the power of simple intensions. Intension is the bridge that links thoughts to action and makes it possible for actions to land with impact.
