EDITORIAL BOARD

Dear Readers,

The path of success is long, difficult and worthy of appreciation. We all wish for success- to have a successful career, busi-ness and life. But success does not come all of a sudden. It comes only to those who put their earnest efforts along with determi-nation in what they are doing and in what they want to achieve. As we meet different types of people, we find that some people are eager or in a hurry to get success. But one should keep in mind that there is no short cut to success. The path to suc-cess has to be followed sincerely. Only then the blessings of success will be granted.

Thinking of success is not the solution. What is re-quired is an insight to one's own resources, abilities and talents. Dr. Satinder Bir Kaur,
