Best Outgoing student Success is not the destination that we reach. Success is the quality of our journey. The quality of the journey depends upon the goals we set and the mentors we choose. The quality of the mentor lies in appreciating even the smallest efforts as appreciation is the only tool which enables us to build the impossible. Mankind’s greatest achievements have come about by constant encouragement. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future if our efforts are recognized. With this the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is to appreciate and encourage the young minds as most achievers are people who have made a strong and deep dedication to pursue a particular goal.
