00:00 Why do you deceive yourself by setting such lofty targets?
00:05 When you mention that target to yourself, when you commit yourself to that target,
00:10 ask yourself, seriously, the one that I am, will I ever reach this? No.
00:15 But we entertain ourselves. We tell ourselves, though I am Ashoka the Great,
00:20 I'll set a target and I'll definitely reach it.
00:22 And it hurts to admit that the target you are setting for yourself is actually beyond you.
00:28 Now, if that really hurts, then you have to change yourself.
00:32 Frankly, most of the targets that we set for ourselves are actually an underestimate
00:40 of our potential. Frankly, we need to set even higher targets.
