Do you think You're Amazing ? Think Again !

As we come to the end of the year, it's time to look back at our successes in 2018. And of course failures. Since they are or could be the cornerstones of our successes in 2019.

And while we're at it, it might be a good idea to pause and see if we're becoming victims of our ignorant self-confidence or in some cases our incorrect modesty.

The Dunning-Kruger effect which I learnt about today (And that's not modesty, just a statement of fact on my Ignorance), is a good concept to review and inspect as we look forward to 2019.

I wish each of you a eventful, memorable and happy 2019. Where your dreams become realities.

Whatever dreams you see
And desires your heart has
Let this New Year make them true
This is our Best wishes to You
Happy New Year !
