Do you ever feel disorganized or unclear about achieving your life goals? 

I started thinking about this issue while helping some friends organize their house recently. There was a problem with the moving company that day.   As a result, the movers just unloaded all the possessions in one place and left my friends to put away everything. 

When I first saw the place, a couple days after the movers had been there, the house was overwhelmingly cramped and disorganized.   My friends felt frustrated as they didn’t know where to start on the project to get their place looking like home.  They had an idea of how they wanted the place to look, but had no clue how to implement it.  They didn’t mention anything to me about wanting help, but I volunteered as I have been in that position before and could relate to what they were going through.  We worked together and got the place organized! Success.

I'm so excited that one of my friends, Ruvini Godakandae, who I have known for almost 15 years is sharing her thoughts on perseverance with us today. We have seen each other through many important times in our lives.  She is such a sweet and kindhearted person.  I had to ask her to be involved in this series and I'm so glad she agreed to participate.  Thanks Ru!
