Difficult Quote by Amaal Mallik

“It's difficult to really assess what I've done right per say, but if I did have to point out, I'd say that I never really looked to have goals that will limit me. When one knows where he is going to or wants to end up, he/she actually doesn't realise that the goal is more limiting, than liberating.” quote by Amaal Mallik
