Nikhil

My name is Nikhil, and I come from South Africa. I was inspired to write this book as I felt there were important things that needed to be said. In a time when most of us, youth, are being led astray, with some finding success, others forced to accept lesser versions of themselves and those who relinquish their will to carry on by choice. I reached a point in my life where I needed to evaluate whether my dreams were realistic, and whether I was capable of actually achieving them. I wondered if they were some naïve fantasy of mine, but then I remembered that’s how all dreams start out. The only way, I thought, for me to pick myself up, was to hold myself accountable for my actions over the course of my life. I needed to put my life on trial. Only then could I figure out a way to move forward in a systematic way, so as to never return to my failures.
