You can’t have it all in 2017.
We began this year with this piece where we discussed Deepika Padukone\’s famous lines from the movie YJHD \”Jitna bhi try karo, life mein kuch na kuch chhutega hi. Toh jahaan hai, uska maza lete hai na\”. It was about overcoming FOMO and enjoying Less is More https://goo.gl/2V9MRL .
