  Holi is a festival where the Hindus celebrate festivals coinciding with the spring season. The season manifests divinity and its expression through plants, shrubs, and trees filled with sweet-smelling flowers. They all proclaim the glory and everlasting beauty of God. The season inspires us with joy, hope, and rejuvenated life. It propels you forward to our inner journey to scout out God- the creator and indweller, who is hiding himself in human hearts and these external manifestations.   Bharat's holy scriptures relate the festival to the various ancient legends."

It is no surprise keeping our resolutions requires our unflinching commitment, laser sharp focus, self-discipline, will power and time management skills to overcome the Daemon called “Habits”.   And surprisingly, the same habits cast their ugly shadow on our planning for retirement. Why should you enroll in a retirement plan or contribute to your 401 (K) plan, 403 (b) plans? We often put the most important decision of our lives on backburners and keep delaying the decisions that can make or mar your retirement lifestyles and unknowingly make our li
