PM Modi said what was his goal in childhood?

A Kashmiri girl questioned PM Narendra Modi that when you were young, what was the goal of your life? Prime Minister Modi replied and said, there was no goal, just the goal was to live and serve it for the country. Then this girl asked that sir, we start reading, then we fall asleep and if you do so much work, you do not sleep. PM Modi says to this girl, sleeps and see son, sleep is not bad. Right now the science that is saying that no matter how much work is, no matter how stressed but you should sleep for 6 to 7 hours, but it does not mean that the teacher is teaching in class and you are sleeping.

PM Modi gave this lesson to children

Apart from this, a girl told him that Sir, tell me something that we can take off in our life. PM Modi says, when a player plays in the field and people demand fours and sixes, but what the player does … He does not pay attention to that, he does what he has decided. Similarly, you should also decide one thing in life that I have to do this work in life. But then one should focus on it, it should not be that if someone says something, then forget your goal. What has been decided should just be spent in it.
