I have an ambition in my life i.e to serve the people with selflessness. I am trying to achieve this goal for the past several years. I have tried my level best to venture into this. But, I think the material things like family, childrens, relatives, money matters etc. are stopping me from achieving my goal. However I involved in these material things, the thought of my goal is not leaving me. What I have to do?

One must remember that you will not be allowed to interfere with lessons others must learn. Sometimes helping will prevent the lesson. Relax, never let this bother you. Give love and kindness to everyone you meet. Help those you can and encourage those you can't. If your value of material things gets in the way, you do not yet understand that it's the spiritual things that carry the most value. Until you learn this and choose this, you will always struggle.

When you work, try not to think about these things. However, this obviously affects your work. Try to be yourself.To tell you the objective always justify their funds. In settle Consider soberly over the situation and then take the right decision. A little rest and relaxation and will succeed. Good luck.

Life is always a question of balance. If you give selflessly all the time, there's nothing left for yourself and you'll feel like you no longer exist, except in your actions to help others. It's impossible to leave all material things behind: we need food, we need contact and (unfortunately) we need at least a bit of money. Rather than setting yourself an unachievable goal of perfection, set yourself achievable targets - give a percentage of your time to help others, for example. But make sure you keep a little for yourself and your family or you'll become a ghost of the person you were... and then you won't be able to help anyone.
