In an article, "Life Coach Abhishek Raj Jain adopts a unique approach to inspire optimism",  Abhishek Raj Jain, talks about motivating his followers to be optimistic and "tells them to set small goals that matter and not chase illusions. He tells them that instead of chasing the limelight they should chase small goals that make the bigger picture. He often quotes this example: “If you wish to climb a mountain, think about walking a kilometre first. When you see small goals, you are automatically optimistic about them because you know you can achieve them. This helps you to achieve that goal and helps you with the motivation to chase the next milestone. Thus, step by step, you climb the mountain.” According to him, it is not difficult to stay positive for smaller goals."
