Dr. S. Manikandan presented on achieving success through desire, faith, dreaming, taking responsibility, adopting changes, setting priorities, and learning from failure. Some key points included having either big or small desires to achieve results, having faith in oneself and one's destiny above all else, knowing how and what to dream, taking full responsibility for outcomes rather than blaming others, accepting that change is inevitable and a part of growth, and understanding that failure means trying again harder rather than giving up or feeling disgraced.
