Conquering the heights [Did You Fall]

Conquering the heights/Soup for the Soul

Every person has their own battle called their LIFE. Life is nothing less than a battle in itself, no matter whose life it is. We all go through our own sorrows and happiness, we all have those good and bad phases but most of all, we all have that uphill struggle that we got to do to be THE BEST!The heights might scare you!

 SOUP FOR THE SOUL

The battle of being the best is not a new one, it’s been up since man realized his existence.

But most of the times, in the hurry of reaching the heights and in the haste of proving our mark, we forget that we live in a society. We’re no animals but humans and more than any creatures, we need people around us to make our life complete, that’s what friends and family are for!

But unfortunately, the race of reaching the heights makes us blind and we see nothing and no one around us.Then what?!

We surely reach the heights  but when we stand there alone and look down, it scares the hell out

Fear of the Heights

 

Some roads might not cross.

A lot of our decisions depend on what others think or do. We sometimes follow other people or do things that’ll bring us closer to them or that’ll please them.

 

Looking ahead in life, to your future is a very good thought but that should be for our self and not be influenced by other’s presence.

 

If we do something with our life, keeping some other person in our mind and assuming that things might work out as we’ve planned then there’s no bigger fool than us. Future is uncertain and so are people. If today someone is with you, you have no guarantee in life that they’d be with you in the future too. You might assume that maybe one day your roads will cross if you choose one particular path but that might be your illusion.

 

Your roads might seem to be crossing in the future but they won’t actually cross. That’s when you feel cheated by your own self.

So always make the choice by keeping your own future in mind, a future that has a vision of your own life, irrespective of anyone else.

 

Take the right decision, don’t fool yourself.

Female Protagonist. Who is She?

Indian Cinema has dramatically modified its crux in the case of leading roles in the movies. Yes, it all began with Lajja when the discrimination to women was showed in the most sarcastic way, then it flowed consistently with Chameli, Page 3, Chak de India, Highway, Mardaani, Mary Kom, Queen & much more. The critics & viewers adored these movies like anything because every movie with the female protagonist has its fantastic theme to showcase the current trends/cultures/traditions/psyche.

I would surely salute to the directors of these movies who took the risk to make such different concepts movies & made the Indian people aware about the fanciness & streams flowing in our country.

Each protagonist were allotted specific theme based role so as know about that particular genre i.e. Chakde India showed how Indian women can play hockey too & is capable of even winning it, Mary Kom depicted the struggle of a woman but the firm determination lead her to the success.

So it feels good to watch a movie with a purpose than to pass 3 leisure hours in a cinema.

And personally speaking, such genre movies should be filmed more & more to balance the gender discrimination (which is still in many parts of our country) in India.

Women in India are seen as a ’ housewife’ or ‘No Job Doer’ which makes no sense at all as they have their own capabilities, creativities, skills & potentials. They too are ambitious & want to glitter like gold in the modern era.

Women too need idol for their dreams & such movies gives them the ‘Ideal Idol’ to follow (Kind of Role Model). Hats off to the Actress like Priyanka Chopra, Kangana Ranaut, Rani Mukherji, Alia Bhatt. They played their fiction role precisely. They truly describe the original form of the female protagonist.

The short conclusion or brief commentary about this be as “Women & Men were born equal & will die equal so why the intermediate stage is unequal?”

4 Ways to Work Smarter Instead of Harder in 2024

There aren’t enough hours in the day. That’s just a fact, which applies to everyone. You’ll never really get on top of all the things you possibly can do at work, especially if you include meta-tasks like learning more and networking within your industry, and most of us really want to have a little time left over to play, spend time with our family or just watch Netflix.

Everybody gets 24 per day, 168 per week. Why, then, do some people stand out while others work overtime just to keep up? Part of the answer may lie below.

Take Frequent Breaks

Most people, when they think of working really hard, probably have the image of someone hunched over their desk for hours on end, undiverted by Facebook, snacks or even the call of nature. This certainly shows dedication, but does it actually get stuff done?

Very few people are actually able to work this way for more than a few hours while still retaining their focus, creativity, and motivation. If you’re one of these, bravo!Pomodoro technique for sustained concentration and productivity.

Delegate and Automate

Here’s a secret from the world of software development: the smartest, most productive programmers are also usually the laziest. What’s meant by this is that these individuals will be the ones who tend to read the manual for their development environment, look online for tools they can use and frequently find ways of automating tasks that their hard-working colleagues spend hours doing manually.

Even if you’re not a coder, the same principle can be applied to nearly any job. If you’re wasting hours each day making inconsequential phone calls or sifting through irrelevant emails, ask yourself if an assistant can’t free up this time for things that really do require your attention. In much the same way, learning how to use macros and seeing what software you can apply to your daily tasks will keep you from wasting your energy on the trivial.

Communicate More Clearly

“Why is there never time to do something right, but always time to do it over?” complains a certain motivational sign. Really, a lot of us can relate to that sentiment. In the modern workplace, almost nothing can be accomplished solo, and when more than one person is involved, communication failures are bound to occur.

Talking directly yet politely is not a skill everyone possesses naturally, and to make matters worse, we often can’t detect our own lousy communication habits. Consulting a professional has saved more than one career and relationship.

Start from First Principles

This advice was stolen without apologies from Elon Musk. Anyone interested in productivity, technology or how smart people think will almost certainly find a great deal of value in what this pioneer has to say.

The common perception of being productive is to start with a bang and keep going until you’re done. Is this really right? Actually, there’s one step missing in this model: looking, listening and thinking before you plunge ahead.

Firstly, is the task you set for yourself even necessary? Especially in large organizations, the honest answer is often “no.” Is it really part of your job, or is a colleague trying to palm their work off on you? Distracting yourself from your essential tasks is no way to get ahead. Above all, prioritize and decide what outcomes will serve your purpose – if the important stuff is done right, the rest tends to fall into place.
