How Hustling in Your 20s Help You?

A student’s life is so full of a lot of emotions. The fear, the anxiety, the motivation, the spirits, the energy, the enthusiasm and all the uncertainties make it a drama movie. Is it that dramatic? Being a student, I have been at my lows and highs. This month was full of adversities, and I have hit my rock bottom multiple times and redefined rock bottom. I have almost lost the spirit to work, the purpose, and much more. But, there have been learnings like anything in this month.

Throughout this article, I will tell you an easy way to hustle without any worries:

Action Vs. Wishful Thinking Vs. Overthinking

Recently, in our verbal ability class, we were called to talk about our inspirations, which was really enlightening. I didn’t expect the depth and creativity I would get to see there. There was a person who mentioned wishful thinking. Building on that concept, let me tell you there are three things you can do in your life. Either you can act upon a situation and get the work done, think about doing and completing the work or just keep thinking about improbable circumstances. Action is always the best approach. Is wishful thinking (manifesting) helpful? Wishful thinking is a waste of time for the most part. If you keep wishing this task get completed on its own, it won’t. Overthinking is the worst of all of these. The solution to the dilemma and loop of wishful thinking and overthinking is simple. Follow 5-second rule by Mel Robbins.

Good or Bad Momentum

Have you ever slept the whole day and still felt sleepy the other day? Have you ever worked the entire day but kept working the next day? Well, there is momentum: the first law of motion. A person having bad or good momentum helps him/her to get more momentum. It just gets more accessible and easier to work when you have been working. So, when you work a little, you will automatically keep working. To use the Good or Bad Momentum rule, you can start small.

IDGAF!

Monks have unwavering focus. How do they stay calm their whole life merely sitting? Do they control their thoughts? No, they don’t own their thoughts. They just control their urge to multitask. They have specific daily activities that need complete concentration, so they spend time learning to focus and utilize this power of focus in other skills. They say IDGAF to things other than their task. This is all you need. You don’t need to worry about the outcome. Just focus on the task one task at a time. This is all you need to manifest happiness without manifesting anything.

The Purpose

The three points summarized:

  1. Eliminate wishful thinking and act with the 5-second rule.
  2. Create good momentum with atomic habits.
  3. Detach yourself from the results (not goals), and focus on your work.

Love and the other Chemicals

Tethered Reality

I would love to start this with a lot of “Duh, it’s a no-brainer” topics ’cause you know what it is. Well, yeah. It is love. I have been wondering about what it really means quite lately. Being an awake person with a supposed enlightenment about the world doesn’t help with it. In fact, it is the worst way to seek this topic. All I can think of are the scenarios playing in my head. The things that I imagine make me think “been there, done that”. This makes it worse to seek those feelings. Trying to decipher that chemical inside the head is what makes all the effort. Then the simplest questions become a big mess like why is the heart kept at the center of all things? Just because it pumps blood into our bodies makes it worthy of keeping the soul and the whole jest of life? Does it matter if I metaphorically broke your heart? What is heart anyway? Why not call it your feelings, your ego like any normal, underprivileged feeling? Why do we need to hype up our feelings when talking about love? I can go on and on stating these questions just to clear up my mind from the clatter that I keep thinking, but that won’t sell it. So, to make sure you and I both take something out of this article today would be my CTA.

Now that you have gone through the absurdly looking preface with an intentional usage of differentiated vocabulary and sentence structures.

Love can be a universal thing. I was reading an article recently which was about the gas particles released into space and how the vacuum can suck the particles (although the author said not to use “vacuum” and “suck” interchangeably, but here we go) and send them to a voyage. Let’s see the exact words:

“When freed in outer space, each molecule would eventually reach something else to interact, so they could be attracted and retained by some gravity well.”

“In their journey, each molecule would only occasionally interact with some other molecule (likely to be hydrogen) or some other lost particle wandering around.”

If you have read this, you might think about what this has to do with love. First of all, isn’t the journey of each molecule sort of poetic! I feel it makes all the sense. The particles kept in a container collided with each other, generating all sorts of interactions, attractions, and repulsions. Still, when they were forced out of the container into nothingness, the word used to describe them was “lonely.” If that’s a relief, I should tell you that they will keep wandering for billions and trillions of years in the same state.

Doesn’t this voyage of a particle make you gloomy and gets your horses of memory running to portray some old memory full of despair preferably with your “loved ones”?

Love can also be an escape from reality. Sometimes, people don’t realize or notice some of the most evident and straightforward things in life, and they become helpless at times the reality occurs to them. The fact strikes harder than anything else in the world because the world doesn’t seem the same after that. The imagination bubble pops, and you have been pulled by the gravitational force of reality on the ground so hard that it takes the limbs of happiness out of your body. (Seems like a brutal example but it is true) Most of the time this reality of your near and dear or your own. This has happened to me quite often when I came near the brink of my teenage years. The truth still hurts like anything in the world.

The Shape of Growth!

Here’s to the journey that brings out the best in everyone. What I am, what I was and what I will be coincide when you consider how far you have come. In oblivion, I could think about all these periods at once. Climbing the stairs of the roof like a soldier getting out of the bunks, I got an epiphany. The moment of realization where I could feel the throbbing of my heart, the goosebumps in my body, and the shivering of my hands. I sighed,

Have I come too far?

The thought runs down my veins. Suddenly, I recall the days, the months, and the years I have spent thinking about the future. Those moments became past. I think back and I do not find myself there. It is just some guy with assumptions and dreams unaware of what awaits him. He doesn’t exist anymore. Someone else does. A person who has surpassed all the things and broken all the barriers that once felt like a brick wall. I used to live in a bubble in a bubble once. Now it has burst and the world is clear to me. It so happened that I was clear once and I am clear now. The difference is that ignorance is no more there. Is there any ignorance left? Probably not.

Do you feel the earth moving?

The fact that you cannot feel the earth moving underneath your feet is fascinating. Today, I know it is the same with life. The gravity of the daily chores didn’t let me know the movement (or distance). Before I knew I was far away somewhere in space. However much distance I covered, I am still revolving around an axis. All the intended and unintended maneuvers along the way made me who I am or who I wanted to be. The misconstrues were shattered and assumptions met reality. Is the reality ever-changing? Probably not.

Is there no going back?

With the winds bustling through my body, I become conscious of the fact that there is no going back to the old days. It was the future that I awaited but it is the past that I long for now. The things I could have done, said, escaped, left, started and ended are the ones that haunt me. The things that I did led me to this moment. The series of events is worth living. Still, there is a feeling which makes me look back. Does the thought of being alone scare me? Do I love people the same way? Do I want to go back? Do I dream the same? Probably not.

Fake it till you make it?

It was a philosophy to think of myself as the ideal me. I did (a lot). I was on top of the world if I just imagined. I acted like I am the same person I dream about. Now, standing on this roof on a cloudy night with no stars makes me think. Was it worth it? Is it worth it? Will it ever be worth it? Probably not.

The Teenage Limbo

This isn’t the first I had this thought. I kept having these at the peaks of my life. It feels the same but it is completely different. I don’t like to be left alone with myself. It hurts when reality hits hard. The teenage limbo of embracing loneliness is perennial.

  • I haven’t come too far.
  • I can feel the earth moving.
  • Must not fake it till you make it.

Are Webinars Really Scams?!!

Featured

I walked right into this one!

Just attended a webinar of around 3 hours for the first time expecting a boatload of knowledge for starting a drop servicing business (which I didn’t know existed right before I saw a TEMPTING ad on YouTube). Yes, I watch a lot of personal development videos (You got it right, STOP JUDGING now) and I am used to deal with these promising ads of billionaires teaches how to be a billionaire (Hysterical, rich teaching poor to become rich). As tempting as it feels, don’t touch that button. But it wrote FREE Webinar. Besides, free stuff never hurts anyone (DOES IT?!). Well, I didn’t realize it then but now I do. It was a total SCAM.

The Life Changing tips!!

I was ready with my pen and notebook to jot down the sacred valley of knowledge onto that paper. Then, it started and I realized it was pre-recorded (what else could you expect). Remember, I told you I love to watch personal development videos. Well, this turned out to be exactly that. The instructor was tryin’ to invigorate my consciousness by kindling a fire against corporate jobs and talks about taking initiatives (Like I HAVEN’T heard those before).

The Time Dilation!!!

After 2 hours of recurring facts and concepts epiphany, he unfolded his true-self onto me. He wasn’t gonna provide me any secret of his business. The worst part is that this webinar was in a par with a one minute read on Quora (YEAH!!You got me, I am not a fond of READING). And here’s the catch, he was going to give me his world class pitch to lure in customers. As he promoted his course to me, I had to consciously prevent my hand from closing the tab. He swayed me with those three magical words ” MONEY BACK GUARANTEE “. Oh, I still remember that hallmark of authenticity (’30 DAYS MONEY BACK GUARANTEE’ Logo).

The Refund Paradox!!!!

Everybody loves to provide refunds and its tempting for the consumers like me and you. I got to try out one of those. It was an amazing feeling to get money back into your bank account and the best part is to tell the reason why you are asking for refund. You can be as mean as you want while asking for refunds (even the MEANEST PERSON you remember!!!). Although, it feels a bit skeptical when the investment becomes more like 7000 $ and you are (ME) poor. So, I didn’t buy it of course.

Conclusion/Lesson

The webinars are potent. But, they are just being used to promote self businesses recklessly without addressing the need of the person attending it like colleges,companies luring people and promising them for a knowledgeable session. There’s a good thing that people who attend these sessions automatically become self aware and curious which is the need of the hour for the society. On a serious note:

“The first step toward change is awareness. The second step is acceptance.”

Nathaniel Branden

P.S. The quality of the webinars are usually disastrous and irritating (I don’t know why). You have to go by the instructor’s schedule and sign up on different platforms and you usually don’t get the satisfactory amount of knowledge and quality of a seminar also degrades.

Quarantine Binge: The Purge

So, with all this madness going on in the world, I wanted to escape the things happening, so I started to watch the purge. Although, I didn’t know what it was all about and expected it to be a fantastic science fiction movie but I found out that it is a series with a description that spelled-“The U.S. has a night (12 hours) in the year in which every crime is legal even murder- The purge”. I was like whoa that’s great (sinister BTW). So, I opened up the first episode hoping to get some philosophy behind this idea (kill’em all for 12 hours) and I got it but after a lot of build-up of story. There were a lot of protagonists who had different mindsets for this holiday (purge). Almost all the people have security systems and guns ( I love them!!) with them. Some people have a urge to purge (yes!!! they referenced it very often) others and some wants to be purged.

The idea behind this concept is that the crime will be close to zero in U.S. for the whole year except the purge night so that the crime could be shown as minimal. Also, there was an agency NFFA (National Founding Fathers Agency) which acts like a government and prevails the ideas of purging by cleaning the depressed and liable people out by purging them. It’s not that there are no rules or anyone could be killed. The ranking officers and politicians are immune to it (exactly, you guessed it). They say that purging heals people’s souls. Now, you must be wondering how did this night originate. Well, the politicians convinced people to sign this particular petition by ensuring their safety. All sorts of mayhem was possible. People started to make rituals for this night, made it a festival. All the twisted people go out and purge others believing that this could make their souls heal but it made it worse, made them murderers and criminals. The worse of the people comes out on that night People kill others over some grudges.

Here is the metaphor behind all this mayhem. Why to invent this kind of day- to blow the steam off (probably). This is the symbol of relationships and brings out the worst of the people.

this idea is as absurd as having rules in a war. Why even have a war when you have ethics in it. I do not recommend you watching this series as it is a very strong one and the perspectives of the protagonists sometimes feel real. I have a kind of a mentality or view that everything we watch, like movies,series,etc, affects you drastically and changes what you are.

That’s all.

Learning How To Learn Anything

The life begins with us learning how to talk, learning how to walk and some other basic activities. The proper method of learning things is not specified to us in the schools or by our parents and even if our parents and teachers tell us that you have to memorize something, they usually provide us with methods like repetition and rot learning which is less productive and obsolete. We all know how much learning is necessary to all of us in our life. We all struggle in learning things, especially in schools because we are never told the art of learning which I consider the basic step towards schooling and life. “Better be late than never”. So, let me provide you some of the basics of learning that I learnt from an awesome course on learning which is available on coursera named “Learning How to Learn: Powerful mental tools to help you master tough subjects” offered by McMaster University and University of California San Diego by amazing instructors Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski.

Here we go on the voyage of learning:

1. The lesson of brain modes

Using Learning Modes to Learn Faster - Jordan Christley - Medium

First of all, we need to learn that brain works in two modes namely focused mode and diffused mode. Focused mode is necessary for deep work like solving problems through a method and just uses the fixed neural pathways so we sometimes experience Einstellung (stuck at something). Einstellung refers to a person’s predisposition to solve a given problem in a specific manner even though better or more appropriate methods of solving the problem exist. This happens because the focused mode work does not explore every neuron but works on targeted ones. To solve this, one should take his/her focus out from there. By doing this, one allows the diffused mode of brain to kick in which randomly goes through neurons and could help in solving the problem next time you try to solve it. Diffused mode can be induced through sleep and relaxation. It really works and also makes you more creative. Most of the scientists had their ways of using diffused and focused mode simultaneously.

2. Practice Makes Permanent ?!

It was always told to us that practicing things will fit them into your hipppocampus (brain) and you’ll remember things. Well, that has a technique too. Memorizing has a lot of techniques like spaced repetition, chunking and recalling which are the most effective ones.

spaced repetition– You don’t need to learn everything up in one day. The memory experts say that we should use the concept of spaced repetition to stick a thing into our mind in which we should revise the thing we want to memorize after one day then after two days then three days and so on (see, the name suggests-spaced repetition). This is scientifically proven to get things inside your long-term memory (A storage house for the brain).

recalling- The people, especially students read things from their notes and see it again to make sure they remember it. They think that they have learnt the thing but in actual world, they have experienced a phenomenon called illusion of competence( Misunderstanding that they have learnt the concept). Now, to prevent this situation, experts suggest recalling i.e. to try and memorize the concept you just read without onlooking the notes or the material from which you have just read. Then, check what the real content was if you had doubts.

K12 Aspire on Twitter: "To memorize lengthy topics easily, always ...

Chunking-

They are several steps to the chunking process. It’s totally simple:

  1. Break larger amounts of information into smaller units.
  2. Identify similarities or patterns. (especially in understanding based concepts and related concepts, it really helps.)
  3. Organize the information.
  4. Group information into manageable units.

EXCESSIVE HIGHLIGHTING MAKE LEARNING POOR. (DON’T HIGHLIGHT EVERYTHING)

Test Yourself– Testing yourself in real-like test conditions makes you used to it. Whatever examination you’re undertaking, just test yourself. If you have studied a topic, test yourself on topic-wise tests. Studies show that ” One hour of studying is less productive than one hour of undertaking a test”

3. Procrastination and Memory

Procrastination has become normal for most of our lives and is as harmful as small doses of arsenic which slowly degrades the body. The procrastination is the habit of delaying the important work for an unknown time for immediate pleasures. It has become a habit to procrastinate and every bad habit has four elements or stages in it.


  1. The Cue– The thing, location, time and condition which urges you do what you are habitual to do. (trigger stimulus)
  2. The Routine– The plan/ritual that you follow after getting tempted by the urge For e.g. A smoker smokes at a certain time (cue). So, smoking is the routine.
  3. The reward– Every thing that pleasures you immediately makes your body release dopamine (the feel good hormone).

Read this book for understanding the habits. ‘The Power Of Habit:Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business’ by ‘Charles Duhigg’ https://www.amazon.com/Power-Habit-What-Life-Business/dp/081298160X

So, all you need to do is break the habit and for doing this, you must take away the cue which triggers your routine through will power. Will power is a valuable asset which should be used just to take away the temptation. If you have a bad habit of using your smartphones to kill time then you must put in airplane mode at night so that no notifications (the cue) may tempt you to use it. In this way you can break a bad habit.

4.The fun way to learn things (Memory Palace Techniques)

Learning memory palace technique
https://www.wikihow.com/Build-a-Memory-Palace

We humans were hunters in the ancient times so we had to be very good with locations and we remember images and stories( our ancestors used to share stories of survival techniques at night) better than words. We remember things that are somewhat logical, unusual (weird). So, the memory experts learn things with techniques like metaphor, analogy, storytelling and visualization.

1.Metaphor: By describing a whole theory by a small word, you can easily relate a complex idea to a word only. This is based on the fact that our brain is good with material things rather than abstract (except emotions) things like formulas and equations. You can also make acronyms to learn stuff.

BENZENE MONKEY

for e.g. Look at the benzene monkey above, it is so weird but is related to a material thing monkey (quite memorable).

What is an Analogy? - Twinkl Teaching Wiki

2. Analogy: Relating area of study to your favorite area, so you can remember complex theories. This increases the understanding of concepts and their application. (relating and learning)

Persuasive Storytelling with Data Visualization | Blast Analytics Blog
https://www.magneticmemorymethod.com/memory-palace-examples/

3.Storytelling/Visualization: Associating study with your favorite cartoon characters, movies, songs and places. Making story and associating with study material. Even open your mind warehouse and scatter the things you want to learn at a place like your home or school and try walking over that memory palace. For e.g.  You can relate famous flight of Wright brothers with your 1st bike journey. There can be scope of lot of creativity to making association.

5. The Pomodoro Technique

Pomodoro Mobile App by Andy Burkovetsky on Dribbble

This is a very effective technique that let us ignore the pain that we experience on thinking about doing a boring work. Each time you apply this technique, you are having one Pomodoro cycle.It beats procrastination just through small expenditure of will power. It has two steps:-

  1. Set a timer ( generally of 25 minutes) to work without distractions (traditionally on chair) and when the timer goes off, take a break of 5 minutes.
  2. Remember to reward yourself with anything you like (say your favorite cookie) in each Pomodoro cycle. (best way to retain good habits through reward and routine)

You should undergo at least two Pomodoro cycles simultaneously and increase them as you excel in doing so upto your retention limit.

6. Hard -Start Jump-To-Easy(The Test Tips)

Online exam, checklist and pencil, taking test, choosing answer ...

Finally, the test is the only thing people are learning for( Maybe!!). So, why not learn how to learn for a test. I have experienced that whether you’re moderately prepared for the exam, you have nailed the course or you haven’t read even a singe word, the night before the exam, you will feel an immense pressure and pain as if that’s the only thing you ever lived for.

Let me tell you, there is a test checklist made by Dr. Fedler ( a professor) for engineering students and works for all students. (Remember this is just to be absolutely sure, not mandatory that without these you cannot score and be confident). Link to the Dr. Fedler’s checklist: http://www.learnlikea.ninja/blog/2018/03/22/richard-felder-study-checklist/

Now, next problem is the method to use during the exam (where to start), some say start from hard questions or start from easy questions. Expert neurologist Barbara Oakley suggests that we should use Hard -Start Jump-To-Easy method.

Firstly, go through every question in the exam paper so that it your diffused mode of brain could work on it in the background. Then, start from the hard questions and if you get stuck on the question, jump to the easy questions so that the brain could could think of an alternate way for that question in the background. (Tip:- Blink your eye for some seconds then try out the question because its hard to identify the error in our own techniques)

At the end, Don’t worry, be confident and an exam is just an opportunity to prove your worth not your life.

7. The Planner Journal

Bullet Journal Addict - 24 Bullet Journal Key & Index Ideas

Either you run the day or the day runs you

Jim Rohn

It is true that for most of the things that we do in a day are habits which we do unconsciously. Hence, it is important to plan the day so that you are the one having control of the day.

The steps in making a plan ( A goal without a plan is just a wish):-

  1. Write the tasks an evening before the day.
  2. “Eat your frogs in the morning”– It is advised to do all the hectic and boring work in the morning. THE IDEAS ARE FROM THIS BOOK :’Eat That Frog’ by ‘Brian Tracy’-https://www.amazon.com/Eat-That-Frog-Twenty-one-Procrastinating/dp/0792754840
  3. Make weekly list of key tasks.
  4. It’s important to have a goal finish time as it is important to plan your day.
  5. Mix tasks (don’t do one task for prolonged time).
  6. You can write reviews for yourself like what you should have added or done correctly.

Seek purpose rather than pleasure.

Quarantined Days:How To Stay Motivated

The world is undergoing changes never seen before due to this crisis. Isn’t this what we all have asked again and again? I’m sure that you would’ve prayed to attain time for what you really want to do or learn. It could be a sport, a skill or something else. Let me tell you, I regularly vow to myself that I’ll do this(and that) whenever I’ll get time but it never happened. It isn’t that I have never got the time but I always wasted it. Why? Because I didn’t have motivation to do so and the distractions were much more tempting than my motive (Now,that’s weird). I’m sure it has definitely happened with each person living in this era so we need to be persistent and maintain perseverance toward our goals to the path of success (as you know it). So, there must be some ways to self-motivate yourself because most of the external sources of motivation just give you a momentary charge which isn’t enough. Let’s explore some tips to efficient self-motivation:

1. Start with what you have

The foundation determines how the house will look and how long it will last.To stay motivated, you should take note of the things you have. A trickle can become a flood, and small things become large. Begin with what and where you are. Make the best out of whatever circumstance you are in.

2. Set clear goals

To get to your destination, you have to create milestones. This would help you know you are still on track to reaching your endgame/goal. Do not try to do too much at once nor despair if you find that one goal keeps feeling unattainable.

In such situation, keep working and enjoy the process. To aid this, search for knowledge on how to get past each milestone. You can do this by reading books, surfing the internet and seeking your mentors. Let your goals be clear, let them be achievable ones and you would not find it hard to motivate yourself to keep going.

3. Seek knowledge

You are able to motivate and stay motivated when you understand/know what you are doing or trying to achieve. Loss of motivation is usually tied to being stumped or feeling like you have lost the plot. To counter this, make sure you know as much as you can about what you seek to attain.

Even if what you want to achieve is groundbreaking, you have to start off from what you know before delving to the not-yet-known. Read, ask questions of those who have done it before, write your observations and find what is the thing that will help you motivate yourself.

4. Create the work environment

A cluttered workspace can negatively affect your mood and desire to work. Much as there are people who thrive in cluttered workspaces, there are more the exceptions than the norm. let your workspace contain things that would keep you going. You can have to-do notes posted, place it by the window so that you can have a good view when you are taking a break, have books, etc. Let your workspace reflect you and help you. Follow the things that are related to your goals.

5. Think Positive, Be Positive

Positive self-talk will help in keeping your energy level up. Build yourself up with positive words. This is called self-imaging. Master your fear and let it spur you on. Courage is not the absence of fear, it is mastery of it. Overcoming a fear  and then succeeding is very morale-boosting, so seek it. For example: I have an aversion towards exercising so I have to overcome it and when I do, the selfmotivation originates itself. It is alright to fall, just make sure you pick yourself up each time you do.

6. Seek The Silver Lining

(Silver lining it is a metaphor for optimism in the common English-language which means negative occurrence may have a positive aspect to it.)

If you see or look for the silver lining in all situations, you will have an easier time coming to terms with disappointments. This will, in turn, help you get and stay motivated. This will, in turn, help you get and stay motivated. As this famous saying goes ”Every coin has two sides’, so try to look at the brighter side.

7. People are contagious

You must have heard/observed that laughter is contagious. Similarly, a lot of human attitudes and feelings are contagious. So, to stay motivated, we should be with motivated and positive people and always look forward to the things that are related to your goals because what you genuinely seek is what you become.

8. Be passionate

Sometimes, we come across situations when we lose confidence in our ability to pull through and we change our goals/aim It isn’t the ability that you are lacking, it is the motivation. You want/desire/need/aim it, you get it. It is just as simple as that but you need to be passionate about your goal and you will every necessary thing to achieve your goal, then you deserve it. It gives the conclusion that you should stick to our goal(constantly updating).

9. The Realization

Lastly, motivation comes from the motive. It must be important to know the motive first to be motivated. Therefore, realizing your motive/purpose is the indispensable part in the process of reaching self-motivation. You should think about what you really want to do and what are the factors preventing you from doing that particular thing.Introspect and imagine the results pursuing your goal. Be true to your goal.

The Observation #1:Media In Quarantine Days

In the recent days, a lot is happening and a lot has already occurred with so many of the deaths and the changes in our lifestyle. The lockdown and the spread of Novel COVID_19 has affected the economy, stock markets, trade,etc. It has drastic effects on daily lives of the common people as all the plans of the people(including me) of the world has been stagnated to dodge the pandemic situation. The world has exhorted the overuse of the limited resources to be safe at one place.People are tensed regarding the future of community and the humanity so they watch news to stay up-to-date with the threat lurking around us.Usually I don’t watch news unless it is impeccable because it provides weird vibes. The news nowadays isn’t just informing people what’s happening around them but to impose an indelible imprint sneakily. Although, the news channels can kindle a fire against injustice,form the fifth pillar of democracy and direct people towards good but I think it does more harm than good. It changes the mentality of people and make them judgmental. I have seen it myself. They behave as I KNOW ALL (IKA) EXPERTS and convince the world that what they believe is true. The news debates are hell of an entertainment for people. These sort of debates are heated debates usually occurring between two political party associates. you may notice something extremely unusual in them. The media person is less like a coordinator and more like a ringmaster to the people debating. He/She is really bossy and everyone has agree to his point of view and match his/her pace to be on the show. It doesn’t matter how much respected you are, however high your post is ,you listen that media person or you are so screwed in front of the entire world. If you’re a person fond of talking,expressing your views and doesn’t know when to end a speech or discussion and want to take part in such debates, be cautious and patient or you will be vanquished for this.

Well, I observed it today while I was hoping for a good news like the release of vaccine is COVID-19, I saw an unnecessary debate with two prominent political parties(you may have guessed it) on a renowned news channel,one party leader was criticizing the actions of the ruler party when he was asked what should people do. Now, let me tell you what was wrong about it. The political leaders don’t need to be educated enough. Secondly, how in the hell does he know? So,the media anchor relegated him to a great extent.It was hilarious to watch the political activist getting down. Also, they interview people and groups of people gather around them which is practically more contagious. I think that this has to be changed. Happy quarantine days.

Note: It was not a criticism, it was an point of view, an observation and a hilarious one.

The Twisted World

I recently got struck by this weird idea of how much worse or interesting this situation would have been if this was a different era(say 1900s), we wouldn’t have had much of these technologies required to tackle this COVID-19. We all could be dead meat by now. It would be an interesting scenario. It would resemble most of the Sci-fi movies and series like THE WALKING DEAD and 12 Monkeys.Most of the population(in billions) would be gone and the ones immune would be random people. Like all sorts of people. Trust me it won’t be a good idea to be alive in that world. The people will kill over canned beans,for resources and even for nothing because the world would be a twisted place.
