The RESET BUTTON to Life

Image
What's happening? Do we have to call it a disaster? A killer? A threat? A teacher no one has ever got? Or a better way of living life? I really cannot believe how something can be so cruel and so good all at the same time. The world is restless now, the economy is crashing, companies which made employees work overtime are now requesting everyone to be at home, families are finally getting some time together. There are no unwanted gathering, no parties, no extravagant weddings, malls and theatres are abandoned, now it's just  one place we can trust, OUR HOME . We have given up our laziness and started walking to nearby places to get our daily needs and food. Finally, we have stopped relying on Swiggy and Ola because it's hard to trust anyone/anything being safe. Adding to it, Indian railways has confessed that they don't wash their blankets after every trip so not to use them (People started speaking the truth 😂). We have started to be very cautious about the...

Dragon Ball!!!

Image
Yes! you heard it right, "Dragon Ball" it is. I have always been an anime fan, and Dragon ball had been my favorite. Ya I agree it's unreal, a fantasy but that's what make up the childhood of many, fantasy creatures and unreal world which gives them the joy and a goal for life, to fly and become a superhero! This blog is just to share my childhood dream TV series with everyone who wants to download them and enjoy.  Just a quick snapshot, if you haven't heard of Dragon Ball TV series: Dragon Ball is the adventures of Goku (hero of the series 😄), a strong money tailed boy who has super powers. Goku accidentally meet Bulma, who is on an adventure to gather the seven wish-granting Dragon Balls (seriously when you join the seven dragon balls a real life dragon comes up and grants you anything you wish for). Goku inherits one of the dragon ball from his grandfather and this makes Bulma to add him to her adventure. And there begins Goku's adventure for t...

OPPOSITES ATTRACT 💖

Image
Let me first clarify one thing before you start reading, this blog has nothing to do with the "Law of Attraction" in Physics. This is about human relationship and wisely selecting your partner for a better and happy future.  Selecting the similar other as relationship partner is extremely common, so common that it could be described as a psychological default. Anything that disrupts the harmony of the relationship such as disagreements, attitude, difference in values and preferences are more unlikely to occur. This directly results in happy relationship with lesser avenues for a fight. Most people play better with the similarities rather than trying to impress the other person with attributes which make them unique. Change is always difficult and unlikely, it's easier to select people who are compatible with your needs and goals from the beginning. However, this might also result in lack of exposure to other ideas, values and perspectives. On the other hand,...

INFLATION 💵

Image
What does inflation in economics mean? Inflation is the rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services is rising and, consequently, the purchasing power of the currency is falling. When you dive deep into this problem you will face terminologies like GDP (Gross Domestic Product), CPI (Consumer Price Index) etc. Forget the jargons, let's get practical. If you have a closer look at the problem, according to Economics, what is the primary cause of increase in the price of products? 2 things, Demand-Pull and Cost-Push. Demand-Pull occurs when the aggregated demand for goods and services rises more rapidly than an economy's productive capacity. A typical example will be the produce, most agricultural produce has a seasonal yield and during the off-season of the produce it's price will be risen because of the scarcity of its availability. Cost-Push , on the other hand, occurs when prices of production process inputs increase. Consider you're a tomato s...

MONEY 💰 & TIME ⏱

Image
Money is a tool that helps you to survive in this world meeting our needs, accumulating stuffs and even accumulating money to get bigger stuffs in future. There are 4 methods to produce money and get a constant cash flow:  being an employee , self-employed person , business owner and investor .  Each method uses different ingredients to get the end product, which is money! Each method is not suited for everyone and majority of the population prefers the easier and safer route.  95% of the overall population prefers either being an Employee or Self-employed . This is the easy route as well as less yielding, maybe 5-10% of the total money generated is from this route. The easier route usually converts TIME (most valuable asset everyone possesses) to MONEY , you get paid for the hours of work done or you spend a regular 8 hours of your time 5 days a week to get paid back with money.  The tougher route demands a lot of homework, pre-work and preparation. On...

MEMORIES 📦 🎟 📺 🗝 📽 🎙

We all have those cardboard boxes  📦  in our attic, under our bed, may be at the bottom of the closet.  Boxes stuffed with stuffs,  your 10 year old self’s birthday gift, an old dress that never fits, old photos we never usually look back often, movies/travel tickets of your past favorite experiences. How often do we check those boxes? probably close to never. We collect these stuffs as a reminder of our special moments, as memories of our glorious days. Memories are part us and doesn't stay in those things! Probably the stuffs trigger our memory of the moment, but its creates a lot of clutter to your current life. This boils down to a materialistic life, where you find joy and memory in things and not in people/emotions. I don't need a baby food feeder to trigger memories of my mom's love, a warm from my mom can do that! Life is full of sentiments and emotions. We live for the people we love and we all have our living, walking, memories of love in f...

CONSUMPTION VS CONSUMERISM 🔺🔻

Consumption is the action of using up a resource. Food, water, a roof on top of your head, the oxygen available in scare all around us among the abundant carbon-dioxide pollution are the basic needs that we consume for our existence.  We basically don’t consume a lot and also can’t. On the other hand, Consumerism is a behavior/ideology that encourages acquisition of goods and services with an increase in cash flow and growth in socioeconomic status. When we start categorizing our requirements they broadly fall into 3, needs , wants and likes . Anything that falls under your basic needs are the things that we consume on a day-to-day basis. Consumerism determines what things fall on your wants and likes list. That’s actually true, you heard it right! We don’t fully determine our wants and likes. They are primarily influenced by our environment. Consider a colleague/friend gets a brand new smartphone and he flaunts its features to everyone around. That instance triggers a stimuli o...
