Selfie Stick

                             

              We are living in the final session of 21st centuary. Technology is rushing like light and it also changed the lifestyles of peoples. Recently a small photographic equipment which is called "Selfie Stick" becomes one of the most popular discovery in the whole world.

                      A selfie is a self portrait photograph typically taken with a hand-held digital cameras or camera phone. Selfies are often shared on social networking services such as Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. A selfie stick is a  monopod used to take selfie photographs by positioning a small smartphone or camera beyond the normal range of the arm. The metal stick are typically exstensible, with handle on one end and an adjustable clamp on the other end to hold a phone in place.

                      The CEO of online Australian electronics retailer Kogan.com launched a "Zuckerberg Selfie Stick'' in 2013. The product was listed in time magazine's 25 best inventions of 2014.

Distinctly Indian App

News, opinions, magazines and much more. And above all, Indian. We are talking about the all in one app 'Plash'. Developed by Plash Digital Laboratories, its the ultimate spot for information seekers. What it does is that, it gathers info from different sources and combines them into an integrated whole in the app. In a way it does the sorting and assembling of data we want. Job done!.

There are lots of sections in the app itself ranging from News, Technology  to Arts & Culture, Life Hacks etc. And the part which I like most, it lets you read magazines for free. Yeah absolutely free!!
How cool is that??  India Today, Outlook, Men's Health and the like are some of the magazines listed.

Plash has grown into an information hub. Its somewhat similar to the Flip board but has a distinct flavor and allows you to do more. Barring a slightly  slow speed everything is super cool about the app. It does consume some data but its nothing compared to what it offers. People who want to know more, especially the students can make a lot out of it.

Hats off to the developers for doing such a great job and its available in Google Play as well as  the App store. Do try it. The caption of the app 'Distinctly Indian' says it all

Have a look please…


                    
.  Let go the assumption that the world is against you, or that you were born with a gray cloud over    your head
.  Understand that the past does not equal the future
.See yourself as a cause not an effect
. Use positive affirmatives
. Remember that life is short

Speak five lines to yourself every morning
.  Anything is possible
.  My circumstances do not create me, I create my circumstances
.  The only thing I can control is my attitude towards life
. I always have a choice
.  I choose to live my positive side of life

Tip
Do not worry about the past or future, Remember that the past is history, future is mystery, and today is a gift….. And that is why it’s called present.

Warning
Realise that it’s not about what happens to you, it’s about how you react to what happens.

Past is your experience
Present is your experiment
Future is your expectation


Use your experience in your experiments to get your expectations.

Start Believing In Yourselves; Today Itself!

"Can I do it really?'', ''Will I fail in that task?''. These are questions that have pervaded our mind at some point of time. Often, it comes out of lack of self belief. If you don't trust yourselves in what you do, you will finally end up doing nothing.

Fear of lack of suitable information makes us hesitant in doing many things. But let me tell you, nobody out there has got the 'complete knowledge' on anything. Self believing people back themselves in what they do and get the job done. In this globalised world a vast sum of knowledge is easily available and you can consume it your needs. If you try to know more, you will feel the urge to do more, making you more enriched.

Ducking the responsibilities won't do any good, but taking them on will. You got to believe in yourselves in what you do, whether its taking a big responsibility or doing something you have never done before.

If you can't trust yourself, then whom can you? The answer: Nobody. I don't mean to say that you should everything on your own without asking other's opinions. Seeking opinion from others can help throw more light and experience into what we do, but the ultimate decision should be yours too.
Start deciding for yourself and you will see a better person coming out of you.

We Too Are Human Beings.....

Women are an integral part of the society. From influencing they are outwitting men in jobs. From outwitting now they are dominatingin many spheres. In the phase of social suppression, focused and sustained action is required to awaken women to the possibilities of self reliance,to build confidence and organise women to take charge of their own development.

Fear is one factor which affects lives of women in our country. Often they could not voice their sufferings due to fear and other social, cultural and religious constraints. "It happens only in India" the statement which reflects our society, humiliates the pride of the nation and the dignity of men and women. If men chose not to exploit women there will be a substantial reduction in attrocities against women. Masculinity is not abusing women. It is respecting and treating them as equal.

What Indira Gandhi did , what Malala showed us, I think we all can do it. Women empowerment should be not be something for discussion and debate only., It is something to be made real and practised in society. The possibilities that lie ahead of us are infinite. A world where every woman lives a life of self reliance and dignity is my dream.
