We all know & have heard a renowned saying that is, “everything has two aspects, just like two sides of a coin”. But the question is, do we accept this in reality? This requires a deep introspection to find it’s truest answer. We always feel contended when we achieve something, but seldom we think or talk about the grey shades of life. So, here I am writing about an interesting incident of my life.<\/p>\n","id":"1528033977486","type":"txt"},{"data":"5b119f999524c","id":"1528033977487","type":"img"},{"data":"
After my 12th results were declared in May 2015, I took a break to prepare for next year’s engineering exams & in the mean while, I was working hard to pursue my dream, to join Armed Forces as an officer. But that period of one year turned out to be a tough time. Continuous hurdles were coming on my way one after the other. Neither I was able to make it into Defence nor was I able to focus on entrance preparation. In May 2016, it was my 4th month in Hyderabad when I got a mail that I have been shortlisted for the Technical Cadet entry of the Navy for July 2016 course. This was supposed to be my 3rd attempt (defence aspirants will understand better). I had to report at Visakhapatnam Station at 0630 hours on the given date. I had roughly 2 weeks to prepare, which I utilized efficiently. <\/p>\n","id":"1528033977487","type":"txt"},{"data":"5b119face8e16","id":"1528033977487","type":"img"},{"data":"
I boarded my train & my arrival at Visakhapatnam was at 0445 hours the next morning. During my journey, I called a senior school friend of mine who was then a cadet in the Army for final guidance. Everything was going smooth but, the All Mighty had planned something else in my destiny. I got up at 0400 hours when I got to know that the train was 1 hour late, still I had enough time. But very soon I got to know that it was 5 hours late. I called the MCO Visakhapatnam Station & the NSB (Naval Selection Board) repeatedly but there was no response. I was feeling as helpless as a drug addict feels when he doesn’t take his dose on time. I reached there at 0930 hours & as soon as I stepped out of the train, I rushed to the auto stand. With the hope that the testing might not have started, I reached the NSB in some 20 minutes. But, one half of the screening test was accomplished. I explained my situation to the officials, but rules can’t be changed for a single person. <\/p>\n","id":"1528033977487","type":"txt"},{"data":"
I returned to the station in the same auto, booked a tatkal ticket to Hyderabad on that same evening, sat in the waiting room & was thinking that why this happened. Since my ticket wasn’t confirmed, I had to complete the journey sitting on the floor near the gate, but that wasn’t a big issue. And the irony was that I reached Hyderabad ½ an hour earlier than the scheduled arrival time. <\/p>\n","id":"1528033977487","type":"txt"},{"data":"5b11a006c4add","id":"1528033977488","type":"img"},{"data":"
No one would like such an incident to happen, but the fact is if such things happen, accept it, learn from it & move on. That time I felt like I missed a chance but now I have understood that better opportunities will be coming on my way, just like the dialogue in M.S. Dhoni film, “Agar ye darwaza band nhi karte ,to woh wala nahi khulta”. And the reason why that happened to me is because I had the capability to face it. <\/p>\n","id":"1528033977488","type":"txt"},{"data":"5b11a21cce939","id":"1528033977488","type":"img"},{"data":"

Sourav has a great interest in reading books but he is unable to spare time for his sole interest. He strives hard to manage time for reading. But his struggle always goes in vain because he can't help himself completing the whole book in his busy going life.<\/p>
He wishes to have someone to give the jist of the book. Even many of us have this feeling...right!<\/p>
Amrith Deshmukh reads for us. Not only for us, he reads for the whole nation. Amrut Deshmukh is the founder of booklet app. He is on the mission to cultivate the habit of reading among the Indian youth. He comes up with weekly book summaries both text and audio.\n<\/p>
You can read a thick book just within 20 min using booklet app. Let me give you a lucid idea about this.<\/p>
Amrith was engaged in the hunt for Startup ideas. One day his friend invited him for watching movie. They reached the theatre 15 minutes earlier and in order to kill time he started narrating a book to his friend. His friend was very much impressed by Amrith skills. He asked Amrith to share summary of the books.<\/p>
Amrith felt this will be the proper idea as his startup. He spent sleepless nights right from the day to give shape to his idea. As he is from Chartered Accountant background he doesn't have any technical knowledge. But he didn't give up there, a quote from the book \"It's not important what you have, it's important what you do with what you have\"<\/i>, ignited him. He has Whats App so he started saying book summaries and within no time he got requests from thousand people and after 5 months it reached to 50,000. Through survey he realised that people like summaries but they didn't have time to read them. So he started making audio summaries. It was an instant hit and after facing many adversities he came up with a booklet app. <\/p>
\"Nobody is busy in life it's all about priorities. If you have time for Facebook you have time for book. Reading can't be a hobby, ever heard having breakfast as hobby..? \" says Amrith. This sounds truly sensible!<\/p>
Friends, this is an amazing app. Just download and join the great mission of making India read and fall in love with books.<\/p>"}]

All these things, and countless other ways people try to make themselves happy, they are all merely means to give ourselves a temporary feel-good moment. But when you think about it, they don\u2019t really fix the problem. They don\u2019t fix our reason for sadness. They are \u2018bandages\u2019. It\u2019s okay to use them, but using them alone? How long?<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1537698580320","data":"
So what is it that makes us happy? What is it that keeps our mind at peace 24\/7? Is it even possible? Or is it the way it\u2019s supposed to be? I mean, there\u2019s day, and then there\u2019s night. As the book \u201cThe Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck\u201d by Mark Manson says, it is important for us to have problems. Because that\u2019s what gives us a reason to live, to improve. He says we shouldn\u2019t avoid pain, but accept it. Well, how do we do that? Clearly watching movies, hanging out with friends, music\u2026 These are ways we avoid the problem. That won\u2019t keep us happy in the \u2018long term\u2019.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1537698580321","data":"
The answer I\u2019ve found is that, to be happy, we need to \u2018accomplish\u2019 something. Yep, reading good books, studying for exams, making new friends, improving our relationships, meeting new people, etc. Just, \u2018getting things done\u2019, that\u2019s what makes us happy. Get moving! And to an extent, I felt this was it! This was how I could feel good about myself. Maybe I wasn\u2019t happy because I wasn\u2019t proud of myself. No, laughing all day with friends and having a great time all day, every day, doesn\u2019t mean you are happy. At the end of the day, when you face yourself in the mirror and think about yourself, if you are not who you want to be, then what the hell are you doing? <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1537698580322","data":"
So of course, in order to be happy, I need to become the person I want to be! Right? I mean, wouldn\u2019t I be happy if I scored excellent marks? Wouldn\u2019t I be happy if I could run a 10k in less than 40 mins? Wouldn\u2019t I be happy if I could make great friendships and be with the people I like? Wouldn\u2019t I be happy if for once my parents could be proud of me? Wouldn\u2019t I be happy if for once I didn\u2019t disappoint the people (including me) who have hopes from me? <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1537698580323","data":"
So yeah, by making myself a better person, I would be happy, right? It may be right, but not entirely. What if it\u2019s not the only thing that\u2019s required?<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1537698580324","data":"
Today I had a deep feeling of moving to Madinah for a month. Just, \u201cpack up and roll up my sleeves\u201d, and leave. Just for a month.

No more trying to improve myself. No more of the constant battle with my addiction. Just\u2026 peace. For a month. No contact with anyone in my life. I could \u2018disconnect\u2019 with this life. No more thinking about what others think about me. No more of \u201cwhat do they want from me\u201d? No studying, no expectations, no responsibilities. Just\u2026 peace!

It's a story as old as time itself, parents giving you pocket money but then you know for a fact that the money given to you won't be enough to last through a full day, let alone the entire month. So what, then, can you do when you know you need the money and just have your wits and your skills with you, while managing college and social life? <\/p>
Throw away whatever social life you have and pick up a means to earn some money, of course. We're obviously joking, but on a serious note, listed below are some methods, a student can use to earn money on their own. <\/p>
1. Affiliate Marketing: <\/b>This one doesn't even have to compromise your social life. All you need to do is be a real smooth talker and make friends with people who use online retailers like Amazon frequently, and you are set. Affiliate marketing is great, and can net you some serious cash if done right. How it works is, if a person buys a product they are looking for using the affiliate link you provide, you get a percentage of the price of the product bought. So, the bigger the product, the better money you make, and you can do that by sitting at home or hanging out with your friends. \n\n\ufffc <\/p>
2. Become a Tutor:<\/b>\n\nThis one is as old as our parents, and we are not even joking. There have been many generations of students teaching the next generation, especially those who had a knack of mastering difficult subjects. Best part, private tutors for engineering subjects can easily charge somewhere around Rs. 10000 per subject, and all of that for just one or two hours of classes.\n\n\ufffc <\/p>
3. Sell your services: <\/b>on Fiverr \n\nThe world's largest platform for freelancers, Fiverr.com is a unique website where you can get stuff done for as low as $5. From designing a logo for someone, to singing a song, to writing a letter with beautiful handwriting and something as simple as holding up a signboard for a popular YouTuber, they want it, you have it, so why do it for free?\n\n\ufffc <\/p>
4. Teach a skill:<\/b> If you were the kind of kid that was given a skill to learn without choosing when you were a kid, this is the time you thank your stars that your parents chose the right path for you. From teaching how to play guitar, to teaching various instruments, dance forms, even becoming a professional gaming coach (DoTA is serious business, after all), this is something you should definitely consider, if you are going to be serious about making money and have skill. \n\n\ufffc <\/p>
5. Startup:<\/b> No this is not a joke, neither are you dreaming. This is literally the best idea to make money on the side, if your idea is amazing and catches enough eyes. You can forget about having a social life, however, the success of your startup life will pivot you to such heights, you can forget about pocket money for the rest of your life and start worrying about how to grow your business even further. This path is the hardest in this list, but if it works out, the most rewarding. <\/p>
There are many student entrepreneurs for you to take inspirations from, many of whom we've covered right here on stuMagz. <\/p>
So, do you think you have what it takes? Are you ready to make money on the side and go forge your own destiny?<\/p>
Do tell us in the comments! \n\n\ufffc\n\n<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1538045060647","data":"5ba75184499e2"}]
Granny locked me in my room and she won\u2019t let me out. She says it\u2019s because I was bad.\nSometimes I do bad things. Ever since my mommy went away. Granny says my mommy is in heaven. I don\u2019t know how she got there.\nI can still remember mommy. I remember her long black hair and her dark eyes. I remember her red lips and her white teeth. I remember her soft skin. I remember the way she smelled.\nHer red dress still smells like her. It\u2019s hanging in the wardrobe in her bedroom. Granny keeps mommy\u2019s room locked. She says I\u2019m not allowed in there, but I know where she hides the key. Sometimes when granny falls asleep I sneak in there and smell mommy\u2019s red dress. <\/p>
I have a friend called Mary Ann. She lives across the street. Sometimes she comes over to my house to play. She came over today. We were playing with dolls. <\/p>
Granny told me, \u201cDon\u2019t go into your mother\u2019s room.<\/i>\u201d <\/p>
\" Ok<\/i> ,\u201d I said. <\/p>
When Granny took her nap, I told Mary Ann, \u201cLet\u2019s play dress-up.\u201d <\/p>
I took the key from Granny\u2019s hiding place and unlocked the door to mommy\u2019s bedroom. We went inside. It was almost too dark to see. <\/p>
\u201cThis is where my mommy lives<\/i>,\u201d I said.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have a mommy<\/i>,\u201d said Mary Ann.\nThat made me angry. I opened the wardrobe and took out the red silk dress. <\/p>
\u201cThis is my mommy\u2019s dress,\u201d<\/i> I said. I held it up to show her. <\/p>
\u201cIt stinks<\/i>,\u201d Mary Ann said.\n\u201cNo it doesn\u2019t,<\/i>\u201d I said. \u201cIt smells like flowers<\/i>.\u201d<\/p>
\u201cIt smells like dead things<\/i>,\u201d she said.\nThat made me even more angry. <\/p>
\u201cWho\u2019s that?<\/i>\u201d asked Mary Ann. She was pointing at a picture. <\/p>
\u201cThat\u2019s my mommy; Isn\u2019t she beautiful?<\/i>\u201d <\/p>
\u201cShe\u2019s ugly<\/i>,\u201d Mary Ann said. \u201cShe has creepy eyes and her teeth are weird<\/i>.\u201d <\/p>
\u201cNo, she doesn't<\/i>,\u201d I said. \u201cShe looks like the most beautiful girl in the world!<\/i>\u201d<\/p>
\u201cShe looks like a dead thing<\/i>,\u201d Mary Ann said. <\/p>
That made me the angriest of all.\nI don\u2019t remember what happened then. I think I heard Mary Ann screaming. I don\u2019t remember why. It was dark and I almost couldn\u2019t see. I couldn\u2019t hear anything except Mary Ann screaming.\nI think something bad happened.\nThen I remember granny shouting at me. She was crying too. She took the red dress off me. She was really rough and she kept hitting me. I was crying too.\nGranny fetched a washcloth and wiped the blood off my face. She told me over and over how bad I was. Then, she dragged me all the way upstairs and locked me in my room.\nI looked out the window and saw granny in the back yard. She was burying something with a shovel.\nI must have done something really bad.<\/p>"}]
' I just feel alone , I feel like a automaton. I'm just surrounded by people who are not really connected to me in personal levels. I don't even know how to explain my situation. I'm just tired of being fake and faking laughs too.'<\/i> <\/p>
I felt like this once and I heard and also I'm hearing this from others too.\n Let us stop for a minute and really think about, are really behaving like what we are?\n\nReally? \n\nWe want to be so perfect every second , we want to look perfect , we want to be felt as \"perfect\". \nWell .. why are we trying so hard to be perfect when our \"imperfect things \" are so beautiful? \nWe are beautiful inside and out as what we are . But we try very badly to be perfect all the time . Obviously says that, we are not letting \"our-self\" come out.\nWe are not living like what we actually are!\nWe will attract people like us when we project us as 'us'. Then, we will be surrounded by the people who really care about us and connected in personal levels. <\/p>
So, when we are not living like what we are then we won't have the people in our life whom we are looking for.\nThen,We will definitely be surrounded by the people who doesn't understands us or who really are not connected in personal levels.\n\nDo you guys ever wonder why we have best buddies from schools or any childhood mates?<\/p>
(Mostly)\nBecause we were like what we actually are. As a child , we never cared about what is this \"being perfect\".\nWe never worried to behave like what we actually are.\nWe were not afraid of losing fake people or bad reputation or whatever .\nAs we grew , we understood that this society is full of competition and pride and prizes and everything else.\n <\/p>
Competition, pride should actually be a positive vibe but we mistaken it .Competition is to win a race. Competition doesn't need you to harm others. We completely mistaken it and we understood that , we have to beat others to win the race. Competition is to show the better version of you but when you are bad to others and if you win the competition, does it really matters? <\/p>
We are in a society where people judge each other. They judge you if you do anything. They judge you even if you don't.\nSo, basically all are here to judge us.\nWhy do we even have to care about it then? \n\nWhy don't we live in the way we love to live?\nWe have only one life and you should thank God that you are a human.If you were a animal, god knows what humans have done with you till now.\ud83e\udd37 <\/p>
I just want to say , don't take judgmental people seriously and ruin your life. We have only one life here and let us live like us .\nLet us live in a wonderful way so that , when we are in our 60's or 70's we will have a heartful of memories with us , in which we enjoyed , we learnt , we laughed , we cried, and finally we lived like \"us\".\n\n\n\n<\/p>"}]
