Have you ever wondered why most of us set goals and make time tables and fail to reach the finish line? Is it because of the procrastination or lack of interest or shortage of motivation to complete the tasks? Several factors determine our incompetence towards achieving goals, but most importantly it's our inner self and habits that define our work ethic.<\/p>
We are not adequately in touch with our inner sphere, our impulses, who we are and where exactly we want to be. We're constantly hustling with our hectic lifestyles and often end up chasing the wrong things. <\/p>
The author of the book- Atomic Habits James Clear has decoded the characteristics of human habits and presented the ways to bend them according to our convenience. He is an entrepreneur, writer, photographer, and baseball player. It is a Newyork Times bestselling book with more than one million copies sold worldwide since the day of publishing i.e. 18 October 2018. <\/p>
The book is meticulous with explanations of self-improvement through tiny changes daily, which compound into a habit eventually. It's impressive how he set forth the context of habits being a solution to problems and reflection of our emotional state. We can resonate with the author through his examples and laws proposed. One such fascinating snippet of the book is '4 laws of Behaviour Change'. The author says, to develop a better habit and successfully implement it should be: <\/p>
1.Obvious.<\/p>
2.Attractive.<\/p>
3.Easy.<\/p>
4.Satisfying.<\/p>
Encapsulation of the books' core idea is if we're willing to build those small behaviours and layer them with 1% of improvement on top of each other which will compound and multiply results in an immense change of habits. The author also highlights the significance of understanding our habits so that they'll serve in our favor and not downfall. If you're looking for guidance and ideas to improve the quality of life and achieve goals 'Atomic Habits' is a no brainer. This will prompt us with self-inquiry and make us rewire our choices. The book might not be very engaging in the beginning but trust me eventually, you'll be pleased to know all the tricks it has to offer. I'm grateful to my friend who has recommended this book to me, and I hope this book helps you too. <\/p>
James Clear has been an online blogger for a long time and has more than 8 million people following his newsletter. Here's his website link- jamesclear.com. If you're interested in reading Atomic Habits, here's a free link for the audiobook- https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tJ4N5123MpU.<\/p>"}]

In the past few weeks, Corona Virus has been the buzzword on the internet and on news. Thousands of foreign nationals have been evacuated from China, owing to the outbreak of the virus in Wuhan, that has reportedly killed at least 425 people. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has declared it as a global health emergency, as more than 20000 cases have been reported worldwide. According to reports, the infection is now more widespread than the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) outbreak that racked the world in 2002-2003.<\/p>
What is a Corona Virus?<\/b><\/p>
Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds and in humans, these viruses cause respiratory infections including the common cold. <\/p>
Originally transmitted between animals and people, there are several corona viruses that have not infected humans yet. These viruses have been named corona because they resemble the solar corona. On January 7, 2020, a novel corona virus has been identified by Chinese authorities and has been named 2019-nCoV. This new strain of the virus has never been identified in humans before and this strain is what is in the news these days. <\/p>
What are the symptoms?<\/b><\/p>
As per WHO, the signs and symptoms of 2019-nCoV are just like the symptoms of common cold - fever, cough, shortness of breath, breathing difficulties. In extreme cases, it can lead to pneumonia, SARS, renal failure and even death. <\/p>
Which places have been affected?<\/b><\/p>
China has witnessed the highest number of cases and deaths, specifically in the Hubei province. The virus has spread to many Asian countries and other continents, through people who recently travelled to China. <\/p>
What are the authorities doing to stop it from spreading?<\/b><\/p>
Top scientists are reportedly working on a vaccine but it is unlikely to be available for mass distribution before 2021.<\/p>
The Chinese government has effectively sealed off Wuhan and has placed extensive restrictions on travel to and from other cities. <\/p>
Many airlines have cancelled flights from China and some countries have evacuated their nationals from China. India is also one of those countries.<\/p>
What can you do to prevent it?<\/b><\/p>
Wash your hands frequently with an alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water. Preferably, keep a hand-sanitizer handy.<\/b><\/p>
When coughing or sneezing, do it into a tissue paper or if that is unavailable, sneeze into your elbow.<\/p>
Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth.<\/p>
If possible, wear a face-mask while outside.<\/p>"}]

It was on this day, i.e. February 4, in 2004 that Mark Zuckerberg launched Facebook, a product that revolutionised social media. While social media is usually associated with fun and making friends and posting pictures did you know it can also be a very useful tool for students to build their career? Almost all platforms that are commonly used, Facebook, Twitter, Quora, etc and more can be used by students to their advantage. Considering the fact that about 70% of employers scan potential employees' social media profiles before hiring, it is imperative that students learn how to use these platforms from a career perspective.<\/p>
Facebook: <\/b>Sharing memes and pictures is what students usually use this platform for but building the profile carefully, adding skills and simple acts like liking pages that are of relevance to one's career choices can go a long way. It'll keep one informed of the developments in that particular field and also will create an impression that the person is really into that area of interest. The way the profile is built is also very important as employers usually search for a Facebook profile before anything else; so care should be taken about the bio, pictures, etc.<\/p>
Twitter:<\/b> Twitter can be a really powerful tool for students to brand themselves and create a social media image that's relevant. An easy thing that students can do on Twitter is to follow industry experts and keep tweeting to them or retweeting their posts. By tweeting about their projects and other industry updates, it'll create a good social media image for young, career seeking individuals.<\/p>
Instagram:<\/b> While this platform is not relevant for all types of professions, those pursuing a career in niche fields like writing, graphic design, marketing, fashion design, etc can make use of this platform to the maximum advantage. This platform is also apt for those who want to pursue a career in such fields, regardless of what their original field of study is as this platform enables easy branding. For instance, someone who is into graphic design can easily post their designs on Instagram or a person whose pursuit is writing can post screenshots of their writings.<\/p>
LinkedIn:<\/b> This is probably the most crucial platform regardless of what the career interest is. On this, one can directly get in touch with potential employers, get to know of what the industry trends are and more. Like Facebook, care should be taken in building the profile on this platform too. With the platform itself being a professional one, centered around careers, sharing content that is relevant to one's area of interest puts them one step closer towards landing a desired job.<\/p>
Quora:<\/b> This platform provides an easy way to showcase expertise in any particular subject, as it is based on answering specific questions posted by users. It'll also show up on Google searches, enabling easy branding for people who have a fair amount of knowledge in any given area. This is especially useful for engineering students wanting to pursue a career in the IT sector, as there are a lot of questions pertaining to coding and more. Answering them requires expertise, so it's evident to potential employers that a person is skilled. <\/p>"}]
Cancer is leading killer disease in the world. In 2015, about 90.5 million people had cancer. About 14.1 million new cases occur a year.It caused about 8.8 million deaths (15.7% of deaths)<\/p>\n
The most common types of cancer in males are lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer and stomach cancer.<\/p>\n
In females, the most common types are breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer and cervical cancer.<\/p>\n
Cancer is basically a condition of failure of cell division control. Unchecked division of cells leads to formation of neoplasm (tumor).cancer cells actively divide and grow, they starve the normal cells by competing for vital nutrients.<\/p>\n
(i) BENIGN (Neoplasm may be harmless)-Leiomyoma (uterine fibroids)<\/p>\n
(ii) PRE-MALIGNANT -- in which cells transform into cancerous cells inn due course of time<\/p>\n
(iii) MALIGNANT- cancer in which cells invade and destroy surrounding cells forming 'metastasis'<\/p>\n
ONCOLOGY- is the branch of medicine that deals with tumors ,including their development ,diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.<\/p>\n
Cancer cells lack<\/p>\n
1- contact inhibition<\/p>\n
2-anchorage dependence<\/p>\n
3-cadherins<\/p>\n
4-apoptosis<\/p>\n
cancer cells have abnormal changes on their cell surface antigens which can be recognized and destroyed ny NK cells and Tc cells of immune system.<\/p>\n
Another important aspect of tumors is- there is increased growth of blood vessels towards the tumors. when tumors grow in size, diffusion of oxygen and nutrients becomes restricted and so tumors resort to attracting more blood vessels from their surrounding matrix(angiogenesis) If extension of blood vessels can be inhibited, the cancer cells starve and die.<\/b><\/u><\/p>\n
People with HIV\/AIDS have an increased risk of developing the following cancers: <\/u>Kaposi sarcoma<\/b><\/u>.<\/u><\/p>\n
Lymphoma--A cancer of the lymphatic system.<\/u><\/p>\n
Leukemia--A cancer of blood-forming tissues, hindering the body's ability to fight infection.<\/u><\/p>\n
Melanoma--The most serious type of skin cancer.<\/u><\/p>\n
Prostate cancer--A cancer in a man's prostate, a small walnut-sized gland that produces seminal fluid.<\/p>\n
Breast cancer--A cancer that forms in the cells of the breasts<\/p>\n
CANCERS CAUSED BY VIRUSES: <\/p>\n
Human papilloma viruses (HPVs) - Cervical cancer<\/b> <\/p>\n
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)- \u201ckissing disease.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV)- liver cancer<\/b><\/p>\n
Human T-lymphotrophic virus-1 (HTLV-1)<\/b><\/p>\n
now a days there is no need to worry much about cancers...early detection of cancers and cure is present in every country. <\/b><\/p>\n
When ever we find any abnormalities, we should consult a doctor, otherwise when things go out of hands.. things will get more worse. <\/b><\/p>\n"}]
It was 5 \u2018o clock in the morning. After the amazing night we spent together, You were asleep like a baby. So calm yet so serene. \u201cHow can you be so perfect?\u201d I whispered as I kissed your forehead. I ran my fingers through your hair, caressing gently so as to not wake you. I cupped your face in my hands. I wish I could show you how much you meant to me! \u201cI love you baby\u201d I whispered. \u201cYou have no idea what you\u2019re doing to me every single day. You make me beyond happy. Everytime you tell love me or compliment me, I get the butterflies. You know, I smile at the selfies you send me everyday. You make me smile even when we\u2019re miles apart. Your, \u201cBaby, I miss you\u201d makes me wish I could come to you and hug you tight, just enough to feel each others breath. You cross my mind everytime I see someone smoking. How you smile at me and say, \u201c I promise I\u2019ll quit\u201d and melt my heart with that childlike smile of yours. How your mischievous eyes seek a kiss when no one\u2019s around. I find it fascinating when you tell me about something that happened to you. I could never get tired of anything you say. Your honesty astounds me. How cute you look when you twitch your nose, pretending to be mad at me. For all that you\u2019ve done to me and done for me, I can\u2019t thank you enough. Not because I'm not grateful, but because you never let me thank you. Despite all of that, thank you so much baby. For loving me, believing in me, confiding in me and making me the person I am today\u201d. Tears roll down my eyes with content. I wipe my eyes and sniff. \u201cYou'd be so mad if you found me crying\u201d I chuckle. And as I lean down to kiss you, you grab me by my waist, kiss me back harder and pull me back to snuggle in with you. Does this mean that you heard what I said?\nThis is where I have always wanted to be, right here In your arms.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1580735771812}]

Social Responsibility and Ethics\n\nSocial responsibility is an ethical theory, in which individuals are accountable for fulfilling their civic duty; the actions of an individual must benefit the whole of society. In this way, there must be a balance between economic growth and the welfare of society and the environment. If this equilibrium is maintained, then social responsibility is accomplished.\n\nWhat it Means to be Socially Responsible and Ethical?\n\nThe theory of social responsibility is built on a system of ethics, in which decisions and actions must be ethically validated before proceeding. If the action or decision causes harm to society or the environment then it would be considered to be socially irresponsible.\n\nMoral values that are inherent in society create a distinction between right and wrong. In this way, social fairness is believed (by most) to be in the \u201cright\u201d, but more frequently than not this \u201cfairness\u201d is absent. Every individual has a responsibility to act in manner that is beneficial to society and not solely to the individual.\nWhen Do Social Responsibility and Ethics Apply?\n\nThe theory of social responsibility and ethics applies in both individual and group capacities. It should be incorporated into daily actions\/decisions, particularly ones that will have an effect on other persons and\/or the environment. In the larger, group capacity, a code of social responsibility and ethics is applied within said group as well as during interactions with another group or an individual.\n\nBusinesses have developed a system of social responsibility that is tailored to their company environment. If social responsibility is maintained within a company than the employees and the environment are held equal to the company\u2019s economics. Maintaining social responsibility within a company ensures the integrity of society and the environment are protected.\n\nOften, the ethical implications of a decision\/action are overlooked for personal gain and the benefits are usually material. This frequently manifests itself in companies that attempt to cheat environmental regulations. When this happens, government interference is necessary.\n\nUnfortunately, social responsibility and ethics are often not practiced by American companies outside of U.S. borders, which makes regulation difficult.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1580622032204}]

Yes! Parkour is a sport, also known as freerunning is a form of improvised outdoor gymnastics. Using no equipment other than athletic shoes and a hefty dose of nerve, practitioners \u2014 called traceurs<\/i> \u2014 vault over cars and brick walls, slide under park benches, and hurl themselves over natural and man-made structures, all with lightning-fast accuracy and efficiency.<\/p>
Some who view Parkour might say that it is dangerous, only for those who are extremely athletic or too hard. Even though Parkour looks dangerous, traceurs practice repetitively taking each step before progressing to another, checking each landing point for safety and practicing each movement until it is as common as walking. Even though practitioners of Parkour do tend to appear to be athletic, that is because they have been Free Running for some time. Anyone can do it, everyone progresses at a different rate and at different levels. That also means that it becomes easier and much more fun.<\/p>
Here is the story of Deepak who always had a thing for parkour. He started practicing parkour in his middle school taking motivation from icons like Storror. Storror is a group of seven parkour and freerunning athletes from Britain. Their skills are insanely exceptional and they are Deepak's inspiration. <\/p>
He tried doing parkour, and slowly it turned into a habit. Later on, he found himself doing parkour in parks. Climbing walls, vaulting through obstacles gave him happiness which other sports failed to give. His love for parkour took him to the park almost every day. With the help of his friends, he started learning new moves like monkey vault, kong vault, speed vault and many more. The most exceptional skill is his landing, without any formal training he is able to stick his landings and he wishes to improve his form. Parkour needs strength and he chose calisthenics to build his strength. Calisthenics is a form of exercise in which their own body weight is used to build strength. And this is done with zero equipment, resulting in lean muscle and amazing strength. <\/p>
