Perseverance means continuing or repeating our efforts to achieve something in spite of many obstacles. It is the best of human virtues because it is the key to success.<\/p>
Human life is full of hardships and misfortunes.we cannot expect to control every situation in our life but we can control the way we react to it.sometimes in life we face failures as they are part of our life.we should not be disheartened by the failures as they teach the best lessons which no one teach us.failures, misfortune, difficulties are the obstacles to our path of success which we can overcome with the help of perseverance.<\/p>
If we place an obstacle in front of a moving ant, it overcomes the obstacle. If we place an obstacle again, it repeats the same thing. It does not stop its effort to overcome the obstacle. It is the perseverance of an ant to overcome the obstacle.<\/p>
When you know and believe something to be what you want it to be, and you realise that repeating the same thing over and over until it becomes toxic to you is not a good thing, perseverance is a skill you must inculcate within yourself. The art of knowing when to stop and when to persevere is a story of its own. There is a very thin line between futile repetition and positive perseverance. One who finds this line and manages to balance their life on it will find success. <\/p>

I had to think a thousand times before writing this, whether is it appropriate to post something like a raw truth called death in a public platform. But here I am, talking about it.<\/p>\n
The reason I wanted to speak about this is that I watched death pass in front of me a few moments back. I am still terrified by the fact that I had to witness it.<\/p>\n
After a long strolling Sunday I decide to have a smoke and refreshment in the evening. I had my bike roaring. Past went the car driven by an energetic young fellow like me. He had lost his control over the beast and missed me by a flicker. But that was not the end of the show. An old man was crossing the street. In order to avoid his collision with the man, the driver turned his car towards an auto coming in the opposite direction. The same was done by the auto driver who as a result ran into the old man.<\/p>\n
I was sitting there on my bike witnessing the worst horror show ever. In the blink of an eye, the man was down. The auto's headlight was broken into pieces. Luckily he was alive but badly injured. Blood flowed furiously from his ankle and I could hear him screaming out of pain. The driver of the car had fled the scene with the car. But the auto driver taking up the responsibility took the man to the hospital accompanied by me and another Uncle. His ankle was broken and needed bed rest.<\/p>\n
I came back home forgetting my smoke. I was thinking, What if the car hadn't missed me? What if I was the person injured or even dead by now? I swore, pausing for a moment, that was scary. I had just started living my life.<\/p>\n
Death is a raw truth that comes for us all. I guess everyone might have watched Final Destination movie series. At first, even I did not believe death makes plans for us. But now as I have witnessed a grave horror scene with a perfect script, I had to give up my belief. Death has a plan for each one of us. It's only a matter of time. It made me think of how we take the life we have for granted, living recklessly, believing ourselves to be invincible and ignoring the inevitable as if that will make it go away. <\/p>\n
So guys, embrace the life that you have been given. Do whatever you want today. Because no one can ever guarantee you a Tomorrow. Not even You. Fasten your seat belts and stay safe.<\/p>\n
Live life like there is no tomorrow! Cheers!<\/p>\n"}]
THEME OF THE WORKSHOP<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Engineering is basically the application of science to make the life better. Application of engineering is growing seamlessly crossing the physical, geographical borders. Today\u2019s engineer is a global citizen addressing the global problems in addition to the local problems. The tool or product designed has to be relevant for any Geo spatial, cultural and even logical barriers. The challenges are multiple. If providing solutions to these challenges is critical then adaptation while in the process of finding solution is no less mandatory. Engineer has to incorporate global personality traits in teams of heterogeneous nature and the product generated thereby has to be consumed not withstanding any boundaries. <\/p>
\nThe SCALE workshop is based on the theme <\/p>
\u201cTransformative youth and Engineering Education towards Sustainable Future\u201d.<\/b> <\/p>
The process in the workshop includes building models, plans, solutions, schema, idea creation and various modes of engineering dialogue. SCALE is a student initiative, working in collaboration with IUCEE, which is a platform of the students, by the students, for the students. The workshop provides a platform to encourage students to work in a passionate manner apart from the syllabus set by the educational committees. It engages students to work on Project Based Learning, which enables an individual to be competent for the industry and outside world. Students would also be given tasks or action plans to develop in the workshop wherein they can brainstorm and arise with creative and mind blowing ideas which can help the rapidly growing society. <\/p>
The duration of the workshop is 3 days. The first day starts with introduction to the theme of the workshop and followed by churning sessions, wet skill sessions and group activities. The second day starts with a presentation on the importance of action plan development followed by development of action plans by the participants by exploring the theme and involves presentation of the action plans by various groups to the peer of the colleges. The workshops are facilitated by 3 experienced SCALE members from across the country.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1505046693684","data":"

Woke up at 09:28 today. The same old lazy morning and the snoozing alarm sounding at its peak, only to be put back on hold. With a half open eye and the bed-stuck spine, the mobile screen made me realize that the morning lecture is already out of my hands. Not a worrisome update, I've already got used to it (0% attendance requirement, duh!). But I could see something worse slipping from my cards. <\/p>
Wake up, boy! Just a couple of minutes before they closed the doors to your \"morning madness\" (Get that, please). Pace up or miss out the only good meal of the day. Such cruel is the world, who shuts down the entry for food? It's disheartening to be so close to it and yet so far to reach. <\/p>
Brush your teeth, later. Judge me all you want but I've got my priorities sorted. And when the time asks for it, you got to make some tough calls. You haven't eaten for 8 long hours, after the night canteen I mean, and worked till the first ray of sun struck your face, especially when you're roleplaying a sniper. And while you were rested for a power-nap-stretched-too-long, your mind was still fighting the evil. Quite a restless task you did there. <\/p>
But what about the habits that you've grown up with? All the learnings about the manners and etiquettes, you want them to go in vain? Just because of a delay of a couple of minutes, you're letting go of a well-nurtured \"ritual\". You may regret it in the later times, that because of you being irresponsible towards your tasks, you're now showing a token of disrespect to the endeavors of your parents. Let that sink. <\/p>
After analyzing the opportunity cost against a long grown daily chore and getting the weighted average of the risk regressions, It was the latter who was the clear winner, breakfast to be specific. 'Cause why not? What is learned shall never be forgotten but at the same time, you must live in the present.\nWhat you do now will have a more impact than what you've been doing so far and when it comes on to choosing the sides, always the present you scales more than the past version of yours. <\/p>
Because anyway, screw ups like these, being the perpetual ones, can be managed in the future but you must not start off with a brand new blunder when you now that it can be averted. <\/p>
Damn! That was a tough analysis to do, wasn't it? Took more time to think it myself than you reading this blog. So I started off my way to Hostel mess. And not to my surprise now, the gates were tightly closed. So I got back and brushed my teeth. <\/p>
Fin. <\/p>
PS: This is my first effort in writing the first person account and an abstract comparative analysis. <\/p>
Do let me know your remarks and the points at which I can improve further. \n<\/p>"}]
\nHe says \" Being a biker is more than riding,you feel it in your heart and your <\/b>soul<\/b>. \"<\/b>\nToday, I got to interview SRINITH REDDY, a national level motorcyclist. Here is how the interview went!<\/b><\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: When was the time that you started attaining interest in bikes?\nSrinith<\/b>: Well,I dont exactly remember,as a child moto gp fascinated me unlike other kids so it was always from the start that I love bikes and racings.I was always passionate about it.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: When was the first time you started to learn bike?\nSrinith<\/b>: I learned bike when I was in my class 10 and eventually I started loving it more,with every passing day.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: Which motorcycle racer do you admire the most?\nSrinith<\/b>: That is Valentino rossi, I admire him the most.He is 38 years old now and a MotoGP racer.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: To you,what riding or racing means?\nSrinith<\/b>: It is like a meditation to me that helps me getting over all my stress cause sometimes you needs crooked roads to get your head straight.(laughs)<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: Where do you usually practise for your track days and what are the things that you intensify on?\nSrinith<\/b>: I belong to race'ists motorcycle club and we practice in chicane circuit,leonea resorts. We need to work on our body positioning,lap timings and several things.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: Which bike do you own and which one would you look forward to?\nSrinith<\/b>: RTR 200,that is bike that I own.I named it ATOM which refers to mini dynamite. BMW s1000rr is my favourite bike,I would love to own it some day.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: Being a racer what are the things that you need to care about?\nSrinith<\/b>: A racer is suppose to maintain his fitness and have a good physique. Drinking or smoking is completely barred. We have to maintain proper diet and workout a lot.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: As a racer what are you achievements?\nSrinith<\/b>: I am a National Level motorcyclist for that I will always be thankful to my mentor Harsha Kakarla,Vikas Reddy who is also the founder of Race'ists club.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: Would you make racing as your full time profession or it will remain your hobby?\nSrinith<\/b>: If given a chance,I would love to make it my full time profession but that is something where I need my parents support.It will always be my hobby though.<\/p>\n
Me<\/b>: Would you like to give any message to the teens about rash driving?\nSrinith<\/b>: Yes,definitely. According to me racing should be restricted to the tracks cause roads are proner to accidents that may cost them their life. One while on road must follow all the safety rules,and always wear a helmet.<\/p>\n

We all must've wondered what could be a perfect gift to give ? A perfect gift we'd love to receive?\nIf you ask me , I'd say the perfect gift anyone can give and receive is Unconditional Love . \nYes! You've read it right . \nUnconditional Love at its best ! \nI'm glad to say that the perfect gift in my life is Lyca, my lil pug . She is an unlimited pack of unconditional love . \nI feel dogs really are the best gift bestowed upon mankind . \nHaving a pet can never make you feel lonely . All they ever need is for you to spend time with them and love em' back. \nLyca listens to my endless talks and never judge me . Infact she doesn't say a word but that doesn't mean she wasn't listening . Expressions really matter , you can really understand your pet if you try . They convey a lot of things just with silence and expressions.<\/p>\n
Let whatever be the situation be , I always come home to her warm hugs filled with loads and loads of love and happiness . The way she wags her cinnamon roll tail is the best part of it . She's the most perfect one despite all the imperfections. Makes me forget everything for a while , seems as if we're the only two happy souls in the world that can be happy with some food and a stick , playing fetch .<\/p>\n","id":"1505050645742","type":"txt"},{"data":"
My mom always said dogs are a little piece of heaven .

As I give love I make space to receive love . I open up to love and in this way I give love a chance . I also do not need to wait for an opportunity to give , the occasion is always present . My spirit , my soul is healed as I give love and receive as much in return . \nWhat is love to you ? Is it blind loyalty ? Does it have to be perfect and free from other motivations ? \nDo you consider it to be the perfect gift ? \nWhat according to you is the perfect gift in your life ? \nDo let me know in the comments :)<\/p>\n","id":"1505050645743","type":"txt"},{"data":"59b53df39df90","id":"1505050645743","type":"img"}]
I thought I'd leave this article blank after that headline because it would make for a great meta joke, but then I realised I myself wasn't writing this on a Sunday morning, so making that joke becomes a little redundant.

The world is a smaller place, thanks to the internet. This network that brings us closer together has, in many cases, given access to people that we've never even met. This has not only enabled us to foster life long connections with those across seas or borders but has also enabled us to work together without ever having have to be in the same place. The business implications of The Internet have been vast and varied, giving us access to cutting edge devices that perform various functions but have one thing in common, a connection to the internet. <\/p>
But networking doesn't often mean networking through the internet. Before the age of the information highway began, people networked and made connections the old fashioned way: socialising. Unsurprisingly, it is still one of the most effective forms of making new friends and connections that can help you professionally in your careers as you climb the ever elusive ladders of the corporate world. Which is why going out to party on the weekends and letting your hair down is such an important part of modern culture. <\/p>
Despite what the prudes in our society believe of 'all those young people partying and getting drunk', parties and social gatherings, especially on the weekends, are quite possibly the best way to meet new connections for your social circle, thus increasing your network and the possibilities of what you can do with an exchange of information or favours. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1504950594177","data":"59b3c0255f3e0"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1504950597577","data":"
Let's be honest here, it's a dog eat dog world out there. The corporate ladder, and any other business or field in India really, is heavily occupied by extremely ambitious people who would do anything to get ahead. To survive in this cut throat world, you need to understand that just your work isn't enough. It also pays to know the right people and drop a word in at the right time, in exchange for a favour or a good word, depending on the hierarchy of positions between you and the person you're expecting help from. <\/p>
Now, I'm told that I'm quite a likeable person and can easily make friends, and I understand that this is not everyone's cup of tea and that this line sounds like I'm humble bragging, but I wasn't always like this. I had to reinvent myself when I realised how important it was to form connections in this world. So yours truly, who still to this day dislikes parties and social gatherings, goes to them anyway for just one reason: making friends and connections. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1504951493130","data":"59b3c05e1b733"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1504951495232","data":"
Change is inevitable in the large scheme of things. Our entire existence is here because of change, evolution to be more specific. Change gave us the tools to survive the harsh weather of this planet over the 1 million years we've walked this planet, and it doesn't matter whether you accept it or not, it'll come for you anyway. It is simply a matter of time. <\/p>
And times have changed. The internet surely has brought us all closer but it has also built walls around people who would much rather keep their lives private than put it online, allowing one to forge connections. The Internet has allowed us to be who we truly are online, allowing us to use the written word to express what we cannot through speech, lending us confidence. But the fact remains that nothing is as strong and powerful in making connections as meeting someone in person and being charismatic. <\/p>
But you don't have to be the god of charisma to get through to people around you. The thing about socialising is that you almost always know someone or the other, and talking about interests and work is almost a given. That someone will introduce you to someone else and the chain will go on until you can meet everyone there if you only are enterprising enough to do so. The best part, of course, is that doing this can be learned. So use this Superpower well, and the rest will follow. <\/p>"}]
It is all about yesterday. <\/p>
I met this random old woman on the bus who had a different spark in her face because of which I couldn't resist talking to her. Luckily for me, she spoke first, asking me about my education and I asked her if she's retired now or does she still works. To my shock, an awesome reply came from her. <\/p>
She said she is a fashion designer, president of her area Mahila Mandal, a mother of three sons, and a loving wife too. But none of these caused me as much shock as this line did, she said- \" I have three sons, all three are married and I didn't take a rupee of dowry!\" <\/p>
I was curious to know the reason and as I asked she replied saying- \"Every girl after marriage leaves her home and comes to in law's home, she has been brought up in a different way by her parents and for any human to adjust at other's place and change her way of living which has been for so many years takes time. Being a mother-in-law as well as a mother I need to understand this fact and be patient for some years till she adjusts.\" When I heard this I couldn't speak out a single word. I was speechless.Another lesson learnt.-Shruthee<\/p>\n"}]
