You might have seen posts on the social media claiming that Engineering has been chosen as the toughest subject by the Guinness Book Of Records. Well, hard to break it to you but it\u2019s all a flat lie.<\/p>

Instead of chasing happiness, everyone today is chasing perfection.<\/p>

\nJulianne Moore<\/p>"}]
\n\u201cTell me about yourself\u201d is the one question often asked in an interview as I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about the interview, as I come across many during my drives from the past semester.\n<\/p>
And every interviewer asked it without exception. And this was the case for any person who appeared for an interview. What makes giving a self-introduction so important? Self-intro is through which we introduce ourselves to the panel or the interviewer. It seems vague, but that is what self-intro is in its entirety. And it also plays in setting the motion for the interview. <\/p>
\nSuppose in the resume you provided who domains you are working on, but in actuality, you are not confident in some of those. So, what to do? In your introduction, mention a project you are working on in the domain you are optimistic about. And accentuate your passion for that domain and exaggerate it as much as possible. This way, one can induce the panellists or interviewer to the path the interviewee is confident about.\n\n<\/p>
A good self-introduction sets the tone of the interview as well as provides an insight to the interviewer about oneself. But duds in self-intro can prove disastrous as creating the first impression is the cornerstone for an interview. <\/p>
\nWhat makes a good self-intro? A concise briefing about oneself in a confident manner touches every aspect of your resume and provides more info. Let me elaborate on what I said. A self-introduction has to be delivered confidently and has to provide more about oneself. One shouldn\u2019t recite what was already mentioned in the resume as a self-intro as it makes you look as unprepared. One has to prepare what to say for a self-intro before appearing in an interview and practice it many times to avoid forgetting it under pressure. <\/p>
\nAvoid saying what is present in the resume as it is try to elaborate on them if possible if not avoid it entirely. Don\u2019t spend much time telling about your education, try to keep it short. Give a concise statement about your achievements and elaborate on achievements or projects which coincide with the job profile. To make an impression that \u2014 you are one asset they shouldn\u2019t miss. Be as presentable as you can be with the tone of your voice without any stuttering. Tell the interviewer about your strengths and weaknesses. The strength should be that which is useful for the job profile. One doesn\u2019t have any problem selecting the strength but the issue arises in selecting a weakness. Because the weakness should be in a way that a positive outlook can be derived from it. For example, \u201c I get nervous when I am under a time crunch, but for good or worst I get more motivated to complete the work on time.\u201d And one thing to remember when selecting a weakness is that the positive outlook to be provided should not contradict the weakness but enhance it as a cornerstone of one\u2019s personality. <\/p>
<\/p>
\nSo, I hope this helps everyone who is reading in creating a good self-introduction.\n\n<\/p>"}]
I was coming out of a nasty bout of 6-month-long depression in 2018 when I posted this on my social media.<\/p>
Here\u2019s to all the broken souls. The ones who can\u2019t sleep at nights. The ones who stare at blank ceilings. The ones who down substances, good bad and ugly ones. The ones whose eyes never have a glint of happiness. The ones who can only fake a smile. The ones who hide behind anger. The ones who hide behind humour. The ones struggling with depression, anxiety, and more. The ones who think they have mental health issues. The ones who strive to make the world interesting because it\u2019s drab for them. The ones who are struggling to get out of bed every single day and get through the day. The ones who are told to just think happy thoughts and be done with it. The ones who think they\u2019re above the ones who smile. The ones who think they\u2019re below the ones who smile. The ones who are now awake, at this witching hour in the middle of the night scrolling through social media and wishing their lives were as good as the ones they see here. The ones who are misfits and the ones who think they\u2019re misfits. The ones who are judged and prejudiced against. The ones who are left by loved ones and the ones who push their loved ones away. <\/i><\/p>

Statistics show that 77 applications for jobs are submitted per second. On LinkedIn, there are 58 million companies. Do you believe having a LinkedIn profile is worthwhile? I'd like to explain how LinkedIn helps you to grow professionally.<\/p>
LinkedIn members (both employees and employers) can build profiles and connect with one another in an online social network that can simulate real-world business connections. LinkedIn enables quick and direct connections between job seekers and employers.LinkedIn has added a tonne of useful tools that might help you develop personally. A few of those that are valuable to a newbie is mentioned here.<\/p>
<\/b><\/p>
-People Networks<\/b><\/p>
You can follow or connect with people on LinkedIn. No restrictions for followers. However, you are permitted up to 30,000 connections.<\/p>
-Creator mode<\/b><\/p>
By granting access to various tools, creator mode enables you to find new ways to connect with your audience.<\/p>
-Frames<\/b><\/p>
By allowing us to use Frames, LinkedIn enables us to expose more information to potential employers. There are two frames: OpenToWork (for job searchers) and Hiring (for recruiters).<\/p>
-Create a Resume<\/b><\/p>
You may quickly create a resume for yourself using LinkedIn. Your profile's inputs will automatically generate it. So you may quickly construct a resume utilising this tool.<\/p>
-Profile video<\/b><\/p>
If you'd like, you can post a video introducing yourself. It will enhance your profile and have a greater impact.<\/p>
Suggestions for adding connections<\/b><\/p>
-Utilize your current network. Make sure to connect with the people you already know when you first construct your LinkedIn profile. To find friends, classmates, and coworkers, try syncing your email contacts and using LinkedIn's search box.<\/p>
-Ask to be introduced. If you haven't met the person you're trying to connect with previously, see if you share any connections in common with them. If so, you can ask one of your acquaintances to introduce you. Give your connection a chance to say no by being polite and politely explaining why you are asking for the introduction.<\/p>
-Keep the line of communication open. Keep interacting with someone on LinkedIn after connecting with them. Provide thoughtful comments if they publish status updates. Try to promptly respond to their request for recommendations or endorsements if they make one. Your relationship should be strengthened as a result, and new chances may arise.<\/p>
Consistent posting and interaction with other's posts<\/b><\/p>
Instead of posting sporadically throughout the month, sharing 2-3 times each week will be more beneficial to you individually. Spend some time organising your content at the start of the week. It's also a plus if you like, share, and comment on what your connections post.<\/p>
Funny fact<\/b><\/p>
LinkedIn just added a Funny (HaHa) reaction to the platform, proving that it is acceptable to have fun at work.<\/p>"}]
Meditation is an ancient practice that is being done ever since ages. Previously meditation was practiced for attaining salvation or to help human beings deepen their understanding of the sacred and mystical forces in life. As the times changed people now practice meditation for relaxation and stress relief. <\/p>
Important thing is, the practice is still existent unlike many other ancient cultures. Am I right? Meditation is slowly gaining its popularity among many people as they discover the many benefits that follow as an outcome to it. <\/p>
Let's find out why meditation should not go out of practice and how it can be done. Before we go to the how part of the question. Let's see why we should even practice Meditation on a daily basis. \n<\/p>
Meditation on a daily basis can bring a huge number of benefits both for Physical Well- being as well as mental well-being.It has many benefits that are scientifically proven. Even till date there are undiscovered benefits of Meditation. Meditation can help you keep the worries and stress in your life aside for a time being. Meditation can help to reduce stress, The chemicals that are released when a person is under stress can cause disrupted sleep, promote levels of depression, and increase anxiety. <\/p>
With prolonged stress levels it could also lead to fatigue and cloudy thinking. Meditating can help to bring your stress levels followed by decreasing other side effects that are followed with stress. <\/p>
Meditation can also help one to improve self-image and build self- confidence. It also helps one to trust in themselves better and achieve a positive outcome in life.<\/p>
It also helps you to improve your concentration. For students meditation can show great benefits. Meditation can help you think better and make better decisions. The perspective and way that you currently think will be changed and you can see yourself to turn into a better person.<\/p>
Now lets see how to perform a good meditation practice.<\/b><\/p>
1.Find a quiet and peaceful well lit place with a good vibe. Your room or the balcony at your house can be a great place to start.<\/b><\/p>
2.Spread a mat on the floor and be seated in a comfortable posture with your legs crossed. You could also lean onto a wall for support in the beginning. <\/p>
3. Set up your mood and a timer if necessary, playing soft music could also gt you into the vibe. <\/p>
4. Close your eyes and focus on your breath. Be well aware of your inhalation and exhalation. <\/p>
5. Feel your body become lighter with every inhalation and exhalation. Focus on the point between your eyebrows. <\/p>
6. Tell your mind intentionally to not wander to different other places. It is absolutely okay for your mind to wander. Return your attention to your breath when you realize you are wandering. <\/p>

Yes! It is that simple. You could do this anywhere and at any time. There is no fixed time and place that you have to do it.

What is the comfort zone? <\/b><\/p>
\nWe heard this word called the comfort zone a lot of times. And, people often say \"get out of your comfort zone\". So, what exactly is this comfort zone? I would like to define it as a<\/i> circle of<\/i><\/p>
effortlessness. <\/i><\/p>
\nOkay, let's imagine you are standing in a blank space. And, there's a circle around you colored in green and, the region outside this circle is in red. All the things which are easy to do, don't require second thoughts i.e. effortless and you can do these with your eyes closed. For example, brushing your teeth in the morning, I don't think we have second thoughts for this. As soon as you wake up, you leave your bed and grab a brush and toothpaste. Obvious! But, what if I ask you to meditate in the morning. Your first question will be \"But, why?\". See, second thoughts. <\/p>
\nDoes it mean out of comfort zone = good for us? <\/b><\/p>
\nWell, there's no one-on-one relationship between doing something out of the comfort zone and it being a productive task. For example, running is something out of our comfort zone and is good for health. On the other hand, walking is inside our comfort zone and still good for us. And, it's the same another way around if you are a smoker then it will be easy for you to smoke because it's inside your comfort zone but not good for you. But if you are a non-smoker and someone asks you to try it, you are gonna have a hard time over there, definitely not good for you. Boom! There's no relation between something which is out of your comfort zone, and it is good for you.<\/i><\/p>
<\/i><\/p>
If there's no relation between them then why do I need to leave my comfort zone? <\/b><\/p>
\nBecause the comfort zone shrinks over time. How? So, in the month of the march, I used to go running at 5 in the morning with my dad. After few days dad left for some work and I was alone but I didn't stop because I did it for a prolonged period and now it was a habit. But unfortunately, due to exams I stopped going out. Eventually, I stopped running and loved staying indoors. When the quarantine started, it was a great opportunity to go out for running. But as of now, waking up at 9 for online classes is a huge task for me and fails to do it at times.\n\nSo, did you see what happened? Just because I stopped doing a particular task that was out of my comfort zone, my zone shrunk over time. Now, even waking up at 5 is a huge thing because I go to bed at 4. <\/p>
\nSo, now you know why do you need to keep doing things around your comfort zone. Yes, I said around because going too far from your comfort zone can backfire( an article on this topic coming soon). So, you keep increasing the area of your comfort zone and keep growing.\n\nWill we back with another great article.<\/i><\/p>
Till then wash your hands, don't go out until it's urgent. Stay safe, stay healthy. <\/b><\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1588312441298","data":"5eabcbf52060b"}]
\"Networking is not about just connecting people. It's about connecting people with people, people with ideas, and people with opportunities.\" -- Michele Jennae.<\/b><\/p>
Your professional network can be useful in many facets of your job. The most obvious manner is by giving out leads for potential new jobs. Having a professional network also has the following advantages:<\/p>
1. Finding out about a job opening<\/b><\/p>
Your professional network can help you find a new job if you're looking to leave your current one or have already quit and are looking. The people in your network can advise you of any job openings in your sector that they are aware of and can equip you with any pertinent corporate knowledge.<\/p>
2. Improve your standing<\/b><\/p>
It is critical to be visible to others when advancing your career, from coworkers to potential employers. By establishing business contacts, giving your expertise on subjects you're familiar with, and offering your distinctive perspective on various business sectors, networking events will help you elevate your status within the community.<\/p>
3. The Reciprocity Rule<\/b><\/p>
In its most basic form, professional networking is about sharing and mutual assistance. If you give someone advice or create a beneficial introduction for them, they are much more likely to do the same for you in return. Social psychologists refer to this behaviour as The Law of Reciprocity.<\/p>
Therefore, the more you can do to support your connections in achieving their objectives, the more they will want to do the same for you.<\/p>
<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1664216474308","data":"6331a8aa6ca1c"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1664216474309","data":"
4. New Perspective and Ideas <\/b><\/p>
\nNetworking gives you fresh insights and ideas that can help you advance in your profession - it gives you viewpoints and ideas that you may not have considered previously. It's also extremely helpful to speak with folks who operate in fields other than yours because they can bring whole new views. <\/p>
\n\n\n5. Suggestions and Assistance from others <\/b><\/p>
\nYou shouldn't only network if you're seeking a new job or for personal benefit. The goal of networking professionally is to find like-minded individuals and develop meaningful connections with them. This might help you create a network of allies that will be beneficial to you in your profession. Whether it's about a specific work issue or your own professional development, our network can provide you with advice. <\/p>
\n\n\nRegardless of where you are in your career or what stage you are at, networking will be beneficial to you. Make sure you stay in touch with your network on a regular basis, even if it's just to send a quick email or a WhatsApp message to see how they are. <\/p>
As a network is more of a long-term endeavour, it is impossible to predict when it may lead to an opportunity, but it is never too late to begin establishing one. <\/p>"}]
Ever been through a day full of stress or you are absolutely tired without hardly doing any work? Maybe it's time for you to switch the way you start your day. \nIt is said that your mood for the day depends on how you start your day and it is important for you to know what best suits you and what is that which will keep you happy throughout the day. \n<\/p>
Here are a few things that you could do every morning for a better mood.<\/b>\n<\/p>
1.Channelize your positivity<\/b><\/p>
One amazing way for you to start your day is to give a few quiet moments to yourself and bring your positivity for the day every morning. This could be done in many ways, it could be by just sitting there in the morning sun quietly absorbing the required Vitamin D while enjoying the atmosphere. <\/b><\/p>
Meditation in a peaceful environment is another way to channelize your positivity towards you. It has been proven that regular meditation can help to lower blood pressure and also give a boost to your immune system. \n<\/p>
2. Scheduling your day<\/b>\n<\/p>
A day that is not scheduled will only lead it to be a chaotic mess. You wouldn't know where to focus your attention and you might miss out on certain important targets. Knowing what is going to hit you in the day is really important for you to be aware of the emotions that you are going to face which will help you to manage them better. \n<\/b><\/p>
Sit down every morning to sort out your priorities for the day and schedule your day accordingly. \n<\/p>
3. Think about things that make you happy<\/b>\n<\/p>
Rather than thinking about the things that will make you worry first thing in the morning. Allot at least 5 minutes of the day in the morning to think of the things that you are grateful for and things that make you happy or made you happy. <\/p>
It is important for us to see the positivity that we receive in life to be happy and also make others happy around us. \n<\/b><\/p>
4. Eat a Healthy Breakfast<\/b>\n<\/p>
It's a fact that has been told to us since ages that skipping your breakfast is not a good way to stay your day. Or in simple words, Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Have a good and healthy breakfast which includes all the essential nutrients that your body requires. \n<\/b><\/p>
Dr Porter says, \u201cWhen you skip breakfast, your body says, \u2018Okay, I need to conserve energy.\u2019 Then your metabolism slows down and you have less energy throughout the day.\u201d So don't forget to \u201cbreak your fast\u201d every morning. \n<\/p>
5. Pre-Planning your day<\/b><\/p>
Planning your day or scheduling the day can also keep you at peace in the morning. If everything is organised for the next day on the night before and you are mentally prepared on what you have to face the next day. Your morning will automatically be less chaotic. <\/p>
Imagine you didn't plan your day before and you wake up in a panic state about something you forgot to do but you somehow managed to finish it at the last moment. Your mood would continue to be in a panic state and worried about the last minute work and its end results.<\/p>
Therefore it's important for you to plan your next day before you sleep. \n<\/p>
These are only a few ways in which you could start your day. It is not necessarily essential that you follow only these habits for a better morning. There are various ways in which you could start your day positively. Explore what best suits you. Try various ways in the beginning and figure out what works best for you and how each thing you do affects your day.<\/b> \n<\/p>
Let us know about the methods that worked best for you. \n<\/b><\/p>"}]

The looks, the responses, the answers to the questions about myself, they all pointed at the fact that this friend of mine was only focused on gaining attention by crying about life in front of any and everyone.
