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>"}]

Have you ever wondered what it takes to deliver a space that leaves a lasting impact? <\/i><\/p>
Imagine being in a room full of people, delivering a space, and receiving a standing ovation. <\/p>
Imagine being called up later and being thanked for facilitating such an amazing experience. <\/p>
Imagine being able to provide life-changing instances.\nall this because you know how to do one thing- captivate your audience<\/b><\/i>. <\/p>
So the question of the hour is- how do I captivate my audience? <\/p>
We've all attended spaces that have felt like forever. we've all been at a place where we'd kill to get out of there. we've all dreaded one of our lecturer's spaces. <\/p>
something that all of these lacks is one basic element- connect.\n <\/b><\/p>
LEARN TO CONNECT WITH YOUR AUDIENCE AND INTRIGUE THEM<\/i><\/b><\/p>
and how is it that you can do that?<\/p>
1) Start with the unexpected.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Start with a bang, not a whimper. listeners like spaces that ignite interest with the first sentence. <\/i><\/b><\/p>
Always remember the first 30 seconds is where you either break or make.<\/i><\/b><\/p>
2) Keep it concrete at the start.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Show a prop. Use language that appeals to the senses. Don't tax the audience right away.<\/i><\/b><\/u><\/b><\/p>
3) Tell a story.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways to connect with your audience. It creates a sense of relatability and also an emotional connection which not only captivates your audience but instills a sense of trust.<\/i><\/b><\/p>
Include a brief story in the introduction of your presentation that incorporates and delivers your message, energetically, and empathetically.<\/i><\/b><\/p>
4) Use their imaginations.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Open your audience\u2019s mind. Mentally engaging them creates an image in their head, as well as suspense. this goes a long way in setting the tone for the rest of the space. <\/i><\/b><\/p>
Try beginning a sentence with \u201cclose your eyes and imagine\u2026\u201d then follow with something that relates to your message.<\/i><\/b><\/u><\/b><\/p>
5) Make them laugh.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Laughter is the epitome of a space-safe. inculcate slight humor into your delivery. This causes your audience to feel more comfortable and engaged with your words.<\/i><\/b><\/u><\/b><\/p>
6) Imply action.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Set CTAs throughout your delivery space. Mentioning attainable goals each individual can take creates a sense of purpose. <\/i><\/b><\/p>
Use language such as \u201cWe can,\u201d \u201cWe will,\u201d etc. This gives your audience purpose, and inspiration, and gives them a feeling of involvement, thus creating a personal connection.<\/i><\/b><\/p>
7) Interact.<\/u><\/b><\/p>
Ask questions that make your audience think. Getting your audience involved creates a give-and-take relationship between the speaker and the audience. <\/i><\/b><\/p>
Having interactions with the audience is known to create a rather enjoyable experience when compared to enjoyable someone just speaking.<\/i><\/b><\/u><\/b><\/p>

The hype around the IT industry is not something to be taken lightly. It provides varied opportunities to everyone, irrespective of their domain. A person may be from a mechanical, civil or any other department \u2014 if they have skills in computer science, they can try for a job in the IT industry. Why? You ask. Who doesn\u2019t want to pluck the fruit at a jumping distance? As the students from other domains are also eyeing IT jobs, it is very competitive for the students for computer science. It\u2019s not like they can\u2019t try for other departments' jobs but can\u2019t the job offers for other departments are less in number and asks for high technical proficiency in that department. If it was not that hard, then the different departments\u2019 students would not search for an easy way out. That\u2019s how competitive getting a job in the IT field is, and it\u2019s not like there are fewer opportunities \u2014 there are many \u2014 and pretty good ones to top it off. That\u2019s why the competition is fierce for the in-home department students to land a job. So, they have to go the extra mile to keep their pride as a computer science student to be better than the students of other departments. <\/p>
\nAnd one thing to clarify is the jobs in the IT field also ask for high-skill Proficiency, but the offers and payouts provided are considerably more. I guess that\u2019s why others try for it. And one can learn many computer skills that a company asks for they, just have to put enough effort to learn. There are many sources outside the campus to learn computer skills compared to other departments.\n<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1664040936993","data":"632f24d979040"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1664040936994","data":"
So, what are the technical skills or hard skills one needs to start as a fresher in the IT industry? As a computer science student myself, I appeared for many drives and got a gist of the technical skills one needs to crack an interview. <\/p>
\nFirst and foremost, one needs to have above-average knowledge of the languages they mentioned in the resume. For a fresher, the interviewers sometimes are flexible and ask what language the interviewee is good in \u2014 but for some cases where a job asks for a particular language, then one has to be in a position to answer the questions. And for offers with an annual pay above seven lakhs, the technical skills one needs to have are also higher.\n <\/p>
The recruiters also want the students to have skills in database management, web development and data structure \u2014 not the case for every job offer because some offers only ask for coding capability, and some even ask for OS and CN, but that's entirely another case. <\/p>
But offers above ten LPA asks for domain-specific skills, and sometimes the students have to explain the projects they have worked on. This is strictly the case for computer science students with some exceptions.\n<\/p>
So, I hope this is informative to the one reading it well most of it is me being frustrated. But hope it\u2019s helpful.<\/p>"}]

It is an extension of activities for students pursuing higher education to increase their participation in community service, in addition to their curriculum.

History <\/b><\/p>
After the independence of India, the University Grants Commission (UGC) suggested a voluntary national service in academic institutions.\nIn 1958, Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru proposed in a letter to chief ministers of all states to consider the idea for graduate students and asked the Ministry of Education to come up with a concrete plan.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1664027274420","data":"
NSS was launched on September 24, 1969, by Dr. V.K. R.V. Rao, the father of NSS and then Education Minister of India, in 37 universities. Covering all states of India, NSS had 40,000 volunteers at that time.

The symbol for the NSS has been based on the giant Rath Wheel of the world-famous Konark Sun Temple (The Black Pagoda) situated in Odisha, India. The wheel portrays the cycle of creation, preservation and release. It signifies the movement in life across time and space, the symbol thus stands for continuity as well as change and implies the continuous striving of NSS for social changes. The eight bars in the wheels represent 24 hours of a day. The red colour indicates that the volunteers are full of young blood that is lively, active, energetic and full of high spirit. The navy blue colour indicates the cosmos of which the NSS is tiny part, ready to contribute its share for the welfare of the mankind.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1664027274422","data":"

In the past, power was in the hands of the strongest. Later on, it was with the wealthiest. But now, it is with the person who has connections. Let\u2019s not bother with the accuracy of my statements but delve into subtext. Some may agree with it, and some may not. But, it\u2019s not our conscience that dictates the rule \u2014 it\u2019s the society. Let\u2019s face it, connections with the upper echelon make life one hell of a lot easier. Well, that\u2019s what father said \u2014 I didn\u2019t get any of it, even a tiny-weeny bit. <\/p>
\nSo, he said that \u201cyou should make as many connections as possible during your college\u201d. Well, he has a point, but he was not entirely correct. That\u2019s what I came to know. We need good people around us as a person\u2019s worth is decided based on the people around him in this society. We can\u2019t associate with everyone we come across, and it\u2019s more true during our college days. One wrong move, and it\u2019s all in the gutter. Relationships can be so fragile more than glass. And it\u2019s not like we can be alone \u2014 that\u2019s just branding ourselves an outcast. It will be one depressing hell to live in as a society. \n<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1663960613728","data":"632dbacd0e8b7"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1663960613729","data":"
After realising that, I was confused about what to do or how to approach others. We need to come off as a guy approachable but not overbearing, a yes man but not a pushover, dependable but not transactional, a caring but not over the top. That\u2019s one hell of a list to pack. So, how my friend did it, I am going to share it with you. Not me \u2014 I am an introvert \u2014 he is an ambivert. <\/p>
Firstly have an ice breaker with as many people as possible, which will give a basic understanding. Don\u2019t mind coming off as weird in future it will bring a good laugh. \n<\/p>
Once that is done, you will subconsciously associate with them you want to be with. From there, it\u2019s just building a good bond. But that doesn\u2019t mean you have to be selective, and it\u2019s important to maintain a connection with everyone from whom you can learn something. And avoid those who are toxic with a handshake. <\/p>
It is important to be polite as well as assertive when needed and be grateful for the favour received and return it with a return favour, as any relationship builds on give and take. And try to form a win-win situation. When you have a strong network you will become a connector, connecting one person to another, which enables you for every information and can expand your network.<\/p>
And, this is most important to never lose a connection and try to reconnect. Every relationship expects a follow-up. Don\u2019t limit yourself to only your class or department or college try to connect with as many people as you can. You can even use social media like LinkedIn and be patient in building relationships. Be a person who can be dependable to others and an advisor in their tough times or a shoulder to lean on. <\/p>
\nI hope that this article reached everyone who wants to break out of their shell.\n<\/p>"}]
