Why reading culture is essential for growth.

 

We are an average of five people we surround with”. If you want to know anyone's salary then add the salary of their 5 friends divide it by 5 you will get that number or you just want to know any status of a person then look at the average of his/her close friend and you will get your answer. We are literally a result of our friendship and influence so if anyone wants to be great then there shall be a friendship of great people. But how can it be practical for us?

Well, it can be if you start reading. Remember, when you are reading you are listening to people who have accomplished something great in their life you get to be like a friend of the other and yes you get in the right influence. The reason I love books is that someone has his lifetime knowledge and he captures in the form of the book through a decade of work and we can get all that information through it.

 

When you look at the average person they read around 2 to 3 books a year whereas the average CEO reads around 50 books a year. If you observe a most common habit of ultra-successful people it’s reading, Warren Buffet at the start of investing used to read 500 to 600 pages a day, Bill gates every year reads 50 books and Elon musk who is creating a revolution in this world through his electric car the company, changing humanity through SolarCity and boring company and sending people to Mars. Do you know what made Elon Musk the way he is? Well, credit goes to his reading habit as a child. He used to read a lot. He even finished reading the entire library and re-read the encyclopedia before the new book arrives as a kiddo.

 

Reading is also a good exercise for our brain as all parts get involved during the act of doing it. There is nothing to lose only to gain, why don’t we start developing this habit?

HEALTH AND ENERGY

HEALTH AND ENERGY  (Why we should not eat rice and meat together? What are the things that we are doing wrong?) Talking about food, why is a very healthy diet essential? Imagine you have the best bike in the world and what you are doing is you are putting Diesel instead of Petrol, will it work? It will but for short term anyway it won’t work properly. And same is the case with our body and brain if we will not give it a proper food then same thing will happen. Let me talk about Steven Smith, a medical doctor he said, “Take care of your stomach for the first fifty years, and it will take care of you for next fifty years”.See here, we need energy to do great works or if we want progress in life. But want is happening is that we are doing everything wrong. We are taking wrong diet and because of which all our energy is being wasted on digestion of unhealthy diet that we consume, result we don’t have any remaining energy to do great works. There are so many things that we are doing...

Should Rapists Be Hanged ?

Women safety has been a matter of debate for almost an eternity now . Women all around the globe at some point of time in their lives have faced sexual harrasment,sexism,abuse and other forms of abuse or harrasment . Though society has become a bit more liberal and accepting than in the past but violence against women are only increasing. Rape cases are at all time peak ,justice for the victims is delayed or outright denied. So, how could we stop  this ? How can we ensure safety of women all around the globe? Most people today think that death penalty is the only way forward to stop this. It just shows how much we love violence though we have transcended ourselves from Chimpanzees to humans but we still have that animal instinct.

High School Love (Poem)

 I stepped into high school with heart full of fear And through the crowd I saw her Maybe I knew it right then, She could be my first high school love.  Her charm, her grace ,everything made me fall hard for her.  My First Day was quite fine  I wouldn't lie he wasn't a choice of mine. New place ,new people and new life  But love, love wasn't something of my type . One Fine day , I saw her again  With all my guts ,I picked myself up  But I couldn't utter a word  Since I was infront of my first crush ,my first high school love. But I started the conversation  And he listened to me with all his concentration. Soon he'd talk to me through calls and texts And I couldn't  help it ,and we became best of friends.  Soon friendship turned into "Love" Something that was never a part of interest of her  But I saw her change through time  Now she was gradually ,gradually was becoming mine . OHH! And I remember how we walked past the 29...
