The below story has made rounds in the Internet like wildfire, with different but similar versions. Thus sharing it here, for you to enjoy and perhaps it may speak to your inner thoughts and evoke certain thoughts? A woman works in a meat distribution centre as a high-ranking supervisor. One day, before knocking off, she decided to check out the meat in the freezer. After going through a few of them, she entered a freezer and to her horror, the door closed and she was locked from the outside. She tried screaming for help but no one came to her rescue as the structure of the freezer is made in a way that sounds cannot travel beyond the freezer. It would be 12 hours later before anyone opens the freezer—and by then, she would have frozen to death. Seeing that she could do nothing, she resigned to her fate, trying to keep alive as long as possible. She knew that within three to five hours, she would be dead, and that in the next three to five hours, no one would be in the...

Did you know that conscious impulses can travel at speeds of up to 140 miles per hour? If you think that’s amazing, consider the fact that unconscious impulses travel at around 100,000 miles per hour. The Human Brain has been called the fastest processor in the universe (at least, for now). Here are 11 more amazing facts about the absolutely unbelievable power of your mind that you will want to be aware of, because understanding your mind and how it works is pivotal to your ability to achieve your own goals and dreams. The Conscious Mind: #2) Comprises 17% of Brain Mass But it only controls 2-4% of your perceptions and behavior. #3) Looks for Patterns and Objects that are Familiar Interestingly, the conscious mind also rejects patterns and objects that aren’t familiar. #4) Is Where Your Free Will Lives This is the part of you that thinks and reasons, and it is also the part of you that will decide what kind of changes you need to make in order to liv...

Do Not Be A Prisoner Of Your Expectations

Whatever the mind of humans can conceive and believe, can be achieved. Think about it, many are prisoners of their expectations when they are not fortunate beginners or succeed after a few tries. You must be willing to fail until you do definitely and definitively succeed. "Failing forward" is the best way to be, for, through this technique, you ultimately succeed permanently through persistence of not just effort, but persistence of creativity. Creative persistence creates success. I am not at all writing about being stubborn or trying the same thing until you go insane. No, not at all. I mean persisting creatively until you do succeed, even if the failures seem infinitely happening and even endless at times. Everyone solves problems in existence, everyone fills a need in existence as they solve problems. The point to this sentence is, that is the thing that happens forever endlessly, without matter to how much "perfection" we achieve or greatness we achieve a...

Why the Government Must Tell 125 Crore Indians The Simple Truth about One Rank One Pension (OROP) * * * * * "Satyameva Jayate" (Sanskrit: सत्यमेव जयते satyam-eva jayate; literally "Truth alone triumphs") is a mantra from the ancient Indian scripture Mundaka Upanishad. It was adopted as the national motto of independent India . On 14 th August 2015, the Delhi police, which functions directly under the Central Govt, and the NDMC, by their action provided the much needed media exposure to the ESM agitation. It also united the other ‘sitting on the wall’ ESM organisations. On 11 th September 2015, in Chandigarh, the PM, by those few words re-invigorated the reportedly ‘factionalised’ ESM into protesting with much more vigour. Proof is the attendance at ESM rally on 12 th Sept...
Embracing Life's Number One Task

"Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfil the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." ~Dr. Viktor Frankl (1905-1997) Without any shred of doubt life is not life automatically because we live and breathe. No, life has a spiritual quality that only some partake in. Many take the common road, which is laden with the appearance of ease, but is indeed tougher than it needs to be. Few take the road less travelled. And few of the many actually see the advantage in how the few live. God gives people exactly what they want. Where a person insists on their own way, God insists they should have that freedom - a freedom to choose for bondage. Life's number one task - the chief objective - is to assess one's way and make proper passage, one decision at a time. We all have our problems, as we all have our tasks. Assessment is the first step in making a plan and executing it. By our assessment of thing...
THINK

T his is another story to share with you and it may make you pause and think for a while. A group of children are playing near two railway tracks, one still in use while the other disused. Only one child is playing on the disused track, the rest on the operational track. The train comes, and you are just beside the track interchange. You could make the train change its course to the disused track and save most of the kids. However, that would also mean the lone child playing by the disused track would be sacrificed; or would you rather let the train go its way? Let’s take a pause to think what kind of decision we could make. Most people might choose to divert the course of the train, and sacrifice only one child. You might think the same way, I guess. Exactly, I thought the same way initially because to save most of the children at the expense of only one child was rational decision most people would make, morally and emotionally. But, ha...
Thoughts Become Things-You Reap What You Sow

If there is something that children are good at, and adults never do any more, it is the practice of giving time to just think and dream. When we were just kids, we used to not have limits to our imagination. However, as we grew up, we forgot about dreaming and focused more on our daily worries. Is wishful thinking really wrong? If thoughts become things, you may wonder, then why didn't you become the president of your country, or a popular rock star, or the richest man in the world, when as a kid you did nothing but imagine these kinds of dreams? The answer to that is simple. It is because you stopped dreaming, or in a more realistic perspective, you stopped thinking about your goals and consequently also ceased to look for ways you can achieve them. You settled for whatever is available. You Reap What You Sow Consider your mind as a vast area of land where you can plant trees, crops or anything you desire. Your mind is a land of limitless opportunities. That l...
