The Power of Power Pose

Image
   Have you noticed the reaction of the person who has triumped? Let it be Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps or Virat Kohli or whoever it might be (not just constrained to sports person). If you had noticed them carefully, you would have seen one thing common among everyone who has won  or achieved something. They would simply raise or spread both their hands in the air away from the body. Each and every part of their body seems to have spread outside. When you see them, you will understand that they are pretty confident and are having indomitable spirit. This is what I mean by the term "POWER POSE". The following are some of the images that depicts power pose. Michael Schumachar, the popular F1 racer The world's fastest man, USAIN BOLT Ajinkya Rahane, Indian Cricketer AR RAHMAN, the most popular music director When someone spreads their body outside like this, it gives them the feeling of power, the feeling of authority over the situation and the feeli

The MIND master

  Our mind is one of the most fascinating things in this world. Yet, we don't dedicate much of our time to know about it. There is a reason why I say that it is the most fascinating thing. Look around you. The gadgets, the automobiles, the households, etc were first created in one's mind before they were created in real. Our mind is an obsequious servant which works to carter our needs. It is a power house that has a lot of potential to drive the world. But the most intriguing question comes now. How to use these unlimited powers of our mind to create the things that we desire? To answer this question, I will narrate a small incident that most of you might have already known.            Swami Vivekananda, on his trip to America, found some boys shooting at the egg shells that were floating over the water. Every time they shot, they were missing the target. So swamiji, went to them and took the gun in his hands. He aimed at the egg shells and shot them. He fired several sh

Why criticism doesn't work? Here's the reason

             Have you ever heard a politician who has lost the election say "People have made the biggest mistake of their life. They are going to suffer a lot during this period"? Well, there are as many chances as sun to rise at 12AM, for you to have heard that. Instead they might say "Next time we will earn people's confidence and win the election" The politicians are well aware of the fact that criticising or condemning people for the failure in the elections, would make matter only more worser.                            Criticisms are very futile. They don't change the situation but contribute towards adding more fuel to fire. B.F.Skinner, the world-famous renowned psychologist from America, conducted a series of experiments on animals. The research concluded that an animal  rewarded for a good behaviour learns much more rapidly than an animal punished for a bad behaviour. Man is an animal with an extra sense and it applies to human beings as wel

Don't let your phone kill you

              We have reached a point where smartphones have become a integral part of our life. Life hardly seems to move on when we restrict ourselves from using them even for at-least one day. They have blended into our lives. Applications have made our life much simpler that if you own a smartphone, you own a camera, a torch, a alarm clock, and even much more. This is the reason why we are not able to live a life without them. Okay, now let's ask ourselves, are these smartphones killing us? The answer to this question, certainly is yes. Not only emotionally, they are killing people physically too. Yes, not only smartphones, a ordinary mobile phone is killing people. You may ask how a phone can kill someone, but the truth is  that there has been a considerable number of deaths around the world that has been caused due to the usage of mobile phone while it  is being charged.                For instance, a Australian women, who was an air hostess, was electrocuted while she

Using mobile phone in the dark - Nightmare to your eyes

Image
                  Recently, I found a lot of photos and messages regarding the threat to our eyes while we use the mobile phones at night in the dark. To find the truthiness behind these posts, I surfed the internet regarding this and found that it was true.                      A Chinese man was texting his girlfriend constantly for about six hours in the dark. The next morning what he experienced was strange. He nearly went blind. But with the recent advancement in the Ophthalmology, his eye sight was saved from blindness. Doctors say that what he experienced was retinal detachment, a condition which is mostly experience by the age of 50 to 75. It is a state where the retina (a sensitive layer behind the eye that reads light) detaches itself from the blood vessel that supplies it with oxygen and nutrients. Retinal detachment can also be caused by direct injury to the eyes. The retina becomes thinner and thinner and at one stage loses its tendency to read the light, which is bli

ICC #WT20 India vs Bangladesh, a match worth remembering for decades!

For those of you who missed yesterday's match between India and Bangladesh, I would say that you certainly missed a terrific horror movie, that would have let goosebumps occur all over your body. Yes! It was India who emerged victorious after a nail biting last over from Hardik Pandya. People with weak heart would have even succumbed while seeing the final over of the match. Well done Bangladesh         Bangladesh has emerged into a world class cricket team with most of its players, all rounders. Remember the 2007 world cup when India lost to Bangladesh in the group stage creating a wide outspread of violence all over India? During that time, Bangladesh was not a well rated team as it is now. Only a few good players were available in their side. But now, starting from the opener Tamim Iqbal to Mushfiqur. all the players are playing world class cricket like their counterparts India, Australia, etc proving that they are also one of the best cricketing teams in the world.
