The Power of Having a Consistent Routine

Consistent Routine is the foundation on which a personality stands .  Even spending 10 minutes a day on a particular habit helps you hone your skills on a subject .  Bad habits such as this, though, soon add up and your life begins to revolve around the ‘easy’ option more and more. Whilst, in the short term, this may leave you feeling very comfortable and relaxed, in the long term it’s going to lead to a build-up of tasks which will cause you an almighty headache. A consistent routine, however, can help you break these bad habits and become more productive.  http://www.lifeoptimizer.org/2017/04/28/the-power-of-consistent-routine/

Motivation versus Self Discipline

http://www.lifeoptimizer.org/2017/04/06/motivation-vs-self-discipline-habit-formation/ “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit,” said Aristotle. And in the realm of habit formation, motivation and self-discipline are the most recognizable players. Some tout self-discipline as the elixir for improvement, while others rally behind motivation as the way to make progress and enjoy the process. And you’ll also find people that pit the two against each other. But do we have to pick between them? To get to an answer, let’s take a closer look at motivation, discipline, and the roles they play in habit formation. A Closer Look at Motivation and Why People Crave It Let us first look at the definition of motivation: “A person’s desire or willingness to do something.” Feeling motivated about a project or personal goal can only do you good. Motivation is the fuel that propels one to go to the gym and exercise for the first time. It’s what dr...

The 25 Best Action Movies Of The 21st Century So Far

        We think it was Jean-Luc Godard who once said “the purest form of cinema is Tom Cruise dangling off something very high.” Well, maybe it was Bresson . Regardless, this week sees the release of “ Mission Impossible — Rogue Nation ,” the fifth in the long-running spy series that over the last twenty years has presented some of the most spectacular set pieces for the screen in modern times, and in a year when action cinema has been thrillingly revived, it marks a high point. The action movie has been around since 1903’s “ The Great Train Robbery ,” and when done right, it’s a form of pure cinema injected straight into the veins. It’s a very particular set of skills, one that’s thwarted many great directors, but in able hands capable of precisely choreographing a fight, battle, chase or showdown, to shoot them in inventive and thrilling ways, and to cut them to maximize tension and visceral qualities, the form can reach a level of transcendence. http://www.in...

 http://indianexpress.com/article/education/top-25-management-colleges-in-india-nirf-ranking-2016/     I have serious reservations on the findings and cannot agree that IIMB is better than IIMA or IIMC ...but let us respect the Ministry of HRD. All I know is that IIMB does good work for Government projects .  The Human Resource Development (HRD) Ministry has already released the top universities, management, engineering and pharmacy colleges list. This first-of-its-kind indigenous ranking framework for higher education institutions is in response to global rankings in which Indian universities and colleges usually do not fare too well. The ‘India Ranking Report 2016’ of the country’s government and private institution was prepared according to the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), an entity launched by the ministry in September last year for six categories. The framework has outlined a methodology to identify the broad parameters for ranking ...

It boosts circulation and digestion , and eases back pain . 2. Don’t skip breakfast. Studies show that eating a proper breakfast is one of the most positive things you can do if you are trying to lose weight. Breakfast skippers tend to gain weight. A balanced breakfast includes fresh fruit or fruit juice, a high-fibre breakfast cereal , low-fat milk or yoghurt, wholewheat toast, and a boiled egg. 3. Brush up on hygiene. Many people don't know how to brush their teeth properly. Improper brushing can cause as much damage to the teeth and gums as not brushing at all. Lots of people don’t brush for long enough, don’t floss and don’t see a dentist regularly. Hold your toothbrush in the same way that would hold a pencil, and brush for at least two minutes. This includes brushing the teeth, the junction of the te...
