WHY ADVERTISE?

PC: Importance of Advertising.

It is the age of marketing. Ads have become an indispensable part of our modern life. From old ways of beating drums to making announcements, we have arrived at the most advanced stage where there is no end in creative modes and methods of communication through advertisement. We see a banner here, and a leaflet there; celebrities endorsing products appear over the streets of our cities. Television, radio, newspaper, mobile and all sorts of media provide us with a message regarding some promo, offers and discounts. We also see ads printed on cars and other vehicles now and then. When we are surfing the internet or checking our mail, we get promotional messages. Information is being disseminated very fast as everyone is reachable through media. Information about products and services is at our doorstep and even inside the room, and that is because of advertisements. We learn about companies, their offerings and uses through ads. There are various brands with a variety of products, and we have unlimited options at our disposal. So, it means that a company’s success is now dependent on advertising efforts.

Today we are the recipient of exceptionally innovative ads which are the representation of best work of human imagination. In the early days, word of mouth was a predominant mode of advertisement, and it still holds the most potent ground. Today so many ads reach us, and it is not easy to find the most meaningful products of companies which are relevant to us. Ads give us the power to choose what we want. They also entertain us. In my opinion, they are a necessary evil, many of us do not like them, but people need them. No urban society can imagine life without them.

We have seen many things from our shoes, and we must see things from other’s perspective to understand how beneficial ads are. The process of making the smallest ad to the biggest one requires a workforce with skills, money and machinery. So, even before an ad is made, jobs are created; capabilities are added in people to cater to demand, and creativity is attained as a result of the process. Ads are also used for job offers. They also encourage healthy competition in the market since best ads make their products and services sell while others lag.

From the music industry to the acting industry, from writers to dancers, everyone is involved in the process of ad making to make it lucrative. People are making their fortunes and bread and butter from advertising. However, every coin has two sides and ads to have a negative side to it. Some ads mislead, and we have to be careful and decide to choose wisely. It is a fact that we have been bombarded with so many ads for so long that we get irritated once in a while and wish they were gone. Sometimes, they come to places where they should not, in front of the audience which should not watch them. We witness this when we surf the internet, and a pop-up flash or misleading ad comes up. Many companies obtain our personal information without our notice and target us with their advertisements. This activity is highly unwarranted, and the initiation of it violates our privacy. They become a source of irritation and frustration when they become invasive. For instance, we are watching a movie or any program on TV. We see that commercial break that is inserted in between that program has unsolicited ads which make our experience less than enjoyable. Even in our electronic mails, we receive fake lottery notices. They make doubtful claims and take away our trust from the boons of ads. They also are infamous for manipulating our spending habits as we engage in consumerism. We have been victims of false decision making due to the overwhelming impression of ads.

Since many are invading our personal space and life, we need a watchdog to oversee and monitor the advertisement industry. Young minds have been corrupted, indulged into bad eating habits, desiring fashionable items and dreaming of leading an unattainable celebrity-like lifestyle. Status is attached to products, and so people aspire for them. Companies hire highly paid social psychologists to move among the people and feel their pulse. They advise their employers, in most cases, how to deceive the gullible customers just for selling the goods and services by hook or by crook. Hidden languages in the advertisement are common. Only the glitter is shown, and the dirt is hidden. Unwary viewer falls prey to it.

We must check, control them, put them under the ethical radar through authorities and take actions against violence. Only then will an atmosphere of good advertising will take place.

A Story of African Diamonds…

It’s a far cry from the clean, mechanized mines of South Africa, but it’s how much of Africa’s gemstones are mined: men dig by hand in pits, gravel and stream beds, looking for telltale signs of that elusive stone that will make them rich – or at least bring in enough money to sustain them and maybe secure the family’s future. Over one million diggers search for diamonds this way in Africa. They make less than a dollar a day,  while the global diamond trade nets an estimated $80 billion a year. But, economic woes are not the only human toll of the gem industry.

In countries like Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Sierra Leone, diamonds were used by armed militias and rebels to fan civil war and inflict misery on the population. These became known as “blood diamonds.” Global Witness was one of the first non-governmental organizations to focus on the issue. Speaking with VOA in London, Annie Dunnebacke says the group set out to document the tragedy of conflict diamonds. “Sierra Leone is one of the most notorious cases where hundreds of thousands of people died as a result of the conflict that saw the eastern part of the country, where the diamond fields are, controlled by the Revolutionary United Front, a rebel group backed by then Liberian president Charles Taylor,” says Dunnebacke. “Horrific destruction and havoc were wreaked, especially upon the civilian population really, because the diamonds represented an economic incentive for the war to continue.”

The horrors of that war shocked the public, especially the scenes of innocent men, women, and children with their limbs cut off by rebels, and youngsters being forced into combat. Efforts to publicize the link between the atrocities, the warlords, and the diamonds paid off.

The movie Blood Diamonds helped. In it, Leonardo DiCaprio plays an ex-mercenary who sells arms to Sierra Leone rebels in exchange for diamonds. In the end, though, he gives up the business and helps publicize the illicit trade. Global Witness was an advisor on the film, and Annie Dunnebacke says it had an impact. “I think bringing the message is sort of Hollywood terms to a much wider audience than possibly our reports get to, it does have value,” she says.

Eventually, international pressure made the diamond industry sit up and listen. In 2003, the Kimberley Process came into being. It requires member governments to certify that exports and imports are free from blood diamonds. Industry associations said they would comply. Tom Tweedy is a spokesman for DeBeers, the world’s largest producer of. He says the Kimberley Process is a good way forward. “We have a system, and however imperfect it may be, it is probably the only comprehensive system of its type in the world,” says Tweedy.

At the World Diamond Center in Antwerp, Director Philip Claes says that before the Kimberley Process, conflict diamonds accounted for 4 to 15 percent of rough diamonds traded worldwide. “Today, conflict diamonds account for only 0.2 percent of all rough diamonds traded worldwide,” says Claes.The emphasis is on certifying the origin of the diamonds to weed out goods traded illegally. Annie Dunnebacke of Global Witness says it’s a good start but there are loopholes.

“There are huge weaknesses ranging obviously from porous borders in African artisanal producing countries and basic lack of infrastructure, corruption, things like this which are stopping the scheme from being implemented effectively, things that encourage a lot of smuggling, cross-border smuggling,” she says. In Johannesburg, diamond trader Janine Chaveau agrees. “I know quite a few people who are multi-millionaires who have never dealt in legal diamonds,” she says, “it’s always been illegal, blood diamonds.”

Chaveau says she has been offered many undocumented diamonds. She says if they don’t have papers, she doesn’t touch them. But, it’s not just diamonds that are causing trouble. More than 90 percent of the world’s rubies come from Burma, a poor country with a military government that controls the sale of gems. The trade helps maintain the government in power. Human rights activists are working to tighten sanctions against Burmese rubies. But, like with diamonds, the potential profits are large and many are willing to look the other way.

Rights activists are hoping consumers will start to ask more questions of the jewelers to make sure that the gemstone they buy is not sullied by anguish and blood.

Breaking Bad vs Prison Break

The greatest difficulty lies in answering this question. Everyone will have their perspective of opinions regarding these most popular series. It’s definitely a fight between two well written scripts. The thrill everyone felt while watching the episodes can’t be described in words. Both the series had to end in a natural way because dragging it can make worse. But Prison break had made a way back in the year 2017 and released a finale which performed quite well.

Breking bad had broken many hearts. Most of the actors have won Emmys for their performance. The actors never appeared to act because we feel that they are living their orginal characters. May be director took the correct choice of characters or he created the characters according to them. The acting was so natural that it doesn’t seem like acting. The conversations were real. They spoke in a normal way. We don’t see them, we only see the characters. The creater of the show Vince Gilligan tried to portray the character of main lead as bad as possible, but we still try to take the side of the hero. Every character is so different and will imprint a everlasting impression. The villian of the show was so calm and dangerous. The less he spoke, the more we fear. Guss Fringe’s character had a great impact along with the lawyer named Saul. Their characters became so popular that the creater made another show named as Better call Saul which is the current popular show in television. Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul played the main leads namely Walter white and Jesse Pinkman respectively. Vince tried to end the character of Jesse in the season 1 itself. Due to the bonding between two leads actors he changed the script. The story after the series is depicted as movie named as The Breaking Bad movie. Special mention to Dean Norris who played Hank character made the audience emotional. The greatest characters of tv series definitely appear in this show. The way the actors took this show to another level is seen in the number of Emmy awards they won.

Prison break is my most favourite show and remained to be in top position since then. The screenplay of each episode makes us to see 90 episodes. Each episode is worth watching. The story appear to be predicted and in the mean while it turns into unpredictable. Every twist we witness will be forgettable because we have to witness the twist after the twist. It’s never ending process. The excitement we feel will never be felt.The characters will play with our emotions and we involve into such a extent that we urge to see all the episodes in a hurry. We tend to know about the next happenings. Every character has equal importance and will be remembered. Each character has a strong story. The nervousness about the show will definitely make us dream about it. We can’t sleep because we will be busy thinking about the show. Every tv series watcher should give a try because you will never know what you are missing.

Finally I want to conclude that both the shows have gained immense popularity. Breaking bad makes us to know what actually real acting meant whereas Prison break makes us feel the thrill with its screenplay and excellent unpredictable story . For me it’s definitely Prison break because it never made me sleep.

The cover drive masters…

The cover drive is a special type of shot which requires fine wrist work and well-timed striking of ball to hit the ball into the cover-side area which is towards off side of batsmen. This shot is historically a famed one and the players who have mastered it are considered to be finest players of the game.

The stroke became historically famous during the golden era of cricket in nineteenth and early-twentieth century when cricket England started classifying players as Amateurs and Professionals. The amateurs mastered the off side shots while professionals practiced the leg side shots like flicks around the wicket.

When it comes to cricket, many interesting stats arise, one such is of playing cover drive in tests which has derived almost 40909 runs. Over the years the legacy of playing this shot has been passed on from legends like Mark Waugh, Micheal Vaughan, Sourav Ganguly to current stars like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Steve Smith, Kane Williamson and many more. 

The Leaders by Average:

While playing cover drive though Virat has scored 1038 runs off this shot and is the only player to do so ,he has been dismissed 14 times while trying to play it taking the average to 74.1 runs per dismissal. This is quite healthy average but interestingly he ranks 25th among top 45 batsmen who have scored 300-plus runs off this shot. 

The leading are South Africa’s Aiden Markram ,Faf du Plessis and pakistan’s Asad shafiq. Markram has scored 338 runs off cover drive without a single dismissal and Faf du Plessis has scored 542 runs of 2 dismissals giving him fantastic average of 270. 

Right vs Left- who plays it best:

The stats are revealing that left-handers are better players of the shot than right handers. It is clear that left handed players are edging the righty players for playing the shot. In fact the stats reveal that from over last 40-60 years left handers have edged right handers over the average runs per dismissals while playing the shot.
PERIODRIGHT-HANDERS’ AVERAGELEFT-HANDERS’ AVERAGE
1965-7435.9339.54
1975-8435.0937.06
1985-9435.6938.87
1995-28.7434.86

It is not wrong to say that left are right in this case.

Conclusion:

It is very interesting that cricket analytics have each and every information right from dot balls played by a player to the sixes he has bet.The cover drive has been always difficult as well as favourite shot of many legends. 

One more attack = Indo-China WAR!!!

The relation between Indian and Chinese army are now being worse. India holds a record of never attacking any of the army first till date. Many near by countries think that India is weak and cannot attack first, but this is our spirituality and religion to avoid any fight, but when the things get worse there need to be done something. India never approach any army for fight it always keep the things calm and to solve the problem with words and not the wars. India always gave a extraordinary action in case of any mischief done by the opponents, India carried out many operations like:

  • Operation Vijay
  • Operation Meghdut
  • Operation Surya Hope
  • Operation Brasstackes
  • Operation Cactus and many more to list…

India also gave a very strong answer of the Pulwama attack. India has the strongest army and technology support from Russia and US.

World Picnic Day…

We celebrate world picnic day on 18 June, and It’s often claimed that life is no picnic but today it is! International Picnic Day is a chance to eat out in the open air with friends or family. The word “picnic” comes from the French language, and it’s believed this type of informal outdoor meal became a popular pastime in France after the Revolution. As fans of Jane Austen’s novels will know, 19th-century picnics were elaborate social occasions, with menus featuring a wide range of cold meats and pies that took days to prepare. International Picnic Day is celebrated in many countries, though its origins are uncertain. Charity events, school picnics, and all kinds of other group meals are organized to mark the occasion. You could also bike, walk or hike to a nearby beauty spot, or just take your sandwiches and cold hard-boiled eggs into the garden and enjoy an al fresco lunch.

International Picnic Day is observed on June 18, every year. It is a day to encourage people to go outdoors and enjoy a hearty meal in nature, with other people’s company. In the early days, people used to go on a picnic as an escape from their daily lives. The true origin of International Picnic day remains unknown, but it can be traced back to the end of the French Revolution and the Victorian Era. This day is also marked by various charity events and school picnics. People all around the world meet their friends and family and go on picnics. They generally used to carry food, outdoor games, soft drinks, juices, and other essentials to share it with their travel partners. According to the Guinness Book of World records, the largest Picnic took place in  Portugal. In Australia’s Northern Territory, the International picnic day is celebrated in August on the first Monday of each year. It is a popular concept in that area and the general public gets a day off on this day. Schools and Colleges are also shut on this day.

Asian people do not give any importance to the picnic day, and this day always celebrated in Australia and the U.S., Australian celebrate Picnic Day events since the late 1800s in Northern Territory. The Harts Range Races in Central Australia are held each Picnic Day long weekend. The races began in 1946 when three brothers Bennett, Quinton, and Kil Webb from Mount Riddock Station raced stockman Jack Schaber and the regional policeman Senior Constable Bob Darken over a distance of about a mile to the Ulgarna Yards to determine who had the fastest horse.

Moreover, in the U.S., Picnic Day is organized by a board of directors consisting of 18–20 students, ranging from different backgrounds and talents. Directors are full-time students and active participants of other extra-curricular activities and events at UC Davis. Every year, the board of directors selects a theme that will reflect the mission and vision of that year’s Picnic Day, and they also organized a different kind of themes and parade marshals each and every year since 1942 the themes started and in 1962 the parade marshal was started.

Here are some advantages and benefits of a picnic:

  1. Spending time outdoors, basking in nature, breathing fresh air, and enjoying a great view. The pure air invigorates you and leaves you feeling rejuvenated.
  2. Spending time with family is always a great bonding experience. In the fast-paced, urbane lifestyle of today, there is often limited time for maintaining relationships with some of the most important people in your life.
  3. Since picnics often take place in warm environments, the tendency to participate in relaxing small talk is high.
  4. While picnics offer many social benefits, you don’t have to spend the entire time chatting up a storm.
  5. Meals prepared and eaten at home are usually more nutritious and healthy than eating out and particularly so when you bring food for a picnic.
  6. Eating lunch outdoors is a natural mood booster. You can be amazed at how much the lack of sun in your body can affect your mood.
  7. Picnics are a great stress buster as it helps reduce the stress and anxiety related to work and home.

Please, spend time with family at outdoor and spread awareness regarding it.

thanks for reading.

 

“Valuing Picnics -This International Picnic Day”.

Human beings have been living on this planet since ages  working hard for their survival, finding food, water and shelter to life. These activities are still a part of many individuals as they do travel not for fun but for finding jobs and better homes. In earlier times, men used to stress a little less as they didn’t have much to worry  about. Spending Time with their family, friends and even animals and thus led a peaceful and happy life. In earlier times happiness meant to have proper food with loved ones, with water and shelter. But with the definition of happiness changed and transferred to things and materials. People were happy buying cars, bikes, homes and watching movies, playing video game and this got addicted to those. Man has spoilt his life working all day long, making his/ her feel like a couch potato. 

But sooner the idea of recreational activities started to flow and people became fascinated towards these thoughts . They often thought of going and doing these activities which included trekking, hiking, travelling to mountains, enjoying the beach, river crossing, paragliding, skydiving  and many more. People used to enjoy their weekoffs by these activities which not only helped them feel relaxed but also remain happy and spend time with their closeone. Excluding all these, there is one more activity, which people used to don, but has seen a significant decline which is Picnic. “Picnic” includes having meals outdoors, playing games and having the essence of nature and enjoying it. It generally includes a visit to outdoor having a better view, may be park, lakeside, or beachside or any it get, bring any individual close to nature and their close ones. People most often went on these drives and enjoyed picnics. Also “International Picnic Day” is celebrated around the world on 18th June and people around the world come together in their local areas and visit local parks, enjoy nature, lay down on sheets and have a better view of mountains or rivers or beaches while enjoying their food and many more. So it’s a day full of compassion, emotion, togetherness and understanding each other. 

But it seems to be reducing these days. People hardly have time for these or any recreation activities, working all day along working on their projects and the race to earn more money. This really affects relationship status with the close ones and even social relations. But the need of the hour is the shift one thoughts and priority from materialistic world to the more spiritual and show affection towards the living ones around us. Greed for money has led many dynasties to destroy, and relations to get smashed away. We need to understand that these times of happiness while on picnic or trekking or any other activity help us fight our bad times with our closed ones. This not only brings back the culture of sharing ideas but also shares out what any individual bus is going through. Support of family and friends help any individual to come up and win at any situation. 

“So the main motive of Picnic and other recreational activities is to understand and improve our relationships in this tough world, make more memories and aroma of happiness and enjoy nature and it’s beauty. Time needs to be devoted as the first priority to these activities, thus making our relationship strong, unity in thoughts and strength in the individual personalities”. 

“ABOUT” SECTION OF FACEBOOK


If you are visiting a brand page for first time, you should know exact details of “about” section. The “about” section is similar to that of tutoring which provides the additional details. This section provides the details like location, phone number,DOB, etc. The first things visitors see upon landing on a facebook page is “about” section and updating the information in this section is very important.
Sometimes the users may not be aware of the exact usage of this section, there is an individual link called help which provides the exact terms and conditions which are designed by the facebook. By this everyone can easily understand those conditions.
For providing the details of this particular section, there is no requirement of prior preparation. The “about” section only provides the original details of an individual or a company and hence for giving out these personal details, preparation is not required.
College students can usually be hired on at relatively affordable rates. Hiring students early gives them a chance to learn the ropes of your company while they are still in school, so they can be at their full potential once they’ve graduated. But some employers make mistake of not considering the needs of college student recruits by making applications and pre-hiring assignments. This means providing unclear hiring requirements,requiring intense rounds of interviews, or offering all the wrong benefits for college students. Students always mention their education details in their “about” section which is helpful for the recruiters.
Sometimes we can also keep our “about” section private. For this we can make changes in the edit section,which will expand the section and allow you to choose who,if anyone ,sees the relevant information. To keep anyone from seeing it, click on “only me” under “who should see this”.
FaceBook also provides live option which can be irrespective of the “about” section and accounts whether it may be a private or a public account. There are certain steps which should be followed before going into live, like checking the internet connection and also notifying your followers, etc. Since FaceBook have been made virtual, it is very useful for the users to overcome their inconveniences.
FaceBook have been the best photo sharing app before the emerging of instagram. FaceBook have certain conditions for sharing the photos. The “about” section also gives out the best and all required information about an individual or a company.
The recruiters notices all your accounts in social media inorder to track the details of the particular employee. Whenever they view the “about” section, they can easily identify whether the individual suits their company or not. English which you use in the “about” section clearly indicates your proficiency in English.
FaceBook also allows to update the “about” section. Due to the growing technologies, all of the requirements were made online. Hence when we on the internet connection,all social medias indicate your presence as online or certain indications.

But when considering about the technology developed in online made us stay away from our members. Those members may be family, friends,etc. Hence we can easily conclude that this online mode has major disadvantages than the advantages.

“An animal’s eyes have the power to speak a great language.”

It has been a long time since there is a debate, whether animals have been exploited for humans’ needs. However, More than 200 million animals are killed for food around the world every day – just on land. Including wild-caught and farmed fishes, we get a total closer to 3 billion animals killed daily. That comes out to 72 billion land animals and over 1.2 trillion aquatic animals killed for food around the world every year. In the United States alone, around 9 billion chickens hatch every year for the sole purpose of growing to an edible size and dying for human consumption. Animal suffering is the most direct consequence of consuming meat, but there are unintended consequences of eating animals, too.

All-around the globe, animals are used in a different way by humans to fulfill their need, they use it as food, making shoes, jewelry, irrigation, medical research, end experiments. Is it justified to use animals to human’s personals needs? not all animals grass-eaters, they also have to kill or hunt to fill their stomach, Video from the first large-scale investigation of intensive fish farming in Europe shows fish thoughtlessly scooped out of nets and thrown into plastic containers, where they slowly asphyxiated, Some of them miss the bin and flap to death on the floor. This video was disturbing, Some fish survive out of water for hours on their way to the slaughterhouse. If they’re still breathing when they get there, they die by a blow to the head. Nearly 300 wild sea animals are killed every year to feed one American, but that doesn’t include the fishing industry’s bycatch.

Considering the number of Americans that claim they only eat humane meat, it’s worth a quick math lesson. If 99% of farm animals in the U.S. are raised on factory farms, compared to about 90% globally, and 75% of Americans think they consume humane meat, the survey says that most of them don’t. Animals raised for food die by the millions in slaughterhouses around the world, and they do not think before eat. but the main thing is that animals also take revenge by spreading life threating viruses like swine flu and plague, even though human-made vaccines of these viruses, it had taken lots of human life.

If I talk about India, each and every day many animals have been killed by humans, even though the majority of the population is Hindu, and the coastal area also famous for fishing and fish farming, many famous franchises like K.F.C, Mc.donald, Subway, and Burger King provide chickens, beef, meats, poke, and many other animals eatable product. furthermore, in the fashion industry like L.V., Gucci, Prada, Zaara, and more,  provide clothes and fashion accessories like a leather purse, belts, leather shoes, and jackets that are obtained from animal’s flesh.

On the other hand, if we talk about science and research, in that process animals always be preyed by the scientist, and in recent news, they narrated that “Tests of other fast-tracked vaccines show that they have prevented infections in the lungs of monkeys.” they are so mean to not test on human or own self, they also not have an idea that there are lots of difference between the skin and immune system. there are many alternatives to reduce the suffering causes of animals.

Additionally, in India, there are many N.G.O.s, which always stands for animals rights, People for Animals India does a great job by saving street dogs in COVID-19 situation by serving food, shelter, and medicines. however, not only N.G.O.s but all people around the world stand for mutated animals, and if you wont to do great help, join the nearby N.G.O.s and save animals.

Be the follow “live and let live”

 

 

How to open a Franchise without money- US…

let’s talk about to open a franchise with no money so the first thing you can do, if you want to open a franchise with no money down is go to your friends and family look. I understand that that’s something that you may not want to do sometimes that’s a toughest conversation asking friends and family for money but I would assume if you’re willing to open a franchise and you have some skill sets you have a certain level of intelligence and a certain level of ambition so assuming that you have a good reputation and a good rapport with your friends and family then that’s the first place that you can go to get money to fund your franchise.

Now when you’re approaching them for the money it’s important to be tactical and strategic about it and you don’t just say hey! can I borrow ten thousand dollars can I borrow twenty thousand dollars can I have fifty thousand dollars you have to go into it strategically so go into it with a business plan this is the franchise that I want to buy this is the amount of money that I need to get started this is a lot the amount of money that I think I will make with the franchise this is the time period which I can pay the money back to you and get on that loan repayment plan, another way to approach getting money from feds and friends and family to fund your franchise is to ask them to be a partner with you so although they may not want to work in the franchise themselves maybe they’re more willing to give you money or lend you money for the franchise if they are an owner or an investor with you so maybe you’re the one that runs the franchise and you handle the day-to-day operations the sales managing the staff managing the overall business and they get a percentage of the profits as a way of paying them back.

The next way that you can fund a franchise is to get a loan and before you read about that real quick with the franchise so now in getting a loan to open a franchise business it’s important to note that one you’re going to need to have good credit and two you’re going to need to have an income that can support paying back. The loan and three the likelihood is you are still going to need money for the down payment on that loan if you get us an SBA loan which is Small Business Administration they require a minimum of 10% down from you in order to fund that business so what does that mean if you need $100,000 for your franchise business then that means you need to come up with $10,000 in order to here that loan so the question is how will you come up with that $10,000 and there’s a number of options that we’ll go over in a second of how you can do that one way you can do that is what we already talked about which is getting money from friends or family it’s so even with the Small Business Administration having a ten percent minimum requirement that you have to put towards the loan in order to open a business.

Most lenders that issue SBA loans are going to require anywhere from 20% to 30% in order for you to secure that loan so again in that example if you’re looking to open up a business that’s a total of $100,000 you’re going to have to figure out a way to come up with twenty to thirty thousand dollars in order to secure that loan and so in a second I’m going to tell you about a strategy of exactly how you can do that without having to ask your friends or family for money another way that you can fund a franchise without having any money so to say is seeing if you have any 401k or retirement plans now as someone who has managed over a hundred million dollars over the course of career as a financial advisor typically. I would not recommend for someone to take money out of their 401k and that’s not what I’m recommending to you. So, I want to make sure that you get that clear because there are severe penalties and tax consequences that you should consult the tax advisor about but there are ways that you can leverage your 401k so if you’re still working with your employer you can take out a loan against your 401k in order to fund a business and when you take out a loan there’s one thing that you have to be very careful about the thing that you have to be careful about is that if you leave that employer and you have an outstanding loan they are going to make you repay that loan within a certain period of time usually it’s 60 days if that is the case if you don’t come up with the money and repay the loan for the 401k they count it as an early distribution you’re going to have to pay taxes on that money depending upon if it’s a pre-tax 401k and you may have to pay some penalties. 2 guys opened up first location they were going to need 300 just over $300,000 in order to get first location open so they had a significant equity in their home at that time and want to went ahead and apply for a home equity loan they secured a three hundred and ten thousand dollar home equity loan use that home equity loan to fund the business and to pay for the business about a year or so later they actually wind up moving they sold their house the home equity loan was paid for paid off and now they own the franchise in the business completely outright don’t have any loans on the business and then the last way that you can potentially buy or open a franchise with absolutely no money is to talk to the franchiser again it’s not about the resources it’s about your resourcefulness so it never hurts to ask them and to make a pitch if you’re truly excited and confident about the opportunity.

What to do at the time of depression!!!

If you’re depressed to feel a little bit better and I want to make sure you understand what those are but first I want to start by helping you understand what the typical signs and symptoms are:

1- One of the most common signs of depression is a feeling of sadness or irritability that is really pervasive and doesn’t seem to go away no matter what you do if you’re with friends if you’re by yourself the sadness just sort of becomes your reality irritability can also be present and this is much more typical in teens that they will present with more irritability than sadness when they’re dealing with depression.

2- Feeling really hopeless and this can be hopeless about getting better it can be a sense of hopelessness about the future and the ability of sort of achieving your hopes and dreams and again it’s a very tough symptom to deal with because other people can tell you, know you have so much to look forward to or this great thing is happening in your life but if you’re really struggling with depression that hopeless this just kind of takes over and keeps you stuck.

3- You should be aware of is something called anhedonia. This is really a fancy way of saying a loss of interest in things that you previously used to enjoy so for example you might really be into gardening and all of the sudden you find that no matter how many times you garden or if you try to garden there’s just not the same joy that you’re getting out of it that you used to or maybe you used to really be really social and enjoy spending time with your friends and you find that you just can’t bring yourself to get out of the house and to go and interact with these friends and it’s really difficult to deal with because it’s very hard to motivate yourself. When the things that really used to be what got you out of bed and got you ready for the day no longer hold the same enjoyment and pleasure.

4- Either decreased concentration and/or indecision the difficulty with making decisions and this can be really difficult when you have to function either in the workplace or you have a lot of responsibilities at home because you’ll find that it’s harder to complete the tasks that you need to complete and if you do need to make decisions there’s almost like this decision paralysis where you find that you just can’t get yourself to the place of making choices.

5- You should be aware of our changes in sleep and this can be either that you find yourself sleeping a lot more than you used to and having like a really hard time getting out of bed maybe you’ve never been a Napper and all of the sudden you’re taking a nap every day on the other side of the spectrum many people who are struggling with depression find that they can’t sleep that they’re racked with insomnia for the first time in their life and they’re laying in bed and their thoughts just keep running around and they’re feeling sad and they’re feeling hopeless and so either too much or too little sleep is a really cardinal sign of depression that you should be aware.

6- You should be aware of our changes in appetite or weight and this can be either in the positive or the negative depression sometimes when people are depressed they find that they use food for comfort and end up eating a lot more than typical and gaining weight and sometimes when people are depressed they lose their appetite completely and don’t eat at all and find that they lose weight so if you’ve had any significant weight changes within the last couple months and you also have some of the other signs and symptoms we’re talking about it might be a good idea to consider that there’s some level of depression going on that you’re struggling with so another.

7- Lastly sign of depression that we’re going to talk about today is a sense of worthlessness so and really this is very difficult for people to handle because it’s a sense that no matter what they do they’re not enough their life is not enough and it won’t ever be enough and this is such a difficult thing to be dealing with and so I think my overall message as you’re learning about these signs of depression is that if you’re experiencing these please reach out and make an appointment with a licensed professional to talk about this because this is something that can get better and you don’t need to struggle with it on your own if you think that you or someone you love might be struggling with depression please reach out and make an appointment with a licensed professional for an evaluation there are many therapeutic techniques that can help you or someone you love feel better and so I strongly encourage you not to hesitate to get the help that you need.

The biggest question of the hour has turned out to be”when will this pandemic meet an end?”.But it is necessary that we must focus on life after corona.

This corona virus has taught us many things ,it has helped in integration of people not only in the country but also worldwide. This virus has taught us that discrimination of people on basis of caste,religion,region has no sense. It has also became agent of mother earth wherein it brought the pollution levels significantly down all over the world. 

It is clear indication that we must start using non-conventional energy sources after this crisis. It is clear that we must understand that humanity is the only religion and serving needy is next to serving god. 

We should maintain social distancing at least for following year and help needy. If we all stand United and act wisely we will surely be victorious in this situation and once again we can live that golden days enjoying railway rides, shouting for our favourite team in stadiums and the birds chirping in the forest without our intervention, but for now we must stay home stay safe. 

Why Mental Health Of Actors From a Non-Filmy Background is Still a Taboo

The sad demise of Kai Po Che actor Sushant Singh Rajput sent shockwaves to the entire world. God alone knows the real reason behind such a drastic and brave step taken by Sushant to depart from the world into eternal peace.

Now, Rajput being from a non-filmy background created a lot of stir in the film industry. As everyone is well acquainted with the knowledge of Bollywood star kids and nepotism, a synonym connected to a certain privilege, most succumb to success easily deny. 

The actor was often bullied and trolled by the Bollywood’s most successful and popular bandwagon including well-established directors and mainly actress student Of The Year starlet Alia Bhatt for nearly belittling and falling short of all empathy for the actor.

It seemed as if the needles were straight targeted towards Sushant because of his background. 

However, the recent developments suggest that the actor was undergoing a mental health treatment for the past 6-months which the industry was unaware. An hour before he passed away, two recent calls made to his rumoured girlfriend Rhea went unanswered. 

Director Karan Johar and Alia Bhatt were called out for bullying the actor and is being touted as the main cause for his recent developments of feeling indifferent. In one of the eps of Coffee With Karan, Alia made a rude reference to Sushant, saying ”Who Sushant”, answering to one of the rapid-fire rounds. 

While so much has happened. It was Kangana Ranaut who spoke the reality of filmy world plastered by invisible crudeness. May Sushant rest in peace and let us all pray for his soul to be in a better place.
