BOOK REVIEW:-

Overall the book is just beyond fabulous The characters, the narration and everything seems to be perfect. I personally loved the character of Lily and Atlas. Lily’s strong decision and ability to do justice to herself and her daughter was remarkable. The narration was so strong that you will personally think of yourself in the characters place.

Firstly while reading the book I thought it will be just an average but as soon the book started every single page hooked me to read more and more. Especially I loved the narration it was just awesome. The character of Lily was so very incredible. Atlas has great chemistry with Lily like after so long they had the same feelings for each other.

This is the must read book though sometimes the story didn’t bother me but it was such a great piece of writing that can’t be expressed in words. I hadn’t given the spoiler because it would be far better to read and enjoy it at the same time.

Benefits of Regular Exercise

Exercise is defined as any movement that makes your muscles work and requires your body to burn calories.

There are many types of physical activity, including swimming, running, jogging, walking, and dancing, to name a few.

Here are the fews ways regular exercise benefits your body and brain.

It can make you feel happier

Exercise has been shown to improve your mood and decrease feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress.

It produces changes in the parts of the brain that regulate stress and anxiety. It can also increase brain sensitivity for the hormones serotonin and norepinephrine, which relieve feelings of depression.

Additionally, exercise can increase the production of endorphins, which are known to help produce positive feelings and reduce the perception of pain.

It can help with weight loss

Some studies have shown that inactivity is a major factor in weight gain and obesity.

To understand the effect of exercise on weight reduction, it is important to understand the relationship between exercise and energy expenditure.

Your body spends energy in three ways:

👉digesting food
👉exercising
👉maintaining body functions like your heartbeat and breathing
While dieting, a reduced calorie intake will lower your metabolic rate, which can delay weight loss. On the contrary, regular exercise has been shown to increase your metabolic rate, which can burn more calories to help you lose weight.

It can help skin health

Your skin can be affected by the amount of oxidative stress in your body.

Oxidative stress occurs when the body’s antioxidant defenses cannot completely repair the cell damage caused by compounds known as free radicals. This can damage the structure of the cells and negatively impact your skin.

Even though intense and exhaustive physical activity can contribute to oxidative damage, regular moderate exercise can actually increase your body’s production of natural antioxidants, which help protect cells.

“Good things come to those who sweat.”

TAKE A BREAK

Sometimes, restlessness comes from too much work or too much routine. Our brain needs a bit of rest and novelty. Take a break without worrying too much about problems and you will come back energized and ready to take on the situation

DO HANDS-ON WORK

Often, we tend to get too stuck on our digital devices or too caught up in our heads. Instead, go and do something that involves interacting with real world. Clean a room, Organize your desk, water the plants or do some gardening.

SCHEDULE SOMETHING FUN

A common reason for the lack if motivation us the feeling that our day is going to be dull and unpleasant. You can address it by scheduling something fun for later. Once you’re done with work, you will know that there is something truly enjoyable waiting for you and this can help you focus more on work and not on procrastination and give your day a sense of meaning.

SELF-CARE

Check to make sure you have eaten or grab a snack. Drink enough. Take a nap or lie down, if possible. Move your body. Do something that helps you feel good, even if it’s just writing for few minutes, having a favorite snack or meditating for a while. Check with your body and see what you need at the moment.

SET A DEADLINE

Work and chores tend to occupy as much time as we give them. If you have a whole day to finish a task, it might take you a whole day. If you have two hours, you will finish in those two hours. A good tip to reduce restlessness is set a deadline that will push you to start acting now. It will help you get into action right away.

TIPS TO STICK TO A HABIT

1. USE REINFORCEMENT

As humans, when we get rewarded we tend to repeat the same thing because we want rewards, but when we get failure or pain from something we tend not to perform it  for the second time again.

The thing explained above is a universal truth, but hard habits do not reward us that early, it requires time and patience and also a lot of discipline and that’s why very few of us stick with those habits. So the solution here is using rewards for motivation and encouragement so you will repeat the behaviour.

2. NEVER MISS A WORK TWICE

Its normal to miss one day or taking a rest for one day because after all we human beings need rest and we love to rest than to do certain things continuously ,but we shouldn’t miss the work twice.

When you miss continuously for two three days a new habit or to be specific procrastination develops which is highly destructive and can make all efforts that you have put in worthless, so after having a rest day try to come back again quickly.

3. TRACK YOU HABIT

Tracking habit will give you inner peace and satisfaction. And most importantly you will get the much needed motivation to keep continuing the task.

4. REMEMBER WHY YOU STARTED.

We human being easily get diverted. Many times it becomes very difficult to keep us on track and to the habit.

In such cases we should try to imagine the end result of the work, or we should remember why we started that particular work. Make the subconscious mind aware about it. Whenever you get diverted immediately bring the end result in front of your eyes.

Tips For Acing An Online Interview

Online interviews are now becoming the standard as businesses continue to adapt to grow Due to the extreme extraordinary changes brought about by the COVID-19 epidemic, employers have turned to online interviewing technologies and video conferencing programs like as Zoom, Google Meet, and Skype, among many others, to assess potential employees in a timely and cost-effective fashion.

Appearing for an online interview might be intimidating for several prospective candidates, particularly first-timers. As a result, I’ve compiled a list of some suggestions that will not only enable you put your best foot forward but will also put you on the road to success, even though you might be thousands of miles away.

1. Before you begin, check your devices and wifi service

Remember to test your wifi connection a few hours before your virtual interview to confirm that it is stable. Have such a PC that satisfies all of the technical requirements. Test your webcam, audio, and headset well before the interview as well.A bad internet service results in delayed videos and distorted audio, which could become a deal breaker. As a result, make all required preparations to guarantee that the internet can provide high-quality video.

2. Set the tone and keep interruptions to a minimum

If you struggle with your laptop or alter your posture throughout the interview, the company will have reasons to question your candidacy since you may appear unprepared. To prevent making such an impression, plan ahead of time by selecting a location with adequate illumination. A bare wall in the background will assist you in being the main focus of the dialogue.

Next, aim your camera at or somewhat around eye level for the best possible eye contact. If you don’t have a laptop stand, then set it on top of a stack of books. To prevent seeming washed out, keep the light in front of you. Reduce clutter from the area and clean it up to make it appear more orderly.

3. Dress professionally

Because a virtual interview doesn’t really imply that it is not genuine, be dressed as you might for an in-person interview. Formal wear demonstrates your seriousness about the job and aids in the establishment of a positive connection with your recruiter. Choose professional or business casual clothes, such as button-down shirts and blazers. Furthermore, avoid any bright colours or distracting designs to prevent drawing your interviewer’s focus away from you.

4. Switch off or silence your phone’s notifications

The pre-interview protocol requires (and it should go without saying) that you should switch off your phone alerts before going online. Log out of any social media or messaging platforms that could send notifications to the laptop. Websites with auto-play music or video should be closed. 

Lock your windows to block out any sirens or traffic horns. Switch off the television. Well before the online interview, evaluate your surroundings and eliminate any possible interruptions. But, if they occur, don’t be alarmed; instead, accept them with grace.

5. Keep your body language professional

You could express your enthusiasm and confidence via nonverbal communication, such as body language. Retain good body position and establish good eye contact to appear attentive. 

Begin with the virtual greeting – say hello and face into the webcam to smile and nod confidently and warmly. According to research, interviewers are much more likely to recall what a prospect said if they keep eye contact throughout the interview. Similarly, whenever the individual has completed speaking, you can use a visual indication such as nodding to indicate that you understood them.

6. Also have backup plan in hand

Whenever a technical error occurs during a video conference, everyone can see. Oftentimes, even after doing all that was possible, a connectivity problem might still arise. As a result, have a fallback option ready just in case the video software fails or the wifi goes down. If the internet goes down on you, you may ask to do a classic telephone interview. Furthermore, if you face technical difficulties such as a stuck video or echoing audio, you could also politely request the interviewer to repeat anything you might have missed.

7. Keep in touch

A timely follow-up might allow you to market yourself and discuss topics you may have missed during the interview. It’s a good gesture to send a brief follow-up email to the recruiter, reinforcing your enthusiasm by thanking them for their time.
