Millennial Thoughts

  I have seen a recent advertisement with a very catchy line "Don't work for the money, Make the money work for you" It is the base for achieving financial independence. You can get promotions and grow your salary but with salary, you can never achieve financial independence. A 4 Cr bank balance can give you a revenue of 24 Lakh per annum which is a common CTC of the IT industry.  Imagine a life where you can live the way you want without worrying about the payment of bills or managing an emergency expense. It begins with control, a balance in an account can't be treated as purchase capacity but as an investment to earn more. While I'm not against consumerism but we need to have our own limits basis for our financial goals Here are a few key points to achieving financial independence 1) Treat trading as a science, not luck 2) Understand where you stand currently 3) Track your spending (add as many categories of spending as possible) 4) Try to put your money in div...

Effective communication goes beyond just speaking English. It involves expressing our ideas in a clear and concise manner, supported by facts and references. While English is a common business language, it's not important to develop high language skills as if giving a sports commentary or writing an editorial. In corporate communication, it's helpful to understand different templates for different types of communication, such as a simple email receipt acknowledgment, notification email, or update email. To improve communication skills, practice is essential. Writing blogs and getting feedback from peers can help gauge the quality of content. Presenting to friends and family, regardless of aesthetics, can help understand timing and comprehension. Don't let fear of humiliation hold you back, as even non-native speakers can face ridicule for pronunciation. It's important to develop a thick skin and not let others bring you down.  Here are some key points to improve communi...

Kerala is a very scenic state with beautiful people all around and you can't get satisfied with just one visit (got the source of your idea Lays :P). The way they preserve their nature and culture and leverage the awesome backwaters is what makes it more special and gives us a lot of memories that will be cherished forever.        Road Trip to Kerala- This was one of the most Awesome journeys I've experienced so far... Within one month of purchasing life's first car and a newly learned driver (L board :P) we decided to go on a road trip by car. Was tensed a bit, but the recently built Bangalore - Mysore expressway made life easy. We were travelling to Wayanad during a good rainy day and passed through Bandipore forest.  As time passed by we were gaining confidence in my Husband's driving and got indulged in beautiful nature.  We were taking breaks wherever we see a good scenic view and had long chats since there was no disturbance of smartphones & TV or...

  The year 2023 was declared by the United Nations as the  International Year of Millets, to bring awareness of the millets to the world.  Once a forgotten food, But  nowadays we see many articles related to millet.  Why are millets forgotten??? Before answering the question we focus on the benefits of millet. Millets contribute to a healthy diet that contains antioxidants, minerals, and proteins and they are gluten-free with a very low glycemic index. They  are resistant to drought and tolerant to crop diseases and pests and they can grow in any adverse climatic condition.  They require significantly less water to grow when compared to rice and wheat thereby benefitting the consumers, farmers, and the environment Coming to the answer why millets are forgotten?? The food shortage in India post-independence led to a green revolution which prioritized the production of wheat and rice to overcome the crisis. Back then only rice and millet production was h...

Imagine a gender equality country where women are respected and no woman is afraid to work nights, drive and earn money to support her family like unprotected men. According to India's Global Inequality Report, 82% of men and 18% of women earn an income. A working woman in every family can double the Indian economy. In addition to praising the beautiful women in mythology, we must inspire our children with stories of strong women in today's world. The way a father treats his mother is a child's first lesson in respect for women. Think about how a man will feel about other women when he loves women without caring about them. Stereotyping is the biggest problem women face right now, it prevents women from entering the kitchen, it leaves them in the dark about the financial situation of the family, it keeps them away from judgments, details and bad jokes about women, it keeps all emotions inside. World. Stress can be like a punching bag for the women in the family, and there a...

  Friendship Day is the best day to let your friends know how much you need and love them. The best way to celebrate this day is to spend quality time with them. In these busy days, relations are often forgotten and with the everyday hustle we make easy friends like colleagues who are easily accessible and tend to forget the long term  relations. These special days give us an opportunity and act as a reminder for us to take our time out and spend with the people who make us happy and be with those where we can be ourselves.  It is a real stress buster and a much-needed mental vacation where we can recollect old memories, pause responsibilities, be our crazier selves, ignite our humor sense and comeout of the day with strengthened relationships, and a mental massage. For celebrations we all like less planning and more action so here are some of my ways which can ease up your planning. For people who miss or cant meet remind you miss them by sending cute surprises like gree...
