Okay, so the other day I was surfing through the internet to my leisure and boredom. Suddenly, I stumbled upon a question on Quora about not knowing your purpose in life and is there any way to just know it. I kept browsing through the web for any answers. Well, I was swarmed with answers. There were thousands of books written over the same subject, you must be aware of that fact. I’m pretty sure you would’ve come across the same question at some point in your life.  Nowadays, with the advent of day-to-day new technology which has surely made our routines so busy that we don’t have time to read a whole book to find answers rather quick answers, like on our friendly companion: Google! Amongst my pursuit for the right and short answer, I came across a TEDx Video of around 10 minutes. That was it. I’ll be sharing some light on that. Go grab a seat and get ready to focus on what’s about to come. It will only take 5 minutes. So, there are 5 little question

I turn on the television and what I see is a variety of views, manifestos, party flags, colours, and candidates, hustle and bustle of the different crowds hooting and cheering their leaders in campaigns.

Whatever the results in the end be, one thi

Engro Fertilizers Ltd. Management Colony(my hometown) Have you ever gotten the chance of waking up early someday and sitting outside your house, maybe in your lawn or literally some place that doesn't have a roof to itself. I am talking about the time of 4 a.m. to 6 a.m. or before sunrise. The night-light swayed away and the day comes into place slowly and beautifully. The transition is just everything to want for. It's fascinating how that occurs. The serenity and the quietness and the beauty of the moment itself. When you experience it, you break loose of all the world's troubles and issues for an instant and imagine yourself into a world of your own where you are astounded by every sight you take. From the calm of the night, that has reached its temporal eternal end, to birth of the light of the day, the coolness and the blue sky – a beautiful sight. Laying back on a lawn chair at times or moving around the lawn I happened to have experienced this all today

They feel as if they know a lot as of experience and that we should listen in order to succeed. Well, in reality, not all of the pieces of advice that people receive are good. They are not all true.
