Video Games: yay or nay!

Video Games ... Is Good For You?

While it may be disliked by parents, and wives around the world, the video game industry is a permanent part of our world. From its humble beginnings in the 80s, the video game industry has exploded into a ten-billion-dollar subculture.

Stress Relief

Video games are an excellent way to relieve stress. For the average non-gamer, in fact, spending 15 or 20 minutes a day playing an easy to learn, though difficult to conquer.However, the more complex and involved games may actually be more effective than their simpler brethren.

Quicker Decision Making

This tends to go hand-in-hand with the previous example. Logical skills are a good thing, but they lose their luster if used slowly. Quick thinking skills are a good thing but can be disastrous without proper logic. Putting the two together, however, can have an immensely beneficial impact on your life. Most games give you a time limit on reaching a decision.

These three arguments are actually enough to make me believe that everyone should play video games. Everyone knows that stress relief is becoming increasingly important as our world becomes increasingly stressful. Quick decision making and logical reasoning are huge assets in life. So, video games are not bad, It’s our duty to play correct games according to our age.

3 Time Management Tips That Actually Work.

3 Time Management Tips That Actually Work.

Time management can be tough. How can we manage our time to live healthier and happier

? Do the things that we know are important, and still handle the responsibilities that are urgent?

1.      Eliminate half–work at all costs.

In our age of constant distraction, it's easy to split our attention between what we should be doing and what society bombards us with. Usually, we're balancing the needs of messages, emails, and to–do lists at the same time that we are trying to get something accomplished. It's rare that we are fully engaged in the task at hand.

Call this division of your time and energy “half–work.”

Here are some examples of half–work…

·        You start writing a report, but stop randomly to check your phone for no reason or to open up Facebook or Twitter.

·        Your mind wanders to your email inbox while you're on the phone with someone.

2.      Do the most important thing first.

The decisions and choices that you make throughout the day tend to drain your willpower.

·        If you do the most important thing first, then you’ll never have a day when you didn’t get something important done.

·        By following this simple strategy, you will usually end up having a productive day, even if everything doesn't go according to plan.

3.      Reduce the scope, but stick to the schedule.

No matter what the circumstance and no matter how small the work, you know you're going to finish today's task. That's how little goals become lifetime habits.

Finish something today, even if the scope is smaller than you expected.

Problems of Young People

           

                      Problems of Young People /

        “Millions of people can believe in you, and yet none of it matters if you don’t believe in yourself.” – Unknown

One of the biggest problems of “Young People” or mostly known as “Teenagers” is being insecure. Believing in ourselves is as hard as learning a new language. We want to bring out the best thing in us, and show it to the world, but then it all stops because of being insecure. As a scientific research showed that at least 10% - 15% of us go through “Insomnia”, which is no sleep for weeks. It mostly happens because of depression and anxiety, which is a common thing among the highschoolers, happening because of discouraging, bullying and criticization.

Being embarrassed in front of others is a great deal to most of the people, it’s all about dignity and self-respect. When we as students go through being embarrassed, the first thought that comes is to put an end to it, for once and for all, some may fight through it and some might think to never exist. If anything bad happens we turn to self-harm and even go on wrong paths which may put our future in danger. These problems are going on every 2^nd person’s life it isn’t a big deal. Just chill out because EVERYONE of us is SPECIAL.

Moral Values

IMPORTANCE OF VALUES IN LIFE /

Values in our life act as a star in our personality… Values are the brightness of a person’s personality. Values like respect, compassion, honesty, responsibility etc. make us a good person.

     Without moral values, a person is not just incomplete rather is considered completely incomplete.

A person is never judged on his/her looks, he/she is always  liked or disliked based on his/her character and the way he portraits his moral qualities. If the character of a person is not good, none of it matters. Good character in a person is build up by values.

Values work like cement which help build a strong house called character… A person is liked by everyone if he/she has a good behaviour;  the colour complexion, the outer beauty- none of that matters!

So, values are the building blocks which end up building a beautiful and strong tower- a good hearted person…..

twenty feet tall.

Imagine you were twenty feet tall. Describe what life would be like. How would it be different from your life now??? \

If I was twenty feet tall, my life would be boring. If I was twenty feet tall I cannot even study in The Central School because I’ll be too big and I cannot go inside the building. If I was twenty feet tall, the basic things that I need in my healthy life, I’d be missing that. These three things won’t be perfect for me. The three things are clothes, eating and living. These are the three things that a human need to live a proper life. Firstly, the clothing will be designed individually and it will be sold for those who are twenty feet tall. In this condition, I’ll not be able to wear many clothes in a year, and suppose my clothes get torn I’ll look like a “homeless giant”. Eating will be very difficult for me because of my huge size. I need to eat more food and it will cost lots of money too. Also, living is another problem. This requires more money in all three. I must live in a grand house to sleep, eat and go around. And if I was twenty feet tall life also would be great because I can reach everything up high also for an example like if a person or something stuck in the tree or in a tall building I can easily help them get down. Nobody could defeat me in basketball at all. I will be the best at basketball. I can reach the basket and put the ball and score more points. I have both positive and negative thoughts if I was twenty feet tall.
