When Will Lifetime Stop Glorifying Murder & Rape?

When Will Lifetime Stop Glorifying Murder & Rape?

After a long day of work, I was sitting in my room looking for something to watch when I came across a movie on Hulu. At first I was hesitant because it was a Lifetime movie. And I thought to myself, this is probably another movie about murder.

But as it turns out, it wasn’t about murder. This one was about rape. As if that were any better.

See, I used to love Lifetime back in the day before they became a haven for true crime. Now everything is about murder (and apparently rape) and every movie seems to have the same plot with different actors.

They even had a show that glorified nurses and doctors killing people.

While I enjoy a real true-crime documentary as much as the next person, I don’t really enjoy movies or shows dedicated to magnifying murder. Murders that didn’t really happen and are only giving people ideas on how to commit them. Which is essentially what they’re doing.

I mean, don’t you think so?

To me, it would appear as if Lifetime has lost its sense of creativity in producing quality movies. And now they’re trying to make up for it by keeping up with the Joneses.

One could also argue that they’re using people’s pain to profit from movies and television shows. I don’t know about you but I don’t think that murder or rape is funny, and I doubt that people who experienced that would think it is either. It’s very triggering and unnecessary that companies like Lifetime can’t do better than this.

And it’s not to say all the blame is on Lifetime here. It’s also about actors that are choosing to do this kind of work. Instead of trying to make a quick buck, what they should be doing is considering the contribution they’re making to society by choosing their work wisely.
What makes Hulu’s ‘Normal People’ so relatable?

A binge-worthy show that will make you relive your first love

Photo by Stephanie Greene on Unsplash

In the middle of the lockdown, I found myself extremely bored. Browsing through the catalog of TV show I stumbled across Hulu’s ‘Normal People’. Based on Sally Rooney’s Book with the same name, this mini-series embody the adventure that is young love.

Watching the main characters Marianne and Connell falling for each other, struggling with expressing their feeling, fighting the social norms, and discovering themselves will remind you of your first encounter with love.

The twelve 30 minutes episodes follow the complex romance between the Irish girl and boy through secondary school and college. Marianne is considered an outcast in school while Connell is a very popular guy. Striving to remain socially accepted Connell hides their relationship. Marianne goes along with it until this brings her unbearable pain and she brakes it off.

Despite that at first, one of the protagonists seems more in place among his peers, both find it difficult to form meaningful emotional connections with others. Connell is much more sensitive and intelligent than his friends. Тhe way he sees the world is different, and in his words only Marianne shares his views.

In college, their paths cross again, and our characters get on the carousel that is on-again/off-again relationships. In the off periods, Marianne and Connell both date other people. This just makes them realize that no one else understands them as profoundly as they understand each other.

The show has an incredible cast and great dialogs. The shots with behind the head following camera makes you experience the scenes as if you are there.

‘Normal people’ covers the experience of young love in a relatable and realistic way. It also tackles themes as self-discovery, the need of creating meaningful connections, social status and mental illness.

So, press the play button and enjoy!
7 shows to watch over winter break
By: Simi M
Tags: Show, Greys Anatomy, Netflix, Oitnb, TV Shows

Grey’s Anatomy

This show is literally my favorite ever! The drama combined with real issues and medical cases is so perfect. I personally prefer the older seasons but that’s because I’ve rewatched the show so much and I miss the old characters.

Season 17 comes back in March of 2021 so if you start watching now, you’ll be all caught up by then!

2. Private Practice

This show is a spinoff of Grey’s and features Addie. I won’t spoil it but I love seeing Addie in her own show and meeting Violet, Naomi, Cooper, Charlotte, Pete and Sam! It’s a must watch and I love the crossovers with Grey’s so definitely watch after Grey’s.

3. Jane the Virgin

Although it’s been a few years since I watched it, Jane the Virgin is such an amazing show. There’s so many twists and turns, combined with the narrator telling the story. It’s amazing to see Jane and her family grow throughout the show!

4. Gossip Girl

This show about rich kids in New York city is just great. The mystery of who Gossip Girl is and all the crazy plot lines make this show so amazing. It also brings back memories of older times which adds nostalgia to the charm of the show.

5. Pretty Little Liars

This show starts off with a crazy mystery and follows the liars throughout high school. I watched it before it left Netflix so I don’t know where you can find it now. It can get pretty scary at times so don’t watch it right before bed. It’s kind of like Gossip Girl but add some crime.

6. Orange is the New Black

This show is rated TV-MA so make sure you’re okay with dealing with some heavy topics. It follows the story of several inmates and guards at Litchfield throughout their time at the prison. It really opened my eyes about some of the issues in prisons and makes you see inmates as humans.

7. Trinkets

Last but not least is Trinkets! I just watched this show and I really enjoyed it! It’s about teenagers who steal for fun and how the three girls become unlikely friends. It’s good but not my absolute favorite. Check out some of the other shows on this list first.

My opinion on the season finale of “The 100” (season 7)
Tags: The 100 Season 7, Entertainment, Science Fiction, Foryou, TV Shows

My opinion on the season finale of “The 100” (season 7)

Many people enjoyed season seven and so did I, however I do believe it was rushed. After getting to know the characters the things that were done throughout season 7 was not as likely to happen. Take for example Bellamy’s death. Clarke Griffin was know to be a vicious and courage’s woman. The whole season was her saving her people and regretting it. She did this so that others didn’t have to. Bellamy was always her hero in some way. He was always pulling her up and their friendship was something that every person wishes they had. This young lady (well that would be an understatement considering she would be in her 100‘s) would have never killed her own best friend. All the memories and bonds were torn apart by her reckless decision. All aside she did it to save Madi, but I do believe she would have found another solution. The ending was pretty good itself. The idea of the people she cared about choosing to stay with Clarke until death do them part is the definition of loyalty. Their character growth was something that I witnessed. I would like to point out I’m a little biased since Bellamy is my all time favorite character!!! Even though he is I still do believe Griffin would never have done what she did, even when it meant saving Madi SHE WOULD HAVE FOUND ANOTHER WAY! At the end of the day I applaud each and every one of their performances because they nailed it. No one could have done it better. Bellamy deserves justice. Although the ending did give me butterflies I would have wanted Bellamy Blake to be with them. After all he went through he at least deserved that.

12 Days Of Christmas Specials

A Charlie Brown Christmas is an undisputed Christmas classic in the U.S. I have watched this pretty much every Christmas season for as long as I can remember, so this is an entry close to my heart. It is a Christmas special that feels timeless even though it first aired 55 years ago. The animation is beautiful. The jazzy Christmas music is everything. I listen to “Christmas Time Is Here” every year.

This is a Christmas special that is about love and caring for each other, not just at Christmas but all year round. It also created a dialogue about mental health and the holiday season. Lots of people struggle this time of year. People struggle with seasonal depression, grief over another holiday without someone they’ve lost, etc. I feel like people are generally expected to be happy this time of year and if they’re not, then they try to fake it. I like that A Charlie Brown Christmas sends the message that it is okay not to be okay during the holiday season. Linus accepts Charlie Brown as he is, treats him with nothing but kindness, and looks out for him.

In my opinion, Linus is without a doubt, the best character in this special. He was the only person who was consistently kind to Charlie Brown throughout the special, he goes with Charlie Brown to pick out a tree for the Christmas play and doesn’t make fun of the one he chooses, he accepts Charlie Brown as he is, and he reminds everyone what the true meaning of Christmas is in one of the best parts of the special. Also, he doesn’t care about the blanket haters. Linus is a good egg and I love him.

While I wrote this, part of me started to wonder if this special’s themes about mental health and Lucy’s psychiatric advice booth subconsciously sowed the seeds of my eventual love of psychology. I’d like to think that this special, in some way, contributed to my current pursuit of a psychology degree and my desire to help children within this field. At the end of the day, I’m just glad this special has been a part of my life.

To me, A Charlie Brown Christmas will always be an integral part of my Christmas watchlist and the holiday season, in general. Whether you decide to watch A Charlie Brown Christmas for the first time or you watch it again for the 25th time, I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what your favorite Christmas movies and TV show episodes are in the comments!

I’ve decided that I am not going to tell you any more about the medical mystery of the episode than I alreadyhave so you can enjoy the developments as they happen, if you choose to watch the episode. However, I do want to talk briefly about the dialogue this episode starts about lies. They talk about different types of lies and why we tell them. We use white lies to make other people better and we use rationalizations to make ourselves feel better. The episode raises the question of when, if ever, is it okay to lie? The patient of the episode’s daughter, Jane, believes whole-heartedly in always telling the truth even when it hurts. She knows how to lie, but refuses to, especially when asked to lie to her own mother. House is obviously in the opposite camp believing, “Lies are like children: they’re hard work, but they’re worth it because the future depends on them.” He witnesses pure truth in this episode, something he did not thought existed, and he starts to analyze his worldview. I thought this was an interesting focus for a holiday episode.

Source: Pinterest | Hugh Laurie (Greg House)

I couldn’t do a post about House without a Hugh Laurie appreciation section. The man is brilliant in everything he does, comedy, drama, film, TV, music, writing, directing, the list just goes on and on. He was perfectly cast as Dr. Gregory House. I don’t think any other actor could get away with half the lines he says on this show. With Hugh, the lines just work. “It’s a Wonderful Lie” has one of the rare occasions where you get to hear Hugh sing a little on the show. That part of the episode always makes me smile. Hugh is a gem of a human who deserves all the praise I just showered on him and more.

The last thing I need to discuss is Wilson’s Reindeer/Moose hat. It’s so goofy yet perfect for this character. I just love everything about it. I also love Robert Sean Leonard who plays Wilson. He is just as awkward as Wilson is. Anyways here is the Reindeer/Moose hat in all its glory:

I hope you will consider adding this episode of House to your holiday watchlist this year. Let me know what your favorite Christmas movies and TV show episodes are in the comments! All 8 seasons of House are available to stream on Prime Video. House was also recently added to Peacock, but I do not know if it is accessible to all subscribers or only those with a full subscription to the service.
10 reasons to watch Over The Garden Wall before autumn is over
By: Miss Media
Tags: TV Series, Over The Garden Wall, Tv Reviews, Review, TV Shows

First of all, I know what you’re going to say: “It’s December, autumn’s already over.” And to that I say, you are absolutely right. Pretty much everyone, including yours truly, considers it to be winter once December hits, but technically at the time of writing (December 18th) the official “beginning of winter” — the solstice — is still three whole days away, plenty of time to watch Over the Garden Wall in it’s entirety. Here are ten reasons why you should do just that:

It takes less than 2 hours to watch, so even if you don’t like it (which you will), you’ve only lost as much time as if you’d watched a bad movie. Those sweet autumn vibes. Since a certain pandemic stopped us from experiencing autumn to it’s fullest this year, you can fill your yearly quota by watching this show instead. Elijah. Wood. And if that doesn’t convince you, how about John Cleese and Tim Curry? The voice cast for this show is incredible, they even got an actual opera singer (Samuel Ramey) to voice The Beast so his echoing song feels like it touches your very soul. Speaking of songs, it’s got a killer soundtrack. Yes, I have downloaded the entire soundtrack on Spotify and listen to it on a regular basis, why do you ask? Those gorgeous painted backgrounds. Anyone who appreciates art can appreciate the beautiful ambient lighting and meticulous detail in every scene. A charming touch of whimsy. The tone of the show treads a careful line between light-hearted and downright ominous, which just adds to its unique charm. Heartwarming family bonds. Wirt, Greg and Beatrice, the show’s protagonists, all have really satisfying character arcs revolving around family and it’s very adorable. Quirky supporting characters. From singing frogs to lovesick school teachers, you really don’t get characters like this anywhere else. It’s surprisingly funny. Maybe not in a laugh-out-loud kind of way, but Wirt’s teen angst and Greg’s childish mischievousness make for an excellent time. If you don’t watch it,T̷͓̤̟̣̯̖̩͉͂̐H̷̡̢̢̰̮͖̱̭͈̟̀̃Ḙ̸̠̈͆̓̇̑̀ ̵̡͇̫̝͕͇̫̘͖̜̪̌͆̃͛͆͊Ḅ̵̢̮̠̣̅Ë̸̗̱̼̭͓̜͔̎͊͗͆͋̉̈̓̑͗̅̚͜͝A̸̬͕̞̿̅̅̽͐̈́̔̕ͅS̷̨̰̙̠̓̇̔̽̽̒̿̓̀̕͠ͅT̵̙̹̲̰̓ ̶̛͔̖̬̤̺͖̗̊̈́̊͆W̸̦͖̻͚̾Ỉ̸̧̘̝̗͎̺̼̟̻̗͔̇̒͌͂͋́͜͝L̴̨̛̍̿̾͐̎͘͘͠Ḷ̸̓͗̌ ̸͙̝̜͆̅̈́̅̍̑̕̕G̵̨̧̢̬̳̳̦̝̱̳̬͛̓̽̿̉͆ͅË̶̛̠͉͚̦̤̘̼̩́̎͊͆́̅̎̒͆͘ͅT̸̡̥̥̮̤͈̙͙͙̫͙̊̔ͅ ̵̞͔̦̇͒̓̄̕͝Ý̵̰̭͔̟̱̟Ǫ̶̭̟̅͆̅̅̅̌̕U̴̡̢̧̡̫̳̣̗͎̬̬̲̘͈̪̓͑͋̀̾̇̊̈́͝

#GettingCloserToMegaProject

The problem that I think is major nowadays is due to lack of exposure and knowledge many students end up with careers they are not passionate about. Many students don’t know in which field they are interested after completing their FS.c and they choose the wrong fields. Some of them adjust themselves but not all the students go with the flow, they want to do something else in practical life and they study something else.

It is important to start planning way before. As it happens that students are not even done with their 12th finals and they have to start applying for the universities. At that moment they don’t even have the time to think about what field to choose.

I interviewed a few of my friends, and according to them, they didn’t have the time to think of what career they want to pursue. What they wanted for their future. According to them they randomly applied for different fields in different universities and then selected their careers on the basis of the fields they got selected for. And so do me.

This interview and the personal experience gave rise to only one thought that how lightly we take our future. It’s not only our future, it’s the future of our parents linked with us, the future of our generation.

It is no unusual being asked on the very first day of university “Are you here by chance or by choice”. As I have been through this day as well and I wish along with the other students I would have answered it honestly that day but never mind. It is of no use to cry over spilt milk. Now what I want is that not every but the highest rate of students answer this question honestly and with the answer ‘by choice’. This will greatly affect the enthusiasm of students as they are willing for what’s offered to them as it is their own choice made by themselves. Not only this but the perfect knowledge of their selected course will keep them aware of increasing step by step difficulties in the course, as with the idea of it they will be prepared and they can combat them with their own strategies.

Getting Closer to your Mega Project Problem

I feel myself fortunate to have attained Amal Fellowship. The fellowship truly transforms you into a being you haven’t imagined of before. Back in this summer when I first knew about the fellowship advertisement on Scholarship Network facebook page, I didn’t pay heed to it, thinking it as an ordinary 3-months internship.

Amal Academy

However, the slogan behind it that it’s Stanford university sponsored compelled me to do research and know enough about it. After a week of research, through its webpage, YouTube channel, success and transformation stories of its graduates, I started to realize that Amal fellowship is something exemplary, unique, and truly a transformational journey, a gift from PepsiCo and Stanford university to us Pakistanis. I couldn’t retain myself but straightaway moved on and applied for it. And now I’m writing this blog as part of its project work while the fellowship is running its full swing!

Self-improvement: One of Amal’s main goals

After getting enrolled in the fellowship, I realized its immense importance for each and very student/profession of our country. Each year over 4000+ people apply for the fellowship. This implies that our youth is looking forward to transforming their lives and become a valuable part of the society. But since Amal has to filter them out, resultantly only 70–80 fortunates happen to avail this fellowship (annually only 2 persons out of 100 people applied to the fellowship get the fellowship opportunity).

Personal growth is key to success in every work-domain

Due to a limited number of Amal fellowships per year, I aim to write a 25 pages e-book on self-improvement in order to reach out to a larger set of students and professionals in our country. Unlike the conventional way of expressing and enforcing constructive thoughts, I plan to include illustrations and based on that enforcement of constructive ideas can be ensured. For example, a curated page like #AmalTotkay. Moreover, I aim to include only key lessons that I have learnt through Amal fellowship and lectures. The TEDx talks included in the fellowship curriculum will be of immense help in this regard. Only crucks from the talks will be sorted out and included in the book in the form of illustrations.

The Problem I Care About

I have always disliked some wedding rituals which cost only the bride side. This is a kind of dowry which is very common in many parts of the world especially South Asia.

It is found that 95 % of weddings in all province of Pakistan include the transfer of dowry from the bride’s family to the groom. In Pakistan there are 2000 dowry related deaths per year, and annual rates increasing 2.45 per 100, 00 woman from dowry related violence. (Figures from dailytimes.com.pk).

Okay this is the extreme side I just want to address the sensible and growth mindset people that we have to understand this that traditions and customs are because of we lived in sub –continent these are not our culture our values. It is very difficult to end the practice of dowry but only, if small steps are taken for this, our society can move towards improvement or positivity.

‘’The journey of a thousand miles begin with one step’’. Lao Tzu

‘’It is little keys that open up big doors’’ On small steps leading to great achievements’’. Lamine Pearlheart

We need to keep in mind that wedding expenses should be evenly distributed on both sides so that there is no extra burden on bride side. We can make our lives easier by giving up ancient rituals. It is important to point out the rituals mentioned, the first one is to give meals(Deggs),pots to the groom side after dinner and it does not end there , the next day is to take breakfast to the groom house for all their guest. Is this justice between the two families?

How can I forget the Maklawa dinner held by the bride parents for a numbers of people from the groom side? There are lot of other traditions like that but why not we make a trend to exchange gifts and clothes from the both sides not only from the bride side. This is not only responsibility of bride’s father to settle down the groom and bride this responsibility should take by both families.

On the last note as a girl they cannot change the traditions because practically this is too much difficult for them but they can change the rituals at their brother weddings ,the women can change it at their son’s wedding and boys can change the trend at their own wedding.

Thank you very much for reading my blog.

I always wanted to work for helpless and needy people, but thought that how can I help them? As I have no so much sources to help them. But after watching the videos of Abdul Sattar Edhi in Amal online course, I came to realize that there is only two things needed to help others. First having courage to give something then actually doing so. Same approach I introduced to get closer to my mega project.

I thought about kids of slums who don’t even get their primary education. So I decided to contribute to my society by educating them. For its actual implementation I with few of my friends visited a slum area where first we talked with the parents of children then after their approval we engaged them by distributing chocolates in them.

After that, my mind told me think about the idea of “fixing stuff around yourself”. Therefore, I decided to create a better surrounding for them where they can at least sit and study. So after cleaning some area, we planted some saplings of plants.

“God is in the slums, in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house. God is in the silence of a mother who has infected her child with a virus that will end both their lives. God is in the cries heard under the rubble of war. God is in the debris of wasted opportunity and lives, and God is with us if we are with them.” Bono Twan

My values are changing due to Amal. In the end, I give the credit of all these efforts to Amal Academy who introduced me with such realization.
Reflection on Amal Totky

Tags: Amal Fellowship, Amal Totkay, Amal Academy, Activity, The Five Best

Amal totky name is something similar to the Zubaida Appa totky but it definitely has some story 😂. But all these totky has worth to be shared with all.

1- Self-talk:

Self-talk is a natural thing and everyone did it when he was alone. It is a good thing and helps the person to solve the problem and make a decision. Sometimes people in self-talk start to disgrace themselves as they start thinking about the negative results rather than the positive results. As a result, they start losing confidence in themselves and close their thinking ability in a room and feel disturbed when gathered by people. Self-talk is good for health when you use positive talk with you but if you self-talk about bad things which have happened in your life then it impacts very harshly on your life. So, you must self-talk with you but if the things are not going as you plan then never feel disappointed rather you self-talk again and find the reason for the failure and work on that.

2- Get out of your comfort zone:

We all make mistakes and making the comfort zone is the biggest mistake of anyone’s life. We make an imaginary world around us and don’t want it to go outside of it but the things which we want to achieve are always outside that comfort zone. So, if you want to achieve something great then you must come out of the comfort zone.

3- Create new habits:

Habits are the pillar of anyone’s personality. In an overall personality, there must be some reflection of habit. So, good habits are always good for personality. But if you change your habits with the better one then it is the finest step of your life. For your personal growth creating new habits is the essential thing and anyone who wants to improve their personality then he must start with improving or creating new habits.

4- Ask People Help:

We all face this problem in our life when asking for help. It is hard for asking anyone for help because of ego issues but it is not just as bad as we think. Asking for help is good for relationship building. It helps you to connect with new people and it is the first step for making new friends, if you feel shy about asking for help then think just one thing. If you want to help someone then you must start with you by asking for help.

5- Fake it till you Make it:

It is the technique for starting new habits and new activities in our life. It helps in building confidence and communication skills. As if you are lack in confidence then you just behave as you are very confident and did not hesitate to start the conversion and take part in the conversation and perform different activities and do this again and again, in the start you feel shivering and find it very difficult but at the end, you get you to use to with it. That’s why this technique is called Fake it till you Make it.

This blog is all about sharing some experience about the implications of Amal Totkay for personal and professional growth

The 1st thing that I realize is that knowing my own ability that what exactly could do In the best possible way. Where ever I saw an opportunity I’ll be ready to knock on the door and seize that opportunity.

I’ll be looking to note down my plus and negative points that include my own strengths and weaknesses. I’ll apply the Amal Totka of being punctual and not being afraid of losing. I would be ready for taking my task with risk.

whenever a crucial time comes and I can’t cope up alone I will use “Ek or EK Gyara” Totka for the best possible solution to any problem.

Each and every point makes you feel comfortable

The best thing that I have learned is about team work. I don't like talking to many, but always convinced about what I said and what I believe while ignoring all others but the thing that AMAL Totky has taught me is Team work and being the key player of your team is better than being alone

Now I believe in teamwork and could try anything else with my team to overcome any situation if I can’t handle it at all on my own

Team means a lot

Hope fully these all amal tokay will be helping me out in upcoming life
Fixing Stuff Around Yourself

Verily Allah loveth those who turn to Him, and loveth those who seek to be clean (The Qur’ran 2;222)

Above written verse explains how cleanliness plays a major role in someone’s life. Cleanliness is not just related to just yourself it’s also related to how you make your surroundings clean and fix everything which makes no sense. Amal gave us a task to fix things around yourself which is a basic trait of self leadership. So here is an example how I fix the things around myself.

Mess created by my younger brother

Coincidentally I went to drawing room just saw this mess created by my little brother. Being a sportsman he changes his clothes almost twice a day so he just threw them here and there. So I just assembled and placed them somewhere else where all the dirty clothes were gathered and packed his bag and put the other things where they belong.

After clearing the mess

After clearing the mess I can say that at least someone can sit on these sofas. From this activity I concluded:

how can someone become self leader i.e, I just decided and made it

2. you should clear mess or the annoying things whether it’s yours or not

3. it will give comfort to someone else
Tips for Growth Mindset – – A Special Toolkit to Use
By: Noor Un Nisa
Tags: Amal Fellowship, Amal Academy, Amal Tips For Growth

So, in Amal Fellowship, we are told five tips to develop a Growth Mindset or how to shift from Fixed mindset to Growth mindset. Those tips are:

Self talk Get out if your comfort zone Create new habbits Ask people for help Fake it until you make it

I really liked the tips shared with me by Amal.

In the first tip, it is told that self talk is very important. Self talk reflects whatever we think all the time. Just say your self that Oh Noor! You can do it or You will do it. When we think that we can do it then we feel ourselves motivated toward the challenge but when we ourselves realise that we can not do it then we become lazy and can nit achieve anything.

Second tip is also very important. We can not achive big things by living in comfort zone. If we want to get success, then we have to get out if it and accept challeges.

Also make new habbits while developing a growth mindset like make a list of your learning at the end of the day that what new thing or new challenges you have faced today and what you learnt from them.

It is also important to ask others from feedback. Feedback plays an important role in changing ourselves towards positivity. It also helps us to improve ourselves.

And the last one is fake it until you make it. If you are in in the situation in which you want to, then try to pretend that you are in that situation. Faking for good also makes you good!

So these were the five tips. Last tip is my most favourite tip. FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT

In an article written by Dr Ashfaq Ahmad, he says that he was used to read everything no matter if it is a newspaper or a sign board. He said in that article, ‘’I liked to read so much. Once I bought some fried black chickpeas. Shopkeeper put the chick peas in the wraping of a magzine. I ate the chickpeas and read the newspaper on which Itnwas written that when you are sad, dont try to do sad thing. Just pretend to be happy and ultimately you would be genuinely happy. Dr sb says that I liked that point and I started to implement it in my life and now I am totally agree with this. This little thing has changed my life so much!’’

So, the above story also supports the fifth tip that is FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT!

As I am trying to develop growth mindset so I have started to act upon these tips. I am implementing the tip that is get out of your comfort zone! I try to accept challenges and start working on it!

So if you are trying to shift your mindset from fixed to growth, then use these five tips and you will get amazed results!
Fixing Stuff Around Yourself

There is a well-known saying, “Charity begins at home”. Similarly, when you have desire to fix dilemmas of others, I think we should start with fixing stuff around ourselves. So, I gave a quick glance around myself and tried to analyze which thing is swaying me to confusion and evoking irritation in my mind. It didn’t take my much time to find out that my study table looking very jumbled and causing irritation in my mind.

Earlier look of my study table.

Now, I had clear goal to organize my books in good manner. So, first I divided all the books according their specific genres, then I stacked them on the basis of fiction, non-fiction, history, and self help books. This symmetry and orientation of books on my table was quite satisfactory, and gave me really good feeling. Therefore, I moved forward and added further items on my table. I made the addition of water bottle and emergency light on my study table to deal with in case situations.

Latest look of my study table.

In this symmetry I can grab any book of my need and choice in just few seconds without putting to much stress on my mind and this fixation of stuff is going to help me a lot in my life as it will save my time and good vibes about myself and surrounding.

Self Talk.

Get out of Your Comfort Zone

Create new habits

Ask People help

Fake it till you make it

Self Talk

The words we feed ourselves are very important.Before starting a task if we keep on telling ourselves that I am not capable of doing this or I can’t do this you will see your energy for doing the task will be sucked already. Self talk can both make you or break you. Similarly, If you tell yourself that you can do it. Believe me you can and you will.

Getting Closer to my Mega Project Problem
By: Nayle Shah
Tags: Amal Fellowship, Amal Academy

The problem I care most about is the quality of water in slum areas of Peshawar and misuse of water specifically in Hayatabad, Peshawar. Water mismanagement is an issue, which is on the rise and is getting severe every day. The vision is to bring a change on a larger scale, to address the issue of water mismanagement and to supply the clean water on minimal price especially to slum areas of KPK.

For this, I contacted my neighbours and some professors from my university to take some help from them to resolve the issue as it is one of the big issues because life cannot exist without water.

According to the World Resources Institute, Pakistan is among the extremely high-stress countries in the world which shows more than 80% of withdrawal of water than supply.

World Map of Water Stress by Country

Crisis of water quality in Pakistan

• Pakistan ranks 3rd among countries facing a shortage of water.

• 40% of reported diseases in Pakistan are attributed to poor quality of water.

• 250,000 children in Pakistan die every year due to diarrheal diseases.

• Pakistan ranks 80th out of 122 nations in maintaining water quality standards

• According to the U.N., a child dies from a water-related disease every 15 seconds.

• Water shortage cause 3.5 million people died every year due to water-related health problems. 84% of them are children.

• In many rural areas, women in developing countries walk an average of 3.7 miles (5.9km) a day to get water.

I will try my best to do as much as I can to help the needy of clean water and make the people aware of the misuse of water. In the next blog, I will share some solutions for the problem and I will end this with a quote and it says that “When the well is dry, we’ll know the worth of water.”
