Introduction

IGNOU has signed an MoU with the Unique Identification Authority of India to enrol all students, alumni and staff to Aadhaar. The Aadhaar enrolment for all students will commence soon at all regional centers.

What is Aadhaar?

Aadhaar is a 12 digit individual identification number issued by the UIDAI on behalf of the Government of India. This number will serve as a proof of identity and address, anywhere in India.

Any individual, irrespective of age and gender, who is a resident in India and satisfies the verification process laid down by the UIDAI, can enrol for Aadhaar. Each individual needs to enrol only once for Aadhaar, which is free of cost.

Each Aadhaar will be unique to an individual and will remain valid for life. Aadhaar will help you provide access to services like banking, mobile phone connections and other Government and Non-Government services in due course.

Aadhaar will be:

                               Easily verifiable in an online, cost-effective way

                               Unique and robust enough to eliminate the large number of duplicate and fake identities in government and private databases

                               A random number generated, devoid of any classification based on caste, creed, religion and geography

Why should you enrol?

Aadhaar will over time become a recognised and valid proof of ID and address accepted across the country and across a number of service providers. Aadhaar will consequently form the basic, universal identity infrastructure over which government and non- government service providers across the country can build their identity-based applications. Once residents enrol for Aadhaar, service providers will no longer face the problem of performing repeated Know Your Customer (KYC) checks before providing services. They would no longer have to deny services to residents without identification documents. Residents would also be spared the trouble of repeatedly proving identity through documents each time they wish to access services such as obtaining a bank account, passport, or driving license etc.

Two Personalities

I focussed and evaluating the various experiences I came across in life, I reached the conclusion: There are two types of personalities: Inner and outer. Outer personality goes on changing with the passage of time and can be changed over night or in hours by using cosmetics, clothig, incense etc. But inner personality is tested in trying times. Tough Times Never Last But Tough People Do. That book and other books like Old Man and the Sea by Earnest Hemingway and Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Lewis if read in young age really help during tough times. They inspire and enlighten you how to handle tough time and wade through it tactfully and skillfully. They teach the reader skills develop the trait of perseverance in life.

The skills learnt from these books really made me handle the tough period of my life. You may also read clicking http://sure-tech2.blogspot.com

TIPS TO CRACK CAT 2011

Self-help
10 TIPS TO CRACK CAT 2011
By Prof P.K.Keshap

20 days Testing Window for CAT 2011 is going to be opened from October 22, 2011 to November 18, 2011 for admission to various IIMs. Last date for applying is September 28, 2011. Forms are available with Axis Bank. Many students panic a lot and do not work hard. They are more worried about result than working hard for the competition. Here are 10 tips (Tip# 6 very important) that can improve your performance in the competition and ensure your success:

1. Take a photograph of yours of A-3 size and below the photograph write your name and “ I am the best.” “ God will not help me if I don’t help myself.” Now you paste this photograph in your reading room or at the place where you study. Look at this photograph many times. It will energize you.
2. Devote these 2 months i.e. 24hrs x 55 days= 1320 hrs totally for your preparation. .
3. Thinking and energy matters a lot. Program your mind for success thinking about BIG Picture. Avoid discouragers – mentally and socially. Don’t confront them.
4. Health is very important for taking the competition. Do jogging, cycling. Go for a walk. Better all alone. Chat with yourself and positive thinking encouraging people. Do not discourage yourself. Think like a BLACK BELT HOLDER. Discouragers and fault finders achieve nothing in life but criticize everyone and everything. Positive energy is depleted by listening to them. Take light food. Wear loose clothes. Drink plenty of water, honey and lemon. Balance your diet. Eat fruit, nuts and light food.
5. Sit calm and quite. Close your eyes. Oxygenate yourself by fast breathing and deep breathing. CAT is a test of mental speed. This exercise energizes mind and increases action. Learn to chew and digest the biting words of others. They have their own priorities not CAT. In life we have two options: Either accept or change. Learn to accept criticism. It will generate energy for accomplishing your dreams. Cycling or walking against the wind is very difficult. Be copycat but add some more from your side.
6. Read thoroughly these 3 books:
6.1 one good book on GMAT
6.2 Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis for Verbal Ability
6.3 One year book from good publication house for GK.
Thoroughly means starting from 1st page and reading till the last page. No skipping. This alone will improve your performance by 50% to 100% in the test.
7. Don’t compare yourself with others. Don’t tell others about your efforts. When the results will come, all will know. Help yourself. Believe in the POWER OF NOW and don’t procrastinate. Be the master of your time and destiny. You daily routine is the key to your success.
8. You may also get more guidance from http://sure-tech2.blogspot.com
9. 20 minutes reading, 20 minutes writing or self-reflection what you have read and 20 minutes writing. Plan your studies in writing and follow daily routine. Match your hourly and daily achievement against the planned achievement.
10. Seek online help from internet. Solve as many online question papers as you can.
Check if you are improving. If not, be more intelligent.

ON THE DAY OF TEST, TOUCH FEET OF YOUR PARENTS, ELDERS AND REMEMBER YOUR AT LEAST 3 ANCESTORS WHO ARE IN HEAVEN Their blessings are most important for your success. Take print out/photocopy of this write-up and paste on a wall so that you may read daily.
Writer is an Associate Professor to MBA and Google Rank#1 as on date. Contact E.mail: mympi98@gmail.com.
Bear in mind, practice makes a man perfect. There is no other magic wand for success. Practice, practice and practice.

1. Oil of til (tinsel) for application on body.

3. Drop almond oil in my nostril.
I did all this and used your Mind Machine and scored 90.93%ile in MAT,

Another student told:

CONGRATULATIONS

MY DEAR AMERICAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS- YOUNG AND OLD- SONS AND DAUGHTERS AS I AM 53 BY AGE, KINDLY ACCEPT MY CONGRATULATIONS ON INDEPENDENCE DAY - MONDAY 4, 2011. LONG LIVE AMERICA.

Work and Life Balance

Subodh was married to a beautiful dame from the countryside. His dame needed more time than he could devote. His performance and productivity as well as quality of decisions at work was going down and down. His partner was whining all the time for Subodh’s declining level of concentration at work. Neither wife nor partner was happy or satisfied. Subodh was at wits’ end.


All this was telling upon his health. Wife always found that Subodh remained busy in his work and not attention was paid to maintain relatives. Relatives too complained and remarked bitingly “All marry but they don’t ignore the relatives.” Wife wished that all family functions and marriages in the relations must be attended. She also wished that Subodh should sit and talk with her for hours. Subodh should have time to go to Cinema. All these were not being handled by Subodh comfortably. His health deteriorated and his behaviour became irritable.

For wife, it was another problem. Every body in the family was worried. Parents thought some super natural problem was there. They secretly started consulting “Babas” for finding a remedy to Subhodh’s problem. They were of the opinion some “bad soul” has affected their son. But wife was educated and did not believe much in this kind of “faith” or “faith healing”. Out of respect for elders, she used to company her parents-in-law. Many efforts by these “Babas” failed to bring Subodh to his normal behaviour.

As the time passed, the problem persisted and mental peace of the family members also flew. All – Subodh’s parents’-in-law, parents, brother and sister-in-law all were worried. Worry could be judged by just looking at their faces and their reactions to the situations in daily life.

Time passed and Subodh was blessed with a son. Another bond. Subodh was overburden.
He was unable to meet the continuous nagging by his wife for lack of time for her and her son. Subodh was finding himself torn in performing 3 dutites – one at work, 2nd handling wife and third keeping pace with time demands by elderly parents.

One day, he came across a business mentor. After attending the seminar, when he was having a cup of tea with the mentor, he reluctantly opened his heart to the mentor. Her eyes full of tears were telling more than words. Mentor, seasoned and matured person, advised: keep 11 months for work and full one month for home.

Subodh came home and asked his wife to come and sit with him. After settling down properly and making the wife ready to listen, he disclosed in a very polite way. “Today I met a very intelligent, mature and saint like person who had come to give a talk in the seminar.” Wife was listening with an awe. “I told him my problem of time. I told him that I wish to devote time to my family, but my work engagements do not allow me to do so. If I devote time to family, then work suffers and if I devote my time to work, then family suffers. What should I do sir?” Further Subodh confessed, “Very politely that gentleman told me. Your problem is a problem of life and work balancing. This problem is not only with you but with most of the people. You are over stressed between two lives. When you are in the office, you think about the family and when you are at home, you think about your work. Isn’t it?” “Yes, yes, sir” I answered to the mentor. “Sir how can I over come this situation?”

“Very simple.” 1. Be proactive. Using “Things To Do sheet” and planning for the next day at last night i.e. before the working day, you will become proactive.”
2. Work for 11 months and enjoy full 1 month.

“So, my dear, lovely wife, let’s decide from today that for 11 months you will not ask me anything and I will work only. And on 12th month, I will not ask and not go to work and will enjoy fully with you and son and family. No questions. Agree.”

After sometime, the wife nodded affirmatively i.e. yes. Now everyday nagging by wife was replaced with a smile in the hope that my husband will be free in 12th month of the year.

Every family function was attended with great fervour. No regrets, no complain. Always enthusiast wife, ready son and happy parents went and enjoyed the functions in the family circle.

11 months went by. 12th month came. Without anybody’s asking, a week prior to starting of 12 month, Subodh planned for family’s outing on a hill station. For a week, they stayed at the hill station, did hiking, tracking, enjoyed boating and river rafting. After a week when they came back, he had another plan. He and his wife joined a one week dancing classes. They learnt dancing together. Another plan, music and singing plus painting classes. All this made wife so happy that she does not speak a single word and waits patiently for this 12 months.
During the past 4 years, they have visited many hill stations and have known new people and new culture.

His wife one day came and told that she is planning to start Free classes for slum dwellers in teaching dancing and painting. Life is now has a purpose and meaning for the grumbling couple. Their son likes to live with grandparents. Grand parents for him are God. They love, laugh and always take care of him. Grandfather is always seen walking with the grandson. Grandson holding his grandfather’s finger feels as if he is fully safe and secure and nothing can happen to him.

Everyday, while praying to God for grace, Subhod thanks his mentor who with his guidance changed his dull life into really meaningful one.

PLANNED CHILD

A child is an angel. Majority believes and says like this but why are “terrorists” in this world of angels? My mind many times goes on pondering on this question. World not only has international terrorists, the people who terrorize and escape the eye of law are in plenty. Terrorizing or using force in day to day life is an inescapable trait of humans at large.

WHY THIS HAPPENS? Many times I think and have inferred:

CONCEPTION can be categorized in 3 stages.
1. Pre-conception:

It is the period after marriage when the couple wishes to conceive a child. Continuous listening to holy hymns and reading holy books by the would-be parents will affect the thinking of the child, I believe.

Mental state of the would-be parents is of great importance in pre-conception phase of planned child. Father’s role in this is of 10-20minutes, mother’s role is for full 9 months. So, following behaviour by the mother does contribute a great deal in forming and constructing the behaviour pattern of the coming child.


• Watching programs that are not violent in nature keeps the child away from violent behaviour. My experience.

• Remaining away from quarrelling over trifles like financial and social matters does improve the behaviour pattern of the child. – I trust.

• Looking by would-be mother at the picture of mythical character is when they were children e.g. Lord Krishna’s picture, Lord Rama’s Picture, Sri Hanuman’s picture, Lord Jesus Christ’s picture when he was born do contribute in forming good.

• Mental peace and listening to music that gives peace to the mind is really very useful. It makes the child more intelligent and quick learner.


2. During Pregnancy:

• Regular consultation with the expert or a doctor benefits a lot.
• Saving the would –be mother from verbal attacks, social stigmas and negative situations and news enable the child in womb grow mentally and physically strong and wise.
• The members of the family should heed the dictum: ANALYSIS IS PARALYSIS.
• Over analyzing the situations, events and creating panic does affect the mother and the child.
• It should be kept in mind that what mother eats, feels and listens affects the child in the womb.
• Elders in the family should take proper precautions to avoid any unpleasant situations in front of the would-be mother.
• Special care should be taken by the elders to make the mother-to-be happy and smile and not create such incidents and circumstances as may affect her mind adversely.
• Violent behaviour and violent situations should be escaped by the would-be mother.* Would be mother should read holy books, listen to holy hymns visualize holy figures from history.

3. Post Delivery Precaution:
Coming of the child in a family irrespective of gender should be celebrated. Elders: change your attitude towards females. They are in no way less than your males.
Child is a child and must be welcomed in this world. Don’t start hating and don’t hate the females.

Elders love kissing and over caring the newly born kids. The child is not that immune from the infections. Control and save your newly born kid.
Mother’s milk is nectar to the child. Minimum for the first 6 months, the child needs it. This keeps the child immune to illness in coming years of life.
Replacement to mother’s milk is cow’s milk.

I am not a doctor. I just know and have shared with you all.

ANGER MANAGEMENT

I used to feel aggressiveness in my nervous system and my behaviour with others was said to be arrogant. Loud talking, winning an argument and losing a friend or good relation were my bad habits. And above all, for all this I did not feel any remorse and held others responsible for any wrong behavour.

But from the inside, I felt it is wrong and I should manage it. Yesterday, an Ayurveda from JIVA Ayurved centre was talking on a TV channel perhaps Care World. He gave very simple remedy to manage anger to a caller on phone.

The remedy I practiced and found today that I am in control of my voice and behaviour. The burning sensation in my brain nerves is calm.

I bought a small bottle of almond oil (Badam Rogan) and a nasal dropper.

• I dropped a few drops of almond oil in my nostrils yesterday evening.
• I again dropped the oil today morning .
• I have found that my head is calm and I feel talking to others with a smile
than talk arrogantly.
• What an easy and effective way to manage anger! What I could not do for so many years, that I achieved overnight. Wonder!

My observation: The oil has worked on my nervous system as mobile oil works on the parts of the engine of car. I will continue for many days so that I may become totally tolerant of others and the circumstances. Situations and circumstances are 10% rest 90% is our reaction to the situation and circumstances.

Self-Control

Swami Sivananda says that Self-Control is control exercised over one’s self. It is the power or habit of having one’s emotions, desires and appetites, senses and mind under control.

Control yourself first. Then you can control others.

Self-control clears the mind, strengthens will-power and judgment. It elevates your character. It gives you freedom, peace, bliss and joy.

He who conquers himself is greater than the commander-in-chief who conquers a country.

Control the senses and mind. You will attain self-realisation.

Conquer thyself. Till you have done this, you are only a slave of your senses.

He who rules his passions, desires, cravings and senses is the real king of kings. Crowns are nothing for him.

Every temptation that is resisted, every evil thought that is overcome, every desired or craving that is destroyed, every wrong action that is checked paves a long way to the attainment of everlasting peace and bliss.

Self-control gives you power to withstand trial, to bear suffering and to face danger.


Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do.
– Lou Holtz.

STRESS BUSTER

BEAT it with your attitude.
BY RENE SINGH
A Chandigarh based Pschotherapist

Each individual is unique and each of us responds differently to a stressful situation. The problem of stress is not taken as seriously as it should be.

Modern science, despite major technological achievements, has so far failed to find a way to measure it. Most people who are stressed don’t even know how critical their situation is. Some even fail to respond as they suppress their symptoms wonderfully.

Familiarity with stress is very important. It is only through identifying with the condition and understanding it that we can learn to handle how to handle it.

Observing the body’s response to stress:

• Identifying physical signs of stress.
• Understanding one’s genetic and environmental make-up objectively.

These factors are very important in identifying a condition.

Managing Stress:


• Recognizing stress reaction.
• Reduce further production of stress reaction.
• Address the stress reaction and chemicals already produced.
• Manage the residual stress.

Stress is not always harmful but it has its benefits too. For attitude is the most important in life. If we keep that going, nothing in the world can get to us.

Focus on Change:

Focus on change is the key once you have managed to identify a condition, you should be able to change it.

Change is the only constant:

Change brings in:


• New information
• New demands
• New challenges.

The human being has a habit of resisting anything new initially. Anything unknown we have to deal with causes stress.

BEST APPROACH

• Analyse the situation
• Assess the need for our purpose.

A positive focus means you recognize the benefits of opportunities around you and use them to your advantage.

Changing the internal system:

Set up filters within yourself to cut down the impact of external stressors. To deal with stress this is very vital. For example, “ I hated noodles two years ago. No I love them.” It is how we decide to reconcile our mind.
