क्या आप विकसित हैं?

भारत एक विविधताओं का देश जहाँ २२ मुख्य भाषाएँ और करीब 780 अन्य/क्षेत्रीय भाषाएँ बोली जाती है। पिछले 50 वर्षो में 250 से भी अधिक भाषाएँ  विलुप्त हो चुकी हैं। प्रत्येक भाषा के साथ उस प्रजाति का ज्ञान भी विलुप्त हो जाता है, और न चाहते हुए भी वह देश विकासशील ही बना रहता है क्योंकि वहां के वासी दुसरो की नक़ल करने लगते, कुछ वास्तविक जिसे अपना कह सके, जैसा कुछ अविष्कृत ही नहीं कर पाते। यही कटु सत्य और देश के विकास की बाधा है। 

हाँ मैं हिंदी, संस्कृत, मराठी, बिहारी, उर्दू, गुजराती, आसामी, तमिल, बंगाली और भी कई देशज एवं क्षेत्रीय भाषाएँ जनता हू जो पुरातन काल से असीमित ज्ञान खुद में लिए हुए इस पवित्र भूमि पर विचरण कर रही है और देशवासियो को पुकार रही है की कोई  इस नवयौवन पीड़ी में सामने आये और अथाह ज्ञान की पूंजी से भरी भाषा को देवकण्ठ में स्थापित करे और फिर यही तो विश्व के कल्याण का मार्ग भी है। 

हम स्पेनिश, जर्मन, अंग्रेजी, फ्रेंच और न जाने कितनी तरह की भाषाए सीखते हैं जो हमारी सीखने की काबिलियत को दर्शाती है और ये प्रशंसनीय भी है, किन्तु क्यों न आज परदेसियों को मौका दिया जाए की वो हमसे हमारी भाषा सीखने का प्रस्ताव रखें, ऐसा होने पर विश्वास मानिए आपको अंग्रेजी की २ लाइन बोलने की तुलना में कहीं ज्यादा गर्व का अनुभव  होगा। 

सारांश यही है की हमारा लक्ष्य खुदको खोकर के सफलता  पाना नहीं, अपितु  सफलता हासिल करके खुदको विश्व में स्थापित करना है, एक पहचान के रूप में और इसको कहते है 'विकसित' होना। 

आपका दिन मंगलमय हो!

Difference between Content writing & Creative writing

Writing is an art, it is a very old saying but every time we ponder over it, we find that writing is not so complicated as our school professor and literati say. Actual writing is not an art, but our thinking or way of expression on the white blank paper, is an art that tells the story about an object that we descry very clearly with an opinion based on certain facts on the ground sometimes. 

Although not every person believe in above definition so why not categorize some writing art and their respective usage so that you don't have to put your foot in your mouth when next time you decide to finish a writing job. So here's the difference in brief words...

1. Creative writing- Not in difficult words; Creative writing is proper literature that you learn in your school or as a subject of higher education. Poems, poetry, ode etc. are the best examples of this kind of writing. In laconic words, whole literature that focuses on strict rules & use of language in the way of expression and also very profound in nature is Creative writing. Language Study and the use of deep knowledge in writing is known as Creative writing.

Problems that you might face:

2. Continuous learning and study of literature (modern and traditional) is required.

3. This subject is not logical like Reasoning or Quantitative aptitude so you need deeper understanding and good memory, both at once.

4. Needs a lot of practice, you can't do mistakes on a professional level, that's why to make your write up perfect you use proof reading many times. "The more you write with perfection, the less time it takes to be perfect".

2. Content writing- If you penchant to write as free as a bird and you've got a very fine communication skills then content writing is could be an area of your interest. Content writing is for website, blogs & online magazines. Every word you write on www is counted as a 'Content'. There is a huge demand of good content. "The more engaging you write, The more money you make", it is absolutely true. There are so many content writers and too much work related to content, but the real winner is the only one who writes quality content & if you are really good at this job then you should never settle for low paid jobs because you deserve more than that. Content writing sometimes make you a celebrity. It is a very modern style of writing and basic need of today's technology so this area has much exposure.

Top 5 habits that decide your career

People think that minor things are minor & they do not affect our lives much. You ever heard like

"Great things are done by a series of small things brought together."Vincent Van Gogh

That's true, this is why we shouldn't neglect minor things or habits. Habits are the acts that possess 80% of total ways that are used to do some work in our daily life. Interesting, isn't it? This article will describe you that what habits of yours clarify that in what thing you are good so that you should choose your career accordingly. 

1. You talk too much- People around you run away from you just because of your blabbering habit, also you are not so good at keeping secrets. This suggest that you are made for being some T.V. celeb like Anchor or Radio Jockey, but that's not it! You have many other career options as you can talk for hours without a "Mass Communication Degree". As if you talk too much in front of many people, but effectively & maintaining good humor, then you have a better scope in door to door Marketing, Campaigning, Teaching Personality development classes (for speaking), Stand Up Orator and much more.

All you have to do is to recognize that where and when you can talk effectively, even talking needs a better plan, right folks? So next time Speak out loud!

2. You debate on everything- You find every statement & every action debatable. You only agree on something when you find its logical explanation otherwise you remain unsatisfied and unrest. This is not a bad habit even if other get annoyed because you have a great career in Analyst, Critics & other Strategic Planning jobs in multi-national organizations.

Only one thing you need to maintain is that every logic should be based on the true ground & facts and also develop habit to listen others as well so as to see every side of a matter. This will increase the ability of reasoning and people will listen to you in a positive way.

3. You calculate everything- You find it hard to do every thing without thinking its variables. You make budgets, making list of things that you want in specific numbers, you count days in calendars for every upcoming event, you have a pocket diary in which you mention every detail with numbers & sometimes you draw mathematical graphs of daily expenditure & savings for fun! Of course, you adapt a calculative manner of working and it is a great habit.

The options for your career are wide open as Analyst, Mathematician, Bank jobs, Accountancy & some other scientific and professional fields.  

4. You read everything & every detail, even a boring book too!- Of course, you are a bibliophile, for you there is a beauty in every word & you imagine a vivid which helps you to understand better. sometimes you even read tough books too which are of your elder brother or younger kin. In short you are in love with books.

You are a scholar in simple words, but when it comes to career, you are lucky that scholars have hundred's of options for job that's why they termed as Scholar. You know a li'l bit of everything that allows you to try any job in starting. If your reading habit at its extreme than being a Librarian, writer, teacher, reader, proof reader, research work & theoretical streams of every field suits you best.

5. You do nothing, but rest, yet you want money for living!- This case is very much complex for those who believes in hard work. It is quite simpler case for believers of fate & destiny, but now see it as by the point of view of the those persons who want to do nothing. They actually wish to do hard work, but they get exhausted very soon by everything they do. They want a simple thing that they work swiftly without any tension and pressure and then they get money in amount that satisfy their needs.

You know what, these are the peoples who are wanted in every organization and company culture! Can't believe? But it's true. These kind of people always find a smart way of every work that consist less work, lesser time & more output, in other words we can state it as "Astounding efficiency". Software developer, Game developer, Website Developer, Equity market jobs & Ethical hacking are some of the jobs that suits best for these people as these jobs needs mind and smart approach rather than hardcore field work.

Top 5 Women Writing Creations (Literary category)

Today is a big day! Why? Because the whole earth is celebrating for half of the earth. Yes, that's true. Half of the earth, The half part of God's best creation- Women. A man plays many roles through his life but every time he plays a role, the support he needed is a woman. That's why a woman not only supports but also plays her own role simultaneously, not mention about greater responsibility that women bear.

From the ancient time people think that the strength of a woman is generally neglected by mankind. It is not the whole truth, some women have been proving that they don't need anyone's attention and They can earn the respect and recognition from their own, they have been leading the world. It is time to celebrate the female achievement across the globe and to express our gratitude to Women.    

The theme of International Women's Day, 2015 is

"Make It Happen"

Today, why should not we discuss about legends who "make it happen" and some legendary writers as well, so that we can share and encourage the respectful aspect of women world that we have in our mind and heart.

Top 5 Legendary Women of all Time-

• Catherine II, Empress of Russia 1729 – 1796- Woman who made the Russia a powerful nation on the first place in whole world.
• Florence Nightingale 1820 – 1910 (“The Lady with the Lamp”)
• Cleopatra 69-30 BC- The best strategist of all time, considered by experts.
• Joan of Arc (1412-1431) – Young girl who inspired French to revolt against British rule. Burnt at the stake for witchcraft.
• Many other legends like Indira Gandhi & Mother Teresa are inspiring us and even in modern era many more like- Oprah Winfrey, Hilary Clinton & Billie Jean King are contributing to lead the new world with their knowledge. 

Women's Writing and Legendary writers-

A brief explanation- 

Academic discipline of Women's writing is the based on the notion that the experience of women, historically, has been shaped by their gender, and so women writers by definition are a group worthy of separate study,Their texts emerge from and intervene in conditions usually very different from those which produced most writing by men ( Blain, Virginia, Isobel Grundy, and Patricia Clements, eds. The Feminist Companion to Literature in English. New Haven and London: Yale UP, 1990.)

In simple words, women's brain works differently and also as their e.q. (emotional quotient) is higher which makes them more creative and imaginative according to a study. But don't be confused that this concept is only limited to writers & writing. In fact, it is also emphasizes on the woman cast as in lead role in a novel or book because, then, a writer has to study, think and write exactly as women think.

Here are some legendary woman thinkers and writers who shook the world with their talent-

• Mary Scott, The Female Advocate: A Poem Occasioned by Reading Mr Duncombe's Feminead. London: Joseph Johnson, 1774.
• Charlotte Mary Yonge, Biographies of Good Women (First Series, 1862; Second Series, 1865)
• Julia Kavanagh, Women in France during the Eighteenth Century (1850) 
• J.K. Rowling- Who can forget the magical world of "Harry Potter" series.
• Toni Morisson-Toni Morrison is an American novelist, editor, and professor. Her novels are known for their epic themes, vivid dialogue, and richly detailed characters. Among her best known novels are The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon and Beloved.
• A M Homes-Homes is known for controversial topics in her writing, and her satirical novel "May We Be Forgiven" won her the 2013 Women’s Prize for Fiction.
• Zadie Smith-Zadie was lauded as the "Next big thing" when her first book, White Teeth, debuted in 2000, while she was only 22 years old.
• Donna Tartt-Donna Tartt won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for "The Goldfinch". It was no surprise, really, since the much-anticipated novel made the New York Times best-seller list during its first week on the shelves.
• Jhumpa Lahiri-Prize-winning novelist Jhumpa Lahiri is the author of well known creations Unaccustomed Earth, The Namesake and Interpreter of Maladies.
• Suzanna Arundhati Roy-Known for the 1998 Man Booker Prize for Fiction-winning novel The God of Small Things (1997), which became the biggest-selling book by a non expatriate Indian author. 

The contribution of women to this earth is unparalleled. World should support and encourage the efforts made by women. By empowering women kind, we can make this world a better place.

Happy Women's Day, Let's celebrate it!

Top 5 ways to avoid spams/Fake offers

As we discussed earlier about spams/fake offers, which is not a very harmful issue unless you are very careful about spending money on the internet, but what if it is necessary to deal with this as in the case of bloggers, website owners and business persons who are present on the internet and need digital marketing, what then? The answer is simple, recognize and avoid the fake offerings. Fraudulence is everywhere in the world, whether it is real or virtual. Being a "digitally educated person" it is our responsibility to save ourselves as well as others from these situations. Here are some methods to prevent money and valuable time from this monkey business.

Methods To Avoid Spams/Fake Offerings (Expert's review)

Use optional E-mail id- If you are frequently register/sign up on websites, then NEVER USE your PRIMARY E-MAIL address, keep it private and use another one which is not too much important for you. This e-mail address also called as "Disposable e-mail address". Generally spammers extract mail ids by special programs (bots). Similarly for business purpose, use your disposable IDs anywhere on social networks.

Make yourself invisible- Sounds interesting & difficult, right? Well, it is not difficult at all. You can be unseen for spammers. Make your id, username too difficult to guess. Sometime, spammers and fake message senders just guess a recipient's id and send a message. In case of mail they can only send 1 message to 1 person at a time, but in case of social network they have an approach to millions while they are just 1 click away. Try to make it hard for them. By this, you will be able to avoid many such fake ids as well.

Huddle every information- You have seen an offer and now you are thinking to make a move. In my view you should have wait and see that with whom you are going to contact. Don't be tempted so much & don't be in hurry to avail the offer.

"Patience is virtue" 

Check the online presence of the individual/organization which is offering you. Go to their page, website or blog and see if they are regularly updated so you can ensure that they are in active state and not just made everything to look like real.

If any individual has a profile, then check on him by profile. Generally, if an individual is a committed professional then he/she never uses his real profile, but a page or a profile that provide every info and contact details about him and not to mention about great profile picture about a company or advertisement related to his work. In their network you will find many contacts related to this business. Also, they, publicly show every detail on profile as it is their business podium so there will be no secrecy with potential customers. It is same for every social network and works all the time

If you are seeing a page then read "Impressum".

Contact- Now you are almost sure that the offering and person is real, still you should have been rigorous as you don't want to lose your money on any step and don't want to be deceived. Then it's now time to contact them on phone, video call or by any other means. If offer giver only provides a mail id which has no information on it then there is a 99 % possibility that this is fake.If they provide a their contact details which are real and you are talking to them, then talk about procedure of payments, reason of the offering. Again, I request, if you have a doubt then don't suppress it just because of desperation to avail a tempting offer. 

A real individual or company never provides an offer without logic & profit so don't hesitate to ask them the reason behind the offering, payment mode and procedure of advance money/full payment that suits you.

Observation- Remember- online world is profitable to those who know how to handle it. You have been availing the offer and it pays you back, that doesn't ensure total security. If you are spending money and in business relation with this individual/organization, then you should keep in mind that 1% possibility is still there that they can be fake and they are going to ambush customers for a big load of money. So how to be sure now? This is also a very simple and based on common sense. NEVER promise to pay at one time. For example-

"A fraudsters promise you to bring 1 million visitors per month in 200$. You make a pact and then after one month you see that he delivered 1 million visitors really! Now you have made the payment and you both again agreed on another 1 million visitors deal. After one month you find that there are no million visitors and that person with no more in contact with you, plus the Google found out that those previously delivered million viewers were fake so now you will be penalized. Now you are between the devil and the deep sea!"

So you see the difference? A real company never asks for payment in one time. They provide you service with their contact details and place so you can verify them and then they decide package and a payment procedure with service promises which are reasonable.

In case of individual & professionals, if they are not too famous then they call you first and for the service they ask for payment on daily/weekly/monthly basis (small installments of amount periodically). In the meantime, you can verify that visitors/likes/followers are organic or not.

These are very simple and almost non technical/non complex steps that anyone can follow and avoid fraudsters and spammers from their business.

Top 5 methods to ensure spammer's/fake identity

Hello story lovers!, these days I am stressing on essays & articles focused on social media content and their marketing because the world is online, we can share what we want to, so why not talk about some things that could hinder you from sharing, irritates you too much & sometimes it can harm you as well. It would be better if we share the methods to prevent these situations and for that, first we have to understand the problem, so, would you mind if I, first, tell you the reasons of spamming and identities of spam? No, you wouldn't mind? Then good for your online health! Let's talk about this.

What is a spam?

According to the universally adopted definition- "A spam is irrelevant or unsolicited messages sent over the Internet, typically to large numbers of users, for the purposes of advertising, phishing, spreading malware, etc." Well, that is the spam. Spam may be a recognized term for you if you use E-mails and it is almost harmless, as it is just a message and mail also filters it for you, but if you are on social sites then you certainly would be looking the other form of spam or fake advertising via messages or posts, Which could mean you harm financially or meant to take the advantage of you as for obtaining 'click' on a link. In other words you can see it as dodge/Ponzi scheme. You are an active blogger, website manager or a person having an online presence where you have to buy 'likes' or 'fans' then you are the most likely target of spammers.

The 5 proved signs of spammers/fake ads (Based on expert's theory and my analysis over time)

Fake promises- This is a very first move of a spammer. They sent or advertise a tempting message in their short description. They promise you million of views in very short time like a day for some dollars (or any currency). This advertisement or message is so tempting that you couldn't resist yourself from "Take a look" despite of your logic that denies any real existence of the other. Observe this-

                                                                              

Message from an anonymous profile or account id- You have a message from someone whose name is appearing but no authentic profile pic that you can see then it could be fake, you can go on this profile and you should dig up any information provided on the profile associated with this anonymous sender.

Fake advertising posts with no comments or only with good comments of people who're seemed to be fake- Well, this is a tricky one! You see an advertising post and then to check reliability you look into the comment section. Here if you find no comments then you should avoid trying and if you see some good comments then this could be the case where the advertiser does fake comments by other ids to make it real. You can contact or ask for some more details, but don't go directly to spend some money even if they provide some "visitors or like" before payment because it is not too hard to provide some fake likes for short duration which are not organic but hard to mark as fake.

Writing style- Are you a fan of "Sherlock Holmes"? If not then become one because in the today's context where fraudulent is at peak, you should have the capability to isolate right from wrong. This is similar with these spammers. There is a specific touch in writing style of the spammers. Always notice that a trusted company or individual-

1. Never send you a message.

2. Post with high quality graphics which send a message  (not a personal message with or without messages).

Now, about writing style, you could have been noticed that they use words which are very old in sales (door to door/ t.v, radio marketing) and their stress on those words too much, such as-

• "Free Free Free! Yes, it totally cost you nothing"
• "This is no joke! Try it today, click the link below"
• "All work is original, see the comments of people in image given below"

Many more sentences like this you will observe, but everyone knows that good company or famous experts never promise too tempting and doesn't post these badly structured advertisements. Companies and professionals only talk about the real situation with their real market prices in good advertisements and no personal messages.

You have won a offer! Wait! Really?- Oh no! You couldn't be lucky that you have been doing work, but not this much that you won a great concession or jackpot offer from a company while you never contacted before to any company. Of course, there is a 99.99 % chance that it is fake. You know you just have to delete that message instantly from your log.

Apart from this, spams or part of E-mail which also has some characteristics, even though mail, filters it for you, but sometimes spammers take a smart move, so here are the indications that will help you stay one step ahead from spammers-

1. Recipient’s email address is not in the To: or Cc: fields
2. Message body contains remote image
3. From: and Reply To: address are different
4. Message contains only HTML body
5. Message contains many or only tags

These are the some general indications that you could have a spam mail. Spam is not a great threat at all, but next time, whenever you think to spend some money then you should be aware a Li'l bit with whatever you are watching at is true or not.

In the next part I will share some easy steps about prevention from spammers and methods that will work as a confirmatory test if you are serious about an advertisement or a message.

Have a nice day!

  

Top 5 Topics You can Write about:Chapter 2

As we previously discussed some methods and topics (especially for bloggers) which are very good to kick start up the writing now we will discuss about the typeof writings. Yes, that's true! Writing has also variouskinds of types. In college days and even now whenever you will ask to someone "Hey! What type of writing do you like?" they will answer in a sporadic manner as "I like-fiction, romance, Mills & Boon, biography, poetry, slang content writing & bla bla bla...".

So now you can see the difference, people don't know about types and categories of writing and that is the reason why they couldn't come up with an idea about which topic they should write. So first of all, here I'll give you the brief introduction of categories of writing, please note that it is not an educational category structure but a simplified categorization designed by me that includes both traditional writing phenomena and modern writing concepts.

(img source:histlit.fas.harvard.edu)

So first of all I am going to write the forms of writing that you all know very well-

Fiction - Based on hypothetical conditions and events as "The Invisible Man" by H.G. Wells, "Famous Five" by Enid Blyton "Twilight" & other novels such as published by "Mills & Boon", so you can understand these are just stories which have no relation with a living or dead person as though they could be inspired from real lives or theories or inspire the world such as "Time Machine" of H.G. Wells inspired many movies' stories like "Back To The Future", "17 Again"and many stories published by Marvel & DC Comics. Apart from this, in Hindi literature you would like many stories written by Jai Shankar Prasad- "Kankaal", Munshi Premchand-"Gau Daan" & many others by Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyaya

If fiction is like based on a "true story" while you can't decide the authenticity of story then you can refer it as 'Semi Fiction'.

Non-fiction - This category includes the real stories as it is not a vivid of someone's thinking only, but a real opinion inspired by a true incident and conditions. This generally includes informative work and writer takes responsibility of authenticity. Non-fiction is-

• Biography
• Auto-biography
• Travel books
• Reminiscence
• Historic facts and incidents
• Journals
• Essays and articles on an issue or art
• This is just major types of non-fiction that you'll see in general.

Poetry- Poetry is something that is considered the very highest form of literary art. It needs imagination and good knowledge of Vocab and Grammar. It uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of literature. Manypoets are there that you should read like: Oscar Wilde, William Shakespeare, Mahadevi Verma(Chayavadi Yug), Suryakant Tripathi Nirala (Gandhiwadi), Jai Shankar Prasad (Ojaswi Dhaara), Ghalib (Sher-O-Shayari).

Traditional writing styles are very basics and famous style & one who understands the concepts of the writing, they can easily act as a wordsmith, they can blend the literature in a creative form and derive other new styles as Ghalib, Mahadevi Verma and William Shakespeare.

These are some things that you need to know about literature before getting started. Next time I'll share modern writing styles with you as content writing. So give a sigh of a bliss and sit tight to read more.
