Hax and Fax: How I managed to reduce my screen time

Image
 Dear Readers, as the titles Hax (Hacks) and Fax (Facts) suggest, you might think "Here comes yet another blogger discussing the disadvantages of mobile phone devices." That's not the fact here to be utterly honest. In this blog post, I will share some Hacks which I managed to incorporate to reduce my screen time of mobile drastically. Also, I will share some Facts that might help a bit too. What do we tend to do in our free time nowadays? We either scroll through social media sites or play games online on the phone. Although this is the same thing I do, I would suggest keeping the usage limited and not too much. Not long ago, I suffered a severe headache in the backside of my head, implying that it was a kind of pressure on the eyes. Even though I keep wearing blue ray glasses, it became unbearable at a point.

The Subtle Art of being Pretentious

Image
 We might have come across multiple scenarios in life in which we might come across many people who always love to brag about themselves. They might crack silly jokes, or humiliate someone across the group for no reason even though they themselves are not very capable. Usually, pretentious people act smart so as to impress someone. Though this acting isn't real, in some cases, it might feel real to their target (whom they are trying to impress). In social circles, being labeled as pretentious is often seen as a social faux pas. It’s a trait that many try to avoid, fearing the judgment and disdain of others. However, what if I told you that there's a way to harness the power of pretentiousness as a clever hack to navigate complex situations? Yeah seriously, well many people might seem to consider this as a negative trait in some people but there is an art, an art in which only a fraction of people are experts. In this blog, we will try to look into the great uses of this negativ

Decoding the fondness of Nostalgia

 Imagine walking down an old video game store on your way to the office. You see a group of kids playing games inside. The moment you see them, you tend to go back in time and process your old memories. Okay leave that, walking further, you see another group of kids playing gully cricket. Once again you go back in time and try to remember you had no worries (apart from doing school homework of course), and you have lived the best time of your lives way earlier. This feeling of going back in time (or I must say good times), is defined as Nostalgia. When someone says about Nostalgia, it basically means going back down memory lane, reminiscing old times. Sometimes I too go back into my childhood and imagine the time when the lights were out, there were no mobile phones, and no investors to handle power cuts. We would light up candles, and people from the society used to gather around and talk. Big Men one group, Ladies one group, Kids one group like that we used to gather and discuss the

 Time... Time is Money... Time is important... We keep hearing this a lot of times (again I said the word 😀), that Time is Money and all that stuff. But what makes time an important part of our human lives? Let us find out. We often say when we have to plan for the future that "A lot of time is left, we will do it later". Also sometimes it might feel that time goes way faster when you enjoy something. During the hard times, it feels like the time has stopped and at this point, most people tend to give up easily. But we should remember that Everything, be it bad, be it good, happens for our own well-being. Destiny could have planned something better for us so try and master the art of patience in bad times. Patience:  Are you patient enough to wait in long queues? Are you patient enough to handle a headcrack friend around you? Mastering the art of patience is rarely seen in people these days. Either people lose their temper too easily or may give up in tough situations in rat
