In A Race To Cope Up With The Trends, Are We Forgetting Our Sanskar?

Evolving does not mean leaving behind people who backed us to be capable and accomplish our life goals. Grandparents form the strongest pillar when it comes to become a person with values. Being in trend is fine but getting away from our roots is not. With time lifestyles have changed; but the concern remains as - is this change profitable to our near and dear ones, especially our family? 

This blog is a sheer attempt by a student at AISSMS Institute of Management which tells you why to cope up with the trends sticking to your sanskars. Give it a read and see how it helps you alter your mindset to a better living.

 

Old Age Home Heart Touching Story

One day visit to an old age home... superior’s office, one couple was also there with their kid and they were having a conversation with the office head...The couple was there to admit the name of their father in that particular old age home and the office head was explaining them the formalities regarding it.

The office head asked the man to fill the form, as he started filling it.

The kid inquired, ” Papa for whom you are filling this form?”

The man replied, “I am filling this form for your grandfather as he’s going to stay here from now onwards”

The kid made a puppy face & questioned again, “Why won’t he stay with us anymore, do I bother him a lot?”

The man laughed and said,” No no my son you don’t bother him, it’s just he’s old now and needs to be taken care of that’s why he’ll stay here, this uncle will take good care of him.”

The kid enthusiastically said to the man, ” Then I’ll also fill one form for you so when you’ll get old I’ll send you here and you’ll be taken good care of because I love you”.

Everybody was shocked to hear this thing because the kid thought old age homes are meant to be taken care of old people but for the mature human like us, the old age homes are for giving up the responsibilities on!!

 

Conclusion

A nuclear family is today’s trend but in a race to follow this trend we forgot that each and every member of the family plays really major role in our lives everybody has something or the other to teach us. 

Our parents or grandparents are not staying with us, it’s we who are staying with them, understand the difference.Our grandparents do not need a stick for the support they need us to be their support. 

It is very rightly said that ” Bachpan or Budhapa ek jaisa hota hai, jaha insan ko bass Kisi Apne ke sath ki jarurat Hoti hai”Let sanskar and trend go hand in hand and respect every human.

Career And Higher Studies Opportunities In Chemical Engineering

 

A Chemical Engineer are entrusted to develop reactions, a variety of synthesis pathways for newer products, novel product separation techniques, efficient energy utilization studies, preparation, and analysis of catalysts, enzymes, waste reduction processes, and many more tasks in the research laboratories.

Chemical Engineering is one such profession that beckons many aspirants to one of the highly paid professions with plenty of opportunities in India and abroad. Chemical Engineering is the science that is concerned with the conversion of raw materials into a range of valuable finished products using principles of physics, chemistry, and mathematics. 

Chemical Engineers along with their counterparts from other engineering disciplines work together to plan, design, build, test, operate and troubleshoot mammoth petroleum refineries, complex petrochemical and chemical plants where important commodities such as gasoline, diesel, kerosene, cooking gas, aviation fuel, tar, methane, olefins, aromatics, acids, salts, and many more are manufactured. The prominent inter-disciplinary industries demanding skills of Chemical Engineers comprise environmental, non-conventional energy, bio-chemical, bio-medical, automotive, aerospace, explosives, nuclear energy, nuclear reprocessing, etc. 

These industries call for the expertise of Chemical Engineers to contribute to developing and improving products. From the manufacture of ultra-fast, computer microchips to development in process stream recycle and subsequent reuse of products, treatment of chronic diseases, making wastewater potable, harnessing non-conventional energy technologies and products chemical engineers developed to make this world better place. 

The role of Chemical Engineers is essentially to design these processes, maintaining safe and efficient operation of these plants & machinery, and improve upon them while following environment-friendly, safe and ethical practices. Chemical engineers are thus often termed as ‘Universal Engineers’ owing to their versatile scientific and technical prudence.A Chemical Engineer are entrusted to develop reactions, a variety of synthesis pathways for newer products, novel product separation techniques, efficient energy utilization studies, preparation, and analysis of catalysts, enzymes, waste reduction processes, and many more tasks in the research laboratories.

How To Beat The Exam Stress

Stress is nothing but a response to an activity by the body. It can be positive and negative both. When it boosts your confidence it is a good one but when it creates a burden it becomes a negative one. The World Health Organization (WHO) constitution states:

Students, Exams and Stress

Students are the most common victims of such stress patterns. Stress during exam period in students is seen increasing today. Reasons for this stress are as many as you can consider. Being stressed not only affects their performance but also invites sickness during exams. The fear of failure or the expectations of a glorious result adds-up to this already built stress.Effectively dealing with such stress can boost a student’s moral, improve their performance, and improve their mental and emotional health as well.

Stress and Mental Health

Mental health is foundation of an individual’s collective ability to think as a human and to interact with others. Today’s competitive world makes it necessary for the students to be able to effectively cope up with their daily stress. Excessive and prolonged stress in students may lead to serious mental disorders and other health-related issues. Knowing ways to cope with stress can ensure sound and healthy mental state for students with improved academic performance and hale and hearty living, too.
