First things first. What is focus? Focus is the act of concentrating your interest or activity on something. In order to concentrate on one thing, you must ignore many other things. Focus is the key to success and happiness. The most successful person on this planet is highly focused as they pay attention to the present moment and present tasks. They are fully engaged in all the activities and do their work more effectively and creatively.
You are living in a modern world where you can get distracted easily by a lot of things every day. You can try everything, but if you lack focus in your life, it is pretty impossible to become a successful person. Focus will help you to discover the path that you don’t even know exists. We become so blind with our problems in life that we forget to focus on possibilities that are around us. Focus will help you to expand your intelligence and knowledge. When you start to focus on learning things, your knowledge will expand automatically and will help you to be more productive at your work. Focus helps us to determine the level of achievements we will get into our life. When we focus on achieving something in our life, we will reach our destination. Focus helps to be a successful person faster than expected.
In addition, to be more focused, prepare your brain with what you want to achieve. We should just focus on one thing, mainly we should avoid multitasking. If we are focusing on multiple things, we all will get confused. We also should take regular breaks, do some meditation, regular exercise to improve our mental focus. Furthermore, we should eliminate distractions and become active listeners.
Focus can change your life if used correctly. Successful people know the importance of focus in life. Our focus will determine the level of success we achieve. When the focus is aligned with action, it will produce great results. As a result, Focus can truly change everything.
“The direction of your focus is the direction your life will move. Let yourself move toward what is good, valuable, strong and true.” – Ralph Marston
कोठाभित्र, भित्री दुःख निस्किन्छ,
तर बाहिर खुसीको भाव झल्किन्छ ।
के सत्य के झुटो, त्यो उसलाई मात्र पत्तो छ,
तर त्यो चोटको मर्म कोठामा पोखिन्छ ।
कोठाभित्र धेरै अँध्यारो छ,
तर बाहिर अनुहारमा त्यो खुसीको झलक देखिन्छ ।
त्यो कोठा उसको लागि सधैं अँध्यारो नै भइराख्छ,
त्यसैले होला बाहिर एउटा अनि कोठाभित्र अर्कै मान्छे भेटिन्छ ।
It’s already September! Just three more months for a new and “happy” year. It was just March when the lockdown happened. It's over six months, we have been staying home and wishing that this year would end and we will begin with a fresh start to the year 2021. This year was terrific and unpleasant. From the coronavirus to protests in the US for George Floyd, we have been fighting this year and trying to survive this year.
When we see this year, it feels like we are in some movies, fighting for our existence. When I think about this year, it feels like I am behind bars, staying in one place, and counting the days and months about how this year will end and I will be free. But I guess it's not going to happen very soon. I hope that it's not a trailer of a movie because if it is then I believe that it will be a challenge for not just me but everyone to survive the movie. According to research done in the UK, it was said that 10% of people who were quarantined, suffered from high depressive symptoms due to the recent pandemic. In the recent news, we have also heard about the wildfire that has spread on the West coast of the USA and due to the fire, many people have lost their lives and it has been very difficult for the national centers to control it. Not just this, but even in Australia (a few months back), the fire was uncontrollable and many animals got extinct. Many people have lost their jobs because of the pandemic and the unemployment rate has increased rapidly this year. It has been difficult for people who do not have money to feed themselves. The only option they have been left with is death. The doctors have come to our help and they have been saving the lives of so many people. Saving the lives of people during this pandemic and risking their own life has never been so easy. But for the survival of people and the world, doctors have come as gods. Not just the doctors, but everyone who has helped people to survive in 2020 has shown an act of bravery and this act of heroism will always be remembered by every individual.
The hardship of people has increased and there has been no other way for people to survive. Not just the pandemic but all the other problems that have risen in this year has made one’s life more difficult.. From traveling around the world before to now being able to just walk outside for essential goods, our lives have completely changed. Even after this year ends, we will have to live in a very different way. It will be completely different from the way we used to live before. We have to fight and be brave enough for tomorrow rather than being disappointed with the present life. As we have heard the song, "It's a new day, it's a new way", we also have to start a fresh day with a fresh start, with no more worries of the past and just focusing on the present. We just have one life, so just focus on surviving the present and fighting it for a better and a new future. Let's fight 2020 and survive through it making a way for a better tomorrow.
नमस्कार, म कुर्सी ! मलाई त्यो दुईखुट्टे स्टुल भनेर नझुक्किनुहोस् नि । ४ तगडा खुट्टा भएको, बस्दा आराम महसुस हुने, काठ वा प्लास्टिकले बनेको उही कुर्सी हुँ म । मलाई सिकर्मीले जन्म दिए; राम्रो प्लाईले बनेको छु म । मेरो काम अनौठो सुनिएला तर यो काम गर्दा म खुब रमाउँछु । आफू उभिएर जहिले चार खुट्टा टेकेर अरूलाई बस्ने अवसर दिन्छु ।
म एउटा कारखानामा जन्मिएँ । त्यहाँबाट खट्टक खट्टक गर्दै लगेर फर्निचर पसलको अगाडि म नमुनाको रूपमा राखिएँ । यसरी अरूबाट छुट्टिन पाउँदा मक्ख परेँ म । मलाई एउटा परिवारले दुई-तीन दिनमै खरिद गरेर लग्याे र त्यही परिवारको घरमा मैले मेरो जीवन गुजारिरहेको छु । सुन्छु कि - अरू प्रकारका नि कुर्सी रहेछन्; भोज खान जाने ठाउँमा मेरा साथीहरू टन्नै हुँदा रहेछन् । अस्ति त ती मानवहरूले सांसद भवन भन्ने ठाउँमा हाम्रो दुरुपयोग गरेर एक अर्कामाथि हमला गरे भन्ने नि सुनेथेँ !
दिनहरू बित्दै छन् । सधैँ यसरी उभिएर मेरा खुट्टाहरू गल्न थालेका छन् । मभित्र काठ खाने किरा बसेर स्वाट्ट स्वाट्ट पार्दै मेरो नसा काट्दै छन् । खरिद हुँदा खेलौना हल्लाउने छोराले ठुलो भएर अहिले मलाई रिसको झोकमा झटार्दै छ । लाग्छ, अब मेराे जीवनमा धेरै समय बाँकी छैन ।
म एउटा सानो पाठ पढाउन चाहन्छु । त्यो पाठ निःस्वार्थ सेवाको पाठ हो । भन्छन्, सेवाको फल मिठो हुन्छ; म सारा जीवन उभिएँ तर एकरति नि मलाई कसैले बस्ने मौका दिएन । खुट्टा गलेर भाँचिन लागेको बेला पनि म उभिएकै छु र गौरवसाथ उभिन्छु । म जीवनभर उभिएँ तैपनि मेरो मनमा बस्ने सोच आएन । म जस्तै तपाईंलाई नि बेला बेला निस्वार्थी हुन अनुरोध गर्छु । दिन प्रतिदिन मानवता र भलाइ गुम्दै गएको छ । कृपया यसलाई म कुर्सीकाे तर्फबाट मानवहरूका लागि सानो पाठका रूपमा लिनुहाेला र पालन गर्नुहाेला । धन्यवाद ।
Imagination; the word, is something that pops up in a person's mind or the eyes, everyone must have felt it at some point in their life, you might even be out here imagining about kinds of stuff that constantly fill your mind in any situation you are in. If someone says you “imagine a car in front of you” then you instantly have an image of any car of your choice in front of you and just keep that thing in your head and suppose the car. Imagination is a vast thing that is in our head forever, many discoveries happen because of imagination. Imagination has no limits, it's all in your head and no one can stop you from imagining anything in your head.
The main role of imagining something is played by your mind and it can or can’t be controlled, I have no idea about that. It is also said that imagination and the dreams you see are interconnected and have a purpose in a person's life but that just might not be the case as well, what if a person is dreaming of something else and has an image of something else like I do. I keep on imagining a lot of things most of the time even if I’m actively doing something. Dreams and imaginations in my point of view are different and are like sky and land in my case, but as we know it might not be the same for everyone else as everyone born in the universe i.e for us in our planet earth is a unique individual that has their perspective of thinking and might find me wrong in their way. I’ve heard many famous individuals saying that imagination has something to do with a person’s life and if someone can control their mind they can control what they imagine and I find it totally wrong cause what I imagine has nothing to do with my reality and the thing about controlling the mind and imagination I find that wrong too cause how much I try to meditate or concentrate my mind in only one thing I have imaginations of really weird things and I just deny the facts, but as I said it might not be the same in everyone as everyone’s unique and has a different perspective.
Imaginations sometimes can be very hard and stiff that can play with your mind and emotions as well, I’ve seen it in some people where they imagine of something really scary being around them and then they suddenly lose their state of mind control and get scared of their own imaginations and express them emotionally, either crying or shouting; in their own ways. Therefore I say that imagination is something that no one can get a clue of and is just something that they have in themselves to see in them.
तिम्रो पाउमा ढोगेर म जाने छु,
आँखामा आँसु , मन भारी बनाएर जाने छु ।
थाहा छैन परदेशको संसार कस्तो हुने हो,
तर जे भए पनि तिमीलाई खुसी बनाउने छु ।
म सङ्घर्ष गर्ने छु अनि देश फर्कने छु
यो आउने १ वर्ष तिमीबिना १ शताब्दी झैँ हुने छ ।
दसैँसम्म आउन सकिनँ भने,
मेरी कान्छीलाई हेर्नू है, आमै !
तिम्रो माया सबभन्दा ठुलो र निस्वार्थ छ
विदेशको यात्राका लागि आशीर्वाद पाऊँ ।
In the current time, we are forced to stay inside our homes and maintain social distancing. This lockdown loneliness is bothering a lot of us. Everybody’s feeling depressed right now as they are not supposed to travel, meet friends, and have fun. Staying at home all day, watching the mobile screen, and surfing the internet has made our minds numb. There are many things that we can do and we are doing right now like painting, following a workout routine, coding, dancing, and many more.
And In this boring period of time, music has been a good friend of mine and it always has been. It’s the only thing that’s giving me the strength to fight this depressing time. I have been learning new songs on my Ukulele and I am enjoying it a lot. I am glad that I have time to give to music and to myself as well. Sometimes enjoying yourself is a good thing to do. Music helps a lot in changing the moods. Music has a direct effect on our hormones. If we listen to music we enjoy, and it decreases your level of stress in your body. It helps to fight anxiety and boredom. It is necessary for us to keep ourselves physically and mentally healthy and in such times it is a must. As we are disturbed mentally which can affect our health, studies as well as our social behavior. We must be careful about it and should take care of ourselves and our family. It is a must for parents to know how their children are doing as well as for you to utilize this time that you have got which we never have imagined.
So, thanks to music, it has really helped a lot. So, what is on your pandemic checklist?
मैले बन्जर भूमिलाई जोतेँ, गोडेँ, सिञ्चित गरेँ
रहर थियो मकैको बिउ छर्ने
कुटो ,कोदालो लिई हिँडेँ मकै छर्न
टुसा पलायो मेरो इच्छाको
आवश्यकता थियो गोडमेल, मलजल अनि हेरचाहको
मेरो आकाङ्क्षामाथि कुठाराघात गर्दै
मेरो मकैको बिरुवा उखेल्न
बाढी, आँधी, असिनाको नाङ्गो नृत्य प्रत्येक दिन
मेरो आकाङ्क्षा झैँ एक्लो जुझ्दै, युद्ध गर्दै
सङ्घर्षरत
कसैको वास्ता नगरी
मेरो सपना झैँ बढ्न लागेको छ; मेरो मकैको बोट ।
जतिकै अवरोध भए पनि
भगीरथ प्रयासमा कटिबद्ध छ,
एक जुझारु कृषक झैँ
आफ्नो पसिनालाई
अमृतका थोपामा बदल्न,
अझ पनि प्रयासरत छ
मेरो “मकैको बोट” वयस्क हुन, मेरो सपना झैँ ।
What if Late King Prithivi Narayan Shah was not there? Would Nepal be unified as it is? What if Mahatma Gandhi was not there? Would the freedom war ever happen in India? What if Martin Luther King was not there? Would the black people present in the USA fight for their rights? Yes, superheroes exist in the form of a human being, but not everyone can see but the work they do make them superheroes.
A superhero may be a stock figure that possesses skills on the far side those of standard individuals, World Health Organization generally use their powers to assist the planet to become a higher place or is devoted to protecting the public, and stopping evil. Thus, what makes someone a superhero? Their square measure heroes thus their square measure superheroes. For a species to be thought-about “super” they could get to be one issue exceptional. A hero is good but a superhero is further good. They have to possess skills that square measure loads of grand, loads of power, and with broader application than others, most of the time even infeasible for a regular person. Their actions through these skills would exceed customary norms, levels, or limits. Their temperament traits and characteristics are a square measure of the simplest moral standards.
Most importantly, a superhero not only helps anyone in hassle but teaches everyone important life lessons regarding being a good person through example. Superheroes square measure well-known for placing others before themselves. Usually, they sprint into danger and end up paying dearly for his or her courage…and they generally go years–if ever–without the recognition they're. Can anyone be a superhero? We tend to might not be able to fly, grow claws, or renew our limbs — however, I will create a distinction in someone's life. We tend to all have the ability to be a superhero to somebody, even though we tend to don’t have the material to travel with it. Someone is a superhero if facilitate. They assist, somebody after, they would like to help. A superhero uses the issue they have, they would like to assist those in need.
Real-life superheroes leave their thanks to improving the lives of all the individuals they encounter. They need to try no matter it's they'll show someone’s unhealthy day into a decent one. Superheroes wear masks to protect themselves as they are not fond of having credit, fame, or glory for his or her acts. They only need to urge up, save the planet, and forget it ever happened. Their fight transforms credit and accolades. However, it comes from deep at intervals. Tenderness hangs around for press interviews and Spiderman has swung off into the gap before the primary thanks have even been verbalized. So affirmative superheroes exist and you can be one of them.
मानिसको जन्मपछि मृत्यु अवश्य हुन्छ । मानिसको जीवन आमाको कोखबाट सुरु हुन्छ र मृत्युपछि समाप्त हुन्छ । अन्तिम संस्कार मानिसको मृत्युपछि गरिने संस्कार हो । होम्रो देश नेपालमा विभिन्न जतजातिहरूमा आआफ्नै धर्म रीतिरिवाजअनुसार मृत्यु संस्कार गरिन्छ । हामी सबै जनालाई बाहुन, छेत्री, नेवार आदि जातिकाे मृत्यु संस्कारको बारेमा त जानकारी हाेला तर लेप्चा, सुरेलजस्ता लुप्त हुन आँटेको जातको मुत्यु संस्कारको बारेमा हामीमध्ये धेरै जनालाई थाहा नहुन सक्छ । कतिले त नाम पनि सुनेका थिएनौँ होला ।
मुस्लिम परम्पराअनुसार: मुस्लिम समाजमा मानिसको मृत्यु भएपछि लासलाई तीन पटक नुहाइदिन्छन् । त्यसपछि नयाँ लुगा लगाइदिन्छन् । यो समाजमा लासलाई कफनमा राखेर गाड्ने चलन छ । लासलाई सुगन्ध छर्केर प्रार्थना गरी चिहानमा गाडिन्छ ।
भोटे जातिको परम्पराअनुसार: हिमाली भेगमा बसोबास गर्ने भोटे जातिका मानिस मर्दा आन्तिम संस्कारका लागि लामा बोलाइन्छ । लामाले साइत हेरी लासलाई टुक्रा परेर गिद्ध र चिललाई खुवाउने प्रचलन छ ।
सुरेल जाति: दोलखाको तामाकोसी नदीको किनारमा बसोबास गर्ने सुरेल जातका मानिसको मृत्यु हुँदा लासलाई पिँडीको दायाँपट्टि राखी जलाउने गरिन्छ । जलाउनुअघि लासलाई नुहाइदिन्छन् र नयाँ लुगा लगाएर चितामा राखिदिन्छन् । चिता बनाउँदा मृतकको उमेरको आधारमा दाउराको सङ्ख्या राखिन्छ ।
लेप्चा जातिअनुसार: पूर्वी नेपालको इलाममा बसोवास गर्ने लेप्चा समाजका मानिसको मृत्यु भएपछि घरको ढोकाबाट लासलाई बाहिर निकालिँदैन । अर्कै ठाउँमा भित्ता फोडेर लासलाई बाहिर निकालिन्छ अनि गाउँले र आफन्त मिलेर लासलाई अग्लो पाखामा लगेर गाड्छन् ।
यसै गरी नेपालका अन्य जात तथा विभिन्न समुदायमा आआफ्नै परम्पराअनुसार संस्कार गर्ने गरिन्छ । एउटै मातृभूमिका हामी एकै नेपाली भए पनि हाम्रो जात फरक छ, हाम्रो कर्म फरक छ, हाम्रो परम्परा फरक छ । अन्तत: सबै नेपालीको उति नै महत्त्व छ, चाहे त्यो बाहुन होस् , नेवार होस् वा सुरेल होस् । हामी सबै नेपाली हौँ र हामीले सबैले सबैकाे संस्कृतिकाे सम्मान गर्नुपर्छ ।
Patriotism means to love one’s country, people, and to defend it. The land where we are born is dearer than the life of ours. It is rightly said, ”Motherland and mother are greater than heaven”. A mother brings us into the world and motherland rears us. So, it is greater than in our lives. It is a noble deal of our to be patriot that fills our hearts with pride.
The achievement of a country's glory inspires us. Whenever we see our national flag hoasted our head is held high and we feel proud, we cheer, and if it bows we lose our country and become ready to defend our country at any cost. To safeguard national pride, we don't even hesitate to sacrifice our lives. We are proud of Amar Singh Thapa, Dharmabhakta, and Balbhadra, who sacrificed their lives for national independence and unification.
A true patriot always thinks for the betterment of his country and people. He keeps national interest above his personal one but a false patriot looks towards his personal interest. But, on the other hand, a true patriot has a selfless character. He is the true son of a nation. Patriotism is to love one’s country but it doesn’t mean to hate the rest of the world. It is the age of international brotherhood. We are living together in an international family. We have to think about the welfare of mankind.
Finally, patriotism in a true and broad sense is indeed marvelous. As a result of the sacrifices of patriots, a country can develop in no time and become self-sustained. We can make the life of all people happy and we can preserve our pride by way of true patriotic feelings.
भ्रष्टाचार शब्द दुई शब्द ‘भ्रष्ट’ र ‘आचार’ को सन्धि हो, जहाँ ‘भ्रष्ट’ भन्नाले खराब र ‘आचार’ भन्नाले आचरण हो । तसर्थ भ्रष्टचारलाई खराब/पतित आचरण र दूषित मर्यादा पनि भन्न सकिन्छ । कुनैपनि नियम वा मर्यादाविरुद्ध आफ्नो नैतिकता पतन हुने गरी घुसखोरीको काम गर्नुलाई नै भ्रष्टाचार भन्न सकिन्छ । आफ्नो नैतिकतालाई बेचेर खराब व्यवहार देखाउनुलाई भ्रष्ट हुनु भनिन्छ । कानुनी रूपमा भ्रष्टाचार भनेको आर्थिक लेनदेन हो, जसमा मानिसले आफूलाई फाइदा हुने गरी काम गर्छ र जसले गर्दा देश खोक्रो हुँदै जान्छ । त्यसैले भ्रष्टाचार गर्नु एक जघन्य अपराध हो ।
नेपालमा भ्रष्टाचारको इतिहास हेर्ने हो भने यो निकै लामो छ । वीर शमशेरको पालादेखि निकै व्यापक रूपमा फैलिएको भ्रष्टाचार हालसम्म आइपुग्दा नेपालमा यसले जरो गाडेर बसेको छ । यो त एक सरुवा रोगजस्तै चारैतिर फैलिएको पाइन्छ । सरकारी निकायदेखि लिएर निजी तथा सार्वजनिक संस्थाहरूमा पनि भ्रष्टाचार हुने गरेको हामीले समाचारमा छ्यापछ्याप्ती सुन्ने गरेका छौं । यसको सबैभन्दा गम्भीर असर राष्ट्रको विकास निर्माणमा परेको छ । अझ भन्ने हो भने यसको बेफाइदा त गरिब र कमजोर वर्ग समुदायमा परेको देखिन्छ । भ्रष्टाचारकै कारण देश गरिब र देशवासी धनी बन्दै गएका छन् । विकास निर्माणको काममा अवरोध उत्पन्न भएको कारण हाम्रो मुलुकले निकास पाउन सकेको छैन । अहिले त आर्थिक लेनदेन नभई सानोतिनो काम पनि नहुने भइसकेको छ । भ्रष्टाचारले राष्ट्रिय अस्मितालाई नै धरापमा पारेको छ ।
भ्रष्टाचार रोकथाम गर्ने विभिन्न ऐन तथा संस्था जस्तै ‘भ्रष्टाचार निवारण ऐन’, ‘अख्तियार दुरुपयोग अनुसन्धान आयोग’ आदिको व्यवस्था भए तापनि कुनै प्रकारको उपलब्धि भएको देखिँदैन । भ्रष्टाचार नियन्त्रण गर्न यस्ता प्रयासले नपुगेको कारणले हामी सम्पूर्ण नागरिकले एकजुट भई यससम्बन्धी आवाज उठाउनु अत्यावश्यक भएको छ । विभिन्न सरकारी संस्थाले भ्रस्टाचार रोकथामका लागि आफ्नो योगदान पुर्याइरहेको भए तापनि सबै नागरिक सचेत नभएका कारण अहिले पनि भ्रष्टाचार देशको हरेक कुनामा छ्यापछ्याप्ती भएको हामीले देख्न सक्छौँ । यसको रोकथामका लागि हरेक नागरिकले आफ्नो तर्फबाट योगदान दिनु अति आवश्यक छ ।
विभिन्न समाचारअनुसार हामीले व्यापक भ्रष्टाचार हुने राजनीतिक सत्तामा भएका मानिसहरूबाट हो भन्ने सुन्छौँ । यसको मूल कारण भनेको राजनीतिक सत्तामा भएका मानिसले राजनीतिलाई समाजसेवा नठानेर पेसाका रूपमा मानेका छन्, जसले गर्दा सबै सत्तामा पुगेका मानिसहरू मौका यही हो भन्दै भ्रष्टाचार गर्न थाल्छन् र यसले गर्दा उनीहरू त धनी हुन्छन् तर यसका कारण देशचाहिँ खोक्रो बन्दै जान्छ । साथै सरकारी कर्मचारीहरू पनि भनेको जस्तो तलब नभएका कारण भ्रष्टाचार गर्न पुग्छन् र जागिर खाएको दुई - तीन वर्षमै ठुला ठुला घर बनाउँछन् । भ्रष्टाचार बढ्नुको मुख्य कारण भनेको पनि समाजले यस्ता चिजलाई अझ बढावा दिनु हो । उनीहरूले धनी मानिसहरूलाई महत्त्व दिन्छन्, जसका कारण भ्रष्टाचारीहरू अझ उत्प्रेरित भई यस्ता कामलाई निरन्तरता दिन्छन् ।
अत: भ्रष्टाचार कुनैपनि देशको एक घातक रोग हो । यसलाई रोकथाम गर्नु अति आवश्यक छ । यसकारण सरकारी कर्मचारीहरूलाई खान लाउन पुग्ने तलबको व्यवस्था हुनुपर्छ जसले गर्दा उनीहरू भ्रष्टाचारजस्तो जघन्य अपराध गर्न बाध्य हुँदैनन् । साथै राजनीतिक सत्तामा पुग्ने मानिसहरूले आफ्नै पेसा, व्यवसाय खोलेर आफ्नो जीविकोपार्जन त्यहाँबाट गर्ने र राजनीतिलाई समाजसेवाका रूपमा लिने हो भने भ्रष्टाचार निकै हदसम्म घट्छ । अन्त्यमा हामी सबै नागरिकले भौतिक सुखसुविधाभन्दा पनि मनको शान्तिलाई बुझेर जीविकोपार्जन गर्न पुग्ने धन मात्र आर्जन गर्ने हो भने भ्रष्टाचारलगायत अन्य विभिन्न अपराधहरू पनि आफैँ घट्दै जान्छन् ।
