Leave your gadgets, go sleep its midnight!

The new progress in the field of technology has taken our pleasant sleep away. If you are like many of  those who find it very hard to stop checking updates on their phones, late at night and try to fell asleep. Then you too are a victim of modern technology's side effects.

Waking up all night has become a very general habit over time, and technology plays a huge roll in encouraging that. We are so deeply submerged in the ocean of this modern techno world, that sometimes we even forget that our mind and body needs rest (sleep) to work properly.

Well, the experts call this 'bedtime procrastination'. When you are trying hard to sleep but your mind keep processing stuff, and you can't manage to even take a nap. I face this problem regularly, and people call me a 'night owl'. It's true that sometimes I don't go to bed at night because I got some work to be done, but it's also true that sometimes when I don't have any work I still find myself awake all night. This is a problem which i'm unable to solve.

Anyway, today I was reading an article about bedtime procrastination in which they suggested these tips...

• Finish eating two to three hours before going to bed.
• Avoid caffeine and alcohol before you hit the pillow.
• Take a hot bath or listen to soothing music an hour before sleep time.
• Sleep in an area that is dark, comfy, quite and cool.
• Use your bedroom only for sleeping. Gadgets should be out of that room.

These are the tricks they have suggested. Now i'm going to try them and lets see if anything works well or again i find myself checking updates on my laptop... You try this too!

First post with the MacBook Pro...

Hah! After a very long time I am taking part in any blogging event, due to the damage of my desktop I was unable to take part in anything online. So I was looking for a laptop from a long time. I searched for many brands but nothing caught my eye personally and finally I chose the one big brand Apple. Yah, I brought an Apple Macbook Pro. So now I can do all this freaking things that I was missing from past few months.

And here is my first post for Write Tribe's 100 words on Saturday...

Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.
― Louis L’Amour
.....

This is a very true saying by Louis l'Amour. Mostly people get stuck at the moment they sit for writing, because they can't find any topic to write on...

Here is the trick you just got to start writing. I mean anything that comes to your mind. Whether it is about what you have done today or a close memory that you remember. or just start writing about how you are stuck and can't find a topic.

Whatever it is, just start writing, and when you do that hundreds of new ideas will start coming to your brain, and you will find yourself in a situation like 'oh I can write on this' and 'oh I can write on that'. You just got to open the tap and let the water flow.

An Inspiration : Shahrukh Khan

Today I was watching the Anupam Kher’s show, whose name is also ‘The Anupam Kher Show…. Kuch Bhi Ho Sakta Hai’. It’s a chat show. Well, there are lots of chat shows in this Bollywood industry. But I found it very special because it’s not a gossip show in which you try to reveal the current status or secrets of a star. It is one of its kind. It’s very gentle. In this show they try to understand what the actor have been throw this journey. And how he/she became what he/she is today. It is about the backdrops and uplifts they faced. And what motivated them to keep going.

Well, today Shahrukh Khan came on the show. Actually the show comes in two episodes, one, every Sunday. So today was the second Sunday and the final part came up. It was so inspirational to see Shahrukh speaking his heart out.

He tells about many of his life incidents and experiences. That how his father motivated him and how he and his wife Gouri met each other. He playfully said that, it’s obvious for every creative person to be up all night.  He also tells about his emotional side that, how sensitive he is. He explains that, he never knew, what he wants to become in life or probably wants to be a filmmaker but never thought about being an actor. And his father always says that “jo kuch nahi karte, wo kamal karte hain” which means ‘the people, who do nothing, do a miracle’.

So, finally they prove the fact that never underestimate yourself because ‘Life Main Kuch Bhi Ho Sakta Hai’ which means ‘Anything Can Happen In Life’.
