Creating Your Own Luck




Why? Because today you have a choice. You can choose to live this day on purpose. And when you make that decision, you put yourself in a position to receive everything that today has to offer. You can make today your lucky day. To continually receive good things in life, you must surrender yourself daily to a worthy cause. I believe your luck increases in direct proportion to the extent that you live your life on purpose in a business or cause that is bigger than yourself.
Many people think success is just a matter of chance; that good things in life are flukes.  People say, "They were just in the right place at the right time." Now that part is true. But what most people don't realize is that we create our own luck by preparing ourselves to be in the right place at the right time.

As I always see students r more dependent on luck factor, but believe me it’s the hard work that makes it stronger for you….

Change Your Feelings, Change Your Attitude




It almost goes without saying, but when I'm grumpy I have a bad attitude. What this tells me is that my attitude - which can be fairly easily ascertained by my facial expression and body language
Now it's not any secret that the answer to a bad attitude is a good laugh, a smile, and pleasant thoughts. Why? Because you can't genuinely laugh and smile without a corresponding good feeling. Our feelings have a direct impact on our outward demeanor.
It is very essential in the beginning of student life to have a right attitude.

The challenge is controlling our feelings. Change our feelings, change our attitude. The good news is that we can control our feelings. We're not at the mercy of our emotional life. Emotions serve as a barometer of what's going on inside of us. And we can change what's going on inside.

How? By monitoring our thoughts. Our thoughts affect our feelings which in turn shows up in our attitude. And the best way to monitor our thoughts is by listening to our self-talk. In other words, we need to think about our thinking. This might be a true difference between us and animals. We have the ability to consider our thought process and not just react by instinct And since we can control our thoughts, we have the ability to influence our feelings and thus change our attitude. That is good news indeed.

WEIGHT LOSS: AS YOU SOW, SO SHALL YOU REAP


The drive to lose weight can be your reflection on a rude remark, but many remain apprehensive of attaining their goals. While some manage successfully, other lack commitment and go back and forth on diets, and always buy the latest ‘miracle drug’. However, it takes more than just a diet to lose weight.
“I FEEL THAT FOR COMPLETE WELL- BEING, ONE SHOULD INTEGRATE PHYSICAL, MENTAL AND SPIRITUAL HEALTH”. 
Most people think they are motivated enough to move to a strictly regulated diet, but I find that they fail to put it in practice. No diet or exercise programme has permanent benefits. The good news is that when the diet becomes a part of your daily routine, following it is not a struggle. This results in a heightened sense of well-being.
ACCORDING TO ME “TO BE HEALTHY SHOULD BE THE ULTIMATE GOAL FOR ALL”

Students, Alcohol, and Drugs




Alcohol and drug use among students is a serious problem.
Illegal drugs, underage possession of alcohol, and drunk driving can costs fines and jail time. Fights and injuries are more likely to happen when one has been drinking or doing drugs. Half of campus injuries are alcohol-related. One third of people who die in drunk driving crashes are under 25 years old. It's the leading cause of death for young people.
Many people have stereotypes of what an alcoholic or addict is, and most people don't associate that image with young students. Being young and in college doesn't protect you from addiction. Responsible behavior does.

Fashion craze of students



Fashion is a general term for a currently popular style or practice. Fashion references to anything that is the current trend in look and dress up of a person. Fashion in real meanings is not to wear trendy, expensive and attractive clothes. Fashion is a style, it’s a make, and it’s an appearance. So, what so ever one is wearing must suit him. Fashion is not to wear what others wear. Just the theme is to wear anything that perfectly suits and match the personality of the wearer. Every person is fashion-conscious. It is rather a craze all over the world. Students in Pakistan are very particular about fashion. Everyone, whether boy or girl dresses in the latest fashion . They do it in a competitive spirit to look smart, up-to-date and attractive. Being fashionable is not about blindly following the latest fashion rather it is the modification of latest fashion according to your individuality, personality and your identity as a student. What you wear is a reflection of your inner self. And your dress must be representing the original you with a touch of style and modernity.
When dressing for college, university etc there are many factors to consider. The main factor for many students is staying comfortable while still expressing their own personal style. Student life is stressful, and you’re going to want to be comfortable more often than you’ll want to be stylish
The trends in fashion are an on going process, and those who are keen on being in the most fashionable list definitely have to be alert all the time. Wear, decorate, or utilize what suits you best. Because doesn’t mean all fashion trends suitable for you.

Innovative Methods of Teaching


Teaching must include two major components sending and receiving information. Ultimately, a teacher tries his best to impart knowledge as the way he understood it. So, any communication methods that serve this purpose without destroying the objective could be considered as innovative methods of teaching. The use of innovative methods in educational institutions has the potential not only to improve education, but also to empower people, strengthen governance and galvanize the effort to achieve the human development goal for the country. Education is a light that shows the mankind the right direction to surge. The purpose of education is not just making a student literate but adds rationale thinking, knowledgeablity and self sufficiency. When there is a willingness to change, there is hope for progress in any field. Creativity can be developed and innovation benefits both students and teachers.

“Education is the manifestation of perfection already in man”

Education is a light that shows the mankind the right direction to surge. If education fails to inculcate self-discipline and commitment to achieve in the minds of student, it is not their fault. We have to convert education into a sport and learning process has to generate interest in the students and motivate them to stay back in the institution than to run away from it. Education should become a fun and thrill to them rather than burden and boredom. It is an integral part of their growth and helps them become good citizens. Education is an engine for the growth and progress of any society. It not only imparts knowledge, skills and inculcates values, but is also responsible for building human capital which breeds, drives and sets technological innovation and economic growth. In today’s era, information and knowledge stand out as very important and critical input for growth and survival. Rather than looking at education simply as a means of achieving social upliftment, the society must view education also as an engine of advancement in an information era propelled by its wheels of knowledge and research leading to development.

5 TIPS to Clients for actually making ERP Modules LIVE at Campus


Dear Clients/ERP Managers,


With our experience of last 4 years with IFW College ERP we have felt that no matter how much we and you try(this has nothing to do with how many features the ERP has), till the end module user does not work on the ERP on their respective module “things don’t get LIVE”. 


We are giving you 5 TIPS for actually making all modules of ERP LIVE at your Campus


TIP 1 #
Keep the carrot and stick in hand approach for the module users. Motivate and appreciate the module user who have actually done work on the ERP. They should not feel that they are working on it uselessly and the management is not recognizing them. Also, at the same time give deadlines to the ones who have not either started working in ERP or are lazy and making excuses of their general work pressures and lack of time etc. Its your internal decision how strict you want to be with the defaulters and lazy staff members. Some of our clients have clearly said to the staff “Either get LIVE on the ERP or else find job somewhere else.....”.


TIP 2#
The management has to ask for reports(1 or 2 selected ones) from all the modules on their desk every evening or check themselves daily working on the ERP by their own login. Why will your staff work on the ERP if you still want to see the work in old pattern. You have to reject anything that comes to you without ERP. For Example : Tell your Accounts department to show you the daily collection report from the ERP every day, or tell your HODs to give you daily record of absent students etc. If you check this for just 7 days, we bet your ERP will be LIVE and kicking.


TIP 3#
Give the staff what they need but only on the condition that ERP has to be LIVE. Some departments will need more data entry operators initially.... give them. Some will ask for retraining of modules, tell us we will give them Online ERP training on their live Database any number of times they need, but they have to get LIVE on ERP on each module.


TIP 4#
Recruit only those people in your College from today who can work on an ERP. We are not saying that they should have experience of working on ERP, but they should be willing to work on it from day 1 of their joining at your campus. New recruits can be made comfortable on the ERP by your ERP manager, other staff members and our IFW Team too. Needless to say but its your decision if you still want to keep in your college old staff who either does not know computers or are not ready to learn anything about working on ERP.


TIP 5#
Show your staff that now AICTE has made it essential for all its affiliated colleges to have an ERP with a Parent's Login. So, if something is of so much importance how can you allow anyone in your college ignore it.
