And I was desperate to have a part in it.”

When asked about his plans after the success of such a huge franchise as it had grown, he didn’t have to say much. He was already a showrunner in the daily dark comedy series Nurse Jackie. He plays the enigmatic Dr.Fitch Cooper.

Plans For Now

When asked for his plans after both the show he had some impactful advice to share. “When you’re working for two jobs at once, you tend to miss out on the more important things in life. I loved working two jobs, the travelling and everything. But on the other hand, my children were growing up before me and I was missing out on their childhood. So I decided to take closer to home roles and live in the moment.” Facinelli now lives with his family and just recently proposed to his long-time girlfriend Lily Anne Harrison on a trip to New Mexico. We wish the couple a happy married life!!

Lessons learned in 2020

2020 has been hard lately and is continuing its vogue to make our life more miserable. It is an unexpected year which has put our daily lifestyle to a halt. Just like a coin has two faces, similarly, every situation has something good and something bad hidden in it. It may not be visible to us in the first place but will soon make us realize why something happened to us. Similarly, this pandemic is a blessing in disguise (agree or not). It has taught us so many lifelong lessons that are going to stay with us for the rest of our lives. We surely are never going to forget this year. 

Never take life for granted

Everyone find it so easy to accuse life and its methods every time that we end up feeling disgusting for having it and pity for ourselves. But 2020 taught us that being alive is the most precious gift given to us by God. You are blessed if you are still alive and reading this in 2020. Miracles can happen any time and life can present you to them in an unpredictable way.

You have all the power within you

We had enormous time to spend with ourselves during lockdown which made us contemplate deeper and introspect and become a higher version of ourselves. It made us believe that we have all the power within ourselves which is required to triumph everything. Meditation does help you out in finding yourself and your purpose.

Lessons learned in 2020

Family is your permanent

This pandemic surely made us realize one thing that family is our permanent supporter. We lost so many bonds during this time which we thought would be forever. But in the meantime, when no one cared for you, your family had been there in the most unexpected manner whether it is taking care of your health whiling deteriorating their own or giving you the best facilities they can afford or just be around you if you feel lonely inside. We realized that spending time with the family is the real investment in our life. Love your family and the universe will fall in love with you.

Friends are gonna come and go but family is forever”.

Never forget your passion

Another profound benefit of solidarity is that you find out what you want and what has your heart. If you have already found what keeps you exiting, then never forget it. We might lose our jobs, but we must never lose our passion. So, hold onto it no matter what it costs you.

And for those who are still exploring themselves, don’t give up. You are living the best days of your life. Just hang it there. The world needs you.

You must have patience

Patience is the key to success. For you to achieve something, endeavor to have the patience for everything. It is a calm and peaceful mind that will help you remain focused on your goals and yourself. Even if things seem a little tough or going the other way, have patience and this pandemic taught all of us to have enormous patience.

Lessons learned in 2020

Grow every day

One prudent advice that this year came up with is that the real goal must be to become better every day. The secret lies in comparing yourself with your yesterday version and not with someone else, so commit to being better each day. Invest in yourself. Take control of your actions and try breaking the negative habit cycle.

Nature is the best healer

Whenever we feel alone and found no one to lend us an ear, we went to nature to listen to our rants and soothe us. But this time, we not only realize that nature is the best healer but also that it is the most powerful amongst us. We can not mess with nature and its creatures. We can not just rule over it as per our choices. We must adore nature.

Lessons learned in 2020

Positivity is the key

Demotivation, low strength, overthinking, negativity, etc. has been buzzing around us since the lockdown was announced and these feelings have done no good to us. What made us change into our higher selves is positivity. Staying positive has a huge impact on our mental health as well as physical health. Look at the situation with a positive perspective and things will change.

Love yourself

Loving someone else and sometimes breaking your heart is easy. The toughest and the easiest work lies behind loving yourself. Whether you are a teenager, adult, or old; or whether you are single or with someone, you must never forget to take care of yourself and love yourself unconditionally.

Loving yourself can have many definitions. Choose your definition to define you.

You can survive without junk food

Living in this era where food poses before being eaten by people is a transparent picture of where the world is heading into. We have been so addicted to outside binge eating junk foods that healthy foods lost their meaning. But when we did not have access to them for the last 6 months, it made us realize that we can surely survive without eating junk and that eating healthy food is a necessity which is demanded by this virus as well.

Lessons learned in 2020

Health is the real wealth

People used to take our health for granted. We thought not sleeping well, not exercising, and not eating healthy will not harm us. As this virus took over our life, we learned that there is nothing more important than our health. We must take care of our health by adopting a positive and healthy lifestyle.

No matter whatever situation encounters you, family, or even the world. Never forget to believe in yourself and God.

Maybe, it hasn’t been our day, our week our month, or even our year but we will be there for each other.

Till then, stay safe and stay joyful!

Shopping Tips

Shopping is an action wherein a client buy the accessible merchandise. A typology of customer types has been created by researchers. That is, the individuals who appreciate shopping and view it as a relaxation action. These Shopping tips may helps you to make a perfect shopping habit. This Shopping Tips article will be more helpful for those who forget to buy something almost every time. Because they didn’t have follow some proper rules of shopping.

INDIA IS a customer’s heaven. There is a bewildering assortment of astonishing garments, shoes, gems, flavors, and Indian trinkets to purchase in India. This extreme guide will give you a total review of the best things to get in India as a vacationer. It remembering what to purchase for Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Rajasthan, Goa, Kerala, Rishikesh, and Varanasi. The whole nation is fundamentally an Indian shop!

One of my preferred side interests is shopping in India and particularly purchasing garments in India. You can’t beat the blend India offers: a fantastic assortment of dazzling things, regularly hand-made, at temptingly low costs. I especially love Indian apparel stores (and even online stores) and to purchase Indian trinkets. The nation produces both customary and present day merchandise, and in some cases a convincing blends of both.

1. Do shopping with list:

This is my main shopping tip in light of current circumstances. Many people purchase things they don’t need, and never wind up utilizing on the grounds that they haven’t arranged appropriately. This is your valuable money and time you are spending – it merits a 2 minutes of readiness, wouldn’t you say? Sure it is (and recalls that, you’re justified, despite all the trouble!).

In this way, before you set off on your shopping trip, get ready. Audit what you as of now have in your storage room, pantries and the which things require. Ensure they are certifiable necessities – not unimportant needs (there’s a major distinction between the two). Lastly, make sure to utilize that rundown when you shop! That rundown will be nothing but bad scrumpled up on the base of your pack or stuck into your pocket. Use it and just purchase things that are on that list!

2. Set a budget:

Indeed, gracious yes – the “b” word budget this is significant. It is one of the important shopping tip. Not a savvy approach to shop. You have to set a rough approximation about how much spend on this shopping trip.

Also, one approach to do that is to ensure you don’t accepting beyond what you can manage. Set your spending plan – and like the rundown – stick to it! Whatever your financial plan – $50 or $500 or $5000 – quit shopping once you hit that limit.

3. Do some exploration:

You know what number of things you have to purchase, great. Presently, do some examination on the brands you had as a main priority. Is it accurate to say that they are moral, paying a living compensation, have great working conditions? What materials do they use? Can these be reused? Is it true that they are utilizing creature inferred materials? How does that cause you to feel?

Give a valiant effort, with what you have, and what’s accessible. Yet become familiar with design brands and what they’re doing. It will totally change your point of view. In case you’re purchasing on the web, you can contact the retailer to ask about to ensure you don’t need to return. Please try to follow these shopping tips.

4. Shop alone:

Numerous individuals find that shopping accomplices are progressively much the same as assistants in wrongdoing! Maybe they feel some feeling of rivalry, or they need to live vicariously through us and our buys. Whatever is continuing for the other individual, what they don’t need to live with are the outcomes of your shopping. Just you need to live with that. By chance that you need to go out on the town to shop as a social movement, that is alright. However make it a simply social action with no buying permitted.

5. be careful with the deal:

We love deals. Who doesn’t?! Be that as it may, the issue is that we as a whole get “deal cerebrum.” You realize that, isn’t that so? Deal mind is the point at which you consider purchasing something that you never would ordinarily consider, in light of the fact that it’s on special. Presently, that is fine if the sticker price is the thing that typically kept you under control.

In any case, if it’s shading you don’t regularly wear or a style that isn’t exactly you, or perhaps you figure it will fit you when you shed those 10 pounds … simply state no. A deal thing that you’ll never wear—or just wear once—is never justified, despite all the trouble. That is not setting aside cash, it’s inefficient. As a general guideline, in the event that you wouldn’t ache for it at the maximum, don’t get it marked down. That goes for Target buys, as well.

6. Check price tag:

We are very much excited about shopping specially women’s, they just love shopping. But they just forget to check price tag before purchasing anything because at the time of billing you get problem like shortage of money or anything. Or there is a possibility of false prices which are written by shopkeeper for their profit. And you may become a victim of malfunction that’s why you must check price tag before picking up anything or at the time of billing.

7. Don’t forget to take cash receipt:

After completing our shopping we are very much excited about what we buy, but don’t go in that flow please don’t forget to take cash receipt or bill after paying. It is a one type of proof with you about what you purchase. If in case you want to change or return something shopkeeper ask about bill or cash memo for confirmation, so whenever you want to go to return something please take copy of bill with you.  

Regardless of how well disposed or charming a sales rep is, here is the reality you can’t evade: they’re in it for the deal. Truly, they may mind that you exit just with things that suit you and that you will utilize. Be that as it may, they need you to exit with something. That is the thing that they are there for – to sell you something, or to keep up a relationship with you whereby you hold returning. That is their business.

Sales reps, regardless of how beguiling and supportive they are, aren’t there to be our companions. They may take part in neighborly practices, however their motivation is solitary: to sell us something. Today. Be aware of this with the goal that you just purchase things you need and will utilize – not on the grounds that a powerful sales rep talked (or coerced) you into it.

Start by educating yourself on recovery and addition; this way, you’ll have a more thorough understanding of what it’s like to be in their shoes and what to expect before, during, and after treatment. The more you understand, the better you’ll be able to empathize with them and put yourself in their shoes, which can in turn allow you to put your guard down a bit.

Create a Stress-Free Environment

Many addicts turn to their addictive habits as a coping mechanism, and to curtail some of the stress that they’re experiencing. If the atmosphere between you and your loved one is stressful, it will only make the situation worse. Think about the different ways you can establish trust between you and them.

Start by realizing that your insistence on helping them might make them feel as though they’re being controlled. Constant pressure can cause them to shrink in the other direction. But this doesn’t mean that you should have to deal with their unwanted behavior; take a step back and let them know that you’re both in this together.

Remind them that you just want to talk, and won’t force or pressure them into anything. Ask questions and allow them to ask you questions as well. Avoid getting defence, criticizing, or blaming, which could end up making things far worse.

Actively Participate in Their Recovery

One of the most proactive ways you can help your loved one is by actively participating in their recovery. There are many ways to do this. First and foremost, think about the help you need, too. For instance, it’s not uncommon for an individual dealing with their partner’s addiction to adopt the “if you can’t beat them, join them” mentality. Perhaps you’ve also dabbled in their drug of choice from time to time, and maybe even lean towards it to deal with your loved one’s addiction. In this case, suggest signing up for sober living for couples, where you and your partner can actively work together towards a common goal. For many addicts, the idea of going on this journey alone prevents them from taking the right steps, but by joining them, you can focus on healthier habits as a unit.

Don’t Forget to Focus on Yourself

Chances are the loved one who is battling an addiction is hurting you and others in the process. It can be easy to focus so much on helping them get better that you neglect yourself in the process. Don’t forget to address your needs, too. Being the family member, friend, or partner to someone dealing with addiction is a very stressful experience, and if you can’t get the help you need to take a battle of this magnitude, chances are you won’t be able to help someone else. Speak with a counselor or therapist to help you develop the stress management skills you need to aid yourself on a day to day basis.

Post-Treatment Support

Recovery is a lifelong process. Although rehab is a critical first step on the long path to recovery, it is not a cure-all, and it doesn’t solve all the problems associated with that addiction. Recovery can change a person’s goals and even their personality. In some cases, it may even force the addict to confront underlying issues with their loved ones that may have been masked with their addiction. The sooner that you understand that recovery is forever and that other challenges will need to be addressed post-discovery, the better positioned you’ll be.

Understanding that relationship, financial, and health problems will likely follow treatment, and do your best to plan for them. Make changes to the environment to support their recovery. This includes avoiding or helping them avoid social situations where a relapse might occur, finding new, sober activities that you can enjoy, removing addictive substances from the home, and helping them stay active and busy.

For all the ones listening to these two words altogether must be like, “Is it a full suit or a pair of shorts and a t-shirt?”

It can be confusing and tough to understand since both the words are entirely different! One thinks about a person in his office while talking about business code. On the other hand, one wonders about a homely environment or a get together when talking about casual code.

PROS AND CONS FOR BUSINESS CASUAL

As told, this budding code is expanding more and more because of all its pros! However, there are still some cons that weigh it down. In the following paragraphs, we will be discussing some of them:

Firstly, it provides comfort to all the people who are working! As a result, people are able to work better and in a more productive manner. It creates a homely environment at the work-place and motivates better. In addition, it helps people relax while working and not with discomfort. A very welcoming environment is created because of this dress code. Since, suits all the time, especially when there is excessive heat, create discomfort and can hinder work performances.

Secondly, the most important thing, it encourages is INDIVIDUALITY. Since, it gives a lot of freedom on the outfit, people are able to present themselves the way they are and hence, form an image. People can be more creative in their professional lives with this flexibility provided to them.

In addition, business suits tend to cost more than casual clothing. Hence, in a way, it is economical because you need not have many suits for your work.

However, as discussed, it can really create confusion if the company does not convey the guidelines well. As a result, while meeting clients or in important events, a bad impression can be created because of the attire. Moreover, for the ones who enjoy the simplicity of the strict rules and do not like thinking much for their outfits, can find discomfort in this comfort. Since, formal wear has a lot fewer choice while business casuals have wider choices, it can become a task to decide even one outfit!

CONCLUSION

Basically, business casual is a dress code wherein the traditional norms of formal wear are broken! People get flexibility and freedom to express themselves the way they want. However, from the company side, guidelines should always be conveyed well and from the employee’s side, the guidelines need to be well taken care of. Moreover, one needs to take care of the “business” word in the business casual code and not neglect it.

This code is more common in companies dealing with sales, media and customer services. In addition, the rules varies. So, always keep a good variety of both casuals and formals to form the best business casual attire!

Are You Ready For RESEARCH?

research

No other way is better than explaining these crucial terms, so according to educational universities:

By Cambridge University, research is a detailed study of a subject, especially to discover new information or to understand the subject better.

Whereas the one which I follow is by Australian universities:

Research is defined as the creation of new knowledge and/or the use of existing knowledge in a new and creative way to generate new concepts, methodologies, and understandings. This could include synthesis and analysis of previous research to the extent that it leads to new and creative outcomes. 

Research is considered original when the article that constitutes the data has a perfect report and was conducted by some researcher. A researcher describes their hypothesis or research question and their purpose of study, then in the end the result of the research is reported, but one thing that researchers always discuss or interpret is the result or you can say the possible outcome of it.

What leads to research?

Any idea or notion can lead us to conduct new research. Ideas for research problems and difficulties can arise from a set of sources which could be a theory experience or other research studies. 

In our everyday personal or professional lifestyle, we might experience hundreds of problems for which we all want solutions and hence look for one. So consciously or unconsciously we question ourselves through a series of alternatives that we wanted to be answered.

 To explain it better here is an example:

  • You may prefer a paraben or sulfate-free shampoo and thus wonder if people, in general, prefer the same, to those that have these chemical components in its shampoo. This example is through personal experience.

Theories are also ideas about how one thing relates to others. Theories are factual based information that can lead to, a synthesis of a new theory or hypothesis (something that needs a trial, not been tried or tested).

There are a few ways of displaying these theories.

  • According to Keynes’s theory: “that if there is an increase in National Income, there would be an increase in the level of employment and vice versa…”

Therefore theories might be useful in providing interesting data but it can also open a path for alternative queries, which can lead to further research on these topics. One thing that you can jot down is, the result of all researches and its process gives you knowledge

Now let’s quickly go through the types of methodology that are used while research which will guide us to choose the correct method for our research.

TYPES OF RESEARCH

  1. Inductive research
  2. Deductive research
  3. Descriptive research
  4. Analytical research

Inductive Research

 In an Inductive approach for research, researchers or the research begins with the process of collecting data that is closely connected with the topic of your interest on which you want to research. Gathered data collection then leads to our next step for which you have to take a step back to get an overview of your data accumulated, and analyze it. From that analysis try to find a pattern that is common on every point. Inductive research is done on observation, it basically moves from specific observation to broader generalization theory.

Are You Ready For RESEARCH?
Inductive theory, the picture is taken from the internet

For example: In our school time, we have learned a theory that is “Survival of the fittest” in biology this theory was given by Charles Darwin. According to this theory, the best-adapted organism is selected by nature to pass on their traits to the next generation. Darwin observed this phenomenon through a period how evolution happens in any organism. He observed that in many offspring’s they have a different character or theme than their parents, which leads them to sustain their existence for a long period as they survive all the climatic and environmental changes. So here you see first he collected the whole data on his topic or subject then took an overview of whether this happens in every animal’s case or not. Then he searched for similar patterns of who is fighting against nature to retain their existence and are they succeeding in it. After all this, he made a theory, so it’s a pure form of Inductive research.

Deductive Research

Deductive research is just the opposite of inductive research, here we choose a theory and test it through several implications of data and information and recheck it. It follows the inverted pyramid rule were from broader generalization we come to a more specific level. Sounds confusing right? Let’s look for some examples to make it clear.

For example, suppose 

My friend is Indian. Everyone from India eats spicy food. Therefore, my friend eats spicy food. 

Other then this, deductive research is usually used in criminal investigation. 

Descriptive Research

Descriptive research aims to accurately describe a research problem. Descriptive research is a type of research whose aim is basically to describe the characteristics and category of research.

Descriptive research does not fit in the qualitative or quantitative research type, instead, it uses both to define the research topic. It focuses on answering the what, how, where, and when of your research problem rather than why.

Descriptive research is further divided or classified into different types, to understand its approaches:

  • Descriptive-survey
  • Descriptive-Normative survey
  • Descriptive-status
  • Descriptive-analysis
  • Descriptive-classification
  • Descriptive-comparative

Example: Suppose, you are a wholesaler of saree or clothes, then the aspects that you should focus on first is what are the preferences of women in sarees or clothes? When is the right time to keep a good stock for sale? (like during festivals). These are the questions that descriptive research might answer before answering why to pile up the stocks?

Analytical research 

Analytical research help in analyzing the complex relationship between variables. As we saw in descriptive research that it gives you the answer to what, how, when, and where, the analytical tells you more about why?. Correct statistics and statistical control are very much needed to conduct meaningful Analytical research. This type of research helps you to analyze information or data, that gives a new idea for understanding the situations on why it is happening and helps further to approve or disapprove a hypothesis.

Example: Its example includes exploring why the value of the Japanese Yen has reduced against major world currencies such as the euro U.S. dollar, and British pound. This is because analytical research can better explain how and why the currency has weakened against the major currencies in the world.

 There are a lot more types of research methods, so if you liked and found this article helpful do comment. So that I can write more for you people.
