A FEW TIPS FOR SAVINGS ...

* Don't keep all your savings (money) in savings bank account. More amount in your savings account may motivate you to spend more.

* Invest your savings in term deposits or good savings plans.

* Don't invest merely on the advice of your friends and relatives, but before making any investment have a look at the investment scheme in detail.

* Don't invest all your savings in one scheme only.

* Don't set very high target for savings. Please set your savings target after looking to your family and your needs.

* Don't spend more, because suddenly you have received the money from somewhere.

* Don't purchase unnecessary things.

* Don't take more loans, without carefully looking to your paying capacity.

* Please look at the scheme carefully before making any investment.

* Don't invest in 'Risky Plan'.

* Keep track of maturity date(s) of your term deposits. Most people do not remember deposit plans and their maturity dates.

* Always think how you can make better savings.

Every sector of the economy (such as industry, health, hospitality, education, banking, public services ...) in government as well as in private sector will need professionals in the field of QUALITY. However, there is a need to create awareness amongst students and young people (and also working people) about the career opportunities in the field of QUALITY.

There are growing opportunities to become:

* Quality Professional (such as consultant / advisor)

* QMS Auditor (such as Internal Auditor, Lead Auditor)

* Management Representative

कुछ बातें ......

जब तक हम अपने कुछ अनुभव दूसरों को नहीं बाटेंगें, तब तक हम दूसरों के अनुभव को जानने से वंचित रह जाएगें. हमारे आस-पास ऐसे बहुत व्यक्ति हैं जो बहुत अनुभवी हैं और हम उनके अनुभवों का लाभ ले सकते हैं.

रुपया-पैसा कमाने में ज्यादा ध्यान लगाने से अच्छा है कि अपनी पहचान बनाने में ध्यान लगाया जाए. जब अपनी पहचान बनेगी तो फिर पैसा भी अपने आप आ जाएगा.

जीवन में सफलता के लिए जरूरी है कि मुझे अपनी संप्रेषण-कला को सुधारना होगा. इसके लिए मुझे अंग्रेजी और हिन्दी में अपना लेखन और बोलचाल को सुधारना होगा.

मेरी सच्ची धन-संपत्ति मेरा काम करने का तरीका होगा, जिससे मेरा नाम और पहचान बनेगी.

मुझे वही काम करना चाहिए, जिसमें मेरी रुचि हो.
अपनी पढ़ाई के लिए मुझे विषयों का चयन करते समय इस बात का विशेष ध्यान रखना है कि मेरी रुचि क्या है.
मुझे इस बात से प्रभावित नहीं होना है कि मेरे दोस्तो ने क्या विषय लिए हैं .

सभी की शुभकामनाओं से मुझे सफलता मिलेगी, ऐसा मेरा विश्वास है. धन्यवाद.

See following calculations

Mathematics

(Is the following result correct?)

Let us assume,          a = b

Multiply both sides by a, then we get, a x a = a x b

Now substract b x b from both sides

a x a - b x b = a x b - b x b

Now take factors of both sides

(a - b) x (a + b) = b x (a - b)

Now (a - b) is the common factor, so by dividing both sides by (a - b), we get

(a + b) = b

In the beginning, we had presumed a = b, therefore we can write a in place of b. Hence,

(a + a) = a

or         2 a = a

Dividing both sides by a, you get a funny value,

2 = 1.

Is it so? Can 2 be equal to 1?

No, 2 can not be equal to 1. Is there any mistake in the above calculation? Just advise me by making your comment. It's a fun only...Ha! Ha!

Friends!

2 can not be equal to 1. In the above calculation, the value of (a-b) = 0, so the above exercise is wrong. Hope this will clarify you the above post. All the best.

मैं क्यों परेशान हूँ
औरों की आलोचना सुनकर
जो लगेगा मुझे अच्छा
वही करूंगा जी भरकर

आलोचना तो सिखाती बहुत कुछ है
अरे, नेताओं से कुछ तो सीखें
सीखने को बहुत कुछ है
अभी तो अपनी आलोचना सुनना सीखें

शुभकामनाओं के साथ,

केशव सिंघल
