Give me 2 minutes and I’ll show you an exercise to help you find your purpose.

The exercise is called Ikigai.

It is said to find your life’s worth or purpose and is widely used.

It has also played a role in Japan having the second highest life expectancy in the world.

Let’s break it down.
Ikigai can be split into 4 categories.

What:

• You love
• You are good at
• You can be paid for
• What the world needs
1. What do you love.

When asked, most people will tell you that they have never stopped to think about this because they live such busy lives.

This could be a hobby you get excited about or possibly the feeling of helping others.

There are no wrong answers.
2. What you are good at.

Take out a pen and paper and jot down everything you feel you are good at doing.

As humans we tend to undervalue what we are good at because we assume that there are others better than us.

Remember done is better than perfect.
3. What you can be paid for.

Look towards others that are currently being paid for what is you want to do.

• How did they get started ?
• Can you make a good living ?
• What troubles have they faced ?

Try to map out how you can turn this from an idea into reality.
4. What the world needs.

The world is changing all of the time. You have countless opportunities to spot gaps in the market.

Based on the simple principle of supply and demand.

You must provide a service that is valuable to those using it.
What you love and what you are good at will help you find.

= Your passion.

What you love and what the world needs.

= Your mission.
What the world needs and what you can be paid for.

= Your vocation.

And finally

What you can be paid for + What you are good at.

= Your profession.
Once you have taken time to brainstorm through each section, you should have an idea of what you can pursue to find your purpose.

Imagine your ideal day from start to finish. How does it make you feel ?
You will need to try out what you think you would be good at.

You may think that you would love to do a certain profession however in reality you may find it’s not for you.

It will take trial and error however following Ikigai should give you a better understanding.
A strong mind builds strong individuals.

Much like a muscle, your mind needs trained to encourage peak performance.

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.


...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.


Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
🌺श्री गरुड़ पुराण - संक्षिप्त वर्णन🌺

हिन्दु धर्म के 18 पुराणों में से एक गरुड़ पुराण का हिन्दु धर्म में बड़ा महत्व है। गरुड़ पुराण में मृत्यु के बाद सद्गती की व्याख्या मिलती है। इस पुराण के अधिष्ठातृ देव भगवान विष्णु हैं, इसलिए ये वैष्णव पुराण है।


गरुड़ पुराण के अनुसार हमारे कर्मों का फल हमें हमारे जीवन-काल में तो मिलता ही है परंतु मृत्यु के बाद भी अच्छे बुरे कार्यों का उनके अनुसार फल मिलता है। इस कारण इस पुराण में निहित ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने के लिए घर के किसी सदस्य की मृत्यु के बाद का समय निर्धारित किया गया है...

..ताकि उस समय हम जीवन-मरण से जुड़े सभी सत्य जान सकें और मृत्यु के कारण बिछडने वाले सदस्य का दुख कम हो सके।
गरुड़ पुराण में विष्णु की भक्ति व अवतारों का विस्तार से उसी प्रकार वर्णन मिलता है जिस प्रकार भगवत पुराण में।आरम्भ में मनु से सृष्टि की उत्पत्ति,ध्रुव चरित्र की कथा मिलती है।


तदुपरांत सुर्य व चंद्र ग्रहों के मंत्र, शिव-पार्वती मंत्र,इन्द्र सम्बंधित मंत्र,सरस्वती मंत्र और नौ शक्तियों के बारे में विस्तार से बताया गया है।
इस पुराण में उन्नीस हज़ार श्लोक बताए जाते हैं और इसे दो भागों में कहा जाता है।
प्रथम भाग में विष्णुभक्ति और पूजा विधियों का उल्लेख है।

मृत्यु के उपरांत गरुड़ पुराण के श्रवण का प्रावधान है ।
पुराण के द्वितीय भाग में 'प्रेतकल्प' का विस्तार से वर्णन और नरकों में जीव के पड़ने का वृत्तांत मिलता है। मरने के बाद मनुष्य की क्या गति होती है, उसका किस प्रकार की योनियों में जन्म होता है, प्रेत योनि से मुक्ति के उपाय...

RT-PCR corona (test) scam

Symptomatic people are tested for one and only one respiratory virus. This means that other acute respiratory infections are reclassified as


2/12

It is tested exquisitely with a hypersensitive non-specific RT-PCR test / Ct >35 (>30 is nonsense, >35 is madness), without considering Ct and clinical context. This means that more acute respiratory infections are reclassified as


3/12

The Drosten RT-PCR test is fabricated in a way that each country and laboratory perform it differently at too high Ct and that the high rate of false positives increases massively due to cross-reaction with other (corona) viruses in the "flu


4/12

Even asymptomatic, previously called healthy, people are tested (en masse) in this way, although there is no epidemiologically relevant asymptomatic transmission. This means that even healthy people are declared as COVID


5/12

Deaths within 28 days after a positive RT-PCR test from whatever cause are designated as deaths WITH COVID. This means that other causes of death are reclassified as
