Brain or Drain the Brain

The most complex structure of human body is human brian.Its very unique part of of human body as it has ability to think, imagine, control and speech. It controls body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate and breathing. It accepts a flood of information about the world around you from your various senses. It handles physical motion when walking, talking, standing or sitting. It lets you think, dream, reason and experience emotions.

The average human brain weighs about three pounds and comprises the hefty cerebrum, which is the largest portion and performs all higher cognitive functions; the cerebellum, responsible for motor functions, such as the coordination of movement and balance; and the brain stem, dedicated to involuntary functions like breathing. The majority of the energy consumed by the brain powers the rapid firing of millions of neurons communicating with each other.

All of these tasks are coordinated, controlled and regulated by an organ that is about the size of a small head of cauliflower! Your brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves make up a complex, integrated information-processing and control system. The scientific study of the brain and nervous system is called neuroscience or neurobiology. I think I have given you enough information about the brain in the terms of science especially human anatomy………

Adding to that mystery is the contention that humans "only" employ 10 percent of their brain. If only regular folk could tap that other 90 percent, they too could become servants who remember π to the twenty-thousandth decimal place or perhaps even have telekinetic powers. Yet the are many humans who are calculators and are able to make calculation in air. Ufffffffffffff I have given you enough aren’t you tired of this ………All I am here to tell you that there is no scientific myth explaining that 10% of your brain is used so please use more of it.

The 10% myth mostly is misrepresentation of neurological research undertaken in the late 1800s or early 1900s when researchers either discovered that only about 10% of the neurons in the brain are firing at any given time, or announced that they had only mapped the functions of 10% of the brain at that time. There is not a direct relationship between the performance of the brain and its level of activation. So let’s leave the myth and think more to use your brain. If 90% of your brain would have been use d you would have left with the thinking power of sheep. (Dr.Chudler PhD Research Officer &Professor at university of Washington).According to him 100% brain is at the function based on how much blood is directed there. We are not sheeps we are human better capable .We can be distinguished if we use more of it. Let the “the men behind the machines not the machines behind the men” this can be done if we only DRAIN THE BRAIN………

SUCCESS !!

Winning Attitude of a Positive Self Image.
What is success?

If this question were asked to a group of people, each one would reply differently. To some, success to some success is money; to some it is health or t some, success is nothing else than achieving goals and targets. Where as, for a large no of peoples, happiness is success. In short it is something that has varied meaning from person to person. And interestingly, success within a person does not stay same for long. It keeps changing by the passage of time. Success for a person ten years back can be no more success for him now. Now the question arises if change is guarantees success, then what is the change we are talking? It is the change in opinion we have in
ourselves. It is called “self image”. Someone said I am beautiful, “WHAT U SEE ARE WHAT YOU GET AND WHAT YOU FEEL IS REALLY WHAT YOU ARE. It are not what you are that holds you back, but it is what you are not!!!” Self image is the fundamental key to understanding human nature. Change the self image, and everything changes: the behavior, the personality and all the parameters. If this change is positive, it brings prosperity. If this change is negative, it reins the personality… If we start building up self image right from the childhood...It is most common to hear that:
 I have a terrible memory
 I am too slow
 I am not a good cook
 I am never on time
 I am a loser etc

These are all perceptions about one that come the sub-conscious mind and are controlled by the mental picture that each one of us carries. Our self-image determines the kind and scope of the person we are. Our achievements are governed by our self-image.to subconscious mind, our imagination is our worked. Every success has to be dreamed first. It becomes the reality later. This is because the subconscious mind plays a vital role in pushing a dream to become a reality as it cannot differentiate between reality and fantasy. To be successful, the first and the most important thing are to require “The Winning Attitude” which only comes from the positive self image. Positive self image is the base to become a winner. So if a person possesses a positive self-Image and a winning attitude, he/she can climb even the highest mountain single handily…..

OBSESSION OF PERFECTION

Perfection in life is very important. It can be only done when we learn our responsibilities and how we pursue toward them. Perfection may lead us to an ideal life if we take it in right pattern. Studies of various Anthropologists show us that civilizations of past that have excelled had some perfection in their natures which lead them to grow. So perfection does involve meaning in our lives but we should not take it as matter of life and death. Obsession of perfection is wrong

I have seen people arranged their lives in a perfect cycle and if anything alters in their life or that cycle they frustrated. We should therefore open our selves to changes because our life goes through them all the time. This is what I believe…… It’s actually good if we stick ourselves to rules but going all the time for 99% right and thinking about 1% makes wrong will lead us to problems. Firstly you’ll not be able to concentrate on what you are doing as that 1% is always running at the back of your mind. We are always taught by our parents and teachers that we should be perfect in very thing. They say this because they anticipate good results from us and their duty as they are responsible for our futures. I am not asking you to stop yourself from being ambitious but be normal and trust yourself. People have become IMPERFECT in order to become PERFECT.

Another problem with people taking perfection too much seriously that they think very high of themselves. One thing should be kept in mind as by the law of nature we are created equal by Almighty ALLAH. The people around us are just like us normal human beings. Mistakes are made and each time we make one we learn from it .Its is yet another step toward progress. We should take things positively and should not make blunders out of small mistakes in order to attain perfection. Man since its creation is striving itself for the perfection. It increases its wants, desires and in order to fulfil his achievements of perfection he forgets the difference between “sins” and “rights”. These ideas which are embedded in our brains should be uprooted. We should be contented with what we have. Instead of” BEAUTY “Perfection is in the eye of the beholder and should be taken, not with what everyone else believes are perfect, but with what you see as the perfect you.

REFRAIN FROM WASTING FOOD

Food is the basic necessity of life. It is prerequisite and essential for all living things .With the blessing of ALLAH PAK it is present in huge quantities including all the types of food ranging from meat,poultry, fish, vegetables and fruits. The basic function of food is enabling our body to function normally. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.S.) recommended even for pious man the quantity of food "whichis just sufficient to keep his back-bone erect". With the saying of Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.S.) we come to know the concept of Balanced Diet which is very important. Only balanced diets consists all sort of the nutrients. As human being it’s our duty not to waste food. As our new generations will depend on it. In year 2020 the worlds’ population is likely to reach about 7.6 billion. Ifcritically we analyze it that means the amount of food we are using will not be sufficient by than. Due to this increase obviouslyurbanization will take place wiping out a lot of agricultural area.

This would greatly affect the food system of the world. Special attention should be laid on it. At present many third world countries are facing the problem of food regulations and consumption issues and food quality which should be given as foremost importance but least here.Nature has bestowed us with variety of blessings it’s upon us how we consume it. Food as the basic necessity should be an item which should be in reach of all citizens. It should be organized in such a manner by our government that it is with in reach of all rich and poor. Being Muslims we are the pioneers of equality same should prevail here as we have seen poor children and people scanning the dust bins and garbage for the bits of food. It’s a pity that we have five our more food items on our dinning table and yet we are not happy. We should refrain from wasting food. It should be consumed as per requirement. Islamic perspective of diet is the most simple and healthy as it said in QURAN-E-PAK "O you people! Eat of what is on earth lawful and good!" (2:168) "So eat of (meats), on which Allah's name hath been pronounced if yehave faith in his signs." (6:118) If we obey it we’ll lead a simple, energetic and healthy life. Allah has bestowed us with his blessings in unlimited pattern and but keeping the fact in mind we are answerable for our doings. So we should refrain ourselves from wasting food. We have seen in the functions even in the formal dinings the food of all variety is wasted. If we give ourselves a moment and think they are so many people hungry out there with literally no food. Eat only the food in the required quantity seeing food in a lot of variety makes us greedy and we eat more than our hunger. This again causes problems so we should only “eat to live” not “live to eat”.

THE FALL OF THE MUSLIM EMPIRE

Muslims of the world have been falling apart .We have always been thinking for the reasons for ages as we have been the pioneers of all the glories of the world including all the spheres of knowledge. Civilization rise and decay and Empire rise and fall, but the only setback is carried on the generations which fall apart due to these all circumstances. Off springs of the new generation suffer due to this as they have to go through all the wrong doings of their elders. The heritage and the cultural aspects in them lacks through it. The whole problem is with the new generation which suffers as they don’t have anything to secure their future with. The cultural heritage and the strong background of a nation bring forwards goodwill for their youth at least they have something to flourish with in future.
We Muslims have been one of the strongest nations of the world yet we can still be if we just peep in to our splendid past and see what we were then, and have critical analysis where we stand now. We had colorful culture and heritage. We were respected for our duty binding personalities, sincerity, truthfulness, honesty, dedication and hard work for our each obligation. We were the pioneers of the knowledge leading from science to arts and humanities. Muslims laid the foundations what we call the educational system nowadays. We formulated Law system based on Islamic values. Our heritage treasures the golden rules through which we can live glorious and contended life.
We have fallen apart because we have forgotten what we were. We have lost our place as a reputed nation all over the world and got the label of terrorists of fundamentalists. We get these false labels because we portraying ourselves in such a manner that people of the world are bound to call us as such. We are living the way we are but a greater setback will be for our new generations they’ll suffer because their foundation is not strong.
We being Muslims should change ourselves because it’s never too late. We still have something which many nations don’t have. We have the strength to breakthrough if we just believe in ourselves. We are bestowed by Allah Pak with the Quran Pak and Sunnah of HARZRAT MUHAMMAD (P.B.U.H) if we follow it whole heartedly we’ll never astray.
We should wake up from inside try to change ourselves and make our personalities less controversial. Changes rise and fall are part and the development of nation but people grow positive attitude through this. They put an effort and make their nation stronger then ever. It’s a message for the Muslims please make yourself united and strong as we have the capability to win this world. We have the capability to lead the world if we not stop under estimating ourselves. Let’s prove the world that we are still the same and we can do it.
