I'm completely satisfied even with the current situation and build performances of Windows 10. I have started using Windows phone since November 2013 and have experienced Windows phone 8 and 8.1 versions, and in this year with 10 preview builds. Great improvement by Microsoft. I sincerely wish that Microsoft pushes well all the app publishers to make this platform a grand success not just from the robust OS point of view, but also from the apps point of view. At the end, a triangular competition is better than a bipolar competition. Good for the companies and better for the customers! And I say this after using Lumia phones and earlier Blackberrys and Nokias in my past 10 years. I have used Lumia 625, Lumia 535, Lumia 435, Lumia 635 and Lumia 640 XL. I have sold 535 and 435 and 625 to buy 635 and 640 XL. :-) More of my experiences and mindset as to why I love the Windows10 and in general the Windows Phones from Micrsosoft with Nokia DNA, in the following article: Windo...

I happened to watch a video of Tony Robbins on Youtube in which he was explaining a seemingly simple but great concept. It was some sort of eye opener to many of us.

These are 4 things here and we need to understand how each of these things depends on the other and influences another.

Sometimes it is said that the world has become small and with technology you can contact anyone anytime. At least in theory that is true. Particularly within your family it is true if you use social networking apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, Hangouts, Viber, Skype, or BBM, etc you have a lot of possibilities to be in touch with your near and dear. While you may use different apps for different groups of contacts - perhaps WhatsApp for friends, BBM for office colleagues, Hangouts or Skype or Viber for family - there will be times when despite all your technology you fail to reach some people at the right time. Because all that depends on the device in your hands and the devices in the hands of your people. One bad signal from the mobile network coverage puts a person out of reach. Then there are battery issues of the gadgets, weak WiFi reach, etc.

Knowing things is different from doing things. I have known the importance of mediation and had been doing meditation occasionally in the past years. This year, I made up my mind to make this my one of the most important resolutions. This shall be listed in my daily journal under my commitments on my timeline. This is a habitual goal I need to achieve.
