Elections in Pakistan

Editorial on elections in Pakistan

Elections are a vital part of any democracy. It is a process to dilute the power accumulating in few hands. It makes sure that people who are governed are heard in true faith. It enables the people of a state to show their wrath for those who did not govern them well in the preceding years. However, elections in Pakistan do not serve this function well. The prime reason is the interference of military establishment in favouring a certain party over others and creating obstacles in the way of certain other party. This means elections in Pakistan do not reflect their true essence. People are not given free hand to decide their rulers. If politicians were given free chance to fight each other electorally, we could have evolved a better democracy over time. However, nothing has changed.

Freelancing is very easy, and you can be your own boss. You can do whatever, whenever, and wherever. You may have heard these lines very often. In my opinion however, these are flawed lines and are used only to develop interest and have nothing to do with freelancing in reality. Almost all experienced freelancers would suggest you : stick to only one skill set. So that you can focus on your expertise and provide greater value. But I will somehow disagree with them because what they are saying may be quite right, but only for their own level. They rarely understand or speak on beginner’s level.

As a matter of fact, there are many complexities as you start your journey at freelancing as a beginner. Not only you need to be patient, which is said by almost everybody, but also you need to have enough time, enthusiasm and sometimes little i

Creating Drives Drive, though a little word, has many meanings emerging from different senses of use. One of which is to motivate. Here, it is worth mentioning that its meaning to motivate is in the most advanced sense. Which means to motivate oneself to accomplish a desired aim by any means. So, creating drives for oneself to remain focused and keep moving without being stuck in useless things is the best way to achieve success. The first and foremost thing about it is it makes one achieve one’s goal. For example, you feel hungry because of a deficiency of energy and food. This deficiency creates a drive in your body which makes you reduce this by eating. Similar is the case with being thirsty. Have you ever thought about what motivational speakers do? They just give you the idea to create a drive. Because only you can create one for yourself.  So creating drives makes you accomplish your aim.  A second interesting thing about it is you do not feel obsessed with doing much for

The air was cool enough to touch the skin and relax it. the place where they were sitting was a garden. Both were looking cool and comfortable to face the scene.  The day was peaceful, Pen and Pencil were facing each other and the arguments begin as, Pen: You are so unrealistic and overly down to earth. You do whatever people say to you and they manipulate you often. Pencil : People are not perfect and they do make wrong choices and commit mistakes, I am just considerate about them. It is your negative mind that you consider people as deceivers and manipulators, However, I just think that it is self-correction and not manipulation. Pen : Wow!
