Q2         Why do the time of sleeping mosquitoesinsist on flying near the 
corner of our ear?

A2         Sangram Sagar, Blogger, Content Writer Jun7

Throughmy battle with a persistent mosquito, I gained valuable insights. 
Firstly, mosquitoes flysilently, only making noise when the light is switched 
off. Their quietmovements make them elusive targets.

My note- Or in dim light 

Secondly,these insects display intelligence, seeking out dark hiding spots. 
Whenever I turned on the lightto locate and eliminate it, the mosquito would 
cleverly perch behind acupboard, avoiding detection.

In the end, I realized that themosquito would fly towards my face when the 
light was off, guided by the carbondioxide I exhaled. Itwould then purposefully 
generate wing noise, ensuring I was asleep and allowingit to rest undisturbed 
wherever it pleased.

Moreover,it is worth noting that only female mosquitoes bite, as they require 
blood foregg development.

Mynote- Satirical  answer. For me themosquitos travel near ears  or 
towardsback. I also find they reside near plants and know the time I go 
forwatering  and fly and bite me in legs.  Ihave no alternative othe than to 
kill them with a mosquito bat, but some are very clever to give me severebites 
next time I go for watering.They are clever to avoid my bat. -

Themirror behind the bar trick

Therewas once a bar owner who was fed up that his patrons seemed to get 
particularlyangry and confrontational when they had been drinking for a while. 
He wasn'tsure why this was the case,but he knew that he needed to find a way to 
prevent these kinds of incidentsfrom occurring.

Oneday, the bar owner had an idea. He decided to install a large mirror behind 
the bar. At first,his patrons didn't really notice the mirror, but as the night 
went on, they began to realize that theycould see their own reflections in it.

Asthey looked at themselves, they were able to take a step back and see the 
waythey were behaving from a different perspective.

They saw the frowns on their facesand the tense posture of their bodies, and 
they realized that they were gettingangry for no good reason.

This realization had a calming effect onthe patrons. They began to relax and 
let go of their anger, and as a result, the bar became amuch more peaceful and 
enjoyable place to be.

The bar owner was thrilled with theresults. The mirror behind the bar had 
turned out to be a simple but effectivesolution to a complex problem, and hewas 
grateful for the opportunity to create a more harmonious atmosphere for 
hiscustomers.

1. Use the 5-second rule. This is a simplebut powerful techniques thatcan help 
you overcome procrastination, fear, and self-doubt. Whenever you havean impulse 
to do something that will benefit you, such as working on a project,exercising, 
or speaking up in a meeting, count backwards from 5 to 1 and then act on 
it.Don't let your mind talk you out of it or make excuses. Just do it!

2. Visualize your success. Before you startany task or challenge, take afew 
minutes to imagine yourself achieving your desired outcome. See 
yourselfcompleting the task with ease, feeling proud and satisfied, and 
receivingpositive feedback from others. This will help you create a positive 
mentalimage of yourself and your abilities, and increase your chances of making 
it a reality.

3. Reframe your failures. Instead ofseeing your failures as evidence of 
yourincompetence or unworthiness, see them as opportunities to learn and 
grow.Every failure is a feedback that tells you what you need to improve or 
change.Don't take it personally or dwell on it. Instead, ask yourself what you 
canlearn from it and how you can apply it to your future endeavors.

4. Practice gratitude. One of the easiestand most effective ways toimprove your 
mood and outlook is to practice gratitude every day. Make a habitof writing 
down three things that you are grateful for every morning orevening, or 
whenever you feel stressed or overwhelmed. It can be anything, bigor small, 
such as your health, your family, your friends, or even a cup ofcoffee. This 
will help you focus on the positive aspects of your life andreduce your 
negative emotions.

5. Challenge your negative thoughts. We allhave negative thoughts fromtime to 
time, such as "I can't do this", "I'm not goodenough", or "I don't deserve 
this". These thoughts can limit ourpotential and sabotage our success. The key 
is to challenge them and replacethem with more realistic and positive ones. For 
example, instead of thinking"I can't do this", think "I can do this if I work 
hard and askfor help". Instead of thinking "I'm not good enough", think "I have 
many strengthsand skills that I can use". Instead of thinking "I don't 
deservethis", think "I have earned this and I deserve to enjoy it".

Q6         What is the best food to unclogarteries?

A6         Arpit Pratap Singh, Cardio specialistaccomplished at diagnosing 
cardio ailments Apr 6

Cardiac arrest is a serious condition wherethe heart suddenly stops beating. It 
canlead to permanent brain damage or death if not treated immediately. While 
there are several factors thatcan contribute to cardiac arrest, such as 
genetics and lifestyle habits,maintaining a healthy diet can help prevent the 
build-up of plaquein the arteries that can lead to heart disease and increase 
the risk of cardiacarrest.

Here are some foods that can help unclogarteries andpromote heart health:

Fattyfish:…..

Nuts: Almonds and walnuts are high infiber, healthy fats, and plantsterols, 
which can help lower cholesterol levels.

Berries: Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are packed with 
antioxidantsthat can help reduce inflammation and improve blood flow.

Leafy greens: Spinach, kale, and collardgreens are rich in vitamins andminerals 
that can help prevent the build-up of plaque in the arteries.

Whole grains: Oats, brown rice, and quinoaare high in fiber, which canhelp 
lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.

however,it's important to note that maintaining a healthy diet alone may not 
beenough to prevent cardiac arrest.

 Other lifestyle factors, such asregular exercise, avoiding smoking and 
excessive alcohol consumption, andmanaging stress levels are also important for 
heart health.

The effects of cardiac arrest can bedevastating, leading to brain damage or 
even death. However, with prompt medical attention andproper treatment, many 
patients can recover from cardiac arrest and resume anormal life.

Here are some real-life patient cases:

Ravi, a 42-year-old man, suffered asudden cardiac arrest whilejogging. A 
bystander called for emergency medical services (EMS), and Ravi wasgiven CPR 
and defibrillation before being transported to the hospital. He underwent 
angioplasty toremove blockages in his arteries and was discharged a week later 
with nolasting effects.

Meena, a 55-year-old woman, experiencedcardiac arrest while at home. Herhusband 
called 112 immediately, and the EMS arrived within minutes to provideCPR and 
defibrillation.Meena was then taken to the hospital, where she underwent bypass 
surgery.She was able to return home after two weeks and has since made 
lifestylechanges to improve her heart health.

Manoj, a 36-year-old man, suffered acardiac arrest while playingcricket. He 
received CPR and defibrillation from the EMS and was taken to thehospital, 
where he was treated for an underlying heart condition. He was discharged after 
a week withno lasting effects.

Despitethe potential for recovery, not all patients survive cardiac arrest. 

For example, Rohit, a 30-year-old man, experienced a cardiac arrest while 
sleepingand did not receive prompt medical attention. He waspronounced dead at 
the scene.

In summary, maintaining a healthydiet rich in foods that can help unclog 
arteries, suchas fatty fish, nuts, berries, leafy greens, and whole grains, can 
help preventheart disease and reduce the risk of cardiac arrest. However, it's 
important toalso prioritize other lifestyle factors, such as regular exercise, 
avoidingsmoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and managing stress levels. 
If you or someone around you experiences a cardiac arrest, it's criticalto call 
emergency services immediately (112 in India) for the best chance ofrecovery.

Q7         Which harsh truths of life aredifficult to digest?

A7         Rahul Gautam Gautam,11h

Iwent to a big restaurant in Delhi with four of my friends. We were celebrating 
because weall got salary increases. As soon as we took a round table, six 
otherpeople also took a table right in front of ours.

We got our food after 20 minutes. After 5minutes, six people sitting at the 
front table also got their food.

Oneof the women gave a Rs 500note to the waiter as a tip. Thewaiter smiled, 
said thank you and turned and walked away.

But,the person giving the tip immediately called the waiter back.The waiter 
cameback smiling and said: Yes madam, what else do you want?

Woman:Stand by our table until we finish eating.

The waiter stood there, and his smiledisappeared. Sixpeople kept eating and the 
waiter had to stand at one place.

Thiswas a real example of the hunger for influence and power that I witnessed. 
This woman gave the poor man a "big" tip andasked him to give up everything 
else and serve only her and her friends. Noconcern about that poor man's job 
nor his health (he had to stand for almost anhour!).

Thisis our Indian society. A person who has a lot of money has great status, 
andthat person considers it his right to treat others badly.

Mynote- Normally customers do not likethe waiter standing near while they eat , 
irrespectiveof serving quickly or not.
