AAP, Kejriwal magic among masses

A one year old Baby (AAP) Aam Adami Party, that made fighting corruption the focus of its campaign, has formed the government in the national capital Delhi. Now (AAP), this name is most common to all because of splended coverage by media.

This political party which has great impact on the common man is now planning to fight more than 350 seats in upcoming parliamentary elections in 2014. AAP has got boost from the results of Delhi assembly results and has obtained 28 seats out of 70.

The Janlokpal movement of Anna Hazare has spread awareness in the every individual about the corruption. Millions of people came together to fight with the corruption in India. Swami Ramdev has also plays a vital role to aware the mass about the black money and other issues around us.

Anti-Corruption wave was already going in the country, Kejriwal just have followed the path of this wind and reached the heights in only one year. Now Arind Kejriwal and Rahul Gandhi are considered young personalities in the Indian politics.

About AAP & Arvind Kejriwal:
The aim of Aam Adami Party is not to enter in the power; they entered in politics to change the current corrupt and self serving system of politics forever.

Arvind Kejriwal who is born on 16 august 1968 in Haryana, is graduated from IIT Kharagpur. Later he starts working for Indian Revenue Service (IRS) as a joint commissioner in the Income Tax Department.

He plays vital role to enact and implement the (RTI) Right To Information act 2005. He has many awards in his credit, in 2012, he launched the AAP he took office as chief minister of Delhi on 28 December 2013.

Aam Aadmi Party is formally launched on 26 November 2012. It came into existence following differences between the activist Anna Hazare regarding whether or not to politicize the popular India Against Corruption movement that had been demanding a Jan Lokpal Bill since 2011.

Hazare preferred that the movement should remain politically unaligned while Kejriwal felt that it is necessary to fight with the evil in a same ground where it is born.

Learn by doing

The best way of learning is by doing. Learning is never ending process. A human from his origin to death is in the process of learning. Every minute several thought arises in human mind and we learn something new in every minute.

One thing which should be considered that no one is perfect in today's world as changes are taking place very rapidly. Change is the law of nature; we have to change ourselves with the passage of time. So that's why it is said that best way of learning is by doing. The secret of getting ahead is getting started. So start now.
As an old Chinese proverb says in the context of learning:

I read- I forget
I see-   I remember
I do -   I understand
A best example of learn by doing is here as follows:
Anybody cannot learn to swim by reading number of books; one has to get into water to actually learn swimming. The study done by anyone in any field is incomplete till it is not done practically.

Even at the time of interview first question which is asked that have you any kind of experience in this field. Students those who pursue professional courses they too have to take part in internship program to prepare them for that environment in which they have to work.

Have you ever ponder upon it that why doing is important. By doing it is often measured that failure is more easy then success. So to get success firstly one will face failure but later by doing it again and again it can be done successfully. If someone has done any work properly, at the back of it there is lot of experience that person have.
There are less chances of success in first attempt but doing it again and again one can come out with success. In real life at the time of failure most profound learning takes place.

It is rightly said that failure are the stepping stone in the path of success.

Meanwhile we should not conclude that everything can be learning by doing. It is some time dangerous and even expensive too to let someone learn something by actually doing e.g. by flying an airplane and doing major operation with human body.

Winters are the season when sun appears at noon at its lowest altitude above the horizon.  Many festivals took place during this year like Diwali, Christmas, New Year and Valentine’s Day.
