A Memoir - This Month Last Year - Feb 2019 www.thelifesway.com #TheLifesWay #PhotoYatra

Hi Friends,

February is the month of Love and Marriage anniversary for me. I got married on 11th Feb and it's been 12 years since we got together. People celebrate Valentine's Day with full enthusiasm and we too celebrated our anniversary this year with a trip to Dubai, UAE on our annual break. This was my first International flight in many years as I only took a Garden Route flights earlier in 2019. 

1. 5 Years of Life in #Johannesburg #SouthAfrica #6YearsofTheLifesWay - http://www.thelifesway.com/2019/02/5-years-of-life-in-johannesburg.html - I completed 5 years last year in Johannesburg, South Africa and felt great about the same. I shared my experience of living in the city and how my life got shaped in the last 5 years in the city of Gold. I think now I have completed 6 years so shall I write a new post or just update the old one. Let's see what's in store! 

2. 21 Years of #Engineering Degree #TheLifesWayReviews #6YearsofTheLifesWay - http://www.thelifesway.com/2019/02/21-years-of-engineering-degree.html - It's been 21 long years since I did my Electronics and Communications Engineering from 1997-2001. I recently met my first best friend from engineering on my recent trip to India in 2020 and it was great to share the bond of friendship with this guy. He is my lifeline and I really loved meeting him after a gap of many years. Whatsapp needs to keep us connected now in 2020 and beyond.

3. #TheLifesWayReviews @Xiaomi Mi Home iHealth Thermometer @TheGearbest - http://www.thelifesway.com/2019/02/thelifeswayreviews-xiaomi-mi-home.html - Gearbest sent me this product to review and I totally loved using the same as it's easy with my 2 years old kid to just check his temperature if any at any moment of the day. It's really a useful product and every home where kids live shall have the same. It's easy to order from GearBest and it can be shipped to South Africa easily.

I am very grateful to all the brands and PR agencies to work with me and I am going to do whatever I wanted to do and could not do in the last many years. The blog posts which I always wanted to do and the products I love to use I will promote and share. I will continue to share my experience with all my readers and the brands I love.

Cheers!!!

A Memoir - This Month Last Year - Jan 2019 www.thelifesway.com #TheLifesWay #PhotoYatra

Hi Friends,

January 2019 was the time when my blog completed 6 years and I made some resolutions at the start of the year. I followed them sincerely and completed many of them. This year January was the time to meet my family and friends in India as I traveled after a gap of 3 years. My MBA friends made it a point to book an Airbnb in New Delhi and relive the moments with each other. It was one of the most relaxing meets of the decade when all of us met after 13 long years under a single roof. Really grateful to all of them. 

1. #TheLifesWayReviews @iFrogz Coda #Wireless #Headphones with Mic #Music #Calls - http://www.thelifesway.com/2019/01/thelifeswayreviews-ifrogz-coda-wireless.html - iFrogz makes a lot of great audio products and I got this Coda Wireless on-ear headphones and totally loved them. I am a big fan of earphones and headphones and I am attracted to them a lot. Whenever a new one is launched in the market, my first reaction is to have them or at least try them out. I am hooked to the new Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus but I have not even seen the first version of the same. 

2. #TheLifesWayReviews S-Pen Is it a #GameChanger? 11 Features I loved @SamsungMobileSA #GalaxyNote9 - I really loved S-Pen in my Note 8 and when I got the chance to check out the features in Note 9 S Pen, I totally loved the same. Now they have Note 10 also in the market which I have also reviewed and will share the new features on my blog posts soon. S Pen is something that can make your bullet journaling fun on the smartphone.

3. A Memoir - This Month Last Year - Jan 2018 www.thelifesway.com #TheLifesWay - It's been a regular series and remembering the last year and the posts you did nostalgic. I don't want to discontinue this series and may introduce some new series this year. I am focussed on the same and I am also doing what I was not doing earlier - reading books and listening to audiobooks in 2020. 

4. 6 Years of www.TheLifesWay.com #TheLifesWay #Birthday #Blogpost #6YearsofTheLifesWay #1675thPost - I have completed 7 years now and I am on my way to learn new things and fall in love with The Life's Way again and work towards making it to the top. I am going to do it slowly and steadily and you will see the same. 

5. #Technology and #Children - Can They Go Hand in Hand? #Parenting #6YearsofTheLifesWay - Kids are glued to the mobile and TV screens all the time and I have a lot of old devices that are available to them. Though I don't share my current devices with them at all and my family tries to only use the screen time to see the necessary shows and movies and nothing else. Reyansh sees the nursery poems whenever he is eating food.

I hope 2020 to be a year that will bring me a lot of execution of ideas rather than waiting and procrastinating them for the next years. I plan to start working on my Youtube channel and did some initial study on my holidays in India. I am ready and I can't wait anymore to learn new things in life. Also this year I will turn 40 and the time to research ends and now it's time to implement and discover new strengths.

Cheers!!!

6 Days To www.TheLifesWay.com 5th Birthday Celebrations #5YearsofTheLifesWay #27Dec2017 #SelfSufficient

Hi Friends,

Life will always be full of surprises and you will always be amazed at what it offers if you are curious enough. There is no dearth for someone who is ready to take on the challenge to live the life joyfully. Gratefulness is the first step which can really bring us a positive change in our lives. I have felt this so many times in my life that stay humble and you will get what you have even in your subliminal mind. I have full faith in the Law of Attraction and Law of Karma.

I think on a different pattern where I want to be self-sufficient as I don't like using anyone's else stuff and only love my own things which I have bought. I can live without until the time I can get the same for myself. In my life, I have always taken care of all the things myself and totally loved handling the pressure or the thought process to overcome the same. It has helped me grow into an individual who has his own opinions about stuff and views on several topics. 

I can always talk about various topics, stuff, and things under the sun and I have won so many General Knowledge contests. I have always thought of myself as an encyclopedia of information with a good processor to get the information access fast when someone asks me in a quiz contest. That competitive spirit is always inside me and I have loved bringing that up during the contest. If there is some contest going on and if I am interested in winning the thing, there is nothing that can stop me to reach my end result. I will always achieve what I set my eyes on and I am thankful to Universe to help me in the same. 

Nothing can be accomplished without hard work and if you brain power then it will be easy. It just needs discipline and perseverance to carry on towards your goals. Sometimes I have felt that a person takes a lot of time to define new goals once the first ones are achieved, there shall never be the dearth of activities you want to learn or do in your life. Always keep a life journal with you and keep making the list of things you want to do in your life! Life is limited but you can have the infinite joy in this life and that's living the life in a real The Life's Way!!! - Aashish Rai

A Memoir - This Month Last Year - Feb 2017 www.thelifesway.com #TheLifesWay

Hi Friends, 

February is the month of love and product launches as there are so many new smartphones launched at MWC and various new technological gadgets. Every new gadget is a product of numerous amount of hard work along with the intent of making it as smart as possible. Processing powers of devices are increasing day by day. What I studied in my Electronics engineering (1997-2001) 17 years ago is old now as new technologies and innovations have taken their space. You need to be on your toes always with the latest technologies if you want to understand and work on them too.

1. Xperia XA1 and XA1 Ultra Brings Superior #Camera Quality #SonyMWC @SonyXperiaZA - http://www.thelifesway.com/2017/02/xperia-xa1-and-xa1-ultra-brings.html - Sony is one of the companies I have always admired as their range of products is so big and I have so many products available with myself which I have bought over the years. From ebook reader to noise-cancellation headphones to iPod dock - I had it all. I recently reviewed the XA1 Ultra and liked the features of this mid-range smartphone. 

2. Music Streaming: The Now of Digital Marketing @EclipsePR - http://www.thelifesway.com/2017/02/music-streaming-now-of-digital.html - Music is an integral part of everyone's life and how this is impacting the world of digital marketing was the focus of this post. Music and Books are the most sold items other than the groceries which is required us to live. 

3. #UberEATS Prospers In South Africa @Uber_RSA - http://www.thelifesway.com/2017/02/ubereats-prospers-in-south-africa.html - Uber Eats is an app which has taken the world by storm but when I tried to use it for some food items to buy - I found that the price is little higher set by restaurants for the same item as compared to dine-in offered in the restaurant and then there will be some R10 to get it delivered. I always thought that the takeaways shall be cheaper than the dine-in's. I have not been able to part of this trend because it's not cost effective for me but considering the travel cost and petrol prices - it's worth looking at and hoping to do so this year.

4. World’s First Super #SlowMotion Video in @SonyXperiaZA XZ Premium #SonyMWC - http://www.thelifesway.com/2017/02/worlds-first-super-slowmotion-video-in.html - Recently Samsung also launched their S9/S9+ with slow-motion video capabilities at MWC18 to which when Sony launched their latest XZ devices mentioned that they already had 960fps video capabilities launched last year at MWC17 and all the journalist present at the event laughed to their heart desires. Great use of anecdotes in real life is the basics of using smartness can bring laughter to any launch event.

5. Genuine, Quality Devices are #Gifts that Keep on Giving @SamsungMobileSA - http://www.thelifesway.com/2017/02/genuine-quality-devices-are-gifts-that.html -Samsung has been the front-runner of technology and I still remember when it was my time to buy my first mobile phone, I had a choice between Alcatel and Samsung. Alcatel offered so many features but Samsung was unibody and it worked for its life and I am happy that I chose Samsung at that time. Again, when I was in London, I bought again another Samsung phone which has the full keyboard (Blackberry type) on this phone while the market was flooded with latest Galaxy S1 launched. Since the last 2 years, Samsung SA is giving out devices (S8 and S9) to journalists/bloggers attending their launch events and these have been the years I am not invited to those. I have otherwise been part of many previous launch events and got earphones and pen drives etc. This thing has pained me a lot and gave me sleepless nights whenever this thought comes to my mind but life goes on...

Always bet on those who bet on you and don't fall for any traps unless your demands are met. If you are doing so, you are already in the vicious circle where they will rotate your n number of times till either you are tired or you succumb to their pressure.

16 Days To www.TheLifesWay.com 5th Birthday Celebrations #5YearsofTheLifesWay #27Dec2017 #Dreams

Hi Friends,

No matter what it takes to finish this series of posts I started way back in December 2017, I will get them done. It's the story of my life and experiments with blogging and PR companies from many brands. I feel alone in the market today but I will shine one day as and when the time is right. Meanwhile, I have started my youtube channel using the smartphone I bought recently and will start posting the videos where I will be in them too. Also, I got 1 Million views on Google Maps - Local Guides program making me MASTER PHOTOGRAPHER on their badge and ranking system. I feel delighted as I focused on the same since July 2017 on and off and in November/December, I upped the game using the photographs that were lying in my hard disk to go online and help Google Maps. It's not that hard to get to that status but I feel happy to be there. Follow me on instagram @araijain 

Secondly, I have decided to start rather than wait for the right time etc. or resources or the perfect stuff to write. It's always my stigma and gives me huge delays in my posts on any of the social media channels. You need to always go ahead and post what is right at the moment instead of delaying it to the future. Thirdly, I will stop the subscription to the automated tweets systems in March 2018, I have been using for the last 2 years. It will impact me hugely but I am not using it to the best of its abilities and thinking about the content I want to create in the coming months, it won't serve me the purpose. 

I will continue to finish all the tasks which are pending on me from various brands for many of the smartphones and laptops - I got to review and for which I still have to write the right stuff. It has been delayed due to don't know what kind of work or small stuff which has been attached to my life. I have to clear it from my desk and mind asap. Also, I have now worked on a plan to review the devices which will give a 360-degree view of the device from all features perspective. I am working towards all this in this new year 2018 and I hope to achieve the good work in the coming years with a dream to reach Mobile World Congress in 2020.

15 Days                                                                                                                                        17 Days

Cheers!!!
