What has been your most uncomfortable experience on a train? | Munipalli Akshay Paul |
2 years ago, it was during Holi time,
We had to come from Delhi to Prayagraj, we
were not getting reservation in ' AC coach ' in any train,I was compelled to book a reservation in a sleeper coach on a train going to Bihar, West Bengal ( via Prayagraj ) .I thought, it's okay, at least I
got a reservation in sleeper , I won't have to travel in general. :-) We reached the platform at ' Nizamuddin Railway Station ' ( Delhi ) where the train was to arrive,
There was already a huge crowd on the platform and as soon as the train arrived, there was a stampede to get into the train, many people even fell here and there!
It took us 10 minutes to board the train…and when we all reached our seats, we saw that there were 6 people sitting on each berth and none of them had a reservation!
They all had to be removed forcefully and had to be explained that," Brother
we have reservation in this seat, and you people are sitting there " :-D
Somehow those people got off their seats but some sat on the floor, those who did not get a place to sit on the floor remained standing, some people requested and adjusted themselves with someone,
And those who couldn't find a place to sit, sat outside the toilet in the empty space between two bogies .
30% of them did not even have tickets. ( They were made to get off by the police in Kanpur )
This is the suffocating scene of that train!
Understand the meaning, there was so much crowd that if someone wanted to go to the toilet , he would have to ask 20-30 people to move aside . : -|
Somehow I fell asleep, I thought the train would reach Prayagraj at 7 am, but when I woke up at 6:30, I got to know that the train was 4 hours late!! - _ -
( Salt in the wound… )
I had never felt more uncomfortable in my life.

Write an Essay about Value of Effort ...? " munipalli akshay paul "
The Value of Effort: The Key to Achievement and Growth Effort is a concept that transcends the simple act of trying; it is the fuel behind progress, the engine driving personal and collective achievement. In many ways, effort is the true measure of a person’s commitment, determination, and resilience. While talent, intelligence, or luck may play a role in success, it is an effort that often determines whether a goal is achieved or a dream becomes a reality. The value of effort lies not only in its ability to produce results but also in the lessons it teaches and the growth it fosters. In this essay, we will explore the value of effort from different perspectives: its role in personal development, its impact on success, and its importance in shaping character. Effort as a Catalyst for Personal Growth At its core, effort is essential for personal growth. Growth, whether intellectual, emotional, or physical, cannot occur without exerting some form of effort. It is only through dedicati...

Would the human face really freeze solid in a few seconds, when exposed to -150 degrees Fahrenheit air, like the pilot of the crashed helicopter in The Day After Tomorrow? | Munipalli Akshay Paul ||
Back during college days we had a little fun with a dewar flask and liquid nitrogen. Kind of like this Someone scooped up a handful of liquid nitrogen and threw it in my face. What do you think happened? Did my face freeze solid? No. I didn’t have frostbite either. It felt like a splash of cold water for a second and then nothing, I was dry. Quite an interesting experience really. Liquid nitrogen is denser than air and has a temperature well below -150 F. It’s only about 3% as dangerous as you think, but nonetheless well above the dangers of the air you mention. You could get frostbite within minutes, the guy who doused his t-shirt in liquid nitrogen and then put it on did get second degree frostbite on his back, but you won’t freeze solid or anything like that. The greatest danger is the shock you’ll suffer from breathing in such cold air. After that it’s the frostbite and the bitter cold, yes.
What should a tourist not do in Pattaya? | Munipalli Akshay Paul |
I am in Pattaya right now and have been staying here for the last three days and the following are the deductions from what I have heard from cab drivers, YouTube vlogs and seen from own experience. If you don't want to land in any trouble, stay away from the massage parlours. They will lure you into something else and take you upstairs or into a separate room and they will claim that you have misbehaved with the masseuse and will call the police on you. They will blackmail you basically and you will end up parting ways with at least a couple of thousands of bahts. Similarly, stay away from any over-friendly freelancer, especially at the Pattaya Walking Street. They will try to touch you, hug you but they are not being friendly. They are finding ways to get inside your pockets and steal your wallet or snatch a chain or a ring. If you are on a very tight budget trip, avoid taking the local tuk-tuks because they charge an exorbitant price to the tourists. Either get a shared taxi or ...
Explain about empowered mindset...? "munipalli akshay paul"
An empowered mindset is a mental state where individuals believe in their ability to influence outcomes, take control of their lives, and create positive change. This mindset is rooted in self-awareness, responsibility, and a focus on solutions rather than obstacles. Unlike a victim mindset, which is characterized by helplessness and blame, an empowered mindset emphasizes accountability, resilience, and proactive behavior. Key Characteristics of an Empowered Mindset 1. Self-Belief: People with an empowered mindset have confidence in their abilities and trust that they can overcome challenges. 2. Accountability: They take full responsibility for their actions, decisions, and outcomes, rather than blaming external factors or others. 3. Proactive Behavior: An empowered mindset involves taking initiative and seeking opportunities to improve circumstances rather than waiting for change to happen. 4. Focus on Solutions: Instead of dwelling on problems, empowered individuals channel their ene...
