Who is Rakhi Sawant to blame Arvind kejriwal :/

By
Hello friends, Today i have seen the interview of one of our low grade Nachaniya ( item girl ) Rakhi Sawant on Delhi chief minister Mr. Arvind Kejriwal. She was criticizing Kejriwal for his recent road show in Delhi and telling a slogan in a very cheap manner-"Apna kaam banta bhaad me jaaye janta" about Kejriwal. But before asking kejriwal such type of questions, just look at your career because i don't think you have anything except some cheap songs,movies and drama scandals. You always do such type of work for getting attention/publicity but i don't think you hardly have any chances in any field except some vulgarity events/shows and you always fit there.Even you are now insulted for your scandals on National tv channels also LOL. Here is that interview : You are just a drama queen,nothing else. And who are you to say such things about Mr.Kejriwal.First of all, i will tell you please read his full encyclopedia at HERE an

What can completely change our life to another level?

By
You don’t need other people to validate you, you’re already valuable, Be low key, be private, be humble, The longer you can delay short term gratification, the bigger the reward in the long term, The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude, Limit your negativity, maximise your gratitude. Make today count. Believe deep down in your heart that you’re destined to do great things, Life is a lot like sports. If you don’t play, you’re going to spend a lot of time watching others score, If you let go of all your baggage & wake up in the morning with a clean slate, every amazing possibility would be free to enter your life, If you’ve no long term vision or purpose or goals you’ll chase random things that come by.

Why Google adsense is the best than other advertising network ?

By
Friends, Today I want to discuss about google adsense service provided by Google for website/blog owners.This service is provided to web publishers to monetize their web content and place ads according to the content and earn revenue by impression and clicks.
