Exploring The Complexities of Perfectionism: A Double-edged Sword

Exploring The Complexities of Perfectionism: A Double-edged Sword Are you the type of person who often has exceedingly high standards for yourself? Do you often struggle to live up to your own expectations, which constantly makes you feel inadequate and unfulfilled? Then you might be able to relate to this topic. Even though perfectionism  is mostly seen as a positive personality trait, in my opinion, it's not all sunshine and roses.   At first glance, you'd think striving for perfection would motivate you to be more productive and efficient, right?   Contrary to this belief, perfectionism comes with a great deal of anxiety and fear, which significantly disrupts the quality of your performance. This is mostly due to the fact that perfectionism is rooted in our insecurities and low self esteem issues. Usually, perfectionists are way too worried about their self-image and how people perceive them. They also often strive for validation. So, contrary to the notion that ...

                Pink, is not only a color Last week, I bought a shaving cream which cost me bdt.1850 when I saw my dad buying a shaving cream only for bdt.1200. Some people might ask what pink tax is? It's a hidden tax that mostly impacts goods and services targeted at women, raising the cost of practically identical goods. Imagine rummaging through toys, clothes, shampoo, razors, and other items as you stroll down store aisles. Coming back to what I personally face every time when I buy razors. A small razor that both men and women use, it is shocking how the price varies so much.  Even though both types of razors are designed to remove hair, a simple razor sold towards women may cost a lot more than a similar razor marketed towards men. There is still a price difference even though the only obvious difference could be the color of the handle or maybe a floral aroma added to the women's version. Even...

Dopamine detox : the ultimate solution to all gen-z problems

Image
 In a Gen-z's daily routine, there aren't much creative activities . Again their list of productive hobbies are also narrow . Now let's think about millennials . 'Almost every millennial youth lived like a main character ' , I always say this to define them in short . These guys were doing everything from studies to sports to cultural and social activities . They lived like the heroes of their own stories.  Using the term ' main character ' is a bit ironic. As us gen-zs created this slang but failed to be one.  "Gen-z", the most lost generation with lives filled with constant stimulation and digital distractions. We are always overwhelmed, anxious and unfulfilled. From social media notifications to endless scrolling, our brains are obsessed with quick dopamine hits, leaving us craving more , refraining from productivity .But what if I tell you that there’s a solution i used to break free from this cycle? Enters the dopamine detox, a powerful too...

Keys to Getting a Better Physique: A Fitness Journey

Image
   Socrates once said “No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.”  Have you ever wondered how happy we would’ve been if we achieved our dream body? More or less we’ve all wanted it. Didn’t we all, even sometimes in our lives, before going to bed or after waking up in the morning, stand in front of the mirror of our room/bathroom and stare at the mirror and zone out thinking about our body or how it could’ve been? Kudos to those who were always content with their body. Getting your dream body isn’t that hard. It’s all about perseverance and dedication.  Have you ever seen the demolition and construction of a building? It takes 2-3 years to construct a building. But it only takes 2 months to demolish it. Just like that, getting fit from fat might be easier than skinny to fit. My fitness journey Started in September (2021) when I was w...

                  UNIVERSITY LIFE TILL NOW Hello there, I'm Prottoy. I am currently studying Computer Science and Engineering at BRAC University. As a fresher the first semester has been a roller coaster ride for me. Faced some hard times along with moments to cherish about. I'm just gonna share some here. As I'm not a native dweller of Dhaka city, it was kind of a struggle for me to fit in here. New atmosphere, new people around me, new social life everything was slaggy at start. It didn't last long though. My roommate is my school's childhood friend so it was an advantage. My two other flatmates were also very nice and friendly, which eased many things for us. First day of the university was also very memorable for me. Even though I'm not a very shy person It felt kind of odd to me to talk to someone at first. I still talked with the guy named Yamin who sat beside me and came to know each other. He is my best university mate till date. Afte...

Football: Unveiling Magic on the Field

Image
 Tanvir Hasan Alid ID:24101145    Football has its very own legacy in the realm of the sports universe.  For certain people; it may seem just like a sport, but for me it's an emotion. The amount of thrill, enjoyment football gives can’t be described in words. A number of people captivated by its magic on the field and so do I. Football has its crazy fan base across the world. It is said that football fans are the craziest ones. The craziness and madness knows no bounds when any national or international tournament comes up. To me, it creates a totally different kind of environment, as people showing madness and craziness for their favorite football team. During any popular football tournament, people support their favorite team by making memes, funny videos, organizing huge programmes in university halls etc. The following picture is located in Dhaka University during a match of FIFA World Cup 2022, between Brazil and Switzerland.       ...
