There comes a time when we have to conduct research. It could be for a school project, a presentation or a report that you have to submit. Back in the day, research was a strenuous process. It meant hitting the library and diving into books, journals and newspaper – a true hunt for information. Today, you don’t have to hit the library, but that does not mean researching is fun, for most of us at least, it’s still a bore. The internet is our research haven, a one-stop spot.  So how do you get done with this cumbersome and tiresome process quickly?

Writing fiction is all what most of us want to do. Nothing would be more fulfilling than having your story up on book shelves in a store. Yet, writing fiction is not easy.

Before businesses go big, before businesses become MNCs and before businesses start dolling out money, there was just one person. A lone entrepreneur trying to get an idea working and get a business rolling. When Apple first started in a garage, at least Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak could support each other. You, on the other hand, have to bare the burden on your own. Creating a successful business is just like climbing up a mountain. It is a step by step process which is very difficult and at every moment, part of you wants to call it quits and at times, you may have almost reached the peak.
