How to achieve all your goals, 3 step process

Anyone can set a goal, but only an optimistic and hardworking person can achieve it. Step 1:- Remove negative thoughts Before setting a goal, mindset has to be changed. All the negative thoughts/believes (impurities) has to be washed off. Five tools to remove negative thoughts:- 1) Forgive 2) Gratitude 3) Unconditional love 4) Belief transformation 5) Change of attitude "Thoughts become things. If you see it in your mind, you will hold it in your hand.” -Bob Proctor Step 2:- Set goals Feel the goal, always think about and keep a strong belief of attaining the goal. Just like an athlete who only focuses on the finishing point, always focus on your goal (tunnel vision).  Visualize your goal twice a day. Best time to visualize is, within 40 min of waking up and 40 min before sleeping. Studies have shown this is the best time to register your goal in the subconscious mind. Putting a vision board somewhere you see it everyday with images of yourself achieving the goal. Affirmation ...

What is Gravitational Lensing and Einstein ring

The bending of light from its straight path due to massive objects is known as gravitational lensing. Sometimes this distortion can look like a ring around the massive body which is called an Einstein ring (see the image below). Credits:-  Lensshoe_hubble.jpg : ESA/Hubble & NASA                derivative work:   Bulwersator   ( talk ) In our high school, we learned that light always travels in a straight line, then you will be thinking how can light bend. What's happening here is that, the space around the object is curved. This is same as how a car/bike turns slowly if the road is slanted. pixabay The ability to bend space around an object increases with mass, hence black holes are a powerful lens. Since the amount of lensing depends on the mass we can use it to weigh clusters, galaxies. Similarly, light travelling closest to its center deviates more compared to the light travelling furthest to its center. This GIF shows lensin...
