Education14 Questions To Ask Yourself When You Feel Like You’re Stuck In Life by Yusuf001(op): 10:18am On Feb 08, 2018
1. Am I happy?

Make no mistake. Happiness and comfort are not the same things. You can be both, absolutely. But it’s also very easy to fall into a delusion where we mistake comfort and routine and familiarity with happiness. So if you feel yourself going through the motions and wandering around in a fog or a rut, it’s probably time to take a good, hard, long look in the mirror, and really ask yourself whether or not you’re happy. And if the answer isn’t an instant, “Yes,” you need to do some more digging into the why behind that lack of a yes.
2. If money was no object, what would I do tomorrow?

Wanting to be financially stable and successful is not a bag thing. But what can get murky and messy and ultimately, detrimental, is giving up on things that make you feel fulfilled and passionate and happy in the name of financial gain. So if your bank account wasn’t an issue, what would you do? And then, is there a way that you can figure out how to merge being stable with pursuing that? Because if there is, you might just strike gold.
3. Why exactly do I feel stuck?

Deep down, you probably know. It’s pretty rare that feeling apathetic about your entire life or feeling like you’re going in circles comes with absolutely NO reason behind it. So examine things, ask yourself the tough questions. Getting to the root of the problem is the first step to solving it.

4. If I answer immediately off the top of my head, what do I want to change in my life?

Your heart is easily manipulated and your head often overthinks. But your gut? Your gut instinct always knows. So if you were to answer without thinking too much or too emotionally, what would you say? Your first instinct is probably the first place to look when you know you’re ready to make a change, but aren’t sure where exactly to start.

5. Who is someone with a career/personal life/relationship or whatever that I admire and/or look up to?

There’s a super popular theory that you are the result of taking on the personalities of the five people you spend the most time with. While attempting to emulate someone you admire isn’t EXACTLY the same thing, it’s not a bad idea either. If you’re feeling stuck, dissatisfied, or just generally like you’re unhappy with your life, striving to live or work in a similar way as someone you look up to can only help you. Take their advice, study their patterns that seem opposite to yours. You might be surprised by how living like them helps you BE like them. And, in turn, be happier with yourself.

6. How much time do I spend each day pursuing something or doing something that I truly love?

If your life is one big lather, rinse, repeat of a bunch of things that you feel completely unexcited by, it can’t be that big of a surprise that you feel stuck. Life doesn’t just happen to you. Stumbling into things that make you ecstatically happy is something that only happens on TV. If you want things to be magical, sometimes you have to make the magic yourself.

7. What is the worst thing that could happen if I took a chance?

Seriously. If you were to take a chance, take the leap, what is the ultimate worst case scenario? Sometimes really looking at and facing the bad that could happen makes the bad a little less intimidating.

8. So worst thing aside, what’s stopping me from going for it?

You need to be honest with yourself. If it’s not the worst case scenario, why are you really not going after what you want? What’s stopping you? And this isn’t the time to make excuse after excuse or point the blame in a direction that takes it away from you. When you really start to figure out what’s holding you back from living the life you want, that’s when you’ll be able to start making changes and head towards living in a way that makes you happier.

9. What are the things I keep saying I’m going to do, but for whatever reason never end up doing?
We all have a bucket list that for whatever
reason never seems to get shorter or have things ticked off. So what are the things you keep saying you’ll do or WANT to do…but then just don’t? Give yourself permission to do the things that you’re curious about or that make you excited. You deserve to check things off your bucket list.

10. Do I talk to and treat myself like I’m my own best friend?

It’s scary how easy it is to fall into a cycle of negativity where we beat ourselves up and berate ourselves to a degree that is honestly abusive. Think about the standard you hold yourself to. Is it unreachable? Would you expect anywhere near that of anyone else in your life? The things you tell yourself, would you say them to your best friend? You need to give yourself a break and be a little kinder to yourself. Being gentler and nicer to yourself isn’t pathetic or some sort of frivolous “self-love” hack, it’s necessary to end up in a place where you’re actually happy.

11. Am I settling?

And if so, why? Make no mistake, settling is in no way synonymous with failure. But settling can be an indicator that you’ve given up on something, or you’re not willing to just try. In order to avoid eventually looking back and wondering what if you have to stop yourself from settling, and fight back against it when you do.

12. Do I have micro-regrets?

Settling can lead to regrets that maybe aren’t massive, but are there nonetheless. What ifs. Things you wish you would have done. When you’re not living a life that challenges you or sparks something inside of you, you can ultimately end up with a list of things that you’ll wish you’d done differently. And if you’re not aware of these mini-regrets and making changes to avoid them, you’ll likely just continue adding to the list. It’s impossible to live a life completely devoid of regrets, but it is possible to stop living in a cycle where regrets keep adding up.

13. What am I holding onto that I really need to let go?

Holding onto things instead of letting go is, frankly, a selfish and often fruitless endeavor. There’s no glory in hanging onto things just for the sake of hanging onto them. No one is winning prizes for “Obsessed And Lingered And Refused To Let Go For The Longest!!!” Harboring things will only end up holding you back. Emotionally, mentally, maturity wise. The person who wins when you let go? It’s you.

14. What are the things that are most important to me?

What are the things that make you the happiest? That fulfill you the most? That make waking up an adventure instead of something you dread? Those are the things that deserve your attention and that you should be ensuring continue to grow in your life. Don’t let the things that you love teeter off and don’t let yourself grow distant from them. Ultimately, the things that are most important to you are the things that can make your life the best. So focus on them, and the rest will likely follow

ComputersMicrosoft To Discontinue Word, Powerpoint, And Excel Viewers by Yusuf001(op): 9:28pm On Nov 22, 2017
Well, if you are using Windows operating system then you would know that the company maintains a list of viewer apps for some of its Microsoft office apps. Microsoft announced this week in the Office updates blogs that it will discontinue PowerPoint Viewer, Excel Viewer, and Word Viewer in April 2018.


Microsoft Will Discontinue Word, PowerPoint, and Excel Viewers
Well, if you are using Windows operating system then you would know that the company maintains a list of viewer apps for some of its Microsoft office apps. With the help of those viewer apps, Windows users can run to read documents without having any third-party Office or Microsoft office installed on the machine.

The reason why we are talking about Viewer apps is that Microsoft announced this week in the Office updates blogs that it will discontinue
PowerPoint Viewer , Excel Viewer, and Word Viewer in April 2018.

According to the reports from gHacks, these apps are introduced when Microsoft updated the default document format for the Microsoft Office apps and was deemed to lend a hand to people sticking with the older formats.

Microsoft Word Viewer is projected to kill off in this month, whereas both Excel and PowerPoint viewer is projected to be killed off in April 2018. Microsoft says “The Microsoft Word Viewer is being retired in November 2017. At that time, the Viewer will no longer be available for download and will no longer receive security updates,”
So, PowerPoint viewer and Excel Viewer will be available for download until April 2018.

Microsoft will remove the downloads and will stop releasing the updates or bug fixes to these applications after that time.

Christianity EtcFive (5) Reasons Why God Uses Problems by Yusuf001(op): 2:46pm On Nov 17, 2017
FIVE (5) REASONS WHY GOD USES PROBLEMS
The problems you face will either defeat you or develop you – depending on how you respond to them. Unfortunately, most people fail to see how Allah wants to use problems for good in their lives. They react foolishly and resent their problems rather than pausing to consider what benefit they might bring.
Here are five ways Allah wants to use the problems in your life:

1. Allah uses problems to DIRECT you.
Sometimes God must light a fire under you to get you moving. Problems often point us in a new direction and motivate us to change. Is God trying to get your attention? “Sometimes it takes a painful situation to make us change our ways

2. Allah uses problems to INSPECT you.
People are like tea bags…if you want to know what’s inside them, just drop them into hot ever water! Has God tested your faith with a problem What do problems reveal about you? “When you have many kinds of troubles, you should be full of joy, because you know that these troubles test your faith, and this will give you patience.”

3. Allah uses problems to CORRECT you.
Some lessons we learn only through pain and failure. It’s likely that as a child your parents told you not to touch a hot stove…. But you probably learned by being burned. Sometimes we only learn the value of something… health, money, a relationship.. .. by losing it. “It was the best thing that could have happened to me, for it taught me to pay attention to your laws.”

4. Allah uses problems to PROTECT you.
A problem can be a blessing in disguise if it prevents you from being harmed by something more serious.. Last year a friend was fired for refusing to do something unethical that his boss had asked him to do. His unemployment was a problem – but it saved him from being convicted and sent to prison a year later when management’s actions were eventually discovered. “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good…”

5. Allah uses problems to PERFECT you.
Problems, when responded to correctly, are character builders. God is far more interested in your character than your comfort. Your relationship to God and your character are the only two things you’re going to take with you into eternity. “We can rejoice when we run into problems…they help us learn to be patient.. And patience develops strength of character in us and helps us trust God more each time we use it until finally our hope and faith are strong and steady.”
Here’s the point:
God is at work in your life – even when you do not recognize it or understand it. But it’s much easier and profitable when you cooperate with Him.
“Success can be measured not only in achievements, but in lessons learned, lives touched and moments shared along the way”r
EducationOvercoming Self Doubt?, 3 Questions To Ask Yourself by Yusuf001(op): 8:43pm On Nov 12, 2017
When you’re riddled with self-doubt, having any sort of confidence can seem like a pipe dream. By identifying the doubts you have about yourself, and asking yourself these simple questions, you might be able to wiggle free of their suffocating embrace.

It’s perfectly normal to have a little self-doubt, but it shouldn’t keep you from doing the things you want to do. For example, maybe you think you’re not smart enough to accomplish something, or maybe you don’t think you’re attractive enough to ask someone out. Whatever particular doubts you have about yourself, 

1. Where did I learn this? 

Did someone say you weren’t smart? Is it because you had a hard time in a certain class? Or did you come up with it on your own?

2. How true is it really? 

More often than not, your belief isn’t rooted in fact, but assumption. Maybe you assume you aren’t smart because of one little incident.

3. What is the unconscious gain?

What is this self-doubt protecting you from? Maybe it’s really just a fear of taking risks and experiencing failure.

If you’re having a hard time answering, try to look at it from the third person. Once you know the answers to those questions you can begin to take action and move past your doubts. Some self-doubt will always linger, but you’ll at least be able to manage the worst of it and find some much-needed confidence.

Education20 Signs You’re Succeeding In Life – Even If You Don’t Feel You Are. by Yusuf001(op): 11:15am On Nov 06, 2017
Success does not always mean being the best and achieving the most. In fact, there are everyday things that we don’t consider important which are actually a part of our success in life. Read the following list of 20 signs that will help you feel a lot better about yourself.
1.Your relationships are less dramatic than they used to be
There is no room for drama in maturity. If your relationships were full of drama in the past, but now you have put that behind you, it is a clear sign of success.
2.You are not afraid to ask for help or support
Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Success is impossible if you isolate yourself from other people. You can accomplish your goals only if you work in a team and asking for help means you have grown a lot as a person.
3.You have raised your standards
You won’t tolerate bad behavior no matter who it comes from. Everyone is responsible for their actions and you know it. You don’t make room in your life for toxic people anymore.
4.You let go of things that don’t make you feel good
It sounds narcissistic, however it is actually a sign that you love yourself enough to let go of the things you feel uncomfortable with.
5.You appreciate what you see in the mirror
In fact, you should appreciate what you see in the mirror at any given moment of the day. If you are always aware of how much you are worth, it means you have succeeded in life.
6.You have learned that setbacks and failure are part of life
No one is 100% successful and no one is perfect. In life you will encounter victories and losses and the latter should be your setting stone for something much better. Don’t look at your losses as setbacks, instead consider them a thing that makes you grow into a stronger person.
7.You have people in your life who would do anything for you
If you are well aware of the people who will always stand up for you and pick you up when you are at the bottom, you are a very successful person. This lesson is learned the hard way because in order to see who is there for you, you will be betrayed many times in life.
8.You don’t complain much
You are aware that complaining about things no matter how horrible they were will never change anything. You know that you should live here and now and you are grateful for the life you were given.
9.You can celebrate other people’s successes
If other succeed it does not mean you have failed. Praise those who are rising and giving positive energy towards them will only result in that positive energy returning back to you.
10.You have passions that you pursue
You never sit at the same place because you are aware that you can contribute to the world with your unique talents and gifts. You are not just aware of it; in fact you take action.
11.You have things to look forward to
You constantly need things in your life that you will anticipate eagerly, unless you will be slowly dying. You need to create your goals and let the excitement of working towards them lead you to your success.
12.You have set goals that have come true
Failures and losses are an inevitable part of life, however sticking to your goals will result in success most of the times. Experiencing victory will give you the energy boost to keep going and creating new goals.
13.You have empathy for others
Being empathetic means you are able to spread love and positivity wherever you go. Successful people love other people just like they love their family members.
14.You love deeply and open yourself up to be loved by others
Love carries its risks, and it is scary for some people because of the possibility of being rejected. However, being able to open your heart without the fear of the outcome means you have succeeded and grown as a person.
15.You refuse to be a victim
You are the creator of your life experiences but these experiences are often given to you without your consent. This is why you need to be strong and accept them without being let down.
16.You don’t care what other people think
You can’t please everyone and you know it. So, instead you are true to yourself and love yourself just the way you are.
17.You always look on the bright side
Life is often filled with disappointments but only if you choose to look at them that way. Disappointments can also be viewed as learning opportunities and if you choose to learn from them they are no longer negative experiences.
18.You accept what you can’t change
You can’t have full control over every aspect of your life. However, you have control over how you feel about the things that happen to you. If you are able to look at things from the positive side, you are a successful person.
19.You change the things you can
There are more things you can change in your life than you may think. Successful people never accept the negative things that can be changed, so if there is something that bothers you stand up and do something about it.
20.Most importantly – you are happy
Being happy is the ultimate definition of success. It does not have to be connected with your bank account or the size of your house. If you are genuinely happy with no particular reason – you are a successful person.

EducationLetting Go ; 20 Mental Barriers Holding Us Back by Yusuf001(op): 9:17pm On Nov 04, 2017
One of the biggest lessons to be learnt in life is to travel light in our journey of life and enjoy good peace of mind. Our mental health dictates every action and reaction. Useless ideas, things clattering around us drag us down and we get into unnecessary hot balloon situation which is big mental barrier creating negative vibes.
We clinge too much on things that weight us down, and the real strength lies in letting go.
We must be brave enough to stop things that weight us down. We may have wings, but we will never soar like eagles if we keep the strings attached to the ground. And believe it or not, you are just a ‘click’ away from it… by choosing what you really need to focus on. Just stop for a minute, and if you haven’t started already, start meditating . You will never truly see what weighs you down unless you truly see the, pardon my word, retarded things that go in your head. We keep thinking many useless things, and I am afraid we do it a lot more than we need to.
By meditating in a peaceful place, you will focus on your thoughts, and it is only then that you realize you are burdened with useless thoughts, and you keep doing it constantly, through the
ENTIRE day.
Here are 20 mental barriers that one needs to let go of:
1. Let go of attachments: Attachment is one of the roots of all suffering. Let us not take pride in our possessions which are of temporary nature. One has to be grateful to the ‘higher power’ bestowing on us with these possessions rather than taking pride and feel too much attached to them. This should be the priority number one on the list of things to be let go of.
2. Let go of guilt: Feeling deep sense of guilt in our mind will distract positivity. Needs to shun instantly. What could guilt possibly solve? If you name a thing I will agree with you and pull back my words… yeah, that’s what I thought.
3. Let go of self criticism: A constant fear of self-criticism turns one to a situation of disempowerment. Those who are deficient in self esteem are likely to be carried away by any self- criticism and return to self pity mood and suffer mental agony. Remaining inactive is the instant solution for those who suffer from the risks of self criticism.
4. Let go of prejudices: A prejudiced mind is another serious mental barrier that promotes ill feelings, resentment, turns risky and becomes a serious road block for a good relationship. Need to be shaken off to promote good relationship.
5. Let go of Negative thinking: Negativity creates a dark aura that does not permit optimism to seep in. Such persons always have a jaundiced view of things, causing all sorts of problems.
6. Let go of compulsive thinking: Let us learn to avoid compulsive thinking and concentrate on the utility, efficacy and usefulness of it for long term relationships.
7. Seeking other’s approval: It kills your initiative and drive and makes you look small in the eyes of others. A state of inferiority complex sets in.
8. Let go of grudges: Keeping grudges is not only a bad habit; it is bad for one health and well being. Research indicates the close relationship with heart and mind, and it can cause serious health problems.
9. Let go of limiting beliefs: Some beliefs are self created and self imposed. One has to retrospect them to arrive at their utility. Just grasp the idea that everything you can imagine is real.
10. Let go of postponing things for tomorrow: Postponing things that need to be done today, rather than tomorrow is a laid back approach. Time and tide do not wait for any one. Doing it today rather than doing it next day is a wise dictum.
11. Let go of anxious thoughts: These thoughts are borne out of inbuilt fears and anxiety. Distract one goal and determination.
12. Let go of heart break: As our heart locks our mind, heart breaks do create a mental vacuum. We need to forget such incidents and move forward for a new inning.
13. Let go of bad memories: It is better to forget bad memories and keeping them at bay. Learn from them, don’t keep them locked in you. They can create an enormous damage in every sphere.
14. Let go of useless things: One must master the art of discarding useless things, including people. Art of Discarding, book by a Japanese author speaks about the importance of letting useless things go. The wording ‘useless’ explains it all.
15. Let go of bad company: “A man is known by the company he keeps” is a wise saying. As a rotten fruit spoil the rest in the basket, keeping bad company does the same. It takes away the sheen in the quality of friendship. We should appreciate various shades of friendship and choose shades judiciously. Throw all the negative people away , no matter how hard it is…
16. Let go of past: Let us learn to forget the bad experiences of the past and learn lessons from past mistakes and misadventures.
17. Let go of identifying with role: Identifying ourselves with a particular role limits our scope of work and we miss our identity. We will eventually become a typecast character. It is better to come out of this rut as quickly as possible.
18. Let go of taking things personally: Taking things personally to ones’ heart is a bad personality trait. It is counterproductive to one positive behavior and well being. It kills all the initiatives and drives.
19. Let go of the ticking clock: this can accumulate the biggest stress as it makes us slaves of the time we have. This devours one genuine freedom. Respect the time but not the ticking clock.
20. Let go of counterproductive habits: Those habits that distract or obstruct your productivity have to be let go of.
These are some of the most important factors that act as our mental barriers. Have a mental free barrier to reboot your life. It is a mental discipline to be cultivated and not a rocket science. The world will salute to those who learn to shake off these imaginary and reckless barriers faster than others.
If one is able to do so, he is expected to attain ultimate peace and reboot his life.

Education11 Steps To Motivate Yourself..... by Yusuf001(op): 9:19pm On Oct 29, 2017
Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other. ~ Carlos Castaneda
Motivation isn`t a one-size-fits-all thing. What works for you may not work for others, so the key is to pick what fits you better and use it over and over. The following are 11 techniques you can use when feeling down, or unmotivated. Pick the ones that resonate with you and try them.
HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF
1. Cut fear out of energy
Starting quickly is the key to getting lots of things done in a very short time. Mel Robbins calls it the 5-Second Rule and Grant Cardone calls it Starving Fear Out of Time. Regardless of the labels, you must train yourself to act fast despite any negative self-talk.
To learn this:
Pick a habit/skill that you want to build
Set a trigger
Commit to act as quick as possible once that trigger is on.
If you want to go to the gym, for instance, let your alarm clock be the trigger. Once you hear it, get dressed ASAP and leave the house. Once you`re invested, you`re less likely to get back. (Sometimes I search the hamper for the dirtiest t-shirt I can find and wear it for a minute so I`m either going to the gym or taking a cold shower… Don`t to that cheesy).
2. Don`t leave your mind alone
Talking loudly to yourself can distract your mind from negative thinking. One study found that
basketball players passed the ball faster when they motivated themselves through loud self-talk which was also seen by another study as a huge sign of sanity.
You can use affirmation to lift yourself in down times or simply state your goal out loud for several times as some people found that if you can beat procrastination by simply repeat the words: “Do it now” until you take action.
3. Shrink da Ting
Chunking down your scary goals into smaller ones will motivate you. If you want to lose 50 pounds, focus on the first ten, lose and celebrate them, and then move to the second ten. If you chunk down anything that scares you then nothing will stop you because there`s always some point, to begin with.
4. Self exposure
The key to self exposure is to realize that everything you do —good or bad— serves a reason. Ask any relationship coach and they`ll tell you that some people unconsciously overeat to reject themselves instead of getting rejected by a potential partner, whereas a woman may pick a fight with her boyfriend just to win back his attention.
Humans are so complicated, and you must understand your own hidden agendas to reach your peak. How? Through journaling.
5. Parkinson Law
Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion. – Parkinson Law
Sometimes you feel unmotivated when you look at how long it`ll take to finish a task. To avoid this, you can set shorter deadlines and challenge yourself to work as fast as you can so you can finish early and enjoy more rest time.
7. The Da Vinci Way
This was how Leonardo Da Vinci motivated himself to work. Instead of working on one project, he would jump from one to another so work feels less boring.
You can do this by changing your schedule so that, instead of working on a single project for three hours, you work on six projects, 30 minutes each. It won`t always be practical, but this can help survive when work feels like a burden.
7. The Hemingway Way
Anytime you feel hesitant, take the first step and leave. There`s a huge chance you`ll come to it later because humans are inclined to finish unfinished businesses.
Ernest Hemingway used this technique to write every day. He would leave a line or paragraph unfinished so the next day he feels motivated to work.
8. Go 10X
Set a big goal that challenges you and the thrill will motivate you. Aim for 30 sales calls/day instead of three and challenge yourself to write 100,000 words in a month instead of 30,000.
The key here is to realize that even if you fail, you will still do better at 10X than at one or 2X. You may not achieve the bigger goal, but your new results will always outperform the original goal.
9. Avoid the sad and the unlucky
This may sound harsh, yet it`s true. Many studies have found that the company you keep determines the type of life you will have. If you hang around healthy, funny, creative and financially successful people, there`s a big chance their positive traits will rub off on you without even realizing it.
10. Watch what you eat – Seriously
“Once you optimize your personal energy, all you need for success is luck.”
Eat as clean as possible. A poor diet will increase fatigue , reduce your energy levels and lower your productivity.
Exercising, eating healthy and getting enough sun exposure will make you more motivated more productive, more creative, more positive, more socially desirable, and more able to handle life’s little bumps.
11. Avoid the bushes
A tough job will become effortless if you first identify future obstacles and plan to override them. The difference between clarity and obscurity is like the difference between taking the highway and driving your car through clumps of bushes. The first will make you drive at full speed whereas the later will get you stuck.
What about you? What is one thing that you normally do to motivate yourself? You can share your comment in the comment section below
Sharing is caring!

PhonesThe Future Is Here With Esim by Yusuf001(op): 10:20am On Oct 14, 2017
What Is an eSIM and How Will It Make Our Lives Easier?

Lately, the term eSIM (embedded SIM) has been heard more often, since Google talked about eSIM support for their recently released smartphones, the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL . So, what exactly is an eSIM? How is it different from the normal SIM cards we all use in our phones? What exactly will it offer? And is it entirely new? Let’s find ou

What is eSIM?
The term “eSIM” relates to a new standard being promoted by the GSMA – the association that represents network operators worldwide. An eSIM (embedded Subscriber Identity Module) is an electronic SIM card, which will replace the physical, plastic SIM card that all current smartphones use with a virtual embedded equivalent that cannot be removed.
An eSIM is non-removable and sits by other internal components. You don’t have to remove it. It provides the same electrical interface as you would find on regular, micro, and nano cards.
How does an eSIM make our lives easier?
Bringing eSIM to mainstream could be beneficial for the manufacturers, carriers, and customers.
For customers, it would reduce the hassle of maintaining different SIM cards. How? Devices with support for eSIM feature an internal SIM card that’s attached to their motherboard. Hence, our smartphones will not need a physical SIM card to connect to cellular networks of different carriers. This would, in fact, save us from getting a new SIM card every time we port our number to a different carrier.
The information (network data that a standard SIM card carries) on an eSIM will be compliant or rewritable by all operators, meaning a user can switch between carriers with a simple phone call. Also, there will be no physical swapping of SIM card by the user.
Devices having an eSIM built-in can also save some space on the inside. Doing away with SIM cards will free up a fair amount of extra space inside a phone, allowing manufacturers to reduce device girth by replacing it with a diminutive embedded equivalent. This is also what makes it so well-suited to ultra-compact gadgets like watches, which simply don’t have the room for a normal SIM.
With space at an absolute premium in modern smartphones and every millimeter counting, the eSIM will help bring about even slimmer phones, as there won’t be any sim card slot.

is the concept of eSIM very new?
No. Apple actually offered us a glimpse at what eSIM integration might entail a while back. Apple enabled similar functionality on selected iPad models through their homegrown tech called Apple SIM.
The whole problem with the eSIM concept is the cooperation of all the various parties, including network operators and manufacturers. That’s where the GSMA’s new eSIM standard comes in.
GSMA started exploring the possibilities for software-based SIM cards as early as 2010. Samsung used the GSMA enabled eSIM on its Gear S2 Classic 3G that was launched in February 2016, while Apple used eSIM to add connectivity to the
Apple Watch Series 3 , which was announced in September 2017.
The initial version of the eSIM specification was limited to eSIM support on smartwatches, tablets, and fitness trackers. The second version brought support for almost any consumer device, including smartphones.
Google’s Pixel 2 smartphones are the first to use built-in eSIM technology. However, the eSIM support on Google Pixel 2 phones is currently limited to the subscribers of Google’s Project Fi. But you can still put your regular SIM card as there is a slot available.
It’s time to embrace the eSIM!

Over the years, i've heard the teachings of the bible on how Jesus had taught us on how to live a life that is pleasing unto God. Subsequent studying of the bible had lead me to uncover many things that has been disregarded.
The teachings of apostle Paul were different from that of the messiah and even contradicted some of the teachings and law of prophet Moses. And Jesus during his life time said, "for i have not come to change but to fulfil the law" of Moses.
I would be glad if anyone could help shed more light to this.
food for thought
