Introduction
Proper preparation is the key to success for every endeavour. Every action of man that is not planned is bound to fail. Even great generals spend sleepless nights thinking over their army’s disposition.
Thus, a research paper presentation will not be a success unless it is well planned beforehand.
Planning a paper presentation
A good research paper must include the following:
The title of the research paper;
The major problems of the research paper ( based on your thesis statement) i.e Statement of the problem;
A brief description of the methods and the issues from the research paper;
The results and your evaluation of the work (whether you have managed to reach the main purposes of the work)
Steps in paper presentation
Step (i) : Selection of the TOPIC
The first Step is that you should decide the Topic of your Interest..
As I’m from the field of Information Technology (Combination Of Computers and Communication), the topics/themes I would research on are
Step (ii) : Researching
Research about the topics which you have chosen. That is, get all the information about the topic from the core of it to the latest trend in it…
There are various sources of searching. See the links below for the search:
Google
Wikipedia
Answers.com
After the extensive literature search, you will have an instinct or the spirit of innovation…… By then, you should be able to create a new idea of yours in the field..
There are two types of papers: either the presentation of your own idea (originality) that is, your own research or innovation…… The second is the review of the latest innovations and the way to improve it… The first one is the best, go for the second type only if you don’t get the innovative idea.
Step (iii) : Abstract Preparation
Prepare an ABSTRACT of the idea…
The format for the abstract is:
Font - Times New Roman
Font size - 12pt
Line Spacing 1.5pt
All margins - 1"
Text Alignment - Justified
The abstract should not be longer than one page (i.e) approx:300-450 words.
Remember that your abstract must outline the following very clearly:
Objectives
Methodology
Major outcomes expected
Practical implication
Step (v) : Preparation of Paper
This is the most important time consuming and difficult step. Your paper should be prepared i such a way that it should consists all the things sorted in the following order..
Title
Introduction
Objectives
Review of Literature
Methodology
Findings and Analysis
Conclusions
Implication/Application
Limitations
References/Bibliography
Should not be more than 3500 words including references/bibliography.
The process of research paper writing ends up with presenting the results of the work completed. Research paper presentation is the process of presenting the research papers to the audience. to be contd

motivating यौर self
Regardless of if you need help at work, or within every day life, or you are looking to challenge yourself to attempt something new, we can all use a little bit of self-discipline, motivation, and a firm set of written goals. Motivating yourself is the principle that pushes you towards your targets.
The first rule for motivating yourself is to keep believing in your ideals. Without any dreams, you will not have the mental picture that is necessary to reach these goals. With inspiration, you will need to have a defined level of self-discipline to make sure that you are putting all the tools to use that is needed to reach the level of success you desire and make your dreams become a reality.
Journaling and/or having written verification of your goals is one of the first stages when developing motivation, self discipline, and confidence.
Visualization also plays a significant role in reaching success. Inspiration, self-discipline, and goal setting work side by side, but once you visualize yourself reaching your success this can help produce the likeness of your final objective. By picturing yourself in the situation that you are aiming for can help you believe that your dreams are achievable.
If you just note down your dreams, ambitions, and personal ideals and make a sensible plan, it will help you to attain them. However, in visualizing the desired position which you wish to get to will help support you. This will also help to conquer pessimistic thoughts, fears, and generate the beliefs that you can become a success.
Understanding and defining what your individual goals are is important to guarantee that your motivation, self-discipline, and goals are in order. Some people tend to set unrealistic goals that are based on another's success. While determining your own goals, keep in mind what is realistic and simple to achieve for yourself, and not after another person who you think is better off.
By focusing on another person's success you are asking to fail. Observe your life, soul, and circumstances and craft goals founded on those. You will then uncover the motivation to make your own dreams become a reality.

I Ask, You Answer: Advice for Your Younger Self
The idea is to give you a chance to share your knowledge with the rest of the world — and to give you the opportunity to see what your fellow readers are doing!This question is :Knowing what you know today, what advice would you offer to your younger self 5, 10, or 20 years ago? Let us know your answer in the comments.
Three Basic Steps to Get Your Desire with the Least Effort
How can we get what we want? The book Simpleology contains five laws to help you get what you want:
The Law of Straight Lines: The shortest path between two points is a straight line. If you want to get a particular result, take the fastest and most direct route. Don’t add any extra steps.
The Law of Clear Vision: In order to hit a target, you need to see it clearly. You must have a clear vision of exactly what you want in order to get it.
The Law of Focused Attention: In order to hit a target, you must focus sufficient attention on it until you hit it.
The Law of Focused Energy: In order to accomplish something you must focus sufficient energy on it until you have done so.
The Inescapability of Action/Reaction: There are two things from which you can never escape: action and reaction.
All these laws are useful. After spending some time to ponder them, I think we can summarize them into three basic steps you should do to get your desire with the least effort:
1. Know exactly what you want
While I’m sure most of us have an idea about what we want, I don’t think many of us know exactly what we want. For instance, if you want to have your own business, do you know what kind of business you want to build? How will it look - in detail - several years from now?
To know exactly what we want, a helpful practice is visualization. We should visualize the situation we want to achieve. Imagine how it looks, how it sounds, and how people’s life is changed by it.
Knowing exactly what you want will help you determine whether or not something you encounter could help you. If you don’t know what you want, it is much easier to get distracted by irrelevant things along the way. But if you know exactly what you want, you will see clearly whether or not something is relevant.
2. Always follow a straight line
Do only the things that bring you closer to your destination. Do not waste your time to do extra things which will make it longer to reach your goal.
There might be things you do, perhaps even daily, that take you away from your goal
This, unfortunately, is easier said than done. Without realizing it, you might have some habits which do not bring you closer to your goal. There might be things you do, perhaps even daily, that take you away from your goal. They make you follow a curved line instead of a straight one.
For instance, maybe your goal is increasing the amount of your saving by, say, 100%. However, you still spend $5 daily to get your favorite coffee and snack. If we assume that there are 30 days a month, $5 daily will become $150 a month and $1800 a year, a substantial amount. As you can see, this habit doesn’t help you reach your goal.
So, in whatever you do, it is wise to ask: "Is it a straight line?" And when the answer is no, you should stop doing it.
3. Sharpen your saw
While doing things which brings you closer to your goal is important, you will waste a lot of time and energy if you do not do them with a "sharp saw". It’s dangerous to be busy; we may work too hard trying to make things happen without realizing that our saw has become blunt. In such situation we could work very hard but accomplish very little. You might then be surprised when someone else - who seem to work less than you do - surpass your achievements.
A good way to know whether or not you have a sharp saw is by watching yourself. Can you accomplish much in a given amount of time? Does your creativity flow well? Are you now in - or close to - your peak performance?
If the answer is no, then you need to sharpen your saw. The action you should take depends on your situation. Perhaps you need to take some time away from your work, or perhaps you need to learn a new tool. Examine your situation, and do what it takes to bring you back to peak performance. The time investment to sharpen your saw is well worth it. With a sharp saw, you will be able to achieve more with less time and energy.

How to stay confident and positive.....
For those people who have never been involved in starting a business or running a business, becoming self employed will seem like a rather daunting situation. Indeed those people who are currently employed will also hear of negativity and denial from employees and indeed colleagues. People will have concerns over their short term incomes, over the risks involved in setting up a business, or indeed will have concerns over the possibility of failure. And much of this negativity will be generated by colleagues, employers or even family around you.
This was of course a concern of mine.And more notably, I also find that there are times that these concerns over risk and failure attack me over and over again.
As I've mentioned previously, my initial inspiration for improving my life was from Steve Pavlina's website, a website which gives away free premium content that will inspire most. Reading Steve's website, and similar websites which I then found as a result, gave me the confidence required to believe that I could achieve all of the goals which I have set. I felt full of motivation to achieve everything I wanted, one of which was to become self employed and hence time independent. However, doubts were raised by others around me, and I suddenly found myself worrying about risk and failure in just a couple of days.
Fortunately, it didn't take me long to realise how to stay confident and motivated. You'll notice that there is a consistent theme in a number of similar personal development and entrepreneur blogs and websites. That's because the people who write these blogs are of similar mindset - they understand the value of being an entrepreneur and possess a certain entrepreneurial spirit. They are positive and motivated and convinced not only that they will succeed but also that like minded people will succeed alongside them.
I suppose the message is therefore to ensure that you are surrounded by these like-minded entrepreneurs. These people will never tell you that you might fail, but will fill you with confidence that you will succeed.
Take it from me, if you truly want to succeed at your goals, then you will achieve them.
