Psychology suggests that healthy motivation is not about forcing everyone to create a huge ambition.

Most Important Thing Is To Get The Right People: Steve Waugh On Building Amsterdam Flames From Scratch

European T20 Premier League: Former Australia captain Steve Waugh is embracing a new challenge in T20 cricket as co-owner of the Amsterdam Flames, with the inaugural European T20 Premier League set to begin and the Australian great keen to see how a franchise built from the ground up performs in its first season. Waugh, who is experiencing the franchise side of T20 cricket from close quarters for the first time, said the process of putting together the Amsterdam-based side has reinforced the importance of having the right personnel, structure and preparation in place. It's fascinating for me to be involved in T20 cricket. I haven't really been up close and personal to it before. And I'm looking at the way the guys are training, and their tactics and the execution of their practices is really great to watch. So, I'm really enjoying it. But yeah, building a franchise is similar to building any team. You've got to get the right people. You've got to get the right structure. You've got to have a formulated plan. Preparation is really important. The most important thing is to get the right people. And so, that's what we really concentrated on when we built the team, the Amsterdam Flames, from scratch. We wanted people with good character, people who could work together. But obviously, you need talent as well. So, if you get all those things coming together with good management, then there's a chance of being successful, Waugh told JioStar. For Waugh, the appeal of the project extends beyond the opportunity to work with established international names. The Flames squad includes the likes of Steve Smith, Tim David and Ajinkya Rahane, but it is the prospect of lesser-known players making their mark that has particularly caught his attention. This is the first season, so it's very important to get the first season established and for it to be successful. There's some amazing cricket players here, and I've no doubt that the cricket that is going to be played will be of a high standard. So, I think it's got a huge chance of being successful. You'll see some superstars emerge. I'm just watching a young Canadian opening batsman hit the ball unbelievably well, and he's ready to showcase his skills on the world stage. That's what excites me. You have players of the calibre in our team, of the likes of Steve Smith, Tim David and Ajinkya Rahane, and then they're playing alongside these relatively unknown players from the rest of the world. They're going to be fast-tracking their progress. They'll have a blueprint for success. And you're going to see some names come out of this tournament that you've never heard before, but they're going to be potential superstars, Waugh added. The inaugural ETPL will provide a new platform for players from established cricketing nations to share a dressing room with emerging talent from less-established cricketing countries. Waugh believes that interaction could become one of the tournament's defining features. For the Amsterdam Flames, the immediate priority will be establishing a competitive identity and creating an environment in which experienced players can help develop those still seeking recognition on the international stage. The inaugural ETPL will provide a new platform for players from established cricketing nations to share a dressing room with emerging talent from less-established cricketing countries. Waugh believes that interaction could become one of the tournament's defining features. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories With the ETPL entering uncharted territory in its maiden season, Waugh sees the competition as a potential launching pad for a new generation of T20 cricketers, players who could emerge from relative obscurity and use the tournament as their first major step towards the global stage.

'People Feel Looted': Opposition unites against Govt's power tariff hike

Srinagar, Aug 24: Opposition parties in Jammu and Kashmir on Monday came out in unison against the government's decision to hike electricity tariffs, with Apni Party and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) staging separate protests across Srinagar, demanding an immediate rollback of the 6.83 percent increase for 202627. Apni Party leaders and workers gathered at Press Colony, led by Provincial President Mohammad Ashraf Mir. Police prevented the protesters from taking out a procession, but they raised slogans against the government, denouncing the decision as anti-people. Meanwhile, PDP General Secretary Mohammad Khursheed Alam led a separate demonstration, joined by senior leaders including former Minister Asiya Naqash, Anjum Fazili, Iqbal Tramboo, and a large number of party workers. Addressing the media, Mir criticised the government for adding to the financial hardship of ordinary citizens. It is unfortunate that, despite being fully aware that people are already facing severe financial hardships due to growing unemployment, shrinking business opportunities and rising inflation, the government has chosen to increase power tariffs. This additional burden is simply not tolerable, Mir said. He also slammed the government for failing to fulfill its electoral promises. The ruling party had promised 200 units of free electricity and free gas cylinders to every household. Instead of keeping these promises, the government has now put an additional burden on the people, he added. PDP General Secretary Khursheed Alam echoed similar sentiments, saying people's trust in the government had been betrayed. People voted for this government with the hope of relief, but today they feel looted by rising tariffs and increasing costs. At a time when families are struggling with inflation and unemployment, increasing electricity tariffs is completely unjustified, Alam said. Former Minister Asiya Naqash said the tariff hike would disproportionately affect poor and middle-class families. Electricity is a basic necessity. This decision should be rolled back immediately, she demanded. PDP spokesperson Mohammad Iqbal Tramboo said the hike reflected the government's failure to address consumers' concerns, while party leader Arif Laigroo called for improving power supply and reducing wastage instead of imposing additional burdens.

Philosophy says people who watch content while eating instead of having a screen-free meal may experience everyday pleasures differently

Philosophy suggests that people who watch videos or other content while eating may experience the pleasure of food differently because their attention is divided between the meal and the screen. Aristotles ideas about pleasure, attention and competing activities offer a way to understand this everyday habit, while modern research suggests that screen use during meals can also influence eating behaviour.
