Remote Access on Windows 8.1

For those of you who are facing the heat in doing even the smallest of tasks in Win 8.1 and somehow still refuse to switch back to Win 7 (like me) , hang in there! Soo, recently I tried to share my Laptop's Remote Access with a friend and experienced several glitches, so here's what worked for me:

  1. Go to Control Panel, (in Category view)
  2. Click on System and Security
  3. Go to Windows Firewall, click on "Allow an app through Windows Firewall". Tick on:             
             *Remote Assistance
             
*Remote Service Management
             *Windows Remote Management
     4.  Go to System in System and Security
     5.  Click on Allow Remote Access.

There you go, Rest of it is easy-peasy.

Deepika Padukone on Her Battle With Depression

This moving interview with India's much loved starlet: Deepika Padukone is very moving and worth a share. Another reason to love this talented young woman. I am sure many people would identify with it and come forward to face the stigma. The statistics are alarming: apparently 36% of India is depressed. The highlight of the discussion is that there is no shame in seeking help, as its just another ailment. Also another point that striked me was that when kept in dark, depressed people can go on living their life with this burden, with hard and harder days and never go on to hit their full potential at all.
 Here's hoping each one of you take something away from this interview and under the transformational change that lifts you to the best version of yourself.

Know Yourself

To some of us answers come easily as things fall into their place and the Jigsaw makes sense soon enough. Others need a tiny nudge to clear the haze in the road and figure out the path to embark on. Its a good thing that there are geeks out there, who're committed to make life easier for others. Myer & Briggs did us a similar favor: "MBTI Test" I always thought of myself us an out and out 'Extrovert' but then started questioning my judgement when I noticed traits contrasting my beliefs. Myer & Briggs have come out with an instrument to classify individuals into 16 personality types based on:

  •  Extroversion Vs Introversion
  •  Feeling Vs Thinking
  •  Perceptive Vs Judging
  •  Intuition Vs Sensing

This test not only helps us identify our personality, but also helps us identify the type of career we'd excel in. So if you're confused (as I was) then be sure to check this test out before you start googling Career Counselors near you!


You can take the test here:
