We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Final Overview
Freelance Employment: A freelancer is
someone who doesn’t work for one company
full-time, but is hired by verious companies for
certain projects. For example, a magazine or
website will have a core team of editors who
hire freelance writers to write articles, or a TV
production crew might hire freelance
cameramen to work on one series of
programmes.
Advantages of freelancing: Choose your
work. Being a freelancer means you don’t
have a boss so you can say ‘no’ to jobs you
don’t want. You might also get to work at
home for specific projects (as long as your
work is delivered to the deadline most clients
won’t mind how and when you do it) not
having to work normal office hours.
-Better pay. Freelancers can negotiate their
own rates with the clients who hire them.
Companies are often prepared to pay
freelancers a better rate than their own staff
because they don’t have to pay for things like
sick leave as part of the contract. The more
experience you have then the more money
you can ask for.

ncing-in-the-media
Company Employment: Company
employment usually consists of working
40 hour weeks plus weekends
(depending on the media company
chosen) to create content for the
company clients and third party
associates. Unlike freelancing employee
work provides sick pay and holidays and
specific criterias on what content to create
for the client, you also have company
term and conditions that you would need
to follow working in media sectors.
Expectations:
-Long and unsociable hours
-Opportunities to work away from home or
abroad, such as when filming on location
or covering foreign affairs as a journalist
-An average graduate starting salary of
£31,500 at major employers (salary vary
on contract)
