Slowdown Blues Let S Beat It

It is that time of the, where negative news pervades all over the world, including India, China and many European and Western nations as well. The most dreaded word, slowdown now is more heard and seen, both in the media, and through the Chinese whispers, and the annals of any organisation worth its size and name! So, how do we look at the future, and are we ready for tough times? How long is such a situation going to last? And is this for real, or are the media and the trail of negative news all over affecting the mood, and also exaggerating how bad things are, than they could be in reality. Whatever be the reality, the moment we are faced with a situation, it’s like a huge thunderbolt hit us. More than what in reality has happened – owing to external circumstances, and extraneous factors, what takes a toll is the way once reacts, when faced with a slowdown. This e-book is meant to be a good and thought helping companion when you think you are being bogged down by things like an impending slowdown or job loss, or anything similar. You are down, but that’s because of anything else BUT you – a host of factors not in anybody’s control. While there is nothing much you can do on the extraneous factors, what you can do, is to make use of the interregnum as a kind of platform for re-launching and rediscovering you, in every manner possible. The book is intended, not only for those who are in the midst of such an event, but also to everyone who wishes to be mentally prepared, just in case they are in any part of the globe, and are likely to be impacted by a slowdown. Not much has been written as to how the softer side of a slowdown situation is to be handled on the personal front. The pages of this book are meant to mentally prepare individuals, equip them to handle slowdown or pink-slips with grace, and face life with more confidence and renewed vigour, and make them more able and agile in handling the harsh reality of tough times in life, just in case. Read on. Let’s beat down the slow-down.

A Rolling Stone-Kirkus Best Music Book of 2020 The definitive account of pop music in the mid-eighties, from Prince and Madonna to the underground hip-hop, indie rock, and club scenes Everybody knows the hits of 1984 - pop music's greatest year. From "Thriller" to "Purple Rain," "Hello" to "Against All Odds," "What's Love Got to Do with It" to "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," these iconic songs continue to dominate advertising, karaoke nights, and the soundtracks for film classics (Boogie Nights) and TV hits (Stranger Things). But the story of that thrilling, turbulent time, an era when Top 40 radio was both the leading edge of popular culture and a moral battleground, has never been told with the full detail it deserves - until now. Can't Slow Down is the definitive portrait of the exploding world of mid-eighties pop and the time it defined, from Cold War anxiety to the home-computer revolution. Big acts like Michael Jackson (Thriller), Prince (Purple Rain), Madonna (Like a Virgin), Bruce Springsteen (Born in the U.S.A.), and George Michael (Wham!'s Make It Big) rubbed shoulders with the stars of the fermenting scenes of hip-hop, indie rock, and club music. Rigorously researched, mapping the entire terrain of American pop, with crucial side trips to the UK and Jamaica, from the biz to the stars to the upstarts and beyond, Can't Slow Down is a vivid journey to the very moment when pop was remaking itself, and the culture at large - one hit at a time.
