Faster than expected - HyperLoop


hyperloopconcept.jpg

         



Whenever something comes into the market there is this one thing that let the occurrence and that is nothing but “Requirement or need”. Hyperloop is such one development in the industry of science and technology which dealt with the requirements.

Where it was started?

In year 2012, the renowned innovator Elon Musk released its first version which tells that some people will be travelling in capsules running on air bearings driven by motors and air compressors.
Like a spark, this ignites many minds and in year 2013, a paper on this concept was published which creates an idea of a hyperloop system that would propel passengers along the 350-mile (560 km) route at an average speed of around 600 mph (970 km/h), with a top speed of 760 mph (1,200 km/h), allowing for a travel time of 35 minutes, which is considerably faster than current rail or air travel times and after so many efforts from commercial companies and dozens of student teams,  on January 29, 2017, approximately one year after winning phase one of the Hyperloop pod competition, the MIT Hyperloop pod demonstrated the first ever low-pressure Hyperloop run in the world [credits : Wikipedia].
Oh, didn’t i tell you Why Hyperloop ?
Because it is fast, cheaper(after some initial phase, probably), safer, efficient, quiet. In short, it is WOW.
You will come to know why i am saying this, bear with me :D


So, what is this buzzword?




Because no one else can tell you better than Hyperloop One


Who is working on it?


Hyperloop one and Hyperloop transportation technologies are the two main leaders in this field for now, also some support is backed up by the addition of Arrivo chaired by ex-Hyperloop One CTO and ex-SpaceX engineer Brogan BamBrogan.
It doesn't ends here, Elon Musk runs a Hyperloop Challenge, where he welcomes students to his Hyperloop test lab in his SpaceX facility in Las Vegas.  .
This global challenge invites people from around the world to make a comprehensive commercial, or transport or can be economic related for their cities, regions or even countries which can be considered to host the first hyperloop networks. It’s not an engineering competition, they say : “we bring technology, you tell us how it should be used in your location”.
I hope you must be thinking when can i have one ride in this, but the answer is little disappointing, “we are really not sure” , But don’t be sad Musk track record of getting things done gives a ray of light to the Hyperloop project.
Hyperloop One lists a projected date of 2021 on its website for having “three production systems”, although what that means in terms of working transport is unclear. Hyperloop One chief executive Rob Lloyd has claimed that, following an agreement with Dubai, “from a technological point of view, we could have a Hyperloop One system built in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the next five years”.  So let's hope for the best and maybe some day a ride in hyper wouldn't be just a dream.

Importance of Coaching and Being Coachable


Its been almost 4 months of Internity, and we are ready to launch with Internship in June. We have been getting calls and messages from our dear fellows as how different is this internship,
will we be benefited out of it etc. Back of my mind, a thought always strikes, we are new in this field which already is on its maturity with various sources of learning available online and offline.
All these questions become very valid ones, and obviously all those who've joined us will be having a huge trust on us. So this blog brings an aspect of Internity offerings to provide a life altering experience to our interns.

Internity believes in coaching model, and hence internship is an offering to bring forth the importance of coaching and how being coachable can transform lives of our young fellows.





Two days ago, a movie got released on a man's life who united the entire nation with his game. 'Sachin - A Billion Dreams'. We all know the great man, and the miracles he did.
He too thanked his coach Ramakant Achrekar for all the practice in structure and environment he provided to him. We also saw 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag', where Milkha Singh even after having so many
achievments worked with his coach till the end. Even in our holy books, there is a saying that a Coach(Guru) has a highest stature in a person's life.

Now, you all must be wondering why coaching model in internship, when so many learning sources are available with classroom offerings, online tutorials etc. Effective Learning requires a structure, 
Our internship provides a structured learning so that an intern generates an efficient output, and our coaching model provides that same structure to the interns, where every intern is
having a coach.

A coaching model is one of the best mechanism of effective and transformative learning, where a coach makes his student to inquire on why, what & how? analogy, by providing an environment to 
the student to play fullout, so that the best effort can be generated. A coach can alter lives of people he's coaching, like Gary Kirsten provided coaching to Indian Cricket Team
and took them to No. 1 spot in all formats of the game. A coach is not one who gives solutions, he lets you inquire deep into the problem and make you generate the solution for that problem
by providing scenarios. 

As we all know that for making things work a two way approach is required, so even though coaches are important, for interns, Being Coachable is most important to get the best out of 
coaching model. Being Coachable only means 'Doing what your coach says to do'. Sachin Tendulkar, Milkha Singh, Usain Bolt all were coachable and hence caused miracles, they did what their
coach asked them to do. At times, there will be regrets, complaints etc. due to the work, but its all for your betterment, coaches only have a commitment to transform your life.

Few days ago, I came across a video where a speaker was talking about Mental Strength and Self-Belief. A coach is a commited listener who enhances self-belief and mental strength. 
At the same time, being coachable brings this into our life and this makes us unstoppable.

I know it is getting a bit longer, but I want to ask a query, as why do all goverment leaders, organisations, NGO's have advisory boards?
Just to bring their work into the structure, these advisors are like coaches to coach on where things are lagging. 


You can now count on us, we are providing a 'Tried and Tested' approach.

Want to experience, Join us..!!

Till then Happy Reading..!!

THE PURSUIT OF PASSION

Dear Readers,

 Have you ever contemplated, what will you doing when you come out of your education? Have you ever thought about what your passion for life is? Or have you sacrificed your innate desire for want of a more “settled” life ahead because you have responsibilities of your family on your shoulders? Whatever the case may be, a cursory look into the most successful people in the world tells us that no one can do wonders unless he is passionate about what he is doing. Now in this Blog we are going to talk about Why, What and How to Pursue your passion.

Why To Pursue Your Passion?

“Don’t worry about what the world needs.  Ask what makes you come alive and do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” ~Howard Thurman

If the quote above isn’t enough we are going to tell you here why you should pursue your desired passion,

Working for money may seem to be a good enough reason for someone to keep their career but it doesn’t come anywhere near to working for Happiness.

By following your passion, you can always relate to what you are doing and come up with better ideas every day.

You can escape the endless cycle of misery because nothing would feel like as if it is forced upon you.

When you really enjoy what you do, no obstacle will stop you from achieving success.

Last but not the least, you are going to invest a large portion of your lives into your jobs and careers, maybe do something that gives you contentment as well.


What To Do Pursue Your Passion?

Now after deciding Why, the next step is What to do to pursue your passion.

Do your complete homework. Be informed about the current market condition of employment, organizations, and typical path to employment in the field of your respective field of passion.

Before kissing goodbye to your current “comfort zone”, make sure to network yourself well in the field of your interest. Assemble a robust professional network beforehand.

Gather thorough knowledge about your field of interest.

If you don’t want to go into the realm of insanity frankly, keep a contingency plan ready.

How To Pursue Your Passion.

In this section, we’ll focus on how to convert above points into reality.

With all the knowledge you have gathered and homework you have done, chalk out a rough blueprint.

Internships can be a great opportunity to attain real life experience in the field of your interest. And for those of you who belong to CS/IT, we are currently providing internships in various fields, for more information click on the following link- https://goo.gl/HhZv4t.

Create a circle of people who share your passion for constant motivation and improvements.

Start meeting people, attending events, reading blogs and subscribe to industry publications early.

Be Patient, success doesn’t come straightaway you have to toil hard and consistently for results to be visible.

There will come the lowest points during the entire exercise. Ultimately how you handle these moments will ultimately determine your success.

Lastly, appreciate that you are getting a chance to live your dream that million others don’t. Make a steely resolve and overcome every obstacle that might come your way.

Hope you had a fruitful reading session. Will catch you soon.
