OWN BUSINESS OR A JOB???

         Although job is compulsory for every degree holder but what benefits more a person is a big debate. Going for a job means going for salivary and going for a business means a king or queen is creating something out of nothing. Being a creator is worthier than walking on an already existing path. Everyone knows the people work for money. Everyone wants limitless money although in job there is limited money but in business there is limitless money. People doing job get fixed salary and while own business holder earn handsome money. Then comes time issues with job people fix themselves with fix intervals while in business a person can work more or less enjoying flexible time. There are your own rules in your business and a businessman can develop many good rules for the prosperity of business because you are your own boss no one is there to ask anything while in job a person is restricted to follow rigid rules. There is retirement issue with job that is the point to think about but in business you don't have to face such issues because in your own business it’s up to you if you want to retire or not. A salaried person fails to have their own identity sometimes but when you are businessman then you have your own identity which makes you different from other world. Business doers never have to wait for holidays they can go on vacations anytime they want; but in job you have to wait for holidays or weekends to get break from work burden.In business, a person learn new things because you have more than one responsibilities which make you more active than a job holder. Businessman learns how to run a team to get best results and you can also learn how to satisfy clients. So own business is better than a job.

SOCIAL MEDIA AS SOCIAL DISASTER FOR YOUTH:

This piece of writing revolves around the impact of an excessive use of social media on youth without proper training. It will elaborate how social media without proper training is a disaster for youth particularly. The term social disaster actually describes the negative impact of social media on youth’s life.

Key terms used are, youth, social media, technology, (internet, face book, twitter, Instagram , Skype, changing’s in attitude.

 INTRODUCTION:

Pakistan is a resourceful country but unfortunately we are badly managed nation. Introduction of technology in  country Pakistan like without training is a social disaster. Technology is the use of science to invent useful things to solve problems to make communication easier technology introduced social media fortunately but this social media played a role of social disaster unfortunately in every individual’s life specifically the young generation named as youth. Access to internet is an opportunity but excessive use of internet is the cause for social disaster. Today’s youth is highly addicted to social media spending whole days on Facebook, twitter, Instagram etc. Searching on internet is useful when purpose is to study E Books, journals, articles but spending hours on useless chat, video calls is social disaster.

Social Disaster:

Social media as social disaster means the force that creates disturbance in society and disturb the norms and values of society. Youth who are highly addicted to social media are forgetting their family value system. Youth feel more comfortable in spending time on social media instead of sitting with family members. Family gatherings, sharing happiness’s and taking parts in sorrows are becoming less interesting and less attentive for the youth. Youth has found social media as a family and giving less attention to the real relations and family. A time will come where youth could feel frustration to enter into home under same roof because youth has started developing perception that everything is social media. They feel like social media is even a good friend of theirs.

Youth:

Here youth mean the youngsters who are school, college and university going students. Who are in a stage where training and counselling is important rather than giving free access to social media? This young youth is immaturely using a very mature technology. In real terms this social media is using our youth.

Changing attitude:

Relationship with a living and none living thing both influence the interacted person either in a positively or in a negative manner. Talking about youth’s interaction with social media; it is changing the attitude of our youth in a negative way. Youth don’t have time to eat study and spare time with family members properly. This will develop a gap between parents and youth there will be less understanding. Occurrences of such Changing’ in youth’s behavior is a social disaster  

LITERATURE REVIEW:

Dynamic new time-diary data identify when and where Internet use impacts face-to-face interactions. Internet use at home has a strong negative impact on time spent with friends and family as well as time spent on social activities, but Internet use at work has no such effect. Similarly, Internet use during weekend days is more strongly related to decreased time spent with friends and family and on social activities than Internet use during weekdays (NORMAN H. NIE D. SUNSHINE HILLYGUS).

The hypothesis is quite simple: the Internet has created a shift in people’s time allocation. The more time they sit in front of a computer screen, the less time they have for interacting directly with family and friends. This “displacement” model holds that time on one activity simply cannot be spent on another activity, since time is a zero-sum phenomenon. Because there are only 24 hours in a day, time spent on one activity must often be traded off against time spent on other activities. Like any activity, time online fundamentally competes with, rather than complements, face-to-face social time (NORMAN H. NIE D. SUNSHINE.

CONCLUSION:

The styles differ when controlling for parent gender, educational background and age. Parenting styles are also linked to level of parent Internet usage, Internet attitude and Internet experience. Parenting styles also significantly affect child Internet usage. The highest child usage level is perceived when parents adopt a permissive parenting style; the lowest level is observed when parents adopt an authoritarian Internet parenting style. The variables Internet parenting style, parent Internet behavior, and parent educational background significantly predict Internet usage of children at home.

 Social media is using our youth and our youth is unable to use social media properly. Until and unless a proper training is not given to youth they will not be career oriented will just move randomly in fantasy. Question is How to train youth although purchase of social media is their own choice? 

Does a social medium use us or do we use it?

I was very happy with social media at the very beginning and it’s a matter 2007 when I started using orkut.com to connect with friends. I started sign in twice a day then thrice a day and a time occur when I started using it so frequently that even I forgot to eat and drink. I stopped moving towards books and homework’s and a time came when I stopped even sleeping without realizing that the orkut that actually i consider my friend is not so in reality. I was with a perception that I am using social media couldn’t know that actually this orkut is using me. It’s controlling my life style and all the good behaviours that I posses. The social networks were necessary evil, and as such, they must be managed, just like every other distraction in our lives. I still have my days when I find myself aimlessly surfing Face book, looking at what people are doing getting into conversations, playing. I allot time in my day to look at my social networks, but I allot much more time in my day to read. And most importantly, I have that sacred four hour stretch—twelve to four, five days a week—that is dedicated to nothing but putting words on paper. Then I quit and tried to avoid it but I came to know about face book that initially made me avoid facing my own books. The modified social media inform of face book was more attractive than orkut even. I experienced same things wastage of time, moving away from books. Then again I quit from face book. After some time again I login into face book and found it so useful that I got admission in a prestige university from an AD on face book. I realized that since 2007 when I started using social media this social media was using me. Was distracting I from being a good person diverted my mind from studies and daily routine but then I managed with face book. Today for me social media marketing is the “next big thing,” a temporary yet powerful fad that must be taken advantage of while it’s still in the spotlight. To others, it’s a buzzword with no practical advantages and a steep, complicated learning curve.
