    We have the biggest example of self-love and knowing your worth, and it's in the form of an 'extremely attractive' model.
    Luna Benna, a model from the US, recently got a lot of attention online after sharing all the problems she had to face while trying to make an account on Tinder. 
    However, she says that she got banned from the dating app because she was just 'too hot' for Tinder.

    It all started back in 2017 when like almost every single person, Luna decided to join Tinder hoping to meet new people. As anyone would expect, she straight away had a bunch of matches, way more than an average person would get. 
    Explaining her Tinder journey, she said, "I was young, dumb and... looking for love. I received so many odd and silly messages during my time on Tinder. People offering me vacations, proposing to me, even offering money if I agreed to meet up with them. I never actually went through with that one, by the way."

    She went on to explain that even though she didn't end up meeting almost all of her matches, she has some bizarre experiences.  
    "I definitely matched with people I liked. Did lots and lots of texting and FaceTiming, phone calls - the whole thing. Although I only actually ever met up with a couple of people from Tinder. One was a super awkward experience - the dude said my presence was so powerful it made him uncomfortable. He said it honest-to-god temporarily paralyzed him and he'd never met a woman like me before. We didn't have much in common and the vibe got weird after that." 
    Imagine having this much power, good for her.

    But, soon after, she started facing problems. Since she was such an 'attractive' and a popular person on the app, soon copycats started cropping up. She got kicked off the app because a lot of people tried to catfish with her pictures and Tinder couldn't tell real from the fake. 
    She said, "From time to time, people would threaten me on Tinder for being too good-looking. People were stealing my photos and making money using my images. Catfishing, basically. It's really disappointing when people create fake profiles after stealing my images - it's sad for the person behind the image, and sad for the person who gets catfished."

    But, there is a happy ending after all. She did end up meeting her significant other through the app before she got kicked off and they seem to be going strong till now. 
    She said, "I met my new guy, my current significant other, on Tinder, just before the ban. He picked me up and we went back to his place for dinner. We had such a fun time, didn't want it to end! So we started seeing each other more and more and noticed we had similar goals and motives. We're pretty much a power couple."

    All I can say to her is more power to you!

    I’m not going to lie, when I started playing Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, I assumed that it would be the same game as Odyssey with very few changes. However, to my surprise, the game is probably the best in the series yet and has enough innovation to make you want to play the game for hours, days or even months. 
    Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a melting pot of everything we like from the previous games, refined further and then combined together to create one of the best RPGs Ubisoft has ever made. The game not only refines what the franchise has done right in the past, but it has also taken influence from games like Breath of The Wild, God of War and The Witcher 3. 
    While there are some changes in the game, it still retains some of the elements we’ve been familiar with from the first game. It’s got a historical setting, features the iconic ‘Leap of Faith’ animation, synchronisation points, the hidden blade, crowd blending amongst other mechanics familiar to the franchise. It’s a culmination of everything we love about the Assassin’s Creed franchise while adding new systems that are meaningful and logical.

    You soon start building up your settlement alongside your longhouse by gathering resources and raiding. In fact, raiding is probably the most intriguing feature of this game that yields in resources, loot and treasure for your settlement and character. The Norse people were known in history for raiding, pillaging and looting the English land to grow their own influence in the region. The game gives a historic nod to these activities by directly translating it into an activity you can do in the game. You travel in a longboat along the shores of rivers and find these settlements to raid for your settlement’s benefit.

    Sooner or later, you will face stronger enemies who don’t get easily stunned by parries and you will need to adjust your combat style to take them down. Oh, I almost forgot to mention, you can dismember enemies that have been brilliantly depicted with blood and gore. You can turn it off in the settings if you aren’t a fan, but I genuinely loved that the game did not shy away from gore this time around.

    To complement your combat, the game also provides you with skills and abilities which are now revamped and some of the best systems we’ve seen in an RPG. For starters, you will come across a skill tree which is quite expansive. These skills are passive upgrades for your character that improves stats for melee, ranged and stealth attacks. Similarly, the game also offers abilities that you have to find in the world instead of unlocking them in a skill tree.

    The game also pays heavy focus on exploration where you need to find treasures, abilities, silver, loot and collectables in the game. Even the longboat in this game is used mainly for exploration and transportation. You will use your longboat to traverse a network of rivers throughout England and it plays an integral part for almost everything you do in the game. Since the game is heavily focused on exploration, you get to visit four key locations i.e. Norway, England and two others we aren’t allowed to talk about. The world map is very expansive and it has enough interesting locations for people to explore. In fact, if you see something interesting from afar, you will most probably find something interesting there to discover in a hidden cave or behind a collapsable wall.

    One of the greatest leaders on the cricket field, a stylish left-handed batsman, a well-respected commentator and now, an influential cricket administrator, Sourav Ganguly has been seen donning many hats over the years.
    While his on-field exploits earned him plaudits from pundits and even opposition players, his honest opinion in the commentary box made him a fan-favourite. And, these days, Ganguly is carrying the baton for Indian cricket in his new role as an administrator with the same passion and vigour.

    Ever since taking over the reins as the new president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) last year, the 48-year-old has taken key decisions in a bid to improve the cricketing structure in the country. The most recent example of his contributions as BCCI president is undeniably the success of the thirteenth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

    Amid the global pandemic, sponsorship troubles and logistical headaches, the Indian cricket board undoubtedly pulled off a miracle to organise the 2020 edition of the IPL in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). If organising the tournament out of India was a problem, the fact that as many as 13 cases of COVID-19 emerged at the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) camp further posed challenges for the BCCI.

    But, the Indian cricket board, with Ganguly at the helm of affairs, executed the entire operation with near perfection. That's one of the major reasons why players, franchise owners and fans could enjoy the season as one of the most gripping editions over the years. 

    The season finale too seemed befitting as Mumbai Indians (MI), arguably the tournament's best team, triumphed over Delhi Capitals (DC).
    Congrats to the @BCCI @SGanguly99 and all the @IPL staff and players on making this season another huge success ! A massive thanks to the players for the sacrifices they have made. Congrats to the @mipaltan on the victory & well done to the @DelhiCapitals on a great season too ! pic.twitter.com/CauLkXx1V2
    — Shane Warne (@ShaneWarne) November 10, 2020
    Following the conclusion of IPL 2020, many lauded Ganguly and the BCCI for the success of this year's edition. 
    Amongst those, former Australian cricketer Shane Warne, too, had nothing but praise for Ganguly and the Indian cricket board. "Congrats to the @BCCI @SGanguly99 and all the @IPL staff and players on making this season another huge success ! A massive thanks to the players for the sacrifices they have made. Congrats to the @mipaltan on the victory & well done to the @DelhiCapitals on a great season too!," Warne tweeted.
    Take a BOW @JayShah, Brijesh Patel, @hemangamin and the medical staff of the @BCCI for pulling off the impossible and making it a Dream @IPL #IPL2020 #IPLfinal pic.twitter.com/5rL6oqOLmC
    — Ravi Shastri (@RaviShastriOfc) November 10, 2020
    Similarly, Team India coach Ravi Shastri also took to social media as he lauded the efforts of BCCI including a special mention for the Board's secretary Jay Shah, IPL Chairman Brijesh Patel and IPL CEO Hemang Amin. 
    But, there was a noticeable snub for BCCI president Ganguly. While Shastri and Ganguly have been at loggerheads in the past, the Indian cricket coach snubbing the BCCI president didn't really go down well with fans.
    D world knows dat it was @SGanguly99 who took that bold step of conducting IPL outside India & even widout any audience. So d success of this IPL tourney is much because of him. Seems u forgot to tag him. Pls go on & tag Dada - One man always behind the success of Indian cricket. pic.twitter.com/eiWImLTeQG
    — R.Poornima Dilip (@RPoornimaDilip1) November 11, 2020Some people knows to whom and where the credit should goes to. And in this case @ShaneWarne ranked much higher than u as a cricketer and also as a coach Mr. Shastri @RaviShastriOfc ! Better u plan for a holiday @ Vegas .. pic.twitter.com/oLMm04Byaa
    — Kallol Chakraborty (@kcseawaves) November 10, 2020I believe @SGanguly99 is one who behind all of such success - Mr Shadtri never believe of Sourav's success right through his career , but he's is a successful sports personality
    — Nilanjan Roy (@roynilanjan) November 10, 2020A day when you didnt get mention from Indian Coach because of jealousy or meanness.... I guess that is also hell of a success.
    — Kaustav Banerjee (@KaustavBanerjee) November 11, 2020Ravi Shastri when will you learn to give proper credit to deserving candidates, when Sourav was first selected in test team you called him " Rosogullah" , Sourav lashed you with a century in Lords , then again made a dub comment hailing Dhoni the best captain in all formats .
    — Nabankur (@Nabankur18) November 11, 2020Let this bewda joker lose the Aus world champion test series, then see what dada does to him.
    — #IamWhatIam (@AxlRoseJammu) November 10, 2020Drunken coach sahib - kitna umar hua aapka? 59. Jay Shah / Virat ko chaatke max ek do saal chalega. Australia mein haar gaya to peechware pe laath milega Sourav se.... NZ SA England mein baddi baddi baat toh bola par results zero hai. Yaad hai na....
    — Indrajit.Ghose (@IndrajitGhose6) November 11, 2020This Chutya Doesn't even have decency to acknowledge Ganguly and Congratulate MI, He is One of the People For Ruining the Indian Cricket and Whatever Politics is Going in Indian Cricket, One Behind Rohit's Exclusion, Throw him out, We Don't Want Chatus to coach our National Team
    — Akshay Naik #LGFridgeJeeto (@imAkiiz) November 10, 2020Where is Ganguly Mr.Shastri? It'apalling n pity that you gone to level to polish political wuss in order to sustain. Respect on you from now on is not there. Absurd from you n condemn your so called love ethics
    — பரணிஉமாபதி (@Barani_67) November 11, 2020BCCI is the main organizers for @IPL and Ganguly is one of the crucial member for the success of IPL however you are also working in under @BCCI for indian team. In professional world how you can ignore him ,,is it just because of your personal issues.@SGanguly99 pic.twitter.com/4EDfEEND4g
    — Soumendutta (@IMSoumenDutta) November 11, 2020What about @SGanguly99 ? Why you want to create controversy dude everyone knows without him it would have not been possible and i hope after this you still be the head coach of India . You are messing with Dada

    While we can’t stop procrastinating, some people are fighting big battles and turning their life around. Sriharsha Devaraddi was one of us who was living his dream life and was rising fast in the insurance and banking sector but a road accident changed his life in the year 2013. 

    As per TOI, he became quadriplegic and he saw things becoming worse. He was dependant on his wife and parents for a long time due to the accident.
    However, now in 2020, Sriharsha is in the national para shooting squad. He will also be taking part in Tokyo Paralympics.

    He said, "I had a freak shot of zero at the World Championships in Sydney and my wife was in tears. Though I fought back with a string of high scores, I missed the qualification mark by three points.”

    "Managing each month is a challenge but I'm doing it with the help of well-wishers. First, it was the VRL group and the latest is shooter Apurvi Chandela's mother who has contributed Rs 1 lakh," he added.
    He also expressed, "I began driving a modified car in 2016. Once we were driving past a shooting academy when my son said he wanted to look around. When he came back, the shooting instructor was also with him and soon I was introduced to para shooting. I couldn't do pistol shooting as my hand is curled. I chose the rifle instead as I could use a modified trigger. I competed in my first Nationals in Kerala without any equipment and won a bronze medal in 2017. Next year, I bagged two silver, and last year in Bhopal, I won two gold medals.”

    In the year 2019, he won two silver medals at the Sharjah IWAS Games which was a proud moment for him and his family.

    Looking back at what happened seven years ago, he said, “The Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) work between Hubballi and Dharwad was on then. I was not speeding but owing to the poor condition of the road, I skidded and landed on my neck with my helmet firmly strapped on. From there, I couldn't get up.”

    "Rakesh sir set up an electronic target at my house. I shoot from the drawing-room and the pellet travels through the kitchen to hit the target in the bedroom. To avoid any mishaps we lock the doors and tell people not to come during those two hours of training. There is no one around except me and my loader - it's mostly my wife or my mother, who also knows what to do," he added.

    This is an inspirational journey for most of us. What do you think? Let us know in the comments section below.
