WWW.CAREERPOWER.IN & WWW.BANKERSADDA.COM From the Editor’s Desk Dear Readers, Bankers Adda in collaboration with Career Power brings to you Competition Power. The reason why this collaboration is so important and a landmark event as both BA and Career Power has had a long and extremely successful association with students appearing for competitive exams. This magazine includes various initiatives that cover various aspects of Banking and SSC exams in an exhaustive manner. Keeping in mind the upcoming exams, we have covered Current Affairs for not only the month of January but also for the month of December under the name “Current Affairs Zinger”. To make learning easy for the students we have also introduced another initiative by the name "NEWS MAKER OF THE MONTH" which covers all the important people, appointments, awards, etc that have made news. Having covered the GK and CA portion in an exhaustive manner, we have also given equal importance and focus to the other subjects of the exams, be it Reasoning, Quant, English, Banking, Computers, Advanced Maths, Interview Preparation or Guidance and boosting the confidence of students. We have also given Mock Papers on Syndicate Manipal PO, LIC AAO and SSC CGL for practice for our readers, so that they can increase their speed and accuracy. This edition of Magazine also includes a new series named “Twisted Ones” which will have questions with higher difficulty level. We believe that each and every student has the hidden potential to reach the unattainable heights, and it is our responsibility to provide them with a platform that hones their skills enabling them to overcome each and every challenge that comes their way while appearing for these exams. Having said this I would like to give special thanks to the specialized mentors of Bankers Adda and Career Power team for providing us with the needed support and making this magazine a success.

They are very much like rubber bands flinging us back and forth into our comfort zones the moment we try and expand the So lets go out there and face your fears! possibilities. So why does this fear do what it does?? Our fears are indeed horrible figments of our imaginations, much like dreams — seemingly real, yet completely fictional occurrences taking shape within our minds. So our suffering is always about that which does not exist, simply because we are not rooted in reality, we are always rooted in our mind and in our imagination. If we were rooted in reality, there would be no fear. Our fear is always about what’s going to happen next (whether we will make it in life, fear of failure, will I be appreciated by people). Just think about it we people are always suffering from either what happened yesterday(mistakes we might have made, something we might have achieved, people we might have met, discussions we might have had) or what may happen tomorrow , so basically in this process of past and future, we forget to live TODAY i.e. the PRESENT!!Today comes to us with so much beauty and hope, an opportunity that we often forget to cease.
