Sudoku for Beginners: How to Improve Your Problem-Solving Skills
Are you a beginner when it comes to solving Sudoku puzzles? Do you find yourself frustrated and unsure of where to start? Fear not, as we have compiled a comprehensive guide on how to improve your problem-solving skills through Sudoku.
Understanding the Basics of Sudoku
Before we dive into the strategies and techniques, let’s first understand the basics of Sudoku. A Sudoku puzzle is a 9×9 grid that is divided into nine smaller 3×3 grids. The objective is to fill in each row, column, and smaller grid with numbers 1-9 without repeating any numbers.
Starting Strategies for Beginners
As a beginner, it can be overwhelming to look at an empty Sudoku grid. But don’t worry. There are simple starting strategies that can help you get started. First, look for any rows or columns that only have one missing number. Fill in that number and move on to the next row or column with only one missing number. Another strategy is looking for any smaller grids with only one missing number and filling in that number.
Advanced Strategies for Beginner/Intermediate Level
Once you’ve mastered the starting strategies, it’s time to move on to more advanced techniques. One technique is called “pencil marking.” This involves writing down all possible numbers in each empty square before making any moves. Then use logic and elimination techniques to cross off impossible numbers until you are left with the correct answer.
Another advanced technique is “hidden pairs.” Look for two squares within a row or column that only have two possible numbers left. If those two possible numbers exist in both squares, then those two squares must contain those specific numbers.
Benefits of Solving Sudoku Puzzles
Not only is solving Sudoku puzzles fun and challenging, but it also has many benefits for your brain health. It helps improve your problem-solving skills, enhances memory and concentration, and reduces the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
In conclusion, Sudoku is a great way to improve your problem-solving skills while also providing entertainment. With these starting and advanced strategies, you’ll be able to solve even the toughest Sudoku puzzles. So grab a pencil and paper and start sharpening those brain muscles.

Does money solve most of all problems in our lives

I am sure most of us can recall these two classic songs, one by the band ABBA and their song” Money Money Money must be funny in a rich man’s world. All the things I could do if I had a little money, it’s a rich man’s world”. The other our own Hindi classic” Na Biwi Na Bacha, Na Baap Bada Na Maiya. The whole thing is that ke Bhaiya Sabse Bada Rupaiya” It’s easy to think: “If only I had more money all my problems would be solved”.This is true of all our problems were related to lack of basic stuff, or inability to travel or experience other things in life; but this notion lasts as long as we are short of money, once we have more than we need the problem begins. Money is only important when we don’t have enough of it, agree or disagree the truth remains that Money rules our world, our life, our relationships. Money is important, we need it, but the idea that money can solve all our problems is a myth a dream. There is no need to be greedy but having a certain amount of money helps us lead a healthy, happy balanced life. Money makes many things but money can also break everything, it can solve and create problems.
Problems Money can create: Money spoils relationships: e.g. wife husband constantly fighting over how much each earns, children, siblings fighting over property, break-ups and separations because of money and property. What we take years of hardwork, dedication to build and make is over in seconds. Money can cause mental, emotional stress: both in its presence and absence, the more one has the greed for more is constantly there, and for the one who doesn’t the fear, tension of tomorrow and future troubles. Money can make people judgmental about you; you can make friends, lose friends, be a hero and become zero in second all because of Money No one can have absolute control over money, if they say so they are lying. One should know how to survive with less money and how not to over indulge when we have money in excess…the expression save it for a rainy day is easily forgotten. Money is as important as you may need it, earn money because it matters a lot but while in the process of doing so don’t lose your values, relationships & moral. Never allow money to rule you. “Money is like chewing gum, you chew on it, lose its flavor in sometime and once your jaw can take it no more you spit it out.” The fact which one should never forget that days and time change without giving us time, one day you may be the richest person, the next second the poorest…money can make you a king and a pauper . According to me, money, morals, relationships, love all have their own values and importance in our lives, problem begins when money overtakes the remaining aspects of our life, even if one thing goes missing, they will turn our lives upside down in seconds. Some say money cannot buy happiness. It’s wrong; money can buy happiness for the moment: don’t you feel happy when you buy your dream house, car, clothes etc, and its money that is buying your happiness even if it’s temporary. Money can also solve & bring problems. It can bring back your loved ones in your lives, get back your standing in society, make you rich and famous and most talked about celebrity in society. When you are wealthy you often wonder if people like you now or merely want a share in your wealth, if you have too much money you cannot blame your problem on lack of money. Infact lack of money can make your life simpler, your goals easier to identify while excess money can make your life miserable. Money is like a pot of honey attracting the bees, all happy, as long as the pot is full, once its empty you are forgotten and left all alone.The greed of money is so much that we seldom give a moment thought to the fact that we are all visitors on this planet and one day we have to depart…that too empty so why so much arrogance, money should be seen as a temporary credit and not as a lifetime insurance and assurance. In the end, I only hope that we leave enough clean air and water for our future generations, instead of leaving them wealth. Don’t count your pennies, count your blessing and you will be a happier person. Bhavani Sundaram is a Delhi-based freelance writer.

9 Problems You Can't Solve With Money

- Travel Rewards Credit Cards
- 0% Balance Transfer Credit Cards
No matter how limitless your budget and how strong your arm, there are certain times when throwing money at a problem simply won't help. So take a look at the list below and ask yourself: Are you facing a situation whose solution might require thought and effort, as opposed to more bankroll? (See also: Your Money Problems Are Your Own Fault )
1. A Failed Relationship
A lot of relationships founder on the shoals of money issues, but even those can't be healed by throwing money at them — what they need is mostly better communication plus a generous dollop of willingness to compromise. And if the relationship problems aren't related to money, throwing money at it won't help at all.
2. A Mid-Life Crisis
It's a cliche of the mid-life crisis for a 40-something man to buy a red convertible, but it's not a purchase that's going to solve existential angst. Of course there's nothing wrong with buying a red convertible if you want one, and can afford it. It just doesn't solve any problems. (Not even the practical transportation problems that could be solved with a more practical car, really.)
3. Getting in Shape
Buying a gym membership does not improve your fitness. Neither does buying a treadmill, stationary bike, or elliptical machine. Regularly including appropriate aerobic, resistance, and flexibility exercise among your daily activities gets you into shape. (See also: 5 Ways to Turn Your Walk Into a Real Workout )
4. Acquiring Skills and Talents
Getting good at something is largely a matter of practice, and money is no substitute. Of course you can spend money on books, on classes, on workshops, and on tools, and all those things may be of some help, but they're not going to give you skills if you don't put in the time to develop the expertise (and they're certainly not going to give you talent).
5. Becoming Enlightened or Even Just a Better Person
There are always hucksters pretending to be one sort of spiritual guide or another, willing to take your money and show you the true path. There are also people ready to suggest that donating money to worthy causes makes you a better person. You can be confident that neither of those things is true.
6. Natural Disasters
It's very reasonable to spend money in advance of a natural disaster, to make yourself more prepared. A well-supplied pantry can really help you through something like a blizzard or a flood or an earthquake. The right tools and right supplies can turn a disaster into an inconvenience — or even an adventure. Money can also help some after a disaster is over. But no amount of money will turn back a lava flow, or get a commercial jet to fly through a volcanic dust cloud. (See also: 5 Emergency Situations You Must Prepare For )
7. Being Blackmailed
You know giving in to a blackmailer's demands just lead to more demands, right? You've seen this movie.
8. Wanting the Impossible
I'd like to spend the next 2000 years learning to be the world's greatest musician, greatest swordsman, and most eloquent Esperanto speaker, and then travel through time to play, fence, and argue with everyone history suggests might have been better at those things than I. Throwing money at that problem will not solve it — nor will it produce world peace, end hunger (or death, or disease), let me travel faster than the speed of light, or meet friendly aliens from other worlds.
9. Being a Happy Person
Money can buy things that you want, and money can certainly solve some problems — and if those problems are making you unhappy, then in that sense money can buy happiness. But research shows that happiness comes from other things . Things like doing good work and having the respect of your peers — things you can't buy with money.
The Three Questions to Ask
So, when is throwing money at a problem the right choice? I tend to ask myself these three questions before I decide to throw money at a problem.
1. Is the Cost Bounded?
That is, can you know up front how much money you're talking about? Is it a one-time expense, or would you be taking on a new recurring monthly expense?
It's easy to make the necessary cost-benefit analysis of a single payment. You have the information you need to decide if the cost is worth it — and if you can afford it.
If you're looking at solving a problem by signing up for a new recurring monthly expense, you're potentially talking about a lot of money. You're also making the analysis a lot tougher.
None of which is to say that recurring monthly expenses are never the right answer. Everybody has recurring expenses, and they're a perfectly reasonable way to cover the basic costs of living. But when you're talking about throwing money at a problem, you're usually talking about something less basic (and less long-term) than, for example, solving the problem of being homeless by renting an apartment.
The "being a happy person" problem fails this test, because even if this or that purchase would make you happy for a moment, no purchase will make you happy forever. The "being blackmailed" problem fails it as well.

2. Will the Money Solve the Problem?
Arguably, this ought to be the first question. If money won't solve the problem, then there's no point in throwing it — or even spending it. But in my experience, this question is so often hard to answer, while the other is so often easy, I find it makes sense to start with the other. If you answer that one to your satisfaction, then you come to this one.
What makes it hard to answer is getting a clear understanding of the problem.
For example, your car has broken down and you can't get to work. That's a problem where throwing money at it — paying to have your car repaired — may be reasonable. But don't stop your analysis there. To come to the right decision, you need to be sure you're getting to the fundamental problem. In this case, the real problem is that you don't have reliable transportation.
That's important, because making a needed repair does not always turn a car into reliable transportation. If this is just the most urgent of a list of needed repairs, maybe you need a different solution — a new car, or a good bicycle, or a bus pass, or an apartment closer to where you work, or a job closer to where you live.
Most of the other problems listed above — terminal illness, failed relationship, midlife crisis — fail this question.
That result is often heartbreaking, but it doesn't change the fact that whole categories of problems — medical problems, personal problems, political problems, social problems — often cannot be solved with money.
Save your money for the problems money can solve. Solve those other kinds of problems (if they can be solved) on their own terms.

3. Is There a Good Chance You'll Get the Money Back?
This is really a secondary question, after evaluating the cost of solving a problem with money. If a problem is clearly solvable, and the solution is easily affordable, you're probably not even thinking about it in these terms. (If the problem is that you're out of flour, and there's a grocery store a few blocks away that will sell you nearly unlimited quantities for less than a dollar a pound, then buying a bag of flour doesn't really rise to the level of throwing money at a problem.)
The third question becomes important when the cost of solving a problem with money is so large as to be a major factor in your budget — or especially if it will significantly impact your wealth.
Probably the most common circumstance is when you've sent a check, but it has gone astray. If you're dealing with a reputable counterparty, especially one with which you have an ongoing business relationship, it's usually fine to just pay again. Eventually one of two things will happen. Your first check will probably turn up and whoever has gotten paid twice will refund the extra payment (or credit it to your next bill). Or, if it never turns up, the money will never have left your bank account. (This is a good reason to pay by check. If an electronic debit or money order goes astray, you'll have to involve your bank in tracking the money down.)
Another common situation where there's a good chance you'll get your money back is when you have insurance. If your house burns down, your insurance company will probably pay necessary temporary housing expenses. If you're sick, your health insurance will probably pay necessary medical expenses.
Many times while traveling on business, I threw money at a problem, confident that my employer would reimburse me for those expenses along with my other business travel expenses — a legitimate move, because the money was solving a problem for my employer as much as it was solving a problem for me.
So sometimes, throwing money at a problem is the right move. But asking yourself these three question beforehand is always the right move.
How do you decide if money is the answer to a problem? Please share in comments!

Nice article, it really made me reflect on what woes I do not have...versus focusing on what else I could acheive. Sometimes avoiding pain > attaining pleasure.
My only concern was the point about Becoming a Better Person. I think that donating CAN be a way to fulfill oneself, but not if you're just donating to organizations that remove you from the cause. In our privileged society, many of us don't know 'poor people' or those in need--not due to financial irresponsibility, but actual need--so giving someone like that money, after probably searching them out, can be very fulfilling. (Heck, even if they were financially irresponsible, its still an opportunity to help someone in need).
A quote from Muslim scripture, a saying of the Prophet Mohamed goes: "The giving hand (in charity or aid), is better than the receiving hand."
...this basically means that although not fulfilling one's own responsibility is a negative, giving and helping those in need is an opportunity for a great positive.
Obviously, I hold this opinion dear, and in my own life have tried to seek out opportunities to help people, who otherwise may not be known as 'needing help.' I don't feel it makes me enlightened, but I know it definitely feels fulfilling, as opposed to keeping up withe Jones' ...and no one can ever keep up!

I much enjoyed this kind of article - it made me reflect to how I spend my own money. I digress on throwing money for solving a medical problem - as a physician myself I have witnessed firsthand the difference money AND education can do regarding the same disease with the same correctly prescribed treatment. Many excellent drugs and vaccines and devices we use today were created by people throwing money - lots of it- to solve a certain problem. Of course, I've seen the opposite too: rich patients throwing money for tests they don't really need when their fortunes are causing an imbalance in their lifestyle, e.g. affording tobacco or steaks every day.

I have thought about having more money for all of those scenarios. Number 6, I have spent a great deal thinking about. When there were all of those tornadoes in the mid west two years ago, I called my home owner's insurance policy and increased my amount.

The author is making a hidden assumption here, that is an assumption nonetheless: that wanting world peace or ending hunger is wanting the impossible. That's not scientifically proven. The only way to create the future reality that are hearts want so badly is to believe that ending war and ending hunger are not only possible, but the most important dream to keep alive.

Just to comment on number 2,, ^^ An existential crisis or angst would never the problem for a true muslim regardless of age because we have definite clear about our existence itself :)))))

Throughout history money has been providing happiness and joy to most people. Allowing people to be free from financial issues and allowing then to achieve financial dreams however, money is not the total answer to success and happiness. Wisdom and truth are more important. The great Greek philosopher Socrates warned his fellow citizens by saying “are you not ashamed of heaping up the greatest amount of money and honour and reputation, and caring so little about wisdom and truth and the greatest improvement of the soul.” Unfortunately Socrates said that hundreds of years ago but this is a challenge that still relevant in today’s world because this world that we live in is full of mindless and unconscious people who believe that money and their reputation is the path to success and happiness.

Biblical Worldview And Money Essay
In daily life, money is considered as one of the most important aspects for people to satisfy their needs and enjoy their life easily. Without money, we cannot accomplish a lot of things and then have a hard life with no goals. Al Pacino said, “Money makes your life easier. If you're lucky to have it, you're lucky.” However, when people think of money, they need to understand its real meanings and know how to have it properly. Money can be not only a faithful slave, but also a cruel boss. Let’s have a look here. As a faithful slave, money is extremely useful to provide for all of an individual’s or family’s needs. For example, it can help a patient to be hospitalized and to have a surgery right away instead of waiting for donations. Besides, money can be used to help the poor to overcome their hardships and enjoy life. On the other hand,…
Analysis Of A Christmas Memory By Truman Capote
This never ending pursuit of money has made the society a selfish one. People forget that there are many things that money can't buy. A Chinese proverb summarizes this argument very well by saying that money can buy a house but it cannot make a home, that it can not buy time, sleep knowledge, health, respect and a good life only the material aspects can be bought but not ones that come from within. Stephen R. Covey in his book ' seven habits of highly effective people also mentions that some of us tend to be centered around money and so our sense of security and happiness is directly related to how much money we have and since its human nature to never be satisfied with what one has he is likely to remain unhappy most of the time. Even a huge increase in wealth is unlikely to satisfy such a person. For this purpose we need to alter our centres to what we really want at the end of our…

Money will accumulate, but it is easy to chase more and more until you realize you’re not actually living.…

To collect money, to hoard money and become richer and richer has become our sole aim in life. It is here in our outlook towards money that we have erred, and so the disastrous situation we are placed in, is not hidden from any one. Each individual has set a goal of hoarding money and money only, and this also not fixed to a certain amount, we just have to go on and on irrespective of how much we need, for the lust for money has become our very style of life. It is a wild goose chase that we are all indulging in, and that, at the cost of all the rest we had.…

In today's materialistic world, the phrase that money can't buy happiness' is tending to be proved hence otherwise.

Being rich is not enough to solve all your problems
Some issues in life cannot be fixed no matter how much money you throw at them.
:quality(70)/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com/thenational/WQ6KFZZHJWD3IWCT4THQ6PEBYQ.jpg)
There are several steps to take to achieve true happiness and being wealthy is not one of them. Getty Images
Having money can be great. Just looking at people sailing by on a yacht as you sit on the beach or accelerating past in a sports car along Sheikh Zayed Road can make us feel envious. Here in the UAE, we are surrounded by those who appear to have a lot of disposable cash to play around with.
On the surface, it's easy to wish you had what they have. They will never have to worry about where their next meal is coming from, or how they'll pay the rent this month. Their biggest decision is if they will head to Paris or the Maldives for their next holiday. Or at least that's what we like to project on them. To an extent, it's true. Money can give people choices and experiences that others simply don't have access to.
However, it all gets a little more complicated when we examine issues affecting the modern world, because money can't solve everything. Some of you may be reading this and thinking, "So what? I would kill to have a rich person's problems!" But there are some issues that cannot be fixed, no matter how much money you throw at them.
Problems money cannot solve easily
Being obese
Developed and wealthier countries often have higher rates of obesity. Just because you are wealthy does not mean your lifestyle habits or weight can be controlled any better.
:quality(70)/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com/thenational/INV2OPXDXP3DRX4BPS2CZIHANM.jpg)
Divorce or family drama
This happens no matter how much money you have, and wealth can make those conflicts even more complicated than they already are.
Not being able to sleep
Your racing thoughts or back pain don't care about your bank balance. They will still wake you up at night.
Knowing what your purpose is
Just because you have money, it doesn't mean you have found a job you love or know what you want out of life.
It seems like the more wealth people have, the less they find exciting and interesting.
Traffic jams on your commute
Both the Ferrari and the Honda get stuck in the great equaliser of the traffic jam.
Health issues
Whether you have cancer or heart disease or mental health issues such as schizophrenia or Borderline Personality Disorder, you will still be affected no matter how much you earn.
:quality(70)/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com/thenational/YCHTPW4MAKV3FVNHVM5EN62L4U.jpg)
Problems that worsen the richer you are
Knowing if your friends or family actually like you
The more money people have, the more they tend to look over their shoulders in suspicion. Are the people around them there because they love them as a person? Or just because they pay the rent?
Caring for your possessions
The more expensive something is, the pricier it is to maintain it or insure it. For example, a Bugatti Veyron's oil change costs Dh70,000, according to the chief executive of Royalty Exotic Cars in Las Vegas.
Using your creativity
Being wealthy can stop someone from developing their creativity or resourcefulness because in most scenarios, they can just pay someone to make a problem go away.
This column is not designed to make you pity the rich, far from it. It actually points us to common challenges we all need to overcome, no matter how many assets we own or how much debt we owe. As American psychologist Abraham Maslow showed in his groundbreaking Hierarchy of Needs, a 1943 psychological motivational theory featuring a five-tier model of human needs, the path to true happiness has many steps.
Having money may help with the first two steps at the bottom, physiological needs and safety needs, but there are five levels above those (belonging and love, esteem, cognitive, aesthetic and self-actualisation) that must be resolved before the highest level of "transcendence" is reached. Great spiritual teachers have long preached that it does not take money to be free of suffering, and that wealth can indeed be a hindrance in the process.
All of us, no matter our socio-economic status, have to work hard to climb the ladder of needs. Money only helps us boost up one or two steps. The rest, we all have to do, no matter how much cash we have in the bank.
