The above given graph represents the sales of global mobile phone brands over the course of 5 years, mainly focusing on the financial years of 2009, 2011, and 2013. The brands under study include Samsung, Apple, Nokia, LG and ZTE. Starting with the year 2009, as we can clearly see Nokia reached its peak sales followed not very closely by Samsung, LG, ZTE and Apple respectively in that order. What we can understand from this is that Nokia was a leading brand during 2009 because of its low price rates and high quality products. On the other hand, Apple had significantly low sales due to mainly one reason and that is high prices. It can be inferred that during the years of 2011 and 2013, the sales of Nokia and LG started drastically dropping and a very viable explanation for this is the lack of technological developement and upgrades. We can see that the brands of Samsung, Apple and ZTE had a boost in their sales especially Samsung and Apple. Which was a direct result of popularity of the brand name and overall product. The conclusion that can be drawn from this graph is that a large number of variables affect the sales of a brand.

The only constant in life is change. I strongly believe that change or variability is an essential part of our daily lives. Why? Imagine eating the same meal for the rest of your life. Does it sound appetizing? Well, to most of us definitely not. Change brings in the possibilty of a variety of unimaginable circumstances and people. A challenging and dynamic environment is more likely to increase work incentive and overall morale because there are new problems that probably noone has ever come across and to be able to think of even one viable solution if not a plethora of them is exciting atleast to me. I cannot fathom a life of waking up early and rushing to a 9 to 5 job of photocopying sheets, sitting in front of a computer staring into the depths of a trial balance and buying coffee for a boss that has'nt seen the sun rise or sun set because of a deppressive routine. And to repeat the same excruciatingly painful day over and over? well that can be termed infernal. Walking into the employee departments of a company where even the lobby echoes with the sounds of ideas and laughter gives me an adrenaline rush. A repititive routine might seem comfortable to some who are keen on a desk job but with respect to long term negative effects it could have on a person's mental health it can be termed as passivity. This was mainly looking at a work perspective however even in the case of our daily routines. Living the same day is worthless. Change refreshes the mind it allows you to move out of your comfort zone and explore. As they say, you only live once, why spend it on indefinite cycle of the same activities. For example, I remember having to repeat my routine of school, friends, coaching and sleep. My 14 year old self could'nt stand the thought of ife like this till i broke away from my teenage years. I changed my routine by joining clubs and meeting new people. I truly stand by the fact that change is a necessity no matter which aspect of life it concerns. Without variablity we are all but parts of a machine, doing our part and undergoing wear and tear in that duration. Change sparks innovations and creates personalities that can truly bring about a positive change in our world.
