E — EXECUTE AND EVALUATE : Turn Decisions into Progress

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE ✦ THE CRA TACKLE SYSTEM • PART 06 E — EXECUTE AND EVALUATE Turn Decisions into Progress Choose the next safe, useful step. Set a realistic time to review the result. If it works, continue where appropriate. If it does not, learn from the outcome and adjust your plan. ACT • OBSERVE • LEARN • ADJUST The Moment When Thinking Must Become Action There comes a point in every difficult situation when thinking, analysing and preparing must give way to action. We may have paused to control our immediate reaction, assessed the facts, identified what we can influence, considered alternative options and reached out for support. Yet the problem remains until we take a suitable next step. This is where the final step of the CRA TACKLE System becomes important: Execute and Evaluate. Execution means putting a decision into practice. Evaluation means examining what happened, comparing the result with what was intended and deciding what should happen ne...

🕊️ Martyrs' Day – 13th July (Jammu & Kashmir)

🕊️ Martyrs' Day – 13th July (Jammu & Kashmir) 

Remembering the Heroes of July 13, 1931

Martyrs' Day, July 13, Jammu & Kashmir, 1931 Srinagar, Kashmir, heroes

On 13th July, Jammu & Kashmir observes Martyrs' Day, a day of remembrance for the 22 Muslims who lost their lives outside the Srinagar Central Jail during the rule of Maharaja Hari Singh in 1931. The day commemorates the sacrifices of those who laid down their lives in the struggle against oppression.

This observance has been a significant day in the Valley's history, marking the heroism of the Kashmiri people in their fight for justice. However, since 2020, the day has not been an official holiday following changes to the holiday calendar by the Lieutenant Governor. In 2025, the exclusion of July 13 and December 5 (Sheikh Abdullah's birthday) from the official list became a political flashpoint, with the National Conference expressing its disagreement.

🕊️ The 1931 Martyrs

  • Date: July 13, 1931 [citation:8].
  • Location: Outside Srinagar Central Jail [citation:8].
  • Martyrs: 22 Muslims killed during Maharaja Hari Singh's rule [citation:8].

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE ✦ A REFLECTION ON LUKE 11:5–13 WHEN YOU KEEP KNOCKING, KEEP BELIEVING The Power of Persistent Prayer What Jesus teaches us about perseverance, faith in difficult moments, the goodness of the Father, and the courage to keep praying when life does not give us immediate answers. FAITH • PERSISTENCE • TRUST • HOPE There are moments in life when we pray, wait, pray again—and still see no answer. We pray for healing, but the illness remains. We pray for peace, but conflict continues. We pray for a breakthrough, but the door appears closed. We ask God for direction, yet the road ahead remains uncertain. In those moments, a difficult question may enter our hearts: Does God hear me? Am I asking for too much? Should I stop praying because nothing seems to be changing? Jesus addresses this human struggle in Luke 11:5–13. He tells a story a...

The Smurfette Principle : Representation, Relatability, Identity & the Psychology of Audience Connection

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE CULTURE • MEDIA • MARKETING • HUMAN BEHAVIOUR The Smurfette Principle Representation, Relatability, Identity & the Psychology of Audience Connection How character representation, target audiences, peer bonding and moral identity shape the stories people remember — and the brands they connect with. SEE • RELATE • IDENTIFY • BELONG A Simple Question With a Deep Answer Why does one character sometimes become far more memorable than an entire group? Why does an audience identify strongly with one particular character even when that character is not the central hero? And why do writers, marketers and storytellers sometimes introduce a particular character not only to represent an identity, but also to make the story more relatable, emotionally balanced or socially acceptable? These questions lead us to a useful cultural concept: the Smurfette Principle. The term describes a pattern in which a group or ensemble is pre...
