Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does provide all the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave.

Most Plausible ScenarioThere’s nothing I could do in a moment or two which would help me. You say “years.” I’m going to say it’s five years.I had a neopets account as a pre-teen and five years after I stopped playing, I didn’t remember my password, email I used, or username.If I was kidnapped today, five years in the future I doubt very much I would remember any of my passwords. Maybe not even my email addresses.Not to mention, after five years of being held captive, it’s unlikely I would have the courage to try to get online, or to do anything my captor disapproved of.OK, so let’s assume that I do have the chops to potentially anger my kidnapper, and I do remember my facebook password. I have less than one minute to do something. Is the computer even on? It would take more than a minute to boot up. Useless.OK, so the computer is on. Is it logged on? I don’t know the password. Useless.So the computer is on and logged in. Is it possible to open a browser, get to FB, log in, post “HELP I”M KIDNAPPED TRACE THIS IP ADDRESS PLEASE”, log out, and get across the room to my exact posture as before before the kidnapper returns?Likely not.And thus, I languish, afraid to try to save myself, and afraid to get myself killed.One minute is not nearly enough. MAYBE. MAYBE it is. Maybe I post it and get caught and my kidnapper beats the shit out of me till someone notices and the cops show up and MAYBE I survive this.But probably not. Probably, I just end up dead.The Scenario That Would Only Work In A MovieThe camera pans from the empty door to our heroine, crouched huddling in a corner. She is covered in filth with long, matted hair, and implausibly perky and clean breasts. Her tanktop is similarly implausibly torn right down her cleavage. You feel slightly guilty finding her super hot in such a state.The heroine looks furtively from the door to the computer. She bits her lip and you see her teeth are implausibly perfectly white and straight.She makes a decision. She crawls across the floor and opens the first browser. It’s Internet Explorer. You cringe. These producers know nothing, Jon Snow.Frantically, she types. For some reason, she knows the web address for the CIA, FBI, the local police force, and the Secret Service by heart.A noise comes from outside the room. She looks up, wasting precious seconds and stares out the open door.Nothing.She relaxes and turns back to the computer. Her perfectly manicured nails type frantically. She somehow knows her IP address and physical address by heart. The emails she types are eloquent and lengthy. Her finger hovers over the mouse, and the cursor hovers over “send.”Her finger descends.Her kidnapper’s hand falls on her head and grips her hair. She begins screaming. She is wrenched away from the desk. His hands are around her throat. She’s thrashing. He’s doing a very poor job of subduing her. She manages to get her hand back to the mouse. He yanks her away. She gets to it again. He yanks her away. You’re weirdly turned on and also ashamed of being turned on.She gets to the mouse and final time and clicks send.He beats her to the floor, swearing. From nowhere, he pulls a gun and trains it on her. She’s sobbing. Maybe she’s cursing. Maybe she’s defiant. Probably she’s apologizing.The gun remains trained on her for an absurdly lengthy period of time.His finger twitches on the trigger. Her eyes close hopelessly: she has embraced death.A commotion sounds and she finds herself yanked to her feet, gun pressed to her temple.In the open door are a dozen members of the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, and Local Police Force. In the front is her childhood sweetheart whose manly jaw tightens when he sees his lost beloved.“Put her down and surrender.” he orders.The villain of this episode gives a Villain Speech™. The Loyal Boyfriend shoots the villain in the head, managing to not hit his beloved.They fall into one another’s arms, sobbing.fade to blackmusic begins to play[insert wedding scene here]

Finding the right job candidates is one of the biggest recruiting challenges. Recruiters and other HR professionals that don’t use best recruiting strategies are often unable to find high-quality job applicants. With all the changes and advances in HR technologies, new recruiting and hiring solutions have emerged. Many recruiters are now implementing these new solutions to become more effective and productive in their jobs.According to Recruitment strategies report 2017 done by GetApp, the biggest recruiting challenge in 2017 was the shortage of skilled candidates.The process of finding job candidates has changed signNowly since few years ago. Back then, it was enough to post a job on job boards and wait for candidates to apply. Also called “post and pray” strategy.Today, it is more about building a strong Employer Branding strategy that attracts high quality applicants for hard-to-fill roles.Steps for finding the right job candidates1. Define your ideal candidate a.k.a candidate personaNot knowing who your ideal candidate is, will make finding one impossible. To be able to attract and hire them, you need to know their characteristics, motivations, skills and preferences.Defining a candidate persona requires planning and evaluation. The best way is to start from your current talent star employees. Learn more about their personalities, preferences, motivations and characteristics. Use these findings to find similar people for your current and future job openings.2. Engage your current employeesYou probably already know that your current employees are your best brand ambassadors. Same as current product users are best ambassadors for product brands. Their word of mouth means more than anyone else’s.Encourage their engagement and let them communicate their positive experiences to the outside. Remember, your employees are your best ambassadors, and people trust people more than brands, CEOs and other C-level executives.Involving your current employees can not only help you build a strong Employer Branding strategy, but it can also help your employees feel more engaged and satisfied with their jobs.3. Write a clear job descriptionsEven though many recruiters underestimate this step, it is extremely important to do it right! Writing a clear and detailed job description plays a huge role in finding and attracting candidates with a good fit. Don’t only list duties, responsibilities and requirements, but talk about your company’s culture and Employee Value Proposition.To save time, here are our free job description templates.4. Streamline your efforts with a Recruitment Marketing toolIf you have right tools, finding the right job candidates is much easier and faster than without them. Solutions offered by recruitment marketing software are various, and with them you can build innovative recruiting strategies such as Inbound Recruiting and Candidate Relationship Management to improve Candidate Experience and encourage Candidate Engagement.Sending useful, timely and relevant information to the candidates from your talent pool is a great way for strengthening your Employer Brand and communicating your Employee Value Proposition.5. Optimize your career site to invite visitors to applyWhen candidates want to learn about you, they go to your career site. Don-t loose this opportunity to impress them. Create content and look that reflects your company’s culture, mission and vision. Tell visitors about other employees success and career stories.You can start by adding employee testimonials, fun videos, introduce your team, and write about cool project that your company is working on.Don’t let visitors leave before hitting “Apply Now” button.6. Use a recruiting software with a powerful sourcing toolToday, there are powerful sourcing tools that find and extract candidates profiles. They also add them directly to your talent pool. Manual search takes a lot of time and effort, and is often very inefficient. With a powerful sourcing tool, you can make this process much faster, easier and more productive. These tools help you find candidates that match both the position and company culture.7. Use an Applicant Tracking SystemSolutions offered by applicant tracking systems are various, but their main purpose is to fasten and streamline the selections and hiring processes. By fastening the hiring and selection process, you can signNowly improve Candidate Experience. With this, you can increase your application and hire rate for hard-to-fill roles. Did you know that top talent stays available on the market for only 10 days?8. Implement and use employee referral programsReferrals are proven to be best employees! Referrals can improve your time, cost and quality of hire, and make your hiring strategy much more productive. Yet, many companies still don’t have developed strategies for employee referrals.This is another great way to use your current employee to help you find the best people. To start, use these referral email templates for recruiters, and start engaging your employees today!GetApp‘s survey has proven that employee referrals take shortest to hire, and bring the highest quality job applicants.If you don’t have ideas about how to reward good referrals, here’s our favorite list of ideas for employee referral rewards.

Let's get to the root of this problem first. Why do you even feel inferior at all?You feel inferior, because society conditions us (women) to have pride in their looks and (men) in their money, which you don't have right now, by the general social standard.Admit it or not, this is the basic social conditioning since the inception of human society. Little emphasis is ever given to the intellect or empathy in a human, as the yardstick of social honour.Now, once you start to value your intellect, and the empathy—and if you think, you truly have some of these two qualities—you won't feel inferior against anything or anyone.Because intellect and empathy are the prime reasons behind the evolution of human beings, into the topmost position within animal kingdom. Physical beauty or financial abundance did not save human beings from a tiger or crocodile in those prehistoric jungle days. Intellect did. It solved problems. Empathy did. It bonded the human beings together to form the society itself.That’s why, regarding the contribution to the human civilization, intellect and empathy played a much bigger role, than the prettiness and money playing today. So, if you possess them, you should be ethically proud. Not to feel inferior in any case.We feel inferior, when we feel we don't have something that the ohers have. Once you value what you already have, and when you discover the real worth of what you have, you won't feel lagging behind much, in the social competitions for "honor".That’s simple.Now, Here comes the universal monologue : “Easier said than done,friend.”Alright.Remember the first day at school?Was it easy?Remember the first time when you were learning to write alphabet? A,B,C,D...The first mathematical lessons...how to multiply 56x78.First time you learned algebric expressions and solving equations..Was it easy?How many shots you had to take, just to write a single letter 'A', on paper, when you were just of age three? 100 shots were taken, after that you wrote: what looks like 'A' in some way. Then after 1 months of practice, you wrote--what you call ‘A’ today. And now you are writing a whole sentence with 26 alphabets, in just 30 secs.So, if you look back now to those early days of learning how to write alphabet--can you even imagine, what a super improvement you have achieved?At your three year old, if I told you—hey you are going to write a whole english paragraph on Quora one day—would you even believe me? At that time of first learning?Nothing is easy, at the start. Not even 2+2=4 is easy, when you first learned math. Multiplication tables of 9 and 7 were damn hard, when you first learned them.But now, you are a pro at this.Nobody has made you pro. It's you who did all the feat.What made you pro today? Even after repeated failure at that first day of math lesson.*Deliberate practice**And a little push for it everyday.* By our parents. Our school teachers etc.But after we cross 16-18, they stop pushing us, and let us grow in the manner as we wish.And, they expect, we will be able to push ourselves now.But, we don't push ourselves anymore. Instead, we get into a relaxed mode. The liberation mode. The freedom mode. Which kills our drive. The hunger to advance everyday. The hunger to try something new. Instead of becoming our own man, we become society's puppet.Then we say finally, as the society wants us to believe : easier said than done.Now, you may ask me : then, is everything is as easy as you seem to say?No.There is a strict classification in something which is easy, and which 'may' not be easy.Anything which is under your full control, is easy to initiate change.You want to change the country? Umm..not so easy may be. Success is not guaranteed.But you want to change yourself? Very easy. Just start. Success may be delayed, but guaranteed.You want your family to start something new..umm not easy.You yourself want to try a new mindset, very easy.See, we can have total power over our mindset. This is of no doubt. You may not convince your dad to believe in your abilities, but you yourself can always start to believe in your abilities. Nature has gifted this power to you. Nobody can ever know what's exactly running within your mind, unless you express it. So, your mind, is earnestly yours. You have full power to manipulate it. Somebody can dissect your body and can pinpoint your organs, still they can not know what's going on there inside your mind.So now, even after you have the greatest private stuff under your control: your mind, with full power over this anytime you want; do you still think—trying out a new mindsent is : “easier said than done”?No. Definitely you shouldn't anymore.Start pushing yourself from now on. For a new mindset.When world class athletes train, in practice, like Usain Bolt, or Michael Phelps, they start to train with a coach.Their coach do not teach them how to run, but their job is simply to measure their limits and to push it to the highest level.When Usain Bolt is running, he is not aware if he is running the best run of his life in practice. Because he is fully focused on running only. The steps, the leg movements, the body balance and breathing and all those technical intricacies.The coach who is noticing him from the side, is measuring then—whether Bolt is picking the best speed of his life. Whether the whole process can be more accurate, whether this step can be made faster than before, given Bolt's energy.In brief, a coach's job is, to push an athlete to his/her highest level.Assessing your trainee's highest limit correctly, is what makes you good coach or bad coach.If you are not pushing your trainee upto his/her highest level, you are wasting his/her potential. And if you are pushing them beyond their limit, you are damaging their potential.That's why celebrities hire personal coaches on hefty fee. Ever wondered? Why Usain Bolt still needs a coach when he trains, even after his coach never won olympic medal while he himself is a record-holder champion?Because, great coaches are great observers, what often the athletes can't be. They know the perfect limit of their trainee. And staying at your highest limit, not more not less than that, is what makes you the champion.Same theory here. Till 16-18 our parents push us. Those parents who push harder than limit, their children do suicide. Those who don't push hard enough, their children stay losers. But, after 16-18, when it's your time to take on the world and society on your own, you need to be your own coach while running your marathon.You need to push yourself everyday for the change within you and perfecting it. You need to fight your own demons of comfort and luxuries and risk-avoiding mindset. You need to find out your limits; what works for you, what not, what benefits you, what not; and then, you need to apply and continue the right way of your well being, for yourself. There is no parental guidance available for you anymore. Even if parents or your elders want to help you, they wont be able to do so. Due to the generation gap. Every social condition in their 18 is not same as the situations are now. So, your need to build your own social compass to navigate within this ocean of social and psychological complexities.Understand : Instead of giving up hope and being paralysed by the inferiority complex, you need to find out what keeps your mind balanced; and for that, you need to create your own psychological compatibility—to the current socio-economical system. You need to work out your own survival strategy, based on how the present systems are. Not based on which you think the systems should be.You are, entitled to nothing. You are on your own; and which means : being deluded by the inferiority complex, if you resign from the real and practical world, nobody will come to pamper you for your return. The world doesn't welcome unhappy souls in open arms. Like Nature kills its sick children mercilessly, an unhappy soul suffering from the inner void—(which necessarily leads to the inferiority complex)—is always shooed away from every corner of the globe.This horrible fate alone should alarm you enough, to get rid of such complexes as soon as possible—by valuing your intellect and empathy to the highest level.They key is : to adapt.Adapt to your psychological adversities, by pushing yourself to the highest limit. The limit for a changed mindset. A mindset, which allows you to breathe free, with complete freedom and liberty; from the cage of constant social judgements around you.Beyond this slavery of your own mindset, there lies a space of eternal freedom from your mind.Seek it, and find that out.My best wishes for you.

There’s a lot of misconceptions out there today, but after working online for the last few years…I can assure you, affiliate marketing has to be the most misunderstood subject there is.And don’t take that the wrong way either, I’m certainly not judging - as I went through the same thing myself…Where I started looking at all the ways I could make money online a few years back, and after coming across a blog post where this guru was bragging about how he made $1,000,000 from blogging…I couldn’t help but fall in love right away.Honestly hard not to, as they made it look so easy…Where all I had to do was write a few blog posts, optimize my SEO - share it on social media…And voila, I was a millionaire.Needless to say, I went all in after seeing this…And after writing a crazy amount of blogs, and posting even more useless stuff on Twitter…I finally checked my account 5 months later, and there it was…$17.That’s right, after working countless hours for 5 months straight - I’d made a whopping $17…And that was obviously depressing, but I wasn’t quite ready to give up yet - so after that…I ventured out and started looking around for a solution that’d help me fix this mess.Searched high and low, downloading every ebook I could find…Then finally, after doing this for a couple weeks - I came in contact with a guy who appeared to know what he was doing.Won’t bore you with the entire story now, as it’s not too important…But needless to say, after telling him about my troubles - and mentioning how I thought this whole affiliate marketing thing was going to be a little easier…He just laughed and mentioned something I’ll never forget:Yeah, because there’s one important concept nobody likes to talk about…No matter what you’re selling, whether it be an affiliate product or a $7 ebook…You always have to gain the trust of your reader before they’ll buy anything.In other words, nobody just sees some random tweet and buys an affiliate product because a stranger told them to…Or better yet, reads one blog post that’s clearly intended to make money...And that’s the same reason why it takes people months (if not years) before they make money off this.The reason for that is because they take the time to build up an audience, which is usually done with multiple blog posts…And that worked great back in the day, when SEO was new and everybody had a chance to claim their spot…But in today’s world, everybody and their dog is fighting for a higher ranking - meaning it not only takes longer to get one article on the front page, but takes years to get multiple articles on there…Which is what you really need to have enough traffic and build an audience.Anyway, after hearing this - I was pretty crushed…As I started to realize this might not be quite as easy as it seemed, but like a true mind reader…The guy told me not to worry after that, and mentioned how there’s actually a way to “hack” this process…It just takes a little more skill up front.Of course, I was all ears at this point…And after hearing him talk about everything for the next 30 minutes, I knew exactly what I needed to do next…Start creating marketing funnelsNow if you’re not familiar with this term already, it’s an overused concept where all these “digital marketers” have made it more complicated than it needs to be…But in the simplest terms, it’s really an automated system where you guide the reader through a journey - having multiple “conversations” with them along the way…Then at the end of the funnel, THAT’s when you offer your affiliate product.This works great for a lot of different reasons, like how you’re breaking down obstacles they have in regards to the end product - while also educating them along the way…But also because it gives you enough time to build trust with the reader (using automation).In other words, instead of being a random weirdo who’s posting on social media - thinking people are going to see your tweet and buy a product right away…You establish a relationship with them first, show how it can help them - THEN offer the product…And the entire process depends on how expensive your end product is, but on average - these funnels take around 5-7 days (for cold traffic, as you just send them to this system - then let it take care of the rest)...Which is a much better alternative to the 12 - 18 months everybody shoots for now.Needless to say, after learning about this concept - I went out and started purchasing expensive courses after that…And I’m not saying it happened on the first day, or the second day - or hell, the first month…But finally, after a lot of testing - and even more learning…I was able to start creating funnels that actually worked:And here’s the exact steps I used to do just that.Step #1 - Start with a product (or topic) you actually enjoyOne of the biggest problems I see with most affiliate marketers today, is how they chase the money…Not something they actually enjoy talking about.Don’t get me wrong either, I completely get it - as the main point of affiliate marketing is to make money…But here’s the thing, if you’re trying to sell something you don’t like - you’ll get burnt out right away…And with all the opportunity on ClickBank today, it’s really hard to NOT find a product that pays well - and you actually enjoy.At a bare minimum, I always tell people to pick a tool (or software) they’ve used before…But if none come to mind, then at least pick a topic you enjoy talking about.To give you an example of this, one of my favorite topics to talk about…Is copywriting, so if I didn’t have any tools that came to mind right away…I’d head over to Best Affiliate Programs | Top Premier Internet Retailer | Clickbank, and search for anything copywriting related.After doing this for a little while, I’d eventually come across a course from some copywriter who I actually like - so after that…I’d pick his product:And move onto the next step:Step #2 - Targeting the right audienceNow, over the years I’ve seen a lot of mistakes when it comes to digital marketing in general - especially affiliate marketing…But if there’s one common mistake that kills most dreams, it’s just not picking the right audience.This is dangerous for a lot of reasons, but the most obvious is well - if you don’t offer your product to the right person…Then they’re probably not going to buy it (be like selling tampons to young dudes).With that said, there’s always going to be multiple markets you can help as well - so the key here is just picking one and going with it…Which, going back to our current example…I’d pick a market of people who want to start making money online, but don’t know where to start.Like this market (for that product), as copywriting is really one skill that’ll help them succeed online…So that’d be the best place to start, then after we have that picked - it’s time to move onto:Step #3 - Build a system that turns cold traffic into hot leadsAlright, so as I’ve mentioned a few times - there’s a few major problems that prevent people from getting sales online…But one thing that’s always blown my mind, is how people think that just because customers are online - they don’t know how to think anymore.In other words, whenever we do “sales” offline - most people understand how important it is to show the benefits of your product to potential clients, and explain what it can do for them before ever making an offer…But then for some reason, once people go online - they think they can just build a landing page, put a “call-to-action” after that…And expect people to buy right away, which simply doesn’t work.Again, there’s a few reasons for this - but in the simplest terms, it’s usually because they just don’t understand what it is…So before you ever offer the sale, you always want to build an automated system that explains the benefits to your market - along with why they should buy the product you’re affiliated with.Going back to our current example…I’d know my market well enough to understand they probably don’t even know what copywriting is, so if I just told them to buy this affiliate product - they’d look at me like I’m an idiot…So to get around this mess, it’s my job to “meet them where they’re at”.In other words, since I know what their goal is (make money online) - it’s my job to show them how this skill can help them signNow that goal…And there’s a lot of different ways I can do this, but for the most part…I’ve always been a fan of email courses.These seem to work best as it’s information that’s dripped out over 5 days, so you’re not overwhelming them with everything at once…Then on top of this, it’s something they can read whenever they have time - so the “attendance” rates are usually a lot higher than every other method as well:Anyway, in this case I’d create an email course with the main logic of:“The one skill that’ll help you make money online”And there’s a lot of underlying psychology that goes on with email funnels, so it’s a little tougher than just writing 5 emails…But in the simplest terms, if you can give them an email course that explains how copywriting can help them signNow their goals…Then you will get some sales with that alone.Anyway, now that we have this in place - it’s time to move onto:Step #4 - Craft a landing page that converts like crazySo now that we have the email funnel created, it’s obviously important to have people enter that funnel…And the easiest way to do this, is with a high-converting landing page.I’ve tested a lot of different options over the years, from pop-ups to having a freebie on my homepage…And I can assure you, landing pages are hands down - the best way to go.The reason for this is because they only have one option when seeing a landing page, so that alone skyrockets conversions…But on top of this, it gives you a little more time to write “copy” that converts - so that’s extremely helpful as well.With that said, as with everything…There’s a lot of advanced tactics you could use, but if you want to see one of my landing pages that’s converting very well - then here you go:Alright, now that we have the email funnel in place - and a landing page that has people enter that email funnel…It’s time to move onto the last step:Step #5 - Driving traffic to that landing pageSo entrepreneurs are a different breed, and definitely come in different forms…But if there’s one common problem they all have, it’s always getting traffic.From SEO to posting on Pinterest, this is the one thing they all struggle with…And again, I went through this in the beginning stages of my journey as well - so I’m not poking fun…But over the years I’ve learned it’s really not that hard, you just have to understand how to meet your potential clients.There’s a lot of ways you can do this, including anything along the lines of:Facebook AdsTwitter AdsEtc…But for me personally, over the years - I’ve noticed it works best when I write a long-form blog…Then “boost” it in front of my audience.This works best as it starts the relationship off on the right foot, and as with everything - there’s a few ways to do this…But from my experience, it usually works best when you do this here on Quora - then “promote” your answer in front of the right audience.This works great as people on Quora are clearly there to read questions, so they want to see your answer (if it’s good)...And as with everything else - the pricing will vary by industry…But at the end of the day, this method is pretty cost-efficient all around…And to give you some context on this, here’s a recent campaign I ran:The only thing you want to remember with this, is that it needs to be something that leads people to your funnel, and you always need to have a call-to-action at the end (like this):So going back to our example, in this case - I’d go to Quora…Find any question that was something along the lines of:“How do I make money online?”Then after answering that question, at the end - I’d leave a call-to-action that says something along the lines of:“Want to learn one skill that’ll help you achieve this goal? If so, then click here to learn more”...And after that, the link would go to the landing page - so they could learn more about copywriting (if they wanted to) after that, and the rest of the process would take care of everything from there (on autopilot).Long story short…I’m sure we could really dig into the details if we wanted to, but after working in this industry for the last few years…If there’s one “secret” that separates people who make money on Clickbank, from those that don’t…It’s the concept of marketing funnels.The reason for this is because if you don’t have marketing funnels in place, then it’s impossible to establish a rapport with the reader - well, unless you get millions of visitors on your blog every month…But that takes too long, so not something I’d advise.On the other hand, when you put a system in place that guides the reader through a journey - and builds a rapport the entire time…THAT’s when the sales really start rolling in.At the end of the day, I guess it’s really like making a robotic version of yourself - where you put the sales process in place once, then let it work for you 24/7 after that…And if you’re a visual learner who wants to see the inside of one of these systems...Then check this out.

Departments of education and school districts always have to make decisions about what to include in their curriculum.  There are a lot of life skills that people need that aren't taught in school.  The question is should those skills be taught in schools?I teach high school, so I'll talk about that.  The typical high school curriculum is supposed to give students a broad-based education that prepares them to be citizens in a democracy and to be able to think critically.  For a democracy to work, we need educated, discerning citizens with the ability to make good decisions based on evidence and objective thought.  In theory, people who are well informed about history, culture, science, mathematics, etc., and are capable of critical, unbiased thinking, will have the tools to participate in a democracy and make good decisions for themselves and for society at large.  In addition to that, they should be learning how to be learners, how to do effective, basic research, and collaborate with other people.  If that happens, figuring out how to do procedural tasks in real life should not provide much of a challenge.  We can't possibly teach every necessary life skill people need, but we can help students become better at knowing how to acquire the skills they need.  Should we teach them how to change a tire when they can easily consult a book or search the internet to find step by step instructions for that?  Should we teach them how to balance a check book or teach them how to think mathematically and make sense of problems so that the simple task of balancing a check book (which requires simple arithmetic and the ability to enter numbers and words in columns and rows in obvious ways) is easy for them to figure out.  If we teach them to be good at critical thinking and have some problem solving skills they will be able to apply those overarching skills to all sorts of every day tasks that shouldn't be difficult for someone with decent cognitive ability  to figure out.  It's analogous to asking why a culinary school didn't teach its students the steps and ingredients to a specific recipe.  The school taught them about more general food preparation and food science skills so that they can figure out how to make a lot of specific recipes without much trouble.  They're also able to create their own recipes.So, do we want citizens with very specific skill sets that they need to get through day to day life or do we want citizens with critical thinking, problem solving, and other overarching cognitive skills that will allow them to easily acquire ANY simple, procedural skill they may come to need at any point in their lives?

Years ago I worked at document management company.  There is cool software that can automate aspects of hand-written forms.  We had an airport as a customer - they scanned plenty and (as I said before) this was several years ago...On your airport customs forms, the "boxes" that you 'need' to write on - are basically invisible to the scanner - but are used because then us humans will tend to write neater and clearer which make sit easier to recognize with a computer.  Any characters with less than X% accuracy based on a recognition engine are flagged and shown as an image zoomed into the particular character so a human operator can then say "that is an "A".   This way, you can rapidly go through most forms and output it to say - an SQL database, complete with link to original image of the form you filled in.If you see "black boxes" at three corners of the document - it is likely set up for scanning (they help to identify and orient the page digitally).  If there is a unique barcode on the document somewhere I would theorize there is an even higher likelihood of it being scanned - the document is of enough value to be printed individually which costs more, which means it is likely going to be used on the capture side.   (I've noticed in the past in Bahamas and some other Caribbean islands they use these sorts of capture mechanisms, but they have far fewer people entering than the US does everyday)The real answer is: it depends.  Depending on each country and its policies and procedures.  Generally I would be surprised if they scanned and held onto the paper.   In the US, they proably file those for a set period of time then destroy them, perhaps mining them for some data about travellers. In the end,  I suspect the "paper-to-data capture" likelihood of customs forms ranges somewhere on a spectrum like this:Third world Customs Guy has paper to show he did his job, paper gets thrown out at end of shift. ------>  We keep all the papers! everything is scanned as you pass by customs and unique barcodes identify which flight/gate/area the form was handed out at, so we co-ordinate with cameras in the airport and have captured your image.  We also know exactly how much vodka you brought into the country. :)

As its in your question the Database. You need to use a database for this. With PHP, MYSQL is the best option. It is installed with Xampp Server, or you can download the latest version. After installing the MYSQL you need to learn the SQL(Structure Query Language) that will help you to communicate with the database server. You will find so many tutorials on Youtube regarding MYSQL and SQL using with PHP.
