    Today I am going to share some idea that will help you to speed up your task as well as makes you smart among your friends.Have you ever thought that using keyboard shortcuts can save your time, efforts and make you smart compared to only using mouse ? If you make habits of using keyboard shortcuts and mouse both then it will really speed up your works. One things I want you to make clear that it will not make your computer fast but speed up what you do on the computer. One of my mentor taught me this when I just started to use the computer.At first I find it very troublesome and slow because I am not used to it. But now,
    I like to use keyboard shortcuts more than using mouse.
