They must know WHY

When it comes to motivate people we use strategies after strategies. Offering them incentives and bonus. Medical reimbursement and insurance. Everything is financial and greatly luring. It's like exploiting the needs to the benifits of companies. Money is a great motivator untill the need become non financial. People also like to have status and high profile. They like being famous. Fame is an  inherent instinct from the very beginning of mankind. Organization and employees tend to bargain for each others need. They say you do more work, we give  more money. This might feel perfectly okay for both since they are satisfied with the offer. But neither of them get anything better. There could be more work done and more money exchange, but no big difference. It applies to corporations and employees in two different ways.
1. For employees, it won't solve any of their financial problems.
2. For the companies, the graph still be the same.
   Giving an interpretation might be good to understand what's really happening here.
Why isn't for employees
The money problem never fades away unless there is no desire for possession. This is a kind of buddhist way of thinking but it makes sense. It is also true that not all of us wants a buddhist life. Desire is ingrained in the primitive brain. Money can solve the instantaneous problems which eventually leads to even more bigger problem. Again salary rise is what we demand for. This is like a cyclic process, we arrive at the initial point after a couple of units. The life leaps to where the money lurks. This is an insane situation.
Definitely not for companies
  When companies tries to inspire the employees with money (which is a universal motivator) they kind of loose the integrity and reputation. Each time an incentive is created through money, it's gonna compell the workers to seek for more financial incentives to do extra. They won't care about the economic status of the company. They just need what they demand for. It even get worse when they ask for more paid vacations. They don't consider they are working to make something happen nor do they care about improvement. Gradually they lose the interest and starts to suspect their stand. " Why am I working here ?" won't be too far. The company might eventually get identified by a bunch of people working for money. Every company starts with a vision and starts to shut when they veer from it.
 
   This is observed in everywhere and consequences are clearly visible. That is why it is important to acknowledge workers on why they are working. It's not just about what they were doing there at any moment. This is about the same thing why the company stands for. It is clearly evident in people working at companies whose aim is absolutely larger and insane than their competitors. People won't quit from there. They know they are working on is larger and it exalts a sense of purpose. Working on purpose injects satisfaction.

Reprogramming the mind

The mental cage that is created by the society from ever since we came across the life will get stronger with our inability to face the reality itself. Not the reality that is implied by the perception that is created by the experience we had from birth till now. The irony is that we were rarely conscious about what happened in the past and how it forged the inner self. But by the time we get to know what had happened to us, we might have already in a fucked up state. The more aged we are, the more we are fucked by the society. It might terrify a lot of people. And those who finds the truth often do the surface level solution shits and ends up being worser than before. The solution happens when we fix the deep root cause. It must be more psychological than surface scratch.

Managing things

The benefits of doing things on our own must be overrated. The reason is once it is overrated, it will grab the attention of a lot of people who ignore it. This is the process of setting up the foundation of everyday life. Knowing how to prioritize our day is a skill that is worth pursuing.

Time framing for success

 The problem with people who were used with instant gratification is that they would often assign wrong time frame with result analyses. What gets them to get their feet off the pride work is correlated with the measurement. The first few time blocks are always found to go against expectations. Without having the right time frame to measure, they often fall into the trap. The initials days or months always are meat to experiment and learn. During this learning process, things won’t go as expected and mistakes are necessary. Because learning at the early stages makes the person or the organization strong and keeps huge losses away in the near future.  This period is often misunderstood and depicted as a wrong scenario thereby instilling the wrong belief or notion of passion. This is imprudent in nature and could be fixed straight with understanding or guidance.   The range of possible net outcome differs different purposes. On a personal level, it requires less time a...

The toothbrush test

  To release a product that is worthy of shipping or an idea that is worthy of spreading, it must be of elegant use. No product reigns the market if it is for one time use. We buy products for using more than once. All the things that went revolutionary can be of multiple use or can be used multiple times. There is one test that most of the entrepreneurs use when the launch an idea or company based on that, it is famously known as the Toothbrush test .   This a funny yet powerful test that determines whether the product can be used more than once (keeping in mind that people do brush twice or even thrice a day). If it does it is worthy of launching and investing. All the now products are based on this simple test. People behind that do make sure that it went through toothbrushing process . We can see lot of new products on the market are toothbrushing product. Because we like to have a product which is of multiple use. That saves money and time. People do consider these t...

Preparing for the future

If you don't prepare your kid for the worst, he would probably suffer in the time ahead. The best and most practiced way is that making them naive and not agressive. A kid refraining from a aggressive move always limit himself to the situation that demands courage. And the irony is, anything worth pursuing requires courage.

Lesson from experience

Most of the learnings come from experience and one should focus on gaining experience than pleasuring ourselves in the unrealistic world of social media and pornography. Reflecting upon the experience is the greatest lesson we can ever learn from life. Missing this opportunity is a blunder.

It's not wise to ban Cryptos

 The sensation phenomenon of internet made the breakthrough when it decentralized the system of communication globally. The restrictions and number of processes made lot of people to be resistant in communication. Especially written communication. The restrictions that were put forward was an actual mean of censoring. End to end encryption is completely unethical and least practical method. People are so keen about the words that are allowed to put. It made the free conversation worse. Recipient receives the letter after going through multiple hands. But what internet did was amazing. It made the third person powerless and made the free speech more fertile. It changed everything. Communication became more easier and encrypted. Now encryption is taking around everything, making it more secure and easy. The most widely popular and changing field of which encryption is in highly demand is the currency field. As like the process of post transfer in letters, there are multiple threats...

Adapting and wrong implementing

Adaptation of the new way of life just made the world better place to communicate. I’m not sure with these all amazing technology the world became a better place. Because better is a relative word. Of course the world got better at communication, transportation, lifestyle and availability of information. On the other side it did made some of it worse. The scenario that needs necessary attention is to the earth itself. Climate worsened, pollution peaked, diseases begun proliferating rapidly, manipulation, suicide attempts and many such things. Certainly technology never intended to bring evil to the world. But when it reached the wrong hands, technology became a personal tool to personal gain, totally neglecting the core principle of making the world a better place.    So it’s not wise to say that world became a better place in first place. Since it’s a relative phrase it would be more acceptable when said accurately. Technology did more deed than evil and it ethics perfectly ...

Trade and decision

Holding a position while trading is to be identified as a testing period. An examination of the emotions. Emotions not only a barrier in trading but also the whole scenarios of life. It plays a crucial part in the molding of future. What it did to ourselves is the result of present situation. It only plays in forming the decision and that is the most important thing. Every minute we are deciding what to do, which minute we are crafting our future. If future seems vague, which is what happens for many people, it is because of the vague decisions they are making.

This scenario can be largely visible among people who trade and invest. Better decision only comes with...
