Why you need to reach tipping point ?

It wasn’t until it (a process, a habit or a system) surpasses the tipping point the real change shows off. All the work put in the initial stages until it reaches the tipping point makes a lot of sense when it crosses the tipping point. The tipping point may take few weeks or few months to show up, it is factor of where you are expecting the point. Some people and organizations see tipping point as a hope that it would pay off the hard work and patience.  And some induce fear for both themselves and others by crafting a disaster that might happen. Concept of Singularity in the field of artificial intelligence is great example for both of the scenario. We could argue endlessly about whether we would end up in immortality or extinction. Let’s respect both the opinions.

   Tipping point now can be simply stated as where something big is lurking. The things that happened amid the initial and final point (where it tips) determines the future. This hope leads billions of people to do the things on hope that it would someday pay off. This is largely discussed in the business world. Every company wants to reach tipping point as soon as possible. That’s where money pours in, recognition soars, status hikes, and can enter the successive points. That’s a moment of great relief. Reaching here means there is less to worry about catastrophe. The adversity must have made the shift. At this phase the concern diverges from bankruptcy to innovation. Making a lot of money feels like a mountain of hell to surpass. But now there is plenty of time available to concern about innovation. When it comes to personal, we can advance the routine or habit. No need to worry about falling back to old loops. Between initial and tipping point is where falling back to the former self happens. There is a dip exists in between. The dip is hard to endure that it even make to quit entirely. Seeing there is a dip in front before it tips is useful. Understanding this alone is enough to be patient and placing failure as a promise.

  It is difficult to surpass the tipping point when missing the essential elements. The necessary elements are the key to unlock it. Stumbling upon the older tools to is inept at crossing the tipping point. In fact the journey is eliminating the unessential and equipping the essentials. That is why it takes time to make that leap. Use the time to find the necessary things that would aid us making this leap. The reason why 95 percentage of the things that we fails to make the promise is because they are getting messed up amid the process. They catapults back to beginning most probably sailing through the dip. But a second sail might make it to the point when attached with the right tools. The saddest thing is making the same mistakes multiple times and expecting to surpass the tipping point. After which the resistance makes it easier to defend. It offers less friction and path might seem smooth. It doesn’t mean that it is done with tipping point. But it is a great achievement to hold in the journey.
