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.

Pitching an idea

Pitching an Idea to the investors when we desperately need money is quite challenging. Convincing investors is not an easy job. We have to go multiple time to receive first round investment. Investors care more the enthusiasm and mentality of the founder than the idea that they are pitching. In order to show the driven passion, we must have a very good communication skill. Most of the founders keeps their skill at convincing investors at its peak. When they see the opportunity along with it, they tend to invest.

Society can be a trap

There are lot of traps out there. Only after falling or getting out of that trap we realize that we were bondaged for a very long time. We were born into the society trap where everything is predefined. Everything is written and all we have to do is to obey them. We are not allowed to wander with our will and certainly not with any other rules. Predefined are the prime ones. When we look at those cultural scribings of activism, we could see that everything is limiting and designed to refrain is from our true potential. The hardest thing is not being unaware of this trap, it is being in the trap even after knowing you are in a trap. This makes us to think differently. Because we found something, probably, no one around found. It would be game changer for everyone. It could transform the society and culture, paving a more promising future for the generations to come. But what happen when we introduce this theory to those blind people is quite depressing. They mock and joke you, laugh a...

This is one of the reason for advices such as focus on few things stands relevant. Giving time and energy to few things makes it easy to get more output. And the results are truly visible. By constantly trying to expand the focus to many things results in shallow results. It is no good for none.   To make that 80% improvement in our personal or professional matter, we need to spend the time wisely. By selecting the things to focus upon has this direct correlation with output. At times, we do feel that everything is necessary and it cannot be completed without it. But those are meant to finish as secondary. Primary works have primary importance and yields more results. For every energy we puts in, we expect results. The more we 80/20 principle, the more things get done.  We can easily so...

Use information for seduction

The ability to get out of yourself and dig into other people's lives can be useful when it comes to seduction. we must let ourselves subside and know the opposite person well. Know what they want, what they like, how they would react to different circumstances, and whey they like and dislike. During this process of minute scrutiny, never leave a clue that might lead to suspicion. Digest this information and keep tracking the person occasionally and ask them subtly about those private things to show you really care what they said. This sense of feeling that this person cares about us when used correctly can be a tool for seduction.
