Technology and pace

With the availability of technology, we can access to any thing in the world. Regardless of which those product belong to, it now became effortless to reach. There is a saying that whenever anything is available without effort, it becomes a product of procrastination. We did this many time if we locate ourselves in a different positions. Due to the availability of free online course, we jave certain opportunity to learn from the greater minds of the world, which is before a decade was even never would’ve imagined. Technology is rapidly growing and along with it the culture. So it is mandatory that everyone should keep a growth mindset instead of fixed ones. Because in the now world, laggards are not only left behind, but will be punished. The main reason for this is the world rewarding system is evolving itself. It no longer rewards those who works hard like cogs in the factory, instead those who keep up with the technologies. Technology evolved from being a subject to necessity. Be

Spiritual goal

 Spiritual enlightenment is more important than intelligence. People we admire were more spiritually enlightened than others. And spiritual enlightenment comes from work. The lessons learned from the experience. Because experience is what makes a person well educated. It is a great teacher. The more experienced a person is, the better he is as a human being. Many people we see around are just cogs. The ultimate goal of an individual must be spiritual enlightenment through his work. In order to do it, he must cultivate experience throughout his life.   Any man engaged in any work is on the journey of self-discovery. With every flaw and good, he is discovering himself. Uncovering each slice of enlightenment. It doesn’t require being lonely meditating for years for self-realisation. Any work when done mindfully leads to self-realisation, the ultimate goal of an individual. What we see around is otherwise and people aren’t mindful enough to understand themself. Swami Vivekananda says in K

Attachment and decisions

 Attachment creates problems. The reason we feel lonely whenever outside of our comfort zone is the experience we are going through is new. When we go through something that we never went through before, we feel a kind of uncomfortableness. This uncomfortableness is resulting in the creation of new brain patterns. Brains neuron activates when we go through something new. The existing pattern when finds it difficult to work with. This is the exact reason why while the new patterns form, we feel insecure and frustrated. Sometimes it creates fear. The brain nature of fight or flee comes to action when we put ourselves in fear. Fear most of the time creates a fleeing sensation than fighting. Because fleeing is less risky than fighting. Your life is guaranteed when you flee. But fighting takes a lot of effort that maintains the required outcome. So if fighting is not a desirable option, the fleeing is the only left one. That is why we see some people easily setting their presence in the new

Blockchain and perception

Many times I noticed people getting skeptical when it comes to Bitcoin and Blockchain. This happens every time when something that is confidential completely unknown to the masses comes to attention. The reason is the lack of proof. People need to validate the history before making sure everything is fine and safe to work. Computers and internet faced the same issue. But within a few decades it proved that this will become an everyday life thing. In case of Bitcoin we don’t have to wait for multiple decades, this can happen within a very few decade. The reason is the exponential growth of technologies and the understanding of human consciousness. In this world of everything is free, all we need is the right sources to form a good perception. A larger difference between just a decade ago and now is the mode of availability of knowledge. We could see people saying that the reason why they missed the Amazon edge was they didn’t saw its rise because of the lack of knowledge. Now this is n

Digital money

The revolution of internet bought changed that humanity never witnessed before. The totality of change that it made changed the planet like never before. One thing that need to emphasize is the field of money. Money, when discovered thought how this paper gonna be trusted. But the slow pace paid the result. It is like we say slow and steady wins the race. People started adopting it and it soon created a revolution. And till now it is going very successful. The reason that paper money prevailed all these years is its relevance and the easiness to handle. We cannot handle tons of product single handedly, but we can easily handle the money equivalent. This simple difference made a large difference. There are lot of benefits such as durability ie we can keep it as long as we want. So then people started accumulating money for their work. Money began to replace everything from there on. It became a single necessity regardless of the language and culture. But what we are witnessing is its

Procrastination and regret

 What happens when you don’t do things that you have to do? That is a million-dollar question. Most of the time we can see this occurrence in our life multiple times. It is a reality and we tend to sway towards it. It creates a lot of problems. This is due to procrastination, the worst of worst. It is a common behavior found among all human beings. Some people are the masters of it and others are the defendants. You don’t have to work to become a master of procrastination. All you have to do is nothing. Literally nothing in particular. Its effect is big in both ways. For a defender he turns and fights. Here the chance is a higher probability of winning outcome. Those are the people stand top in the world. All the things that were achieved throughout history were, somehow procrastination defied action. The same is absolutely true for procrastinators. They don’t do the things that needed to be done and for the time later, they regret it the most. All the things that happened in the

Focus and success

The difference between a successful individual and a non successful, we can call him a miserable person, could be evaluated by hundreds of things. Every adverse situation both these people go through experience different fond of wind. One person (say the successful one) sees opportunity and lessons to learn, whereas the other smells disaster. These are the by-product creation of perception. But those who make well use of their time which is alloted makes the difference. Output measures and output is created by the time efficiently used. To use time more efficiently, we need focus. In speaking of focus, we can make a substantial difference between people who are master and miserable in focusing. It is a quality that is identified among successful people. They are super focused in their work. In that way they create more within less time. It is not the amount of time that matters, but the efficiency on time management. We can observe around or even by an introspection about our self t

Venture and problem solving

The criteria for a long term business success lies in solving a problem. When the business is qualified, by certain customer standard, to solve the existing problem or that is about to exist, we can say that there lies a bright future. Because solving a problem is the riskiest one when compared to being in a community of problem solvers. Bitcoin came as a solution for many problems. Problems of being controlled by financial authorities while making a monitory transaction, the time lag between the transfer, heavy transfer charges and concern of security problems. It is revolutionizing. Because once we verge to make this solution as proliferating as possible, we can find much better problem for a much better solution. Etherium being the future contract provider solves advance problems. In the midst of these, as glittered by the success of these fundamentally strong cryptos, many found opportunity to grab the pie. They created altcoins with no purpose, but they listed In the exchanges su

Subsidiaries and business opportunities

The rise of new industries bring it’s subsidiaries. These subsidiaries, like the industry creates a massive business opportunities. Everything that changed the world itself has created industries that led to the creation of oppertunities. It is a ripple effect and it gets widen. The rise google created such things. Many people found an opportunity to put their work online since they found a successful startup connecting customers to the creators. Then came the advertising and the rise of digital marketing. These all created millions of oppertunities. Likewise, the new technology of Blockchain is such a disrupter. It is a common problem that is being circulating is the environmental problems that is created by the mining. It is serious problem because of the scalability of its power consumption. But there is a saying that big problem means big business opportunities. This is quite famous and we have proof of businesses converting big problems into oppertunities. To mine crypto, espec

Free is good

 The saying in marketing (mainly as a precaution to the victims) is that if you’re not paying for the product, then you are the product. This marketing strategy of making people a product is widely successful and people indeed have no problem in being a product. Since we don’t have to pay for the services they offer, we are comfortable with them using it as a product. If not, YouTube and Facebook never have survived. Since I mentioned these two companies, it is thoughtful to inquire about the scale of business this business strategy brings. There is nothing wrong with giving their services for free. If we look at the positive side we can embrace the amount of change it brought. But of course, it has its own drawbacks. Since the ratio of their proportionality is highly irrational giving good an unfair advantage, we could say those are life-changing technologies. And this strategy is visible almost anywhere. Giving a free trial is a great example. Besides we get news, articles, mov

Investing for greater good

 Being an early investor is not just a position to earn a lot of money, it is much more. The thing that distinguishes between an early investor and a normal investor is their ability to take risks. It is easy to invest in a blue-chip stock, but what is hard is to find those blue-chip companies at its infant stage. Those who find those companies are not just investors, there are visionaries. They push the change and make the world a better world. These investors when they find companies with great potential, capable enough to change the world, they risk their money, not just for them, but for the greater good of humanity. If it wasn’t for them, the world would be a different place. Founders of companies don’t go behind the banks as a means of finding their initial investor, instead, they go and find a new investment firm that holds trust in the future. That is why Y Combinator is so in demand among startup founders. They provide everything necessary for the growth of the organization,

Afraid of crypto

 Because of the failed attempts to make new technology at bay, the authorities are forced to use it. In all cases it benefited everyone. So no one got the frustration of being left behind or not up to the mark. But this not the case when it comes to cryptos. Because of the ravaging feature of decentralization, it became a nightmare for the central authorities. The fear of economy not on the hands, looking from their side is daunting. All these years the most powerful tool used to control the economy is now shifting. But some of them are mistaken and eluded under false interpretation of crypto lovers. It is not the digital existence that’s what people find most attractive, it is the decentralization. With no authority to trench and peep, it is safe. Since there needs no validation from any officials, it reaches right away into the person at the opposite end. The growing popularity of crypto is also the reason for growing concerns of financial authorities. A messed up financial country,

Where most people fall

What’s more difficult in a process of formation is the initial part. Not only at the very beginning stage where everything is completely unknown and averse. Because the same concept of brains uncomfortableness with change. But when we undergo change for a reasonable amount of time, it becomes a habit. Although these habits are formed by consistent effort, it sometimes feels like in vane. Because once we start anything new it will go through a series of process. The part od process is same for everything, but the time for which it to pass differs dramatically. After starting something new the first few attempts might be interesting due to the curiosity involved. Then the curiosity decays with the time and only those who started in search meaning survive the part. Here we can spot the people with an attitude to learn. They must have found something purposeful enough to keep them go further. After surviving the dip they will go forward with past sour experiences. They know where people w

Raise your hand

 The raise  your hand strategy is   well-known   and practiced widely by people who do talking from any field. It is a simple and a call to action strategy. What it does is helps to engage people, more precisely,  the audience with   whoever giving the talk. We can call him the controller. He controls the crowd and their emotions. A   well-practiced   and experienced man can make people laugh or cry when he wants. That’s why they often let people laugh at the beginning by cracking some old jokes and making them emotionally attached to the end.   To actively engage a group of people is difficult than an individual. Because attention diversifies and an individual in the audience gets a fraction of it. So, here the possibility is to make them concentrated, fully engaged. Everyone knows that when the number of people increases, the effect of it which it reaches fades. As a result, the core intention of spreading the notion becomes vain. Only vagueness exists. So what successful entrepreneu

Mindset matters

  The first mover advantage maybe a myth like MySpace. It is not necessary to have a first mover advantage, but it may do good if managed correctly. In the world of crypto we could see Bitcoin reigning over a decade as the leading coin. It got its first mover advantage and it is way ahead than other altcoins. But does it means it will lead forever ? Not really. I’m case of Amazon the first mover advantage was a great benefit. It is not that because of Amazon being the first to deliver goods through online, it is the ever growth mindset of Jeff Bezos. Like in case of any other thing, the important factor is not the advantage, but the mindset that drives it behind. Last day I wrote about having a progressive mindset. But when it comes to BTC, the driver behind it is clearly absent. Its first mover advantage is getting it to the top, but as soon as when one person with growth mindset comes with an equivalent product (which already happened), the first mover advantage may slay.   The

Investment in business and self

  Investments are always referred to do for the long term. That is why the term trading came into action. When we refer to investments, it is basically for a year or longer. It could be a decade or even more. The premise is that the growth must be certain. It is no big deal to find a company that is growth-promising. Yet many people fail to find a good investment company. They still rely on investing gurus for their portfolio expansion. But here the bad thing is they go with half of your product. That makes sense because whoever has this information earns the money.  So when growth is certain there is no reason not to invest. The returns are 100 percent sure. Yet for a visible return, we don’t invest. That is in ourselves. We know that investing in our self is the best investment and it yields a greater return. Exponential growth is guaranteed. But here the problem is, although we have this proof of self-growth, most people don’t see any direct pool of money formation from here. Here p

Growth for business

 The growth of an organization progresses till the founders or those who are at the top position progresses with the same goal as when they started. During the initial stages of a business, it is meaningful to do in accordance with the goal of those who founded it. But as the company grows and grabs a lot of customers, it must go beyond its initial goals by making why substantial. The difference here is the mindset that leads the individual to the top. Those who possess a growth mindset make the company grow on both sides. They expand their own outlets along with diversifying the serviceable products. Each time they introduce a new product, they aim at decades of growth ahead. Growing happens for both the individuals and the company.  If we look at the leading companies of any era, we could see them expanding their businesses from time to time. They introduce new products and services, but the reason remains the same. They do not expand because of their obsession with money, but with

Learning curve

 The learning curve is an actual depiction of what happens when we start to learn something new relative to time. It is easy for a novice to think that whatever he learns is not that hard. But the time goes, it is understandable that the motivation is dropping down and the learning is not as fun as before. It starts to decline down and down until to test the persons' enthusiasm. Those who just started as a fun activity drops here. it is really hard to sustain motivation here because this is the hard phase. Those who survive here go for long shot. This dip in the curve eliminates about 80% of those who started. It is a very mean way of finding the best, but it works. This can be observed from our own lives. it is the reason why we left some of the things that we thought would be beneficial for us. Those who are experts in their field went through this. They have gone so far by now. If we keep the process for so long until it crosses the dip, then it is possible to become an expert

Influencing action

  How the things we did in the past influences the present is a visible truth. Whenever we look and at our journey, we could observe that everything we did made us. It created the perception, the character, and the mindset. If you think you have this poor mediocre mindset, then it is the sole action that you did in the past. It is clearly visible. Even the small portion that is influential could be the highest impactful one. Even the pace of our breath contributed to the present feeling.   The famous saying what brought you here won’t get you there is quite true. It is most certain hereby now that, like the things we did in the past influenced our present, the things we do now creates the future. Every bad and good action contributes equally to the development of character and mindset. It includes both physical and mental blows. Each contributes a well-structured lesson to make us lead ahead. We may not observe the actual contribution that now has on the future. Now could be a br

Simple interface

It is not the new technology that makes the difference, it is the rate at which it spread that makes the difference. A fast-moving technology that is easy to assess and simple enough to understand makes the difference. May the rise of the internet is a big thing, but only after Mosaic and Google, it became transparent. The easiness of use and simplicity in design attracts people to spend time upon. What’s now novel, but has the potential to grow exponentially soon become easily accessible. So the creator won’t get the maximum edge, it is who decentralize makes the difference and profit. To truly make a change, the change must be proliferated easily and rigorously. Once the technology is introduced, it becomes a piece of equipment for growth. Every tool was discovered to replace the old one or to get more results. So it is tough for the old ones to sustain in the market. Market rewards easy and simple tools, with every update, things are becoming more simple and popular. So, whatever t

Incompetence and communication

 There is a strategy that is gaining its popularity at its peak within the last two decades is the mechanism of copycat. It is not new, but the copycat usage is at all time high. It took actually decades, in the early 90s and before, to actually copy the business model. There are multiple reasons behind that. The two most important ones are the lack of communication tools and incompetence.  When a business model becomes successful, it rewards the owner and some of the partners. And their success only limits within their reach and there were no things such as viral marketing. If it had to spread, it must go through word of mouth. It is slow but powerful. Moreover, the business tycoons of that era were not ready to reveal their secret recipes. They themselves developed and applied to every venture. Whenever the organization became successful, they will reign the field, most probably forever. And people thinking of starting a business won't even think of starting one with a heavy-

Making good decisions

Dealing with situations, when it won’t go as expected, is a skill that anyone can develop over time. Like any skill, it requires some effort and hard work. Most of the time people came to know about its value only after having gone through it multiple times. They fail initially at balancing the situation. More precisely, they fail at keeping their own mind in line. It is seen everywhere, but only a few people adjust to make an improvement in dealing with the problem.   There are a lot of benefits to it. By handling the situation very clearly, we can refrain the circumstances from going bad to worse. It saves a lot of money and time, especially for a business. This is a part of good decision-making skills. Whenever we find a person who could outperform in dealing with harsh situations, if we scrutinize, we can observe his insane ability to make good decisions without an emotional influence. This is a skill that needs to be developed. Because no human in the world is free from proble

Listening for selling

One fallacy when comes to selling is the methodology of listening. It is one of the hardest job. Because we always love to say than hear. We want to express our feelings and emotions. We don’t like when people talk always about what they do and what they believe. We have our own ideology and beliefs. But it is a key holding when it comes to selling. Selling involves emotions. Once we know how to manipulate the emotion we can easily make the deal. That’s what a good salesperson do. What is hard for many people will be mastered. He throws every hint, then learns a lot from it. People always to talk about whatever their thing is. It doesn’t matter if it is win or lose, everybody loves to talk about it. They expect us to show some me empathy or jealous. It is a bad habit to talk without a limit. Like every bad habits brings a consequence, being manipulated is one of them. Sales people found this and they created a separate module for its manipulation. They extract information from this an

Selling by creating need

When is the right time to sell a product? An experienced seller can sell at anytime. There is no division of time of any kind of rime frame that he chooses to sell. Whenever an opportunity gets( keep in mind that a seller don’t seek opportunity, instead he seeks it), he proposes his plan. You might wonder how, the truth is you never know he is selling. In fact he is not selling, you are buying. What is the difference and why isn’t it same?. A seller sells a product even when the customer don’t interested. But the master seller creates a want in the buyer to buy. That’s all his job. He doesn’t emphasize on the qualities of the product he is about to sell, instead he expands the awareness of the customer about insecurities that this product is about to solve. Then, the problem almost solved. And people like to purchase form trustable sources. Of one points your flaws instead of flattering, he is to be trusted. Creating a want or the interest towards a product is more important than spe

Prediction and results

 When it comes to predicting things, only an experienced person can predict it with the most probable accuracy. Because prediction involves a deep understanding of the behavior of that predictive thing. When a novice person enters into the game of prediction, he must go through different circumstances to increase the probability of an outcome. Every time when a prediction goes wrong, it is an opportunity to learn. The prediction stands when the pattern repeats. Pattern for different things repeats at the different time frames and different levels of outcomes. That is why trading became difficult. It needs years of experience to make a most probable move when there are plenty of outcomes. But it is also rewarding. A person who predicts the weather earns much less than the one who predicts the price of a stock. Just think about a person in demand who can predict death. Prediction of death is nearly impossible because of the infinite number of infinite numbers of probability. It is a perm

You can start a business

Not ever before that there existed this much opportunity to start a new business. If we look a couple of years back, we could see people aspiring to be an entrepreneur or simply to be the boss of their life, they must do it on their own. Or in other words, there is no one to mentor them. The drawback of those ages was the lack of entrepreneurs. People started business at that time or the rate at which the entrepreneur born was extremely small. So, people need to go farther to get mentorship or to start a business with a high probable win. The roles models are not there to inspire. That was a beginning stage and now it is booming. Especially with the introduction of technology, business communication (even better, customer acquisition) became a high probable winning game. It is now easy to get advice from. The stories and advice of successful entrepreneurs are only a few clicks away. Anyone who has the access to the internet can get information that, a couple of years back, is only av

There is no lack for big opportunities

The best time to start something is to start as soon as possible. This might sound old, but it is powerful. The saying” the best to me to do the thing was yesterday, and the second-best time is now” has its own relevance. At any time, we can observe numerous things at their initial stages of development. Looking and scrutinizing history is proof of that. Even in this day l, something might be at its development and yet to be released. This gives us hope to look at the future and see the brighter side Revolutionizing things happen within the gap of every few years. But only a few partake in its development. This is a flaw in the culture. Many people believe that once a technology is revealed and they lose there, they back out easily blaming the circumstances and sometimes themselves for not being able to produce their own version at that movement. After a few, they will find that again a new technology passed by them and they could not do anything this time either. This is not a fault

Explore the problem

The scale of the universe sometimes makes us to think our problem in a different way. The problem we face were the creation of us. Not so far it happened. Most of the time, when we confront with a problem it either makes as weak or an enthusiast. Weaker person might go back and blame the situation and the things that is happening around. He never looks at the inefficiencies that his persona stands. Because he is not accustomed with accepting problems. It is easy to spot these kind of people get into the mode of complaining and often ending up as a failure. On the other hand the enthusiastics go through it and explore the moments. They are keen about the problem and the solution it brings. They are not known for having a bias towards fear or giving up. Even if they fails to make it to their expectations, they are happy about the opportunity they got and the lessons they learnt. They find solutions and go towards more creative problems instead of stumbling upon the same problem multip

Analyse and accept

It is very hard to articulate how the things unfold. It never leave like how we expected to happen. We can either get thrill from it from it for all the unexpected moves or we can shift ourselves in the dark with an aversion. We can actually make to different outcome from these two options. But only thing that highlights at the end is the effect it made it ourselves. One brings good and other, not necessarily bad, but nothing. It is same as not doing anything. Whenever we face with a situation, there is an equal probability to make it as we expected or it turns other way. Seeing that possibility before it happen will not certainly refrain it from happening, because whatever gonna happen is gonna happen. But those perception can mould our lives by accepting the situation. When we start to accept the things, we starts to analyze. When we start to analyze, we starts to improve by making good decisions. So whatever the outcome, even it is on our side, accepting and analyzing is useful. Tha

Winners and the history

When we look at the history, all the losers are depicted as the wrong one. Always the hero got a lot of hype and were considered as the role models by many. It is a human nature to put the winners in an exalted position and losers at the opposite. The power a winner get equals the reputation and the power the loser looses. One occupied the success, then those who represents ( family, group, or a nation) get exalted as well. We saw this with many. When the British conquered majority of the land, the privilege was extended to the next many generations. The great grandfathers made their grandson the lords. They could beat, tax, trade, or kill the slave in accordance to his will. The slaves are suppressed to follow only the commands. History privileged few generations. It took many life’s and great protests to break the shackles of slavery. But this is just one case, whenever a history was made and declared the winner, then the losers are the “immigrants”. They are not permitted to do anyt

Attention and present

  Attention became a core factor now. It is considered as essential for both personal and professional gain. Most of the time without our knowledge our attention is drifting away from our grasp. The reason is our inability to focus, to concentrate upon the things brings outputs. We are what we focus upon. When attention flows to one thing, energy flows with it. Energy is the core where anything needs to manifests. That is all of us crave for attention and sometimes attention seeks validation (not good). We can either get improved or get impoverished by attention. All depends on where it is channeling through. Attention in control provides great benefits. Once it is in our hand, we know where to channel it through. But most instance shows that it isn’t at our grasp. We can affirm that it is the only thing that is to be fixed. The root cause of every problem. Addiction often happens when we go uncontrol in concentration. Concentrating on the things that gives instant gratification is m

When inflation thrives

Whenever the price of goods and services increases, it is normal that there must be an involvement of central banks to increase the interest rate and thereby balancing the economic growth as with inflation. It is global and most practiced. But when something other than usual happens and central authorities standing on the same decision is what induces a threat. In the surge of covid, while people tried and landed upon investing in public and private equities, it generated a great cash flow in the free float market. After a quick dip, the stock market recovered and made it to the track. That is good sign. Amid this the global governments were forced to decrease the repo rate, fearing the growth of economy. The decision that happened is yet to reveal the results. But the results might not be controlled, because once the participants tremble to stay upon momentum and get suspicious, market falls down brining download most of the goods with it. The employed people might get unemployed aga

Content matters

The 10000 hours rule actually came to vent viral after Malcolm Galdwell’s book Outliers. This concept is not novel, but with Outliers it became easy to interpret and Gladwell made it really easy. And it went like viral. The marketing is not done by the author, instead people took it and spread it. It went through multiple levels of marketing. Word of mouth made it concrete and viral marketing proliferated it like a fire. People did gave the feedback and turned into feedback marketing. It travelled through almost all of it became a powerful movement. This is one such example of how markets and people accepts powerful and useful contents. I’m not talking about Outliers, but the movements happened with it.   In fact, sometimes these movements are created by the markers. They must have equipped enough to carry on. And it works too, especially well with good content and timeless lessons. Products those met with these criteria always travelled faster than any other products or services at t

When dominance ceases

Whenever a transaction to happen, it must have to go through a lot of unnecessary procedure. Those procedure making the transition difficult was a major barrier and third party intervention is unbearable. But by using crypto, it could be reduced. The amount of time and transactions. We love simple and time saving methods. With the universality of cryptos, it is even enticing to use it. Manipulation through monetary power now becoming fragile. Which is a kind of threat of the governing authority. Because the amount of wealth that these authorities are making contributes a significant growth. The growth of GDP by taxing the transaction is a very good example. Even in third world countries the main problem people face is their own currency which is weak and less in demand. Even when they earn lot of it, considerable amount of time is needed to convert the currency when doing large scale business. That is not soothing at all. With dollar dominant over the world, its demand as well as price

Innovation goes dark

Technology disruption is a topic we often talked about. It is a relevant and an observable phenomenon. The reason most of the organization can’t stand in front of the wave of Disruption is due to their inability to perceive the future. Whenever a person starts a company one of the focus would be at making money. But what decides the existence after a couple of decades is the importance we give it to the monetary value. If it becomes the primary goal, then the company won’t last long. People adopt monetary based values instead of ethical ones. They keeps on expanding the scale horizontally by hiring number of employees and setting up more branches. Where they is to make the service or product better. An organization sustains its customers because of the product they launch. It is the quality that attracts more people and sometimes repellant. Innovation dies when we fail to inspire the employees. They do what the founder say. Founder must be willing to adopt new ways and to lead them ahe

Good information

To get the information we want, we get to the sources. The available sources where the information lies determines the quality and amount of information we receive. That received information now guides as forward. Now in a over informed world, it became necessary to have a good source of information. Since people are more attracted towards the negative and over hyped stimulating news, it is plenty everywhere. The task now come down to filter the news and search for the truth. That is very difficult nowadays. Because it is difficult to distinguish between the two. Even when we find the actual information, the relevance of it has considerably reduced. We cannot spot a group of people talking about what’s important without effort. Every here and there we could see mobs gossiping and having fun instead having creative talk. This is a consequence of what they are consuming and consumed before. Those garbage information induces them to eat more. They crave to get what’s the hot topic instea

Investment options

Ever since the dawn of business and markets, collecting funds as form of investment with good ROI became so enticing to both the entrepreneur and the investor. Due to the technology available at the time there witnessed a large gap in the mode of attracting money as an investment. The powerful and rigorously available back then and now is from the institutional investors or individual giants. That is traditional and sure way of money accumulation. Although this is the most widely practiced one, it wasn’t the only one. Different methods were practiced and the fastest and wealthiest mode made it to the top. But those cases were a reflection of lack of tools. But the rise of digital communication altered the usual way and made lot of other ways reachable.   Money accumulation through crowd sourcing and brand promotions are few, yet powerful examples. This is made possible with the help of technology. Anyone can have the access. Many a times, proper communication had been the problem. An

Right strategy

Since there is a difference in the personalities of each person, different strategies works for different people. Our personalities are molded by our experience that was perceived through the senses. This is different, hence the personality. As a consequence each of us see the same thing in a different angle and interpret our own view. We can say about the personality by the option we choose. That is how the mind operates too. With this mind, it makes a lot of sense when we look at people struggling to follow one method and be a successful at it. It cannot happen. Sure proved way success is hard work and there are lot of ways to do it. Once we try to install a habit, the foremost thing we might do is to copy from where we learnt it. That might have worked for him, it doesn’t mean that you must follow the same. You can scribe your own pattern before actually starting the installation process. Once you install the system, it is better to follow it. Because if you don’t, you are going b

Decentralization is near

How decentralization became a necessity should not be perceived as a novice movement, it is log forgotten suppressed once. When nation became a supreme power of dominance, they decided to peep everything that the citizens are doing. They may be feared of citizens turning against. But that inquisition started proliferating and now expanded to more personal level. From every Google search to monetary transactions, the record is well kept by the authority. I’m not emphasizing at the dictatorship, but even the democratic nation practice this. That say it’s a matter of security and gained the rights forcefully. With little as much power of an individual or a group it is almost impossible to not to rely upon the government and live. But the technology disrupted even the democracy. Making democracy as democracy.   Now decentralization became a necessity and could be attained by anyone with the help of technology. Transferring messages without the involvement of a third party hand and no delay

Addiction paralyse

Abstaining from addiction can be considered as a period of purification. Whatever we think we are addicted will make our mind and physique derail. It can cause serious problems. Sometimes to those around us. When we are addicted to anything, it is clearly visible in our nature. Everything we did in the past is no longer the way we do new things. It is associated with the new personality. Because addiction alter the personality. There are lot of cause for being addicted. One of them is the indiscipline. Whenever something that is so momentarily stimulus, we get to go often. Our brain craves to take a taste more often and we lose control of ourselves. This might have happened to anyone who is undisciplined. Unfortunately, most of us grown up in indiscipline. Indiscipline compounds and makes it harder to get disciplined after few years. That is why old peoples are more resistance towards the change. The brain is already molded. The least they can do is to try. The possibility of getting

Being curious is option

The point of being a curious person is it helps is to grow. A passion for learning comes from curiosity. It is like being the idiot in the room. Id we don’t know what a person is talking about, we mostly try to ignore. But this is not in the case of a curious person, he tries to learn those complex concepts. If it seems important, then he will research it thoroughly. This is actually a gift. Only curious mind invented things. The word innovation are pivoted around these people. We can affirm that they are life long learners and hence they grow . These people will not refrain from the mission until they find the answer.    They can be easily identified by the method of execution and behaviour. Some of them don’t care about the outside world. They sometimes refrain from it. And they are monomaniacal about the subject. This is a highly valued skill, especially in this world of distraction. Curiosity led people to conduct expedition comprising of very vast field. Scientific inventions an

When to diversify?

Over diversification is often seen among many people. Those who knows well to manage can actual manage it, others just fails miserably. These peoples who diversify the things that they think they can make something out of it are most probably driven by reputation . Also sometimes by fomo. This is not only the case of a personal level, it applies to everything. But the common thing we can observe during this diversification is the lack of focus. Instead of directing their focus to make anything better, they give their fractured attention to lot of things. When they do this, they often get exhausted at the level of thinking. If someone is important enough, then it is important to make good amount of time analysing and reflecting upon specific problem instead of launching a new venture. Every time the new venture consumes significant amount of time for its growth. So the prime focus should always be on the foremost problem. Because without solving what is important and veering the att

Giants not playing right

 When there is a place to fill, those who see the opportunity and have the resources fills it as soon as possible. There are two notions behind this action. It is either to create a change or to make money. Rarely sometimes both. The primary objective would be either one of it. After filling the gap and being the first in the business they can actually disrupt the newly founded industry. They designate their name, sometimes by power creation of a brand and thereby gaining the trust. This is a traditional way of rising as an unshakable industry giant. New babies have work so hard to level this. Which is not so valuable since the time and energy can be detoured into anyways of multiple possibilities.    Sometimes the giants, known for making great leaps , makes mistakes. There is sure element of greed behind it, most of all they just forget their motto. They are not who they were. It may be due to the wrong people at the important position or ego driven right people. But the mistake mak

Weekly analysis

  It is really possible to outperform our past amount of output having a systematic plan. By sticking to a weekly plan is way more powerful and productive than the yearly plan. In case of scribing plan during particular year, it is a common phenomenon that people make less potential ones and moreover they tend to procrastinate. Procrastination here happens due to uncertainty. It is one of the highly leverage trigger for procrastination. In between the target and the presence, we could see a large gap of non-performance review. This means we never check the results and analyze the progress. All is left to the end and mod time is mostly wasted. It is a mistake not to fix this recurring occurrence. Having just a plan for this is year is same not having a plan. Every one knows after a year things won’t be the same. But our goal is to make the situation and lifestyle better than before. For this evaluation is inevitable. Having a progressive journal is both a reflection and motivation

Optimistic view

Optimistic peoples are driven by hope. They create the things even in the middle of chaos. Whatever the case or scenario, there is an equal possibility for both the positive and negative outcome. Because of the constant exposure to the pessimistic surrounding and culture,we are hardwired to think like a pessimist. In one sense, we could say that it is not our mistake by blaming the society thoroughly. Yet on the flip side, we can say that we could have made a change which comes under our responsibility. So it is paradoxical.    Even by this influence, for luckily, we have many visionaries. All visionary people are optimists and they could see the things that most people don’t. They see opportunity instead of chaos and acts up on it. They are confident and highly energetic. The vision they have in their mind is enough to swap the imprudent breeze of failure. Whenever they approach a failure, they take that as a learning opportunity and learning thoroughly. That is a great difference an

Leverage is good when used smartly

Leverage attracts people and vice versa. Whenever we want to trade or in any case of acquisition, what we expect is not the mere margin profit, instead we shoot for highly leveraged return. This is primitive emotion of greed. People making fortune at investments are great example. They invest after checking the fundamental and what the balance sheet has to offer and invest. This is not an easy job. They wait for couple of year to compound with a hope of no economic depression and make lot of money. That is huge. Here, like many modern day technological leverages are not available, instead they rely upon the opportunity leverage. The future is full of possibilities and by their analysis they might have found out the future of the organisation is about to explode. These rich people are very keen at predicting the outcome by the current, which now has been one of the toughest job. Because of the exponential curve of growth, predictions are less probable to tryst upon. Yet wen predict a

Strategy difference

There is not actually a proven business strategy. Different strategies are suitable for different businesses. Some people choose wrong strategy for their business and ends up in loss or sometimes bankruptcy. This is not only the case of small scale business, even matured companies make this mistake. Sometimes the consequences are certainly high. Most probably they end up in loss. Without studying the business atmosphere and lack of proper basic knowledge, this mistake is unavailable. Founders know how to run and which proposal to take. As soon as they appoint a new person, things sometimes starts to change. The growth persists when the company is secured or transferred to the right hands. Right hands means they are actually more than a half cloned version of the founders. He thinks and acts like them. He might have started similar company if he hadn’t recruited.  We could see many examples of large corporations failing to meet the expectations and small organizations making the leap. B

Writing is good

Writing is a very good way of practicing articulation. Early thinkers used their writing skills to improve the thinking. They are great thinkers because they are writers. People who writes is found to be more articulate and debatable than others. These people are excellent at bringing the ideas to communicative words. When done this perfectly, it is easy to make a change.   Early sources of information were through books and other papers. They are highly trusted and only people with expertise of knowledge showed the deed to pass knowledge. Even in digital age, people with intellectual minds do value writing more than videos. Because it is powerful. People who practices writing are often considered as worthy of having a conversation with or being appointed at respectable position. We cannot write like we talk. Writing needs time to adjust and rich vocabs to express. But through practice, it is achievable. Later we could find that the writing is cloned into talking. We can definitely s

Ceasing motivation

After a while of starting something new, it either goes ahead or stuck. It happens with everything that is unknown before. It is different for different things. In personal case committing a habit, for most people, is very interesting at the beginning. Here the motivation acts as an injector. After a week or so, majority of them leave it. In case of business, motivation ceases after something like six months and lot of startup stuck here. People loose enthusiasm. We can clearly observe it’s impact on the performance. That is why VCs tends to invest money after observing for a considerable amount of time. If the company is passion drive, it can easily survive whatever the resistance is. Goal makes the difference. Stimulation through money often ceases when it is fulfilled or when the hope is cherished. Neither case contributes zero passion. It is also important to grow within this couple of months. Stunted growth kills the motivation along with the far reaching hope. Beginning stages ma

Passion driven

Work which generates more output is more valuable. That is what leaves legacy behind. We measure our worth of time in these kind of works. They are meaningful work and it is certainly different for different people. For a person interested in sports, it may be to practice the game for hours and for a writer it is the literary work that reaches the hands of mass. Those are purpose driven. These works, although in reality requires more effort, it doesn’t feel like we are putting. Because it is interesting and a passion. People who finds their passion and follows them are found to be more productive.   It is not a secret that people who loves what they do creates more output than who works for money. A sense of giving it to the world really is the key. While a group of people believe that they are changing the world, others focus on bundling the money. The former individuals are creative and the latter are the cogs.   Differentiating these two sects could be done by a mere factor of insp

Waste less time

While doing a job, whether we love it or not, what is more important or what is more it makes meaningful is the result. How much results or output stands afterward is always the measuring tool. We do lots of hacks such as productivity booster to increase result rate. Out of all, most of the time, assigning time is quite powerful. Time creates a sense of urgency. We all know that we have only limited amount of time, yet we waste it. But when we assign time to a task, we most likely to finish the work than thrash it. The reason is simple : our brain function more vigorously when time is included.   We never estimate the time spent in entertainment or on drugs. Although it cost a lot of time when we wander in unwanted things, we tend to avoid time management here. But feel drastic feeling when we finds a few minute increase in productive work. Here the problem lies with the brain itself. It tricks us to believe that a minute spent productively can be equated with an hour in entertainment.

Slow and consistent growth

Small things has big impacts in our life. Everything starts with small and based on the interest, it keeps the growth. When we try new things such as a habit or a business, the common fallacy would be to make the progress as much as possible. We accelerate the process with the motivation behind. But this hardly works. Wise people don’t do that. What gives the results is slow and consistent progress. Because of our complex brain structure, it isn’t fertile to sudden changes. That’s the primitive brain. This part is afraid of change. It offers resistance every time we try to change. The more we push the novelty, the more it repel it. It is important to take care of such mess part of the brain before bringing a change. Slow introduction is not terrifying, it is learning. Without learning the basics we cannot make the change. Actually this basic learning process is the toughest one. Brain needs a lot of time to extract its attachment from the previous thinking. Installing the new method

Allocating time

In order to get something at our grasp we must do the work. In any case giving enough time and energy is necessary to make it possible. And sometimes not. Those are not rare case scenarios. It is well observed around. We must have experienced this. The evident factor is that, due to the most valuable time, we often switch things around, like hedging. Unlike hedging you cannot do both simultaneously. So the thing is we have to make blocks of time. These blocks will save lot of energy and of course brings the time for our deed.   During this process, it is necessary that we must allocate the time to those defined blocks. By allocating, we are actually veering the time from anything that we usually do to something purposeful . Because doing something that creates meaning requires effort and consistency. Motivation is not enough, it dies soon.   Here some people often confuses this with their moral things. Such as relationship and routine. Instead of keeping it well nourished, they tend t

Eliminating shallow work

Almost everything that added value to growth is provided by few things. About 80% of the growth is happened because of the 20% of the well contributed things. This is a very famous principle. 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 sort out th

Digitalization is disrupting

 Once we confirm the disruption of an industry, we either leave them or join them. But to join we need to level up our skills. Skills are now very overrated and are a key factor that decides the career further. It requires the mentality of shit from the reminiscent pattern to new. We need to learn and unlearn the skills. Because the now relevant skill will not be relevant tomorrow and tomorrow is way advanced than we used today. It is making the process of unemployment so fast today. Not intentionally, but to pace up with the technology. Clearly, companies that existed for centuries are now digitally backed up. Or the competition made them do so. Here game requires new equipment. We could say that digitalization played this heavy part. It wasn’t until from last decade that it began inducing fear among laggards. Because from there it is evident that everything regardless of their field is going to be digitalized.   Digitalization is really disrupting the world. It is reinventing the i

Exposure and effect

 The amount of exposure one is getting from the world he is must have a great influence in his future. Otherwise, you don’t need to copy the things they did, if those are successful. We can also scribe personalities from this. How we spend our day has direct correlation with how we spend our future. And the days we used to live are often controlled by the experience gained from the previous we had. We can sometimes accuse fate for letting us live in a negative atmosphere, but mostly not. There is a choice to choose from and you chose the easiest one. Where you got lot of pleasure. It kept us hooked and you thought you never meant to live. That foolishness might take couple of years or days to relieve.  But the good thing is, if we know the theory we can actually make it our benefits. Lot of people do this and it is simple and powerful. We can change the exposure voluntarily and can change the way we think and act. By finding the right sources to rely upon which leading an expedition i

Inventing the amazing

When we see the things that never seen before, especially if it’s an invention makes leaves is amazed. It in case of natures contribution is an absolute beauty. It drives many people to lead an expedition to explore the nature. Science is undoubtedly one of these expedition, or at least I suppose. Sometimes that wonderful creativity can be observed in humans. Especially with chefs. After the creation, people do go after them and try to reason the possibility that led to it. It is not uncommon that a chefs life most of the time are scrutinized and deeply studied. This is available to public to refer. Technology made most of it out of cost. These artists are not so rare. But their journey to become a chef need courage and encouragement.   Those who make it the invention will be remembered for ever. They are indispensable and led a challenging life. They readily accepts the challenge and create those amazing products. Products that make people to think different, challenging the status

Ideas surpassing the pull

 When we see people taking about the things that is not yet discovered or existing, we often refer them as nuts. Some of the things they were referring makes least sense. And the probability of making it to the real world is almost null. These crazy ideas never made the mediocre to astonish. Instead it induced them to criticize and drag it to the ground over time. Yet some ideas turned real and surpassed the resistance . This is not uncommon.   Most of the ideas still gets reverted by mediocre pull. This world would have been a different one if there is no pull. But these pulls are, like some other barriers, meant to cross. Almost everything new has to surpass this resistance. Of it is strong enough, it will break the barrier. The strength of idea is a by product of the source where it born. A rigid determined source can often disrupt the pessimistic ambient field. Many ideas backed by less driven person dies with fear. And couple of years later, someone with powerful mindset make it

Exponential growth

Growth is completely relative. It is what happened new than what happened a bit before. This time frame is rationally different for different things. And the rate of growth is certainly the product of information collected and consistent action taken. For a personal growth we do have to start from the beginning and ends with the death. No more time for prolonged improvement. But in the case of technology, this is completely different.   Technological growth is exponential since it is immortal. The difference of its growth from a moral being is that it is a coalition of multiple individuals contributed information and actions. It is immortal and the dead peoples contribution never fades away with their demise, instead it multiplies with the next generation. Assigning time frames for the two consecutive period can exactly show this phenomenon. What makes the technologies go exponential is its massive growth of collective information. It is not a person or a nation oriented (although na

Perfection paralysis

  Perfection can be said as an illusion. It is never fully achievable. People strive to become perfect at things that they love. They try so hard and the process continues. It is like infinity, there is no identified boundary. We tend to go forward hoping to achieve perfection. But the journey pays some meaningful dividends. The reason we build teams is to execute our plans perfectly. It is to an extent, could be done by defining a boundary or target. But without the boundary, it may sometimes turn into frustration.   Frustration comes in the way of rescheduling . Often people without a clearly defined goal stumble to arrive at a destination. Even at the time of shipping, they try to make the product perfect. They thrash multiple times and let every time the schedule go away. This is an ultimate sign of poor leadership. By doing this, there are no actual benefits. It often results in dry motivation. Employees loose enthusiasm and the momentum reverse. Sometimes products or services g

Business asteroids

  Several million years ago asteroid in a size larger than the moon hit the earth and wiped most of the species leaving the dust particles to afloat. Since then, asteroid is identified as mostly a negative thing. In fact, many historians believe that that was the turning point to the second life of the planet. Generally, we could see people referring asteroid as capable of destroying anything. This true, but it is not complete. The sentence only fulfills the moral meaning when we add “and bringing the new world of new opportunities”. We would be survived if it hadn’t happened amid the dinosaurs. We must have gone extinct long before. It is common to assign asteroid anything that is about to wipe out the old and bring the new.    The term Business asteroid got popular in the last two decades. Reason: we barely saw anything before. Like an actual asteroid it is perceived as wrong at its entry. Many people said it would not be a problem for them. Some sided with ´this is shit and child pl

Investors to invest

  Investors never seem to go against their will. But they are educative and lifelong learners. They are certainly updated about the startup field. Besides, there is no guarantee of return for the investment. It is at their own risk. That is why they only invest in few companies. But it is a well-established and diversified portfolio. The net outcome probably is positive. They got little time to study the whole process of a startup, yet they do the maximum. Their time is limited to everything. This is a prime reason for not getting enough investors to fund. New entrepreneurs have to master the skill of storytelling and communication. Investors give too little time to explain and convince. Within this time the entire notion must be explained. Investments are totally in our hands. Challenge for entrepreneurs are to spread the idea in a unique way. Uniqueness only stands top amid the noise of mediocre. That is what investors like us are expecting. We don’t care if it is 2 or 3 individual

Beliefs of discount

 Seasons are mostly beneficial to those who are making whole sales. The sales are driven highly with anticipation of belief that people are ready to spend money than before. It is beneficial to both the customer and seller. The main reason is the volume. In normal days, people won’t go shopping vividly and manufactures are less active. We are taught to believe that during season sales companies sell products with more discount. Sometimes with buy one get one offer. No one wants to bet large amount of money during non-seasonal days. We wait for discount to hit thus to save money. And when the discount breaks, huge amount of masses place the order. This is way more than actual sale. Discounts are certain and hence the profit.   On the flipside, companies will profit like hell these days. They employ more workers during this time and install many outlets. They know they can swap money like never before. It is confusing to see who makes real profit. Both sides cannot maintain the same out

Better you want than you should

Few years back at the time where email was gaining its popularity, many people showed an aversion towards the new revolutionary thing. It is quite obvious why this happened and it couldn’t be erased completely. People just tried and left it for no purpose recuring the letter method. But it kept growing in spite of the usual aversion phenomenon. Early adaptors backed it well enough to sustain that virus. People looking for a novel method of communication gladly accepted it and the virus started to proliferate further. Saving a lot of time made it more acceptable in the business arena. They published circulars informing the employees should have a mail account. Now, I think there is no probability for anyone to have a neighbor who doesn’t have a mail account. That was a history and history sometimes repeat with the same message. We witnessed a lot of similar patterns with PayPal, Google, Facebook, and many others. Yet the basic instinct of going with the old remains. People having e

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 as compared to

Services getting cheaper

 Devices which we use for our daily use are cheap than ever before. It is getting cheaper as time passes by. This is applicable to size. It is reduced more than ever. The evolution of these parameters from time to time makes the product more popular and advertisable. Really expensive products advertise very little often. The storage devices of computers of size 1 megabytes are only meant for universities and organizations in the ’80s. But within a few decades of rapid growth, a change took place drastically and enormously. Those devices in the ’80s having a size of a grown man were reduced to a size of a fingernail with 10000 times more than available storage. It got away cheaper. One of the things that the engineers working in the manufacturing of these devices is to reduce their size further and to make it cheaper. Affordable devices are inevitable to rule the market and it is how we measure technological growth. A new innovation in the hands of many makes a huge difference.   The
