We're wrong about most of the thing (IM 403)

It's not our success that drive us forward, rather it is our failure.

It is our failure that provokes us to give it one more try because of the unwavering faith we have in our dream.

If we succeed, we settle for it; if we fail we go forward with a hope of getting better.

Busy Vs Productive (IM 402)

This might be the must subtle yet important thing that should be considered by everybody. We all are going to be busy most of the time whether we really are or we pretend to be one.

Whatever it is we should always question ourselves that are we just busy or we are busy and productive? This should be the question we should be asking ourselves whenever we are busy.

Being busy is not always the opposite of being productive. For those who work for others, being busy is their job no matter whether that is productive or not.

But everyone else, we should try to be productive not the busy.

Opportunity is in the eye of beholder (IM 401)

The consequences of any action whether it is good or terrible is an opportunity for improvement and next action. Every situation has its loopholes and that loopholes are the opportunity to be taken.

Situations build walls to keep us out; we will find more walls within walls if move away from it. What we are supposed to do is seek doors within these walls. These walls has tiny holes and we have to peer through this tiny holes and find the key that opens the door- the door of opportunity to make an impact so the we can have access to it.

Every situations brings an opportunity with itself. It depends upon the eye of beholder to find it.

DON’T SELL YOURSELF SHORT (IM 400)

Thoughts are so intense that it might make you or break you. Big dreams die before it is born and executed by the thinking process. On the other hand, it is also lived by the faith on the obsessive thoughts.

We think ourselves so small by looking at the present conditions. We sell ourselves too short looking at the struggles we are facing today.

What is it that makes you small and weak? What is it that makes you quit your dream job? What is it that makes your heart shrink? What is it that makes you unhappy?

The answer to all these important questions is so simple yet tragic and powerful. Its YOU. It is your thoughts about yourself. Its your lack of self-esteem. Somebody said it so beautifully- To win a war you must win many many battles. But, in this battle of living the wildest dream, living the life of passion, the greatest enemy is not your enemy but yourself who always holds you back.

Don’t sell yourself short, whatever you have accomplished till this date is just the shadow of what you truly can. You are always more than you think you ar

A culture of discipline (IM 399)

All companies have a culture, some companies have a discipline, but very few companies have a culture of discipline.

A culture of discipline includes disciplined people, disciplined thoughts, and a disciplined action.

When you have disciplined people, you don't need positions and hierarchy. When you have disciplined thoughts, you don't need bureaucracy and when you have disciplined action, you don't need excessive controls.

When you combine the culture of discipline with the ethic of entrepreneurship, you get the magical alchemy of great performance. This is one of the factor that will lead the companies towards greatness.

Doing gives the direction (IM 398)

We see lots of people these days who decide before they try. Maybe because they don’t see any future there or maybe they think that is not going to work out for them.

But here is the thing, how did you know that the thing you’re dreaming of is not good without even trying? You didn’t know those skittles were the best without tasting it. You didn’t know you love to be thrilled unless you do some sorts of adventurous activities and you’ve no clue about those hot-dogs until and unless you try it.

The point here is trying things out is what gives us the direction. This is what that pumps us and make us move forward. Yes, of course we gonna have to deal with failure and rejections. And indeed failure sucks, rejection hurts but we can’t stop doing and trying things out because this is what that keeps us going.

Life is talent and work ethics, nothing less nothing more. And doing is what gives us the direction…..

Startup (IM 397)

Startup is the process of setting something in motion. It is a newly established business. It is actually a young company that is operated by a group of founders or an individual with the great vision.

They offer a products or service that is not offered before. They are true innovator. Startups has high failure rate; 95% of the startups fail withing 5 years because they fail to innovate products or services they offer to their costumers. They appear too common like other companies. Hence, it is important in being different than others while you are considering for startup.

In the middle of somewhere they cannot tune with their vision and soon they get lost and lose their company. So it is very important to understand the driving force for great vision. It is not by the motivation we move towards our vision but it is because our vision which pulls us towards it. That is how many startup from Mind Valley to Summit are successful.

Because startup don’t have much history, they learn from their own mistake and improve everyday. A fledgling business enterprise (Startup) is mostly successful in the developing countries because there is less competition and more resources available. But most importantly before establishing any startups, you most be prepared to get punched by the market and by our costumers.

"Self" (IM 396)

The "self" is the pure awareness. It is the light of human. It's beyond all the good and evil, beyond all the sufferings of human heart. In that state one sees without seeing for there is nothing separate from him, touches without touching for there is nothing separate from him, thinks without thinking for there is nothing separate from him, knows without knowing for there is nothing separate from him. It is the supreme power of human.

It is through self that nowhere can be known…

We are said to be what are desire is, as our desire is so is our so is our will, as our will is so are our acts, as we act so we become.

In the “The Upanishads” it is said- A wife is loved not for her sake but because the self lives in her, a husband is loved not for his sake but because the self lives in him. A child is loved not for their sake but because the self lives in them. A creatures are loved not for their sake but because the self lives in them. A wealth is loved not for its sake but because the self lives in it. The Gods are loved not for their sake but because the self lives in them. The universe is loved not for their sake but because the self live sin it. Everything is loved not for their sake but because the self lives in it.

And so, The self is what we have to be aware of….

Growing better (IM 395)

Execution is everything. No matter whether it is Apple, Tesla, ServiceNow Inc., Amazon or the most innovative companies in the world, they never grew older- they grew better.

The reason behind getting better of this companies is always captivating and intriguing. These innovative companies supply the products as per the consumers need; they also streamline the supply chain. They create something new.

In other words they solve real world’s problem or the problem created by all companies as a whole.

Most importantly, all these companies know their ‘WHY’. They know they exist and with that in mind they fulfill  costumers demands, which is their first priority.

When it comes to building a successful company, "Does it make money?" should be the question but it should never be the first question. The first question should always be- "Does it serve?"  "Does is add value to others?"

This is how world advances and you and your business advances with the world…

Perfection (IM 394)

Evolution is the single most greatest force in the universe. It's the only thing that is permanent and  it drives everything.

Seeking perfection is the bad choice to make. Instead seek imperfection and deal with them. That is the great way to growth and evolution.
