Messi - The perfectionist

You get mesmerized, dumbfounded, awed, stunned, humbled by the act of his perfection, that's Messi.

How do one get to this level of perfection, I don't know, that's something we need to understand and need to be taught. It's not just about football but about limitless possibilities of human capabilities and need to be emulated in every field..

Bloody just because there are so many columns in Excel sheet, formats are prepared in so many columns. There are so many fools in the corporate world who make simple things complex.. we need people who at least make simple things simple..

Stress

Stress in work is not a factor of work, it's a factor of what you dislike. The more you do things that you dislike, the more you are stressed.

Break the task into things that you find easy and that you dislike. Understand your limitations,  delegate or take the help of others for things that you dislike and do more of things that you like. Take things that you dislike in small doses and learn from that. Take a break and do things that you love the most and bring a balance.

Misfits

The world is full of misfits, we don't do what we love, what we are good at, we do what we get, we don't take decisions, we maintain status quo, we don't create choices rather we Crib that we don't have choices..

And we become absolute misfits in what we do. More than 80% in this world are misfits, they don't love what they do, they don't create what they love and they can't create things that the world loves. The damage is not just internal but to the entire world.

Lack of resources, opportunities, will power and intense competition ll increase the misfits in the coming years but find time to do what you love, take a break to create what you love, As Susan Cain puts it, "the world needs you and the things that you create"

Walkers

Have you noticed the walkers, 50% of them are over weight. If walking need to make them fit, who are they. And you see the persons who play any kind of sports they are all fit. Check and do what you love, it helps you to have a regular schedule..

Discovery or Invention

We invented the wheel or discovered that a circular object helps to rotate and move things. Edison invented bulb or discovered that when we pass electricity through tungsten in the presence of an inert gas emits light. Laws of physics is same wherever we are, across the entire cosmos, and our discovery is very much limited to our needs.

Invention is finding something which doesn't conform to the Laws of physics and there are so many. Language is an invention, it has rules but quite different in different places and languages. Religion is an invention, all fictional stories are inventions, but electricity or nuclear energy, engines, rockets are all Discoveries. The entire number system is an invention, if we had 13 fingers, we would have a completely different number system, on base of 13 rather than 10.

As Penn Jillette said about religion,  you wipe out and restart this entire world, all the discovery will remain the same. All the inventions ll be completely different.

Management theories

Management theories are designed to maximize the shareholder value and this is going too far. Even the best of the leaders including HR professionals working for maximizing the shareholder value and the employee welfare takes a back stage. The best organization & the CEO' s are the ones who get the best of the team and team members do the best they can, ignoring their personal well being. Time that the we take cognisance of that and create the necessary balance.
