Love Triangles

Hindi cinema loves love-triangle. Love is complex. It becomes more so, if it is in a triangle. By triangular love story, I mean, one person is being seduce by two lovers at a time. Common sense says that way he /she/object will get two times love/gifts/ or benefits. But effect is opposite. He/she becomes biggest loser in end. Let's take some example.

Common family situation is when a husband gets in between mother and wife. Both loves him. As soon as he comes closer to one, another attracts him. In end, both mother and wife make him football.

Future Ideas – Block chain simplified

Trust is precious. All trust pillars like banks, government, or temples charge huge money for every transaction. It is also manual, isolated and vulnerable to hacking. Let’s take two simple examples – Flat sale between two people needs lease deed documents and whole day of government harassment. Or, take letter of credit (LC), when two banks are involved, just to give comfort to a buyer and seller. Government or bank are trust pillars and changes in these institutions are difficult because of excessive controls.  

What is your team stage ??

No single human can achieve big. We need teams with people of different ideas and skills.

Teams are key of success. A well defined coherent team can achieve big goals. Any organization , big or small, needs  small teams with similar objectives. These teams must be aligned to organization’s bigger role.

Organization should check health of its teams. Rotten teams are full of politics, laziness, excuses, and escalations. Management sits for review regularly and ends up in political leg pulling of co-workers.

Ideal team goes through these four stages.

Close door gods:

I was passing through a Parsi temple in south Mumbai. In that temple only Parsi is allowed. That is exclusion. Hindu pandits did same mistake many years ago. Temples were closed to dalits. Later many dalits had converted to Islam or Christianity. Dalits were lower castes or untouchable. They were not allowed to touch precious god or his disciples, the pundits. Basic right of prayer got restricted. That was a blunder.  It misrepresented the fact that Hinduism is about exclusion. But truth is opposite.

Skill development in AI world

Learning is life long process. We develop skills as we grow. Memory based learning is dead after google. Artificial Intelligence can memorise whole book for you for your reference. Formal school education will be changed forever. Now education is mainly job based. Wherever universities see jobs, they train people. And people too bounded by economic and social constraint follow the trend.

Indian Men- EGO cycle

Indian men are angry, lonely, and egoistic. Many of them are on road for Rajput’s ego, Dalit’s ego, religious ego, family respect or nationalism. They own all egos. Filmmakers too sell same thing. Padmavat is show of Rajput EGO and Karni Sena too fighting for that EGO.

The potato Story

Fredrick the Great of Prussia, in 18th century, was very keen for the Germans to adopt potato to eat it. Because he realised if you had two source of carbohydrate, wheat and potatoes, you will get less price volatility in market. Even Germans will have two back to back crops.

The problem was very few Scottish were eating vegetables. The Prussian community said” We can’t even get the dogs to eat these damn things. They are disgusting things and absolutely good for nothing. There are even records of people executed for not growing potato.

Reverse Branding

We are seeing emergence of new branding Industry. Rahul Gandhi's image was as a Immature and irresponsible boy. He is now being branded as intelligent leader. Efforts are ON. Huge media agencies are working. He gets huge back up of script writers, event managers, and brand builders to prove that he is the future of India. It seems it is working slowly.
