Reality©

I have read
Life is fleet
And now I believe,
School to college
College to work
Life just moves on.

I keep on waiting
When that magical moment will come
That shall Fulfill my dreams,
Sleepless nights to dreamy days
One thing that will change
Change my dreams to reality.

I look at people around
I wonder what my talents are
What will I achieve success in
Or what should I go for
These comparisons always arise.

Everyone has some dreams
And I am no one unique,
Who doesn't want to fulfill them
But not all are able to achieve them.
Some may blame luck
While some may give up.

Feels like money controls the world
And power lies behind those holding it.
Some give their lives for money
While others spend their lives earning money.

I ponder about the ministers in power
Corruption and the crimes around,
Elections and those standing in it
Who knows what the future will be.

I look at people and their achievements,
I observe how position rules our society,
Material possessions is what matters.

Life is a race
I better be in Pace 
Just be ready to face,
Who knows how many left days.

Hope now that you might have understood,
Who this 'I' actually is,
Signing off with a smile,
Live life in style
And Stop being pessimistic.

Challenges of starting a new business (and how to overcome them)

Apart from basic challenges such as capital requirement or fund requirements, some other important challenges  that a new business generally faces and solutions to these problems are discussed here in.

When a completely new business is opened, the management of the organization has the responsibility of commencing the business.

Be it a multinational company or a small scale firm there arises various problems on commencement of a new business right from capital/fund requirement to market expansion which the entity must be aware of and it should be able to tackle with these issues in the right way.

 A newly opened business (which may be of any type or size) may face various problems such as :

1) Capital/ fund requirement.

For commencing any business the entity requires finance.
The main problem with the companies is that they may take the wrong financial decisions relating to procurement of finance.

The company can get Finance either but way of debt or by equity.
The company or it's financial managers should be aware of the following:
     1) Risk.

• Debt is more risky because the company will have to pay interest irrespective of whether it is earning profit or not.
• Equity is less risky because the company will have to pay dividend to the owners i.e the shareholders only in case of profits earned.

     2) Cost of Capital.

• Equity is more costly in comparison to debt as the company has to share the profits earned among the shareholders. Higher the profits more will be the cost of capital. Subject to some exceptions.
• Debt is less costly as the company will have to pay only fixed rate of interest.

  

2) Low or even no market for it's products.
Reason : Due to lack of Goodwill obviously since it is a newly opened firm or it may have similar business in the surrounding area which may be well known.

                                  

3)The business experiences low sales.
Reason : The newly opened firm operates just like any other firm in this surrounding area.

Therefore, why will customers of the existing firm change their mind and purchase from the new firm if it does not benefit them in terms of quality, freshness,offers, discount,after sales service or short credit facility to regular customers.

Thus low sales leads to less revenue and hence the business cannot cover it's cost in the ordinary course of business leading to loss and finally close down of the business.

So, how can a newly opened firm in general operate successfully in the market and continue it's business ???

These questions tend to rise.

How to create Goodwill in the market?

How to increase sales?

How to face competition?

Yes, all of these questions are inter related and they have a common solution.

Solution:

1) Use of Strategies in business.

 For eg: Jio's strategy of cheap pricing (Rs.399) with better quality (4G net with unlimited talktime) has shaken the markets of Vodafone and idea.
It had invested approximately 1.5 lakh crores for the entire JIO project and is earning approximately 1/3rd of it's investment in a year.

[ This eg. is written with the point of explaining the concept and in no way intends to promote or affect the Goodwill of any brand]

Use of Strategies in business can fulfill the gap of what position the entity is and at
what position it wants to be.
(Will be explained in detail with amazing examples in the next blog post. Follow for updates.)

2) Use of technology.

In the modern world, with advancement in technology and developments in various fields, use of information systems in business is vital and essential.

Amazon, Flipkart, Paytm, Google are some of the best examples of companies using technology in business and conquering the global position.

Flipkart in 2008 commenced it's business with a capital of approximately 4,00,000 Indian rupees and with the help of technology in 10 years i.e in 2018 sold it's business to Walmart for approximately 1,00,000 crores.

This is how technology works amazingly perfect in business.

For instance,
 1) Use of barcode scanner in malls saves time and human efforts.

 2) Classes in the present time have started their own websites, applications and online lectures where students all overs the world can access the same from home.

Thus as compared to the past where classes used to teach 120 students of 10 to 12 batches in a year,
Now virtual classes can teach thousands of students in the world and act as an amazing source of revenue.

However with use of information systems    i.e technology, the lectures are accessible from all over the world thus is more convenient for students and consumes less time, less efforts and has reduced costs for the business.

3) Good business practices.

Eg: Tata group enjoys a good corporate image in India and in the world because of it's good business practices.

It was ranked 34th (which is the highest for India company) among the top Global 500 companies in 2014 as per Brand Finance rating.However,it's ranking has subsequently dropped and in 2016, it's ranking fell down to 103 in the world due to various issues. But it is still number one in India.

 4) Be Different from the competitors.

Analyse the internal environment of the business i.e the manpower of the company, machines, management- subordinate relation within the organization to know it's strength and weakness.

• Analyse the external environment of the business i.e whether competitors innovate new product so to grab the opportunities and to be aware and proactive of the threats. In this case by modifying existing products etc
• Review past performance of the business if it is an existing Enterprise and see what strategies were used there in.
• Review competitors strategies.
• Conduct R&D expenditure to know Customer preference.

How to learn guitar at home.

How to learn guitar at home?

Yes, learning a guitar is not any big deal.
All you need to have is passion to keep you going.

Let's begin our journey of learning a guitar right away !!

So guys obviously to learn any instrument you need to practice it with your own hands rather just by watching videos.

1) So 1st buy a good guitar.

Now what I mean by a good guitar.
You must know what all things to consider before buying your guitar.

Obviously if you are a beginner do not have any practical knowledge.
So you can watch YouTube videos to know the points to consider while purchasing a guitar.

2) If you choose to buy a guitar physically from a shop, you can check the guitar completely i.e it's fretboard, action, truss rod, any dents on the guitar if any and most importantly the sound and the comfort in holding it.

3) However, if you choose to buy a guitar from any e-commerce website like Amazon or Flipkart is completely fine.

But remember these tips to make the right purchase -

• Buy a nice branded guitar.

( This does not mean to invest heavily as there are some really good guitars i truly suggest ) i.e YAMAHA F310 , CORT AD 810 . That are available at a nominal price.

• Why a branded guitar ?

Simply because you can trust on the quality and features which a brand provides rather buying an unbranded guitar (1500 to 3000) that sacrifices the quality, features,and it's life of use.

4) Once you have your guitar in hand -

• Go to YouTube.
• Search - basic lessons to learn a guitar for a beginner.
• Learn the musical theory.
• The name of the strings.
• Notes and the chromatic scale.
• The chords.
• The basic major and minor scales.
• Some easy songs using the basics.

Guys, remember that all of this is available on YouTube so there is no need for you to worry about going to guitar class or buy any books.

Remember that learning anything in life is not easy. Passion is what will keep you moving.

I know here I'm giving some sort of preaching like a teacher but believe me guys,

you will come across this situation while learning a guitar that you will not be able to play the chords rightly or press the strings properly or having a buzzing sound while playing chords.

Yes! you will surely get bored practicing or feel like giving up,but when you feel this I am sure at this point you have  just cleared the 1st step.

Some important points to notice while watching YouTube videos on playing a guitar :

While watching videos See how the guitar player places his fingers which are very close to the frets and bent on the tips of the fingers.

Remember to bend your fingers on the tips.
Have the right thumb position holding the guitar.

Yeah, I've mentioned all the basics of learning a guitar free of cost at home.

Now the choice lies completely in your hands whether to go for classes or learn at home.

Business strategies and techniques.

Before having started I'd like to make all the viewers aware that the strategies mentioned below are available in the market for a huge price, I am giving them for free without having you subscribing to any packages.

Most asked questions:

 - Why does my company lack the potential for getting the market share?

-  How can my business survive during crisis, failure, competition & outperform others?

1) Focus on adding value to customers and not on increasing sale.

Run behind selling your product and what you find is just a handful of customers.

Instead focus on quality, customer oriented goal, better services & what you have is customers and more customers.

Slowly growing in the long run and capturing the market and having an increase in the market share.

2)Prepare a risk management strategy.

Various business Enterprises shut down because of their incapability to face the losses incurred.

Hence, what I'm trying to tell here is every business should have its risk management strategy prepared so it is well prepared to not only face the risk but also diffuse it.

Confused?

How...? 

•Every management should know what level of risk it is ready to accept in normal running of it's business for earning profit.

•After knowing this,  business can conduct it's operation by taking such amount of risks which does not affect it's normal functioning.

•A risk management team should be prepared so it can evaluate the types of risks the business might face and what should be the proactive and reactivate actions to deal with it.

Thus for instance: If there is some competitive risk from opponents or some change in the business environment, change in fashion or change in customer wants, the business has already it's proactive actions ready so it can react to these risks and have a dominant position in the market.

Thus, the business now knows that a certain level of risk is harmful for it, what level of risk is essential for earning revenue and that it should prepare it's plan having proactive and reactivate strategies so as to enable it to deal and conquer future contingency.

Career and Satisfaction .

Battle of the Apes
Running behind career
Making life a game ,
Loosing and gain .
Life is now a race
Seeing others achieve
Feeling the pain .

We Hear about Degrees
Run behind one ,
Not knowing what it actually is
And finally getting none.

But why don't we think
Of what we are actually doing ,
Here some will feel
Right they are doing ,
While some begin to think
Of all they have done is all but stink .

Nothing is lost
Hope is the boss .
Go towards your Destiny
Or move towards History .

Which size TV should you buy

Credits - Technical Guruji.

Have you ever heard from your parents that ,
 " if you sit in front of the tv close to it , you will soon get glasses."

Is this true ?

Not at all !

It is a fact that sitting too close to a tv or near to a mobile we feel some sort of irritation in our eyes .

This uneasy feeling is real , however this does not mean one would get glasses .

Actually the original story is that , some TV lots had a Xerox leakage thus sitting close to it would actually be harmful....thus people now have a wrong thinking of getting glasses if they sit too close to a tv .

                       Now getting to the actual point of making this post ,

Have you ever thought of buying a tv and got in the confusion of which size should it be ???

If yes then you are at the right place and I'm going to answer all of your questions here .

So if your sofa is 20 feet away from the tv and you have a 32 inch tv , then you can imagine that if  a match is going on in that tv then you will hardly even be able to read the scores .

On the other hand,

If your sofa is 10 feet away from the tv and you have a big HD tv ,  you  would feel as if you were a table fan i.e turning your head left to right for getting the view.

Then what should be the ideal size ???

If your thinking about the ideal size then the best estimate would be :

1) Measure the distance between your sofa (where you sit to watch tv )  and the TV in inches . For eg.10 feet is 10×12=120 inches .

2)Now divide this inch result (here 120 inches ) by 3 i.e 120 /3 = 40 inches

3) This 40 inch is the diagonal measurement of the tv.

Thus here , in the above case , 40 inch is the ideal size of the tv for you.

So friends , now I'm sure that you have got a clear picture of what size tv you should buy , by  using the above given calculations.
