The plan is : there is no plan.

What we are taught at the B-schools and what we learn behind the big glass building sitting across the table with fluent, apt and distinguished personalities is art of planning . But do we really need it? And whats a plan after all? considerable amount of literature and philosophy has been developed on the law of nature, how luck works, how the nature has a plan for you. And in modern day we try and overlook completely that and tend to over depend on the planning ability of a human brain. But if we try and take a closer look, we find there is no single instance where a plan has succeeded 100%. And even when we claim it was planned, it was serendipity in disguise.
Planning does one thing for sure, blocks our wide vision and streamlines it in one direction. Planners call it 'focused approach'. I call it closed approach. My vision is blind to other possibilities. I don't see any other road. And the worst part is probability of better ways being there is more and I choose to blind myself. A man has 6 senses. And the 6th sense is the gut instinct driven by trust and grown by experience. Like dog we can sense danger, we can sense euphoria, we can sense when some one in interested. The same sense can come handy in picking up what the best we can choose among the ones we have in disposal. Nature drives you to realize the potential in you and you must be driven. We must give serendipity the deserving share of it existence in our life. Let not plan block its way and we grow complacent with a mediocre result.
A planned way can always be traversed, but an unplanned way can not be traversed by planning. so what if it fails? It leads to dead end? We can come back to the same junction and walk the planed path.
In my experience in the software industry as a developer in a team, I understand planning fails. We must have a certain directives like which direction to look at, and the goal must set. But the path must not be defined. The planning fails with the tendency to define even the path. All we need to do is believe and vision. Rest let the nature lead us to that, we must be ready to work for it.

Random Idea again

Ever thought why the real estate business gives exponential returns? And what is the essence of real estate business?
Its the futuristic value of the rather constant and invariable property. The property does not grow as such, it continues to stay where it is. What grows is the business, civilization and demand around it. Hence it becomes a shout after place at a high rate.

Now coming to the idea. Whats the real estate in the web world?? In web all we have is a browser to surf the infinite space of data cloud. We build website and web applications for that and like real estate we have got an address for them too! Wow. That means the address is the value identifier.

Why can't we buy domain names that may be of interest in future for the bigger players to suit their business essence or self explanatory domain names to make a particular business idea identified? We can. and we can buy them now and keep them and later can put them up for auction as and when the business of similar essence starts catching up!

All about becoming a web realtor!

Just a Random Idea - Laptop cell phone

I was watching a movie on my laptop and I had set my cell phone on charge in the other room. When I saw the phone, it had 5 missed calls! May be the movie was just too addictive but why at all this has to happen? Why can't we have a cell phone in my laptop? probably when I am not using my laptop even then? Like we can put the laptop in to sleep or hibernate, we can have a simple software to take care of it when the laptop is on and there might be a small mode called phone more where the battery will cater to the phone processor may be? And a small display to use the laptop as phone when its not on and may be a software display panel as cell phone display when its on. Why not? Well we can refine the usability and extensibility further. But to take it further as a business idea can you see some unrealizable challenges? I don't.
