<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> At any given time debt is not good. It may create your credit record but it is wise to avoid EMI for every other item you purchase.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Don't by 50" LED on EMI/APR if you could settle with 32" without any debt.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If wealth building is goal then don't waste money on spending things that would need more money to retain, like a bigger house costs bigger maintenance cost in electricity bills, water bills, taxes cleaning etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you have family car for daily routine and you want to have SUV for your weekend trips, when you buy that second big SUV you start paying for insurance, oil and maintenance, road taxes for the car which is parked often.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You can rent out that fancy car for weekend trip than spending lot of money on it and adding one more liability.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One way to balance this is to live one day at a time -:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Live one day life, live today.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">How do we do that, here we have listed 7 points below to practice one day at a time.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Majorly we don't. Out of rapidly changing fashion, trends we tend to buy frequently and stack up the wardrobe.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Give away or donate the cloths you don't were frequently. Reduce you wardrobe size.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Clutter off all that extra which is cutting your pocket. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Unsubscribe those cable channels you don't watch, I mean in the world of internet and smart devices you don't have to pay heavy for cable TV.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Unsubscribe print media magazines and newspapers you don't read often, if you use your laptop or smart phone for news feeds, even social media.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Decluttering lead you to sense of lightness, you could manage to live in comparatively small house or apartment with low maintenance cost. Less things to worry about.</span></div>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: small;">Are you living your childhood dreams?</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Most of the readers might have seen videos or read book on the "Last Lecture" given by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randy_Pausch" target="_blank">Randy Pausch</a>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This post is inspired from Last lecture.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And wants to try to elaborate how easy or difficult is it to live your childhood dreams?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Will try to remind you what are your childhood dreams and have you lived it yet or not.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Every one would agree childhood days are the best days of our life.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But back then we all dreamt of doing or achieving certain things when we grow up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We could have many dreams such,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">performing like a rock star, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or be a mechanic,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or be a teacher, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or play for national team in any sport that the individual likes to play</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or to be an actor.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or swim in a lake.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We dreamt of getting things we thought we would do when we grow up, be independent and able to what our mind wants to.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Most of the time what we dream of is related to our happiness, what would make us happy like driving to different destinations with good music and lovely people.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Most of these things we plan to or dream about in childhood, becomes irrelevant when we grow up. That is a harsh reality.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Childhood dreams are modest, sometimes impractical and may be outrageous but honest and easy, related to joy one could get.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But its free independent mind with curious imagination.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>How many of us remember childhood dreams in their 30s or late 20s? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>How easy or difficult it is to achieve and live your childhood dream?</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Easy -</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Suppose I had a dream; wanted to buy a car and learn to drive and wanted to go places by the road.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This dream was moderate when you live in middle class household in country like India.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But its simple you could take out some saving from your pay and in couple of yours you could buy a car. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The purpose would be solved.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Difficult -</b></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Well a kid dream of having a car. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He/she would not know anything like BMW, Audi or Honda brands of car.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now If I say I had a dream to driving in Ferrari or BMW and that is only going to give me happiness I thought then it would be outrageous to me or not honest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The liking is to drive down the road, see new places and have fun.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now having no money to buy BMW and grudge it over and stop enjoying what you have would make it difficult. Definitely.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Is trends, unnecessary competition complicating simplicity of our dreams?</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Mostly yes. Everyone would laugh at person when someone says buying some cheap car is dream and praise a person who says buying a Ferrari is a dream.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">People tend to buy expensive stuff to outsmart or out-stand from others. And wanting to buy more expensive stuff makes it more and more expensive.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The message we want to convey is life is simple and you can be happy achieving you have dreamt when you were innocent.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Professional dreams vs personal dreams:</b></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br />Most of our childhood dreams are personal, about ourselves and things to do which would give joy.</span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">By the time we land up in career, profession we set up new dreams.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">New dreams to achieve certain things that would match our professional status quo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or satisfying the stay in or winning the race kind of dreams.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Conclusion</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It could be matter of perception, but I think we have limited time on earth and we are not certain how much time we have.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It doesn't matter if you could not play for national team, but playing that sport is a joy play it for local club.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So living now is more important; than think to start living when you reach certain milestone.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Enjoy your time the best possible way you could, Because it is limited and you never know until when.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Thank you.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>1. Cautious:</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Will choose their words and with significant thinking before let it out to the next person. That reduces the chances of disturbing people upfront. Thinking before you speak or little bit of shyness, may not give instant popularity in the group but gradually one get recognition. For long term people will tend to listen.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It’s interesting, because people say things to me like, “It’s really cool that you don’t go out and get drunk all the time and go to clubs,” and I’m just like, I mean, I appreciate that, but I’m kind of an introverted kind of person just by nature, it’s not like a conscious choice that I’m making necessarily. - Emma Watson, emma-watson-interview</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>2. Active listening:</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Introverts could be active listeners too. They show attentions to others and have patience to be a active listener. This helps in understanding people and responding to them inappropriate manner.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>3. Imagination:</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Introvert tend to imagine more before performing. Thinking on positives and negatives of things they are doing. Spending time alone tends to improve brain activity and imagination. Imagination helps to think out of the box and produce better ideas.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Introvert person like to spend time with oneself, and they feed their brain to work more and improve their imagination.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“I don’t believe anything really revolutionary has ever been invented by committee… I’m going to give you some advice that might be hard to take. That advice is: Work alone… Not on a committee. Not on a team.” ~ Steve Wozniak</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>4. Meticulousness:</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Being shy and less expressive or taking time to put your ideas makes you to plan before you act.You put efforts on detailed planning and consider positive and negative scenarios, also tend to think about how you people will take your work.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You want to make sure performing checks on every step in the work before representing. That give you sense of completeness and job satisfaction, regardless of results.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>5. Acceptance to failure:</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Being less expressive to others or least popular introvert can digest failure and work on it with their pace. People believe in stay calm and keep working, let the work speak for itself. Almost every super successful introvert person has experienced failure, they accepted it and worked out to much more success. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>6. Sustaining success:</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Being cautious and less expressive outwards, they know how to digest success and sustain it. Even after being successful some people don't let their daily habits change as in case of introverts, helps to keep focusing on the work and not to exaggerate success. To retain success this is vital trait.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>7. Valuing relations and people: </b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Mostly introverts are not always surrounded by people all the time. But they often put great value in relations they have with limited set of people. This helps in personal success, indeed professional success.</span></div>

<i style="color: #073763;"><b>Why it is important to walk that extra mile to achieve success?</b></i></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="color: #073763; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is. It's natural.</span></li>

You became extra ordinary when you start doing that extra every time.</span></span><br />

<i style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #741b47;">#Tendulkar's persistence with talent -</span> </i></h4>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Wonder boys Vinod Kambli and Sachin Tendulkar were new sensation of Indian cricket at the age of 17 and 16 resp.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Both being talented, Kambli played test cricket for India around 2.5 years though he had 2 double tons and batting average of 54. He played has last test at 24.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sachin played for 24 years, breaking almost every possible batting record.</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Did he crossed 10000 hours of practice? oh may be more. There are many evident stories of Sachin's persistence.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sachin probably started practicing his skills at the age of 12, by his age of 23, he became the top batsman in the world.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">55 days non stop - 14 year Tendulkar followed a routine in school cricket season, 2 hours practice in morning play match (4-6 hours) and 2 practice in evening. </span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Coin story - After full day of practice sessions, at the end of the day his coach use to place a coin on the stump and every bowler was challenged to get Tendulkar bowled out. Even after tiring day of practice Sachin would show persistence and bat through. Legend is Sachin had retained most of the coins.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Frugal innovation suggest to simply develop or innovate products and services with optimum resources that reduces the cost of the development, reduces the complexity; resulting in reducing product prices and product maintenance cost.</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Why?</span></span></h4>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In today's modern world we often look up to next big, flashy products. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Every next new product is costly with extension to existing features.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">With every passing day,superlative researches are being done, technology has been changing rapidly.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And we are seeing more and more superficial products, but with increasing price tag.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><b>With such great advances in technology present world, why can't we have better, sustainable products in low price?</b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><b>Do we really need driver less cars or we need some simplistic affordable solutions to prevent accidents and traffic jams?</b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><b><br /></b></i></span></div>
</div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When Henry Ford came up with his innovative model T or A cars, it was not to produce high cost product, but to provide low cost product to every American household. Created revolution.</span><br />
<b style="color: #0b5394; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></b>
<span style="color: #0b5394;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">Frugal innovation focuses on thinking out of the</span></span><span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> box, and work more agile way.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is observed that frugal innovation is most successful in areas under developed where unavailability of resources is common issue. Widely referred as "jugaad -जुगाड़ "</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In India it is mostly observed in rural areas, people innovate to solve day to day needs and challenges.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While urban India is using on high profile global products in high economy.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are many successful examples of products in developing countries like India, China.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Here are 3 examples of superlative low cost solutions, that did not happened in developed super power nations.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lessons we can learn form big giants in their respective fields.How a time and a trend could impact you irrespective of your present situation.</span></div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#Nokia:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Probably everyone once had a Nokia phone. Nokia ha a history of huge popularity and great handsets with a sheer dominance in market.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">What happened? - Apple and android crushed it?</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In recent speech from CEO he quoted, <i><span style="background-color: white;">“we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span></i></span><br />
<i><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></i>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Mostly Nokia was a trusted brand and people looked at it as a quality product. By 2010 iPhone and Android came up with touch screen, ease of use, storage, media and share feature, surpassing Nokia phones.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Nokia known for their sturdy handsets and durable technology phone lost to brittle touch screen phones, and they missed out the fast changing trend.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The advantage you have today may be surpass by the change tomorrow, if you don't learn to adapt, you may thrown out of the competition.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#Kodak:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">Lost to their own fear.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Kodak is well known photo-camera company, most commonly known and used cameras in last millennium.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Pioneer of the digicam, couldn't sustain the new change they started.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Although Kodak developed </span><span style="background-color: white;">a digital camera in 1975, the first of its kind, the product was dropped for fear it would threaten Kodak's photographic film business.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">During 1980s Kodak had a time window of 10 years to take a lead in DigiCam business, but their market research failed to </span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">realize the future and rather focused on their existing photo-film business.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span>

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#Yahoo:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In recent time yahoo sold out for much lesser price than earlier offerings to it.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Very popular in late 90s and early 2000s. Yahoo messenger, chat rooms, yahoo search and yahoo mail were prominent product of yahoo in late 90s.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Yahoo failed to capitalize on these, failed to acquire competitors</span><span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> when offered cheaply and failed to identify customer mindsets, provided opportunities to competitors.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Search - Early 2000s yahoo included third parties for search, while developing its own. Giving ahead to the competitor.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Charges vs Free - Yahoo decided to charge to customers for services where google started with all free, diverting large customer base from yahoo to google.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Rest is history now.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Set in the era of great American depression, inspired from life story of boxer <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_J._Braddock"><span style="color: #0b0080; font-family: sans-serif;"><span style="background: none rgb(255, 255, 255);">James J.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">From the early child hood days, we are being influenced to
pursue more. We want more space, more money, more cars, more cloths, and more
accessories. Everything more than other, running the race of money to get what

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #073763;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><u><i>to serve first</i></u>: Servant first and leader first are two extreme types. Feeling to serve first then aspire to lead is servant leader style. That is sharply different from leader first.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><u><br /></u></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><u><i>put others first</i></u>: Make sure that other people’s highest priority needs are being served. Focusing and measuring on, Do those served grow as persons? do they become healthier, wiser, freer, able to make decisions and improved to be servant? And is the least privileged from the society benefited?</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #073763;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #073763;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #073763;"><i style="font-style: italic;"><u>first
among equals</u></i><i>:</i> A servant leader does not consider him above those he
leads. Rather, he is primus inter pares from Latin, meaning "first in
among equals." That is, he sees those he leads as peers to teach and to
learn from. He is willing to lead others in order to reach a goal, but he
doesn't believe that being the leader makes him better than others.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #073763;"><i style="font-style: italic;"><u>team
builder</u></i><i>:</i> The servant leader is a excellent team builder. Servant leader
will be able to get maximum from the strengths of followers; and will not
hesitate to follow as and when needed. Such a leader doesn't lead by decree.
Instead, he or she leads by allowing everyone to do what they do well.</span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #073763;">There are various leadership styles being practiced and it is subject of
argument to declare any as best. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #073763;">But servant leadership certainly provides a
descent approach that can be practiced in social and corporate world. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #073763;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #073763;">With excessive dominance and fierce competition in present world, can true practitioners of servant leadership survive?</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Some of the meaningful things I have extracted from my little professional experience. Being part of critical, most escalated project is never easy, but we (team) came out of it, took the situation to some better level. Seniors, leads and team worked out with some excellent strategies to overcome anomalies, challenges to build a unit of success, achieve the tough target and make it possible.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">5 key features of leadership in practice –</span></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;">Teams that gel well together, excel in performance:</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">In any industry if people working together have good bond they support each other.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">If team is supports each other then there is very less chances of internal arguments, clashes which helps in increasing productivity.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Friendly environment and healthy competition encourage and motivates to contribute.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">In our terms we say, “<span style="font-weight: bold;">T</span>ogether <span style="font-weight: bold;">E</span>veryone <span style="font-weight: bold;">A</span>chieves <span style="font-weight: bold;">M</span>ore”.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;">Appreciate and not escalate: </span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">True leaders support their teams and appreciate more rather than escalate.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Appreciating small things doesn’t cost much, but in consolidation it creates a huge impact and results are very much positive towards the organization interests.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;">Escalation - hold your nerves and do the best you can:</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">When everyone is questioning over abilities and efforts of your team then giving up is never an option, only your best work is the answer to any situation. By taking positively escalations can be converted into appreciations, only by means of thorough professional and best approach towards the job.</span></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;">True leaders – create leaders not followers:</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">True leaders focus on encouraging teams to think beyond obvious, allows taking risks.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">They believes inputs from every level has importance and don’t hesitate to accept faults.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">A lead promotes the potential of individual and helps in achieving their goals along with project tasks.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">It’s like that, if you give a fish to hungry man, you will be able to help him once; but if you teach him fishing, you have helped him for lifetime.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-weight: bold;">People at ground makes the difference:</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">No matter how much rules and best practices we apply, it is vital to have passionate and committed people at the ground, who do the actual work.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Passionate people about their work doesn’t much bother on escalation and appreciation, they set their own bench mark of job satisfaction and perform at par.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Commitment towards anything is very important. It helps in meet deadlines without much forcing to people, reduce the follow-ups and shares the responsibility.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Heights and strength of any pyramid is depends on its base.</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> <br /> All these terms are by the people I have been around with. It’s never like we had smooth sailing project by having these practices but we have learn to adjust our sails according to winds and keep it on waves in storms.</span></span><br />
