Dissecting the MBA way!!

Call it a 4P, 3C (alright, i have learned ABC new way:)). And then its about MR= MC. Interesting is the fact that marketing exploits all the constraints that economics puts in books.

 If economics says that price should be constant if many players stay in market, marketing says that you differentiate and create a new market. 

If economics says that you can at max value your product based on consumer surplus available, marketing says call it value based pricing and forget that there was ever a slanting line which said consumer surplus existed. 

So, i am loving it. The point is, i never believed in constraints. So, i go with marketing. I agree that nature will find its balance and finally economics principles will even out the playing field, only to make a firm move into new market and create a new imbalance. 

After all, business is all about generating values out of gaps, the moment equillibrium is achieved, business stops making sense. Business in every form is dynamic, fast moving, and opportunistic. 

The knowledge of constraints just lets you know, till when can you survive in same game. 

Given globalization and competition, economies achieve equlibrium faster, and hence the survival of business is becoming more and more challenging.

How do You define "EMOTIONS"!!

It was a blank face among all colors.

 

The face was pretty, mind was innocent, but there were no hopes. 

Life had moved on, but hopes were left behind.

Expectations and hope have been the most painful parts of human life, intangible, yet most damaging.

 

Still, everyone hopes, till there is last breath left. 

I stand in one corner to see hopes behind faces in all forms and colors, i smile and move on.

 

I know life plays big games, it sells big dreams, and then mere mortal humans, they feel happy because they feel hope is reality.

One fine day, everything will break away, the colors will fade, all hopes will go, left will be a bundle of painful emotions for something which never existed..

Internet and Gaming- Are you Addicted??

Well what you are going to read now is something which is very hard to believe in the real world. Who said internet and gaming is just changing our lives? But it is also risking our lives.A recent spate of deaths in Korea - mostly of teenagers and young adults has sparked a serious debate on problems faced in this technological age.

There are actually treatment centers being set up to deal with this growing problem. Treatments such as counseling and medication are being prescribed to help curb this serious addiction.Children and teenagers who play excessively often do so at the expense of homework and playing solo can isolate children from their peers, potentially causing problems for them later in life.

It has been also suggested, though not confirmed, that the Virginia Tech shooter, Cho Seung-Hui, may have played the popular first-person-shooter game Counter-Strike in high school.
And recently a student got kicked out of school for making a Counter-Strike map of the school.
A study found that adolescents who play violent video games may exhibit lingering effects on brain function, including increased activity in the region of the brain that governs emotional arousal and decreased activity in the brain’s executive function, which is associated with control, focus and concentration.

In India, the Internet Addiction Disorder is fast taking pace. Internet addiction can refer to a range of behaviors. One may be the online gaming or gambling addict, the pornography addict, or the ‘information junkie’ who surfs the internet for random information, often trivia. There are those who are addicted to chatting online or those who engage in compulsive cyber sex.
Dr Latha Nithyananda a clinical psychologist puts it in a very simple way “when you are aware that you spend too much time online but can’t stop, you have crossed the line into addiction”; “You have lost control, and the net is dictating how long you are staying online.”
With around 43 million online users in India (According to IAMAI) - and around 38% of them identified as ‘Heavy Users’, there is no doubt that India is now experiencing an internet boom, and this makes it all the more important that we become more aware of potential hazards of too much time spent online

Wilted Leaves...

The fact is that I did not know how to understand anything! I ought to have judged by deeds and not by words. She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from her... I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flower are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her..."

"Nothing is more painful then realizing she meant everything to you and you meant nothing to her.I wish i cud go away 4m ur leaf n neva come back...but i know u wont miss me....n i guess thats wat hurts the utmost."

"Gently the leaves of memory fall,slowly i gather i pick them all,2day 2mrw my whole life through will treasure these memories n remember them too"

What i learnt is that man and woman belong to 2 different species but the communication between them is in infancy.
Anything in life needs to be kept at some minute distance...you can't see your own hand clearly if it is too close!!
I love you and it doesnt matter if you love me back because i rather live for the chance than die from the truth.

As i turn back the pages.............

Touch!!

A STRANGE WIND,SMELLS THOSE SAME MOMENTS;
SOME UNDISCOVERED VOICES,LIGHTENS UP THOSE DARK APPEARENCE;
THE SAME AIR THAT I BREATH,THE SAME VASTNESS WHERE I BELONG,THE SAME WIND THAT TOUCHES ME,ALSO TOUCHES U...THAT FIRST DEW,STILL SEEMS 2 BE SO NEW;
THOSE WINDS,MOMENTS AND MEMORIES WANTED 2 SING A SWEET MELODY,BUT SLOWLY THEY MARCHED INTO AN OCEAN OF MELANCHOLY;
THOSE DAYS,THOSE MOMENTS,BY WHICH ONCE I WANTED 2 WEAVE A SWEET ND MEMORABLE DREAM,MOURNFULLY TURNED INTO AN UNFORGOTABLE NIGHTMARE; MY LIFE PLAYED A VERY RARE GAME WITH ME,THAT WAS VERY UNFAIR;
IT WAS NECESSARY 4 ME 2 WIN,SO I DID;
BUT STILL WHY DO I SEEM 2 LOOSE?IT WAS NECESSARY 4 ME 2 4GET,SO I DID;
BUT STILL WHY DO I SEEM 2 REMEMBER?IT WAS NECESSARY 4 ME 2 WASH THOSE TOUCHES,SO I DID;
BUT STILL,WHY DO I SEEM 2 FEEL THEM IN MY ENTIRE EXISTENCE?WILL I BE ABLE 2 WASH THOSE TOUCHES EVER?OR,WILL THEY HAUNT ME 4EVER?

Life is such a Master!!

What can be more heartbreaking then to find all your well laid(made) plans destroyed by new unwelcome developments.
Today i am realizing the true meaning of "Man proposes God disposes".
No! I haven't lost anything nor have i failed in something.
These are repurcussions that I am seeing out of the situation i am in.
Am i thinking too much ahead??? Am i reading too much into the script??? I am starting to realize that doing this will only lead to unwanted tensions and unknown pressures.
Here's what i plan to do. Leave the situation as it is and wait for the right time to understand more.
Live for the day... think tomorrow. How I hope that this philosophy is correct.....
