Calibration!

The beauty of calibration is that it clearly tells us that we are at a stage after finding something imperfect. It also acknowledges that you can tune up to reduce imperfection.

Calibration represents an opportunity to spot an inadequacy and tune the solution until we are sure of its usefulness. The calibration process teaches us that it is ok to iterate on the solution until it is close to a state of proper utility. State of equilibrium. 

Calibration is using feedback and bringing anything close to the desired concept of a perfect model.

Doesn't Innovation involve iterating and improving something? Innovation often needs iteration a thrives on the process of calibration.

Innovation can work only when something exists with imperfection and needs a change to improve utility. 

We bring changes to things we do for a better, more accessible, and more efficient experience.

Calibration means an adjustment. It moves us in an improved direction. It makes you pause and inspect. As such, it makes us progress! 

Calibrate everything! Iteratively and, importantly, routinely!

Checks and balances!

Defining a good purpose, setting a target goal and getting people working on them is usually not enough! There are too many aspects involved in getting the results we want. For example, there is an aspect of painting the big picture, working on motivation management, productivity tracking, building experimentation labs, and erecting resilient systems that systematize the workflows. Just putting bodies to work and defining milestones rarely achieves the right results. The other aspects that help march towards the milestones in an orderly manner, they are equally important. At the very least, they make objectives widely understandable and results more attainable. The job of a thought leader is to enable progress and enable recovery. Therefore, it is never enough to have just ideas. Those with ideas also have the responsibility to assemble the work environment in such a way as to create situations containing the energy disperses. Energy dispersal from lack of clarity, loss of motivation, ...

The hyacinth at the surface - nectar - just beneath!

The envy of comparison is an unconscious, quietly growing emotion, like water hyacinth spreading unnoticed on a pond's surface. It surrounds the nectar of the water, creating the illusion of poison. The water itself, however, is inherently sweet, with the nectar infused deeply within it. But just cast off the tangled trap of those creeping vines, and the water will reveal its true nature—flowing freely, tirelessly, with a sparkling clarity. Water’s existence, its entire journey, is one of cooperation, of giving endlessly with a pure heart.  Even in the face of numerous obstacles and thorns along its path, water remains undeterred—a divine miracle, no doubt, but one forged through relentless effort. Who notices this journey? Who understands it? Water has no respite—it constantly battles friction and wear. "Why is this thorny life my lot?" It may ask, as feelings of resentment, anger, jealousy, hatred, sorrow, and helplessness arise. Just when it seems trapped, its spirit s...

Adopt beliefs and then adapt them often!

We get fixated in viewing surroundings through a narrow lens of gained experiences. Our beliefs form based on what we make of those experiences. Each experience reinforces to core of thinking we lean for making decisions about our day to day decisions.  On a good day it is not uncommon to witness a formation of a belief! Life events, unexpected outcomes make is revisit the foundations we stand on to make ourselves visible and act. It leads to adaptation of our foundational core that we take for granted. Adaptation of foundational core is vital source of energy and paves a way new experiences that broaden our perspectives. It we feel lost often then it is a sign that foundational core needs adaptation. We must adjust the core enough to get a different view from a different angle For the core to adapt, we must force new experiences. What we know served us well. Until now. We must find a new foundational core to stand on. The one that works for us now. Adopt beliefs that serve our pre...
