A Laptop Story that relates to your business, my business and any business

I drink bandwidth,
That is my favorite one liner about me.
Bandwidth is new nutrition for me. Else it could be , Paraffin. Kerosene, Electricity and what not? You could have a good laugh about this later, I am not a lamp born before Edison, Period.
Being born in a village I used to do my sums on a slate in the very light of Kerosene and my pet a buffalo enjoying her rest in the other corner.
Laptop is a new modern tool, something that gives me a helping hand now to do work.
I am a researcher without a doctorate by chance or choice which I won't bother till I have the ability to dig deeper in all the four directions. I am not earning enough to fund my research but I would love to go for it as soon as I can. Perhaps it's not the problems of funding but willingness to take that extra pain.
Anyway beyond my research I create web architecture, write technical, educational and business content and take the responsibilities to fail. My research focuses on IT business development and businesses feed me bread and butter to fail.
Entrepreneurship is something that I am doing on the other side of the table indeed not scaled yet for various reasons. The sole purpose is so I can help others.
OK.
A few people love to call me DK while some call me Freelancer who assume me as a fellow of use. This is common behavior we cannot control. Learning matters.
I was scheduled to meet this gentleman I have been associated with for nearly the last two decades in Mumbai in a top class hotel.
Why or why not leave it to me.
Key discussions happen.
and I questioned what about my Laptop? Well, this piece was noted well along with other priorities on the same piece of paper. A couple days later I selected a few models and asked to provide the same.
======================================================
Fill this gap with your choice of words
======================================================
Here is why I asked despite the fact that I am not in a permanent role? And, I don’t like taking gifts. You won’t like having a cup of coffee with you in Starbucks if I cannot afford myself, I will simply refuse.
Well,
1. I thought let's see the reaction.
2. How will I benefit the company?
3. What would be my answer if he asked why?
Well, the laptop was provided with a very old model which can do basic clerical work only and it went against my plan. Perhaps those guys did not need more than a clerk, else it was thoughtful. Or maybe it's between important and not important.
Our team with which I am associated and happy need serious help. So to access a few things a  better device is essential. Of course I won't spend my earnings for such a business which is not mine.
We need tools to cut the grass. But we cannot use the same tool to cut the green grass and a tree trunk.
But,
To hack gaps, what matters is the man behind the machine.
Over to you.
Kerosene to Bandwidth ......
The learning is, enterprises should think and rethink before taking actions to build that sustainable business, growth model and make a fortune.

Build your brand with respect

"Respect is a thing that you wear round the clock. Whether you are at home, you are in office or simply you are doing nothing under silent skies. Respect is earned, you cannot trade respect for something money, power or social connections. Respect is built slowly; it's a byproduct of learning. Learn, learn, learn." Businesses are built around humans. Many personal brands come and join hands together to build that big brand which makes a difference and makes people's lives better. Many personal brands when joined with due respect build a great product, it could be anything towards any direction and it adds values. Take any example from any sphere of life, personal, professional or business and you will find that that big name that earned this much level of respect was backed by so many personal brands, so many helping hands, so many people in small and big capacities. Business branding is not only about catchy punchlines, lively graphics and number of connections. Of c...
