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.

'The Secret' to everything - Rhonda Byrne

The power of positivity is enormous.  Human mind is designed to protect us from different types of threats. Whenever we feel threat from something brain chemicals activates for protection. Since a child start understanding language he / she is exposed to variety of thoughts.  Those thoughts are mix of negative and positive emotions, fear,  truth, lies, hope,  heroism and many other things, both wanted and unwanted.

Ransom Email??? DO NOT PANIC.

My eye doctor told me couple years back, everything happens first time in life. Ransom Email, I heard this term more than often. But first time I received a ransom email. It carries a threat message, which says I must need to pay $2900 in bit coins. If I won't the sender will make all my data public including family. Next could be your turn. DO NOT GET PANIC IF YOU GET A RANSOM EMAIL REPORT IT TO LAW ENFORCEMENT.

One step at a time could be your productivity hack

Productivity in work requires learning beyond work hours. When you are writing a blog post, recording an youtube video or showing most important slides in the meeting room you are not most relaxed. Awesome things happens when you are most relaxed, remember Archimedes and his Eureka Eureka ? Often we try to force too hard which is compulsory too but hard that we do it once and then quit unknowingly. So what about taking one step at a time, may be it won't cause you miracle but be over time the task most difficult to you may look easy later. 1 is powerful, do one, zeros will add up. Keep doing, Hack Gaps . How much to do when it's not interesting but results are good, fruitful and worth. Read one line a day . Write one sentence a day . Learn one new word a day . Give 1 smile a day . Comment below 1 social media post a day . Clean 1 object a day . Bake 1 piece of bread a day . Become hostel ready . Boil 1cup hot water a day . Water 1 flower pot a day . Eat 1 healthy meal a day . H...
