SIMPLE RECIPE TO THINK THROUGH CONSTRAINTS


    Whenever you get into a situation of confusion, remember a journey of travel you have undertaken in the past

    e.g going to coimbatore or bangalore from chennai …

  1. All that you do is to decide the destination and target date
  2. Then look for buying ticket..if class of your choice not available, you will book the next best. If train not available you will try bus, if not air..BUT NEVER DEVIATE from the goal of reaching the destination on that date.
  3. Again once ticket is booked you plan everything else, like what to take, whom to inform etc., try to reach station before the departure time. HERE IF THERE ARE ANY CONSTRAINTS ON THE WAY, OR LAPSES ON YOUR PART you will not worry and abandon the trip. You try to find a means and methods to rectify or overcome the constraints and MOVE ahead.
  4. Next on board also, in your many journeys you must have experienced lot of discomfitures, difficulties, constraints, set backs during journey like e.g no proper food, no water in compartment or unclean areas, may be cockroaches etc.. But you overlook, overcome them and KEEPING FOCUS on the GOAL and try to reach the destination..
  5. You can think of AIR travel too similarly.
  6. IT IS SUCH A SMALL AND SIMPLE PRINCIPLE ONE CAN FOLLOW IN LIFE TOO.
