Driving a Corporate? Be Aware of ABC First!!

November 6, 2010

One evening of early winter days, i was sitting relaxed from my work, however many clumsy thoughts were floating in mind. Suddenly, I came up with this strange but thoughtful idea about any Corporate’s Journey from Zero to Hero!

When an entrepreneur forms an entity, he intends to drive it to the top as fast as he can. Looking towards such outstanding success stories across the biz world, observer within me unfolded its relativity with what we were taught as ABC while taking classes for our driving licence (Many of us might have heard of this, right?)

As it stands in driver’s ABC:

A stands for Accelerator

B stands for Brake

C stands for Clutch

So one has to have better ability to synchronize use of above three tools to be a  part of smooth and safe journey to success..

Accelerator in business  is about using a pace subject to outer conditions,  so choose the right speed for the given circumstances, Be aware that you don’t collide!! and make sure that you keep moving ahead no matter if it’s a tiny step or a Big Leap!

Having fun with accelerator, makes it necessary to have a neck in use of Brakes in this journey….this could be meant as keeping a patience at times or waiting for the right time to grab the right opportunities.  It would also mean to use the hand brake, as a cycle of time will always bring one to the point much higher on success ladder from where you may slip down if you were careless for even a single moment. So use brake, it is Important!

Clutch is the step by step process from childlike firm to Giant Empire.

Say 1st Gear is to start-up and have handy control on the business

2nd to see and gradually increase the speed of selling and production.

3rd is to maintain the balance in the competitive market.

4th is the stage of innovation & Creation

5th is the stage where one can be on express way to success reaching to the top and being there with stability.

Thus if one takes this entire process as journey, he will be the one of few who enjoys and gets the filling of fulfillment of vision.

Many of us have been taught to this driver’s ABC. Now aligning it in such a way to your life will keep you aware of your own journey to success and tools you have to drive through it, what you think?

Share your experiences on your real life situations that match any of above tools…I know you had…we all had…but the difference now is We are Aware…I open this discussion and sharing with on of my favorite quotes: “Don’t Beware, Be Aware!!” It always makes difference!
