THE JUGAAD
JUGAAD NOTHING WORKS ACCORDINGTO THE PLAN
Jugaad is a Hindi word that roughly translated as " overcoming hash constraints by improvising an effective solution using limited resources. THINK FRUGAL , BE FLEXIBLE
There was never a business plan or a elevator pitch prepared. Being out there, doing things & being seen was more important. Things never happen like in an excel sheet. GET THINGS DONE.PERIOD.
THE SHOW
SHOW FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT
You don't want to be dishonest or disingenuous, but you do want to visualise what success would look like and behave as if you already fit the part LIVE TOMORROW,TODAY.
It's like a man riding a lion. People think, " This guys's brave" . And he's thinking, ' How he he'll did I get on a lion,and how do I keep from getting eaten?" LIVE TOMORROW,TODAY.
