There seems to be some principles to add to the frustrations of the mortals like us…
There has been a lot of studies on how and why things go wrong like this
whe

ings

One of them is a mathematical theory
THEORY OF CHAOS…
whe

THEORY OF CHAOS…
the world around us is the result of complete chaos
everything that is taking place around us is totally out of chance only
small changes can have a large consequence

Now that things went wrong, what to do?

Programme Implementation…
OUR APPROACH…!Conduct feasibility studies…
Prepare plans
Arrange logistics
LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST conduct Poojarequesting the Almighty to prevent any possible miss-happening…
whe

But there’s another interesting approach
DEFENCIVE DESIGNING
an approach that evolved out of a law called
MURPHY’S LAW
whe
n th
ings

wro

Murphy’s Law
Year 1949
Edwards Air Force Base, California, USA
Project MX981: project designed to see how much sudden deceleration a person can stand in a crash
Project Engineer Capt. Edward A. Murphy finds one of the instruments wired worng

Murphy’s Law
Mruphy screams at the technician
"If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it."
Murphy’s assistant adds this to a checklist
whe

Spirit of Murphy’s Law…
"If anything can go wrong, it will”
Lot’s of people used their heads to derive many more conclusions
•"If there's more than one way to do a job, •and one of those ways will result in disaster, •then somebody will do it that way."
whe
n th
ings

Spirit of Murphy’s Law…
"If anything can go wrong, it will”
Lot’s of people used their heads to derive many more conclusions
•If there is a possibility of several things going wrong,
•the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong
whe
n th
ings

Spirit of Murphy’s Law…
"If anything can go wrong, it will”
Lot’s of people used their heads to derive many more conclusions
•‘If everything seems to be going well, •you have obviously overlooked something’

‘Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse’
whe
n th

wro
ng… Back to PROJECT MX 981…
"If anything can go wrong, it will”
This became the parameter for designing and checking each and every step of the project
Result : one of the most efficient shock protection systems developed
Aerospace manufacturers picked it up for their daily use…
whe
n th
ings
go
wro
ng… Moral of the story!!!
CHAOS theory suggests…
Despite all our planning, events in our lives are just a matter of chance
99.99% possibility that something you expect will not happen that way
Going wrong is integral to the nature of the universe
whe
n th
ings
go
wro
ng… Moral of the story!!!
MURPHY’S Law suggests…
If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will anyway.
Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse
If you want something bad enough, chances are you will not get it
whe
n th
ings
go
wro
ng… PERHAPS the productive approach…
Accept that ‘going wrong’ is an integral part of each and every breath we take
So let’s not to leave the ball on Almighty’s Court…
Explore all aspects that can go wrong at each and every step
And do the best we can to prevent them…
whe
n th
ings

and to consider murphy’s philosophy
Smile todaytomorrow will be worse!
