How To Get Business Ideas #MorningWalkMethod

I have seen people complaining that its not easy to find Sustainable Business Ideas. Quite honestly, I have faced this question myself. But as it appears to me now, its not difficult at all. 
A few years back, I took a look at Forbes list of Top 30 companies. The list included names like Apple, Microsoft, Volkswagen, IBM. IT certainly had an array of companies. And I was surprised at how I analysed the findings. Here a the findings. 

#McDonalds was ranked 9th. If you look at its business model, in simple words, it sells Burgers.

#Coca-Cola was ranked 13th . It’s business is that of selling soft drinks.

Thus, I concluded that the essence of a Sustainable business idea is it dependent on how it connects with people. Many a Times McDonalds has beat the biggies like Microsoft. Why, because it serves people directly. No business idea is small. You can sell burgers and become millionaire or you can sell trucks and cars and may find it tough to sustain. 

Today, I noticed that many a small vendors have opened small makeshift stalls near the jogging park. They sell the healthy fruit juices, health magazines, newspapers. The thing came to my notice today that these people have effectively found out the needs of people. That’s an issential component of a sustainable business idea.

You might be still thinking what I have told. Let me help you further. Let’s take an example that you are looking for a business idea in the field of Manufacturing products related to FMCG. The good way to find out will be, going to the local park, observing what style and material people prefer these days. Or take a stroll to the nearby supermarket where products similar to your conception are sold. Observe the reception different products are getting.

If you are planning for the business in Electronics segment, textiles segment, footwear segment or many other segments you will find an array of products in the jogging park.

I humbly accept that it was only a small contribution to your search for a business idea. However, I strongly believe that no idea is a super hit, no idea is a super flop. Ideas are only to get you started. You can improvise a lot on the basic idea. You can think about a different approach for the same idea. And #MorningWalkMethod surely helps because of one simple reason, we are more attentive and imaginative in the mornings. We think without minimal distractions in the mornings. And more importantly we think positive in the mornings.

A Happy Couple #SecretOfHappyMarriage

A morning walk is a collage of different emotions. I get to walk a lot of happy faces every morning. When I come back from the walk, I come with the impression of these faces on my mind. I have always felt lucky that I live at the location where people of every religion, every status live in harmony. These days the month of Ramadan is progressing. I saw the happy faces of 2 of fellow Muslim morning walkers. It felt like they had washed themselves in the holy waters of peace. They appeared like the symbol of peace in their white kurtas. 

At one point I felt sad that such a beautiful religion, preaching of love And peace is wrongly catalogued these days. 

Today is Saturday, for me, this is a lazy morning. My body and mind are craving for Sunday. They get the rest on Sunday. It had rained yesterday and i couldn’t jog as the track had become muddy. 

I came back from walk with the impression of a Happy couple on my mind. This couple had come for The walk. It was an ordinary couple. They were both in there mid thirties. The extranordinary thing I got to witness was, they were really in love with each other. They seemed to enjoy each others company. For them the world did not exist. It seemed that they had found love recently. But looking at how comfortable they were, I thought they were married for quite some time now. There love and happiness set me thinking for the secret they shared. I found the secret of happy married life today. At least, I think I have.

The secret of happy married life, or the happy life for that matter, lies in sharing. The couple was happy because they shared the most important thing in the world- TIME. They took time to be with each other. They took steps towards happiness. They knew what’s it that both of them enjoyed. And they took time to enjoy it together.

Many of us want to know, where the secret of happy life lies. They search for it in the books and movies. They also seek professional help to improve their marriage. But the secret is simple. All you need to do is to spend time with each other. Find out what’s it that both of you enjoy. It might not be the morning walk. But, I sincerely believe and have observed that all of us have the set of likings and dislikings. Among the married couples there are atleast a couple of common things that both of them enjoy. It might be food, the sex, the meditation, the religious activities, the music, the literature etc. But there are things that both the husband and wife like. For happy married life, I believe, its important that we find time to spend time with each other doing things both the partners enjoy.

This will establish and strengthen the special bond of love between husband and wife. This will make the couple crave for each others company when they aren’t near. This will make them fall in love with each other again and again. And most importantly, this will form memories they will cherish their lifetime.

The Girl in Dustbin #LifeIsGood

I go for morning walk almost on daily basis. Morning walks have been an important part of my routine for years. I wake up with a confused mind. And then I decide to change how I feel. I wish to feel happier. I wish to feel different. In wish to go out and get a speed in my life. If I did not run, I will stop, I know that. And I should run if I can and not scrawl on my fours.

 Only sometimes I really get tired and avoid getting from the bed. The sweet morning sleep is certainly a bliss. It has started raining now. And now I find all the more reasons to not wake up in the morning. I really don’t like the clumsy surroundings. 

 I did not enjoy today’s walk so much. Though the atmosphere was pleasant. Greenery is slowly spreading her legs around. The roadsides that looked pale and sad a week ago has got greenish hue on it. As the monsoon will progress the atmosphere will become greener and happier. 

It is custom in Indian cities to throw the garbage on roadside. The municipal corporations do keep the large metallic dustbins on roadsides. But not many civilians like to take pains to walk to the dustbin. The fact that dustbins smell a lot add to this lazy behaviour. I have made it a routine to throw my garbage in right way. Every morning.

Today while coming back from walk, I noticed that a girl was inside the dustbin. She was a young girl might be in the age of 18 to 20. The girl of fair complexion. She was sorting the garbage from dustbin into biodegradable and not biodegradable. I looked at her and felt that she will look like a really beautiful girl if she cleans up and wears a nice dress. Only thing was, she was born into a family where she had to do this stuff. Not that it is bad.

Sometimes we get depressed with our lives. Sometimes life seems fo unfair and unjust to us. But, it really isn’t so. When I looked at that girl in dustbin sadly enough I felt good for myself. Sometimes someone’s loss is our gain. This time her loss of luck gave me an insight that I need to feel better for myself. We all should feel better for ourselves. Life is beautiful.
