Just Learned in 2015



- Once you talk L-E-A-N, "Why Why Analysis" is the first step of ladder; "Identifying" "Replication", "Flow Analysis" or for that matter "Perfecting the Cause" comes later.

- Also, targeting waste directly with focussed variation (generally, by Trial & Error Method) helps in eliminating waste in more efficient manner.

- Important part of "KAIZEN", taking feedback from your Human Assets.

- At last it's TEAM (with capital "T" in it) and not just bunch of Individuals.

The path would never be smooth... If someone has invested 53 years ago in Warren Buffett’s company, Berkshire Hathaway, he would have made a return of 2,404,748% returns. Yes, you read it right. We all know about the huge wealth creation by Buffett. Stock markets would always be volatile. At the cost of repetition, 10% correction once a year, 20% fall once in few years and 30% fall once a decade is very normal. Don’t panic. This is how markets work. During the journey of last 53 years, though the company was growing leaps and bounds, Berkshire share price had suffered four major falls. Between March 1973 to January 1975, it fell by 59.1% In a single month, in October 1987, it fell by 37.1% Between June 1998 and March 2000, it fell by 48.9% During the global recession, between September 2008 to March 2009, it fell by 50.7% Though huge wealth was created by anyone who invested in Berkshire, the above four falls would have been gut-wrenching.

Road Trip from Bengaluru to Yercaud

 During the Good Friday weekend [April 1st week], we wanted to move out and needed to be back before Sunday as our son had his culminating ceremony after his 3 years in Montessori. As we were planning to take out our Cheetah for a roaring drive, one of my acquaintances called me that he has started his camping business in Yercaud and that I should visit it once. And Bingo the plan was made as Yercaud is 240 km away from Bengaluru where we stay, and the roads are also awesome. We packed our bags the night before, and on the 7th around 5:30 we left for Yercaud and reached at 10:30 with 2 stops of 10 mins & 30 mins [ At Aahaa Family Restaurant ] respectively. This restaurant is on the route itself, so no detour. * Route Taken: Electronic City -> Hosur -> Krishnagiri -> Karimangalam -> Bommidi -> Poomarathoor -> Kolagur -> Karadiyoor -> Wild Troupe. Route * Total Distance: 480 km [To & Fro] * Trip Dates: 7th & 8th * Mileage: 15.2 & 14.6 [AC on fu...
