Important lesson learned at MIT (Massachussets Institute of Technology, NOT MAPUA IT)

The author became a MULTIMILLIONAIRE.  Do you want to be one.  Just like him ?  (He became CEO of his company.)  He used to be a runaway and street boy at Mumbai.  









I worked under one such grad when I became an EVP of Savings and Loan Assocation.   I used to hate him, but adjusted him and we became a friend in Land Rover club where we now show our own vehicles and as equals.  Learned a lot from him on leadership and management

Learning from MIT (an Ivy League School)

1.  Understand and love the system

    There were many hacksk committed at the top of dome of MIT:   cars assembled on top, flags, and many more done by the students.  They beat the system and they had fun.

    You must love the system and then have fun.  You cant beat and hate the system.
(We have people who say we dont have system.

    Be even able to hack the system.  (Many do cross the line and become criminals.or our competitor)

2.  Firehose test.

    Students were exposed to loads of work that they cant seem to finish.   This develops ingenuity of what should be finished.   You ask the question, how can I cope?

    It develops ingenuity.  

    1.  Time management
    2.  Prioritization
    3.  Cooperation and collaboration

    Purpose  is NOT EQUAL TO  PURPOSE.

     Purpose is:

                 1  Impacful
                 2  Important
                 3.  Irreversible

   We have recruits who complain at slightest hint of hard work, and complexity


3.  Find the first principles

     Problems, challenges can be daunting.  Especially innovation.  Find the first principle.   Break down everything into basic parts.    And then it becomes easier.

     Steps:   Find   1.  Facts
                            2.  Aspiration (your goals)
                            3.  Do tests (experiments)

      Elon Musk used this in changing the business/rocket science.   He found out that
      single use rocket launches are very complex and expensive (NASA made it so)  and found out that rocket launch is only 2% of what NASA spends.  And from there
EM built a multi million Space ex business

 4. Mind and hand approach

     Being practical.  Leave the academic and book part.  Do something practical
     FInd the MVP (Minimum Viable Product and improve on this)  An MVP is better 
     than no product at all.  You can improve a prototype but not on nothing

     Practice

     1  Building the product
     2,  Test
     3.  Go to the first principle

      At MIT they have a one month period where students do this to present to the VC.  And they end up owning new venures, financed by Venture Capital


  5.  You do not graduate alone even if you are the smartest guy in the room.  

      You need a team, you need collaboration. you need a mastermind.  though
     how smart you are.  John Maxmell term it as the Law of the Lid.  All of major
     discoveries and invention now are results of team effort.

     This idea makes you humble  and become less of pain in the ass.

FOR CLARITY REGARDING PRESENCE OF A SYSTEM, ABCD, SUNNAO comments on todays gmeet






Hello Sir,

I have read it and understood. 
Thank you for the clarity regarding the topics on gmeet. 

Thank you,

Memorandum

To:     All

Thru:    CCS

CC:  Madel

Subject:   February 19,, 2026

Objective:

    1.  To achieve efficiency by having people follow a uniform process  or system
    2.  To move as a community forward
    3.   To achieve viability and continuity by being profitable

Background

   1.   An elderly employee was less than truthful regarding her timing in and then
         attending to personal matter, and doing the payroll herself, failed to deduct
         her undertime

   2.  A staff mentioned about her previous employer (not a nice topic when we
       are enjoined to observe FAR

  3.  An elderly staff discussed generically about cash advance, but the topic assigned was about revolving fund and pcf.  not a good communication or initiative to research

  4.  An elderly staff answered that we do not have system!!??

  5.  Closed mind talaga isa pang elderly:    injecting her agenda despite a prescribed
        agenda

What to do:

    1.  Practice SUNNAO.   Empty your cup.   Nothing will be poured into your cup if
        its full.

    2.  Observe ABCD DOCTRINE

         ACCEPT

        BELIEVE

        COOPERATE

        DANCE WITH THE MUSIC

   3.  LISTEN

        1  Hear with your ear,  LISTEN WITH YOUR HEART

        2.  A doctor can cure you by asking you questions and listening to you.

       3.  Dale Carnegie prescribes listening as an important practice in winning
            friends  and influence people

       How can we achieve our goal and be successful when certain people are hell
       bent on disagreeing (rather than agreeing)  right even the conversation starts

    4.  A SYSTEM IS IN PLACE

      Many new hires comment in a similar manner as we have heard today:  But that is 
      being objected to vehemently by this post.  No effort has been spared to 
      strengthen our system by documenting this properly at:

      1.   MC
      2.  Handbook
      3.  Admin plans
      4  Memoranda
      5.  Gmeet and  and seminars /workshop

      The only problems lies in:

     1.  Closed mind
     2.   Lack of ABCD, FAR, 3fold duties
     3.  Living in the past:   mentioning past jobs always.  (They can always return
          to previous employers if they are so endeared)

   5.  ENJOINING BETTER COMMUNICATION BY MONITORING APPOINTING SOMEONE TO CHECK ON COMMUNICATIONS.   Ms Tina please monitor


   Memo     Date      Title                             SBUs

   Legend to place in the sbu column

       1.  R read and replied
       2.  D   Understood
       3   WD.  Workshopped being done
