Frontier Space - formation of INformation through search instead of REsearch

What is inspiration? Where does it come from? There are no easy answers to these questions, no formulas to follow or guidelines to go by. The source of inspiration could be anywhere, anytime from any one in anyway, and the destination of inspiration-triggered innovation should be the right thing in right time in right place.

Let me give you a live example. We are working on a cool project with an already inspired goal, yet whose solution has been painfully searching for a couple of months. Suddenly we found the simplest and also the most beautiful solution. Is that cool? Should we had worked even harder to come up with an inferior and plain solution, it would lead us to go to a wrong direction, hence problem unsolved.

In high-tech industry, if you are a bootstrapping startup without deep pockets, to succeed, or at least to survive, you have to be really innovative, which means you have to come up with products and/or services based innovative technology and/or business model, that no one else in the world, both in industry and in academia. has ever had. Nowhere, in research journals, in technical conferences, in textbooks, has the solution except in your mind. I am proud to brag that we are really good at it.

Innovation through Inspiration, whether disruptive one or non-disruptive one, we really love it. So working smarter instead of working harder

Alvin Tofller mentioned in his book titled War and Anti-War, that since Vietnam War, the US army has managed to shift it goal from spatial-oriented to temporal-oriented, which lead to the success of the Desert Operation at Iraq in early 1990s. What’s next after temporal-oriented goal? I think the answer might be back to personal-oriented goal. Indeed it is back to old days again when there was no high-tech at the battlefields at all.

People are the key on top of any technology, on top of both space and time. I Think Therefore I am, let us keep the world peace, compete in the business arena instead of battlefields. From personal to spatial, from spatial to temporal, and now it is turn of from temporal to personal again

No one will doubt the importance of technology innovation, business innovation (business model, business process among others), however the most important thing is thought innovation - quoted from Zhengrong Shi, Chairman and CEO of Suntech Power, NYSE: STP

People, people, people, and what is beyond?

Mindset, mindset, mindset

All of human being’s happiness, sadness, and indifference among other emotional statuses are due to consciousness. Consciousness once of the key characteristics that differs life to matter.

Do you feel the pressure of living? Do you have the burden of consciousness? When we are aggressively studying the world surrounding us, technology, business, culture, environment, etc., how about do we know about ourselves?  The essence of life, the nature of consciousness, the origin of intelligence, just to name a few

Do you do accounting? If you do, you must be very familiar with those financial statements such as balance sheet, income statement, and cash-flow statement. A balance sheet is a snapshot of a business’s financial condition at a specific moment in time, usually at the close of an accounting period. A balance sheet comprises assets, liabilities, and owners’ or stockholders’ equity. Assets and liabilities are divided into short- and long-term obligations including cash accounts such as checking, money market, or government securities. At any given time, assets must equal liabilities plus owners’ equity. An asset is anything the business owns that has monetary value. Liabilities are the claims of creditors against the assets of the business. 

The balance sheet is considered the heart of the accounting system. The accounting equation represents the relationships on the Statement of Financial Condition in terms of a mathematical statement. Assets = Liabilities + Owners’ Equity. So balance is the essence of accounting, and accounting is definitly not a rocket science

Make it balanced, whether in business or in life
