REAL LIFE TRADE OFF AND ITS
IMPORTANCE
This is a small incident in my
life which made me to think differently. When this incident happened I was not
aware of the word "Trade off". It was an ideology that got developed
with in me without a heading. But later as I grown up the ideology got matured.
I named this ideology as “ REAL LIFE TRADE OFF “ and found this is very
important in real life decision making.
When I was 12 year old, a
situation comes up and first time I had to travel alone from my home to Madhur
temple returning after my 3 day vacation to Vasantha Vedapata shala. I was
scared since this is first time I was traveling alone. I tried to get some
accompany to ensure low risk. I found one of my friends, he stays little away
from my home and we discussed and decided to meet in nearby city called
Mulleria and then travel together. We both never traveled alone till that time.
On the Day of traveling, I
woke up early and catch the correct bus and reached the Mulleria city on exact
time we decided. We both are happy we meet each other. At that time there was
no mobile phone and we neither had land-line phones at our home. We met in
Mulleria city and discussed about further travel plan. There were three
different locations in which the bus will be stopped traveling in three
different directions. We need to travel from one stopping location to another
in order to catch next bus.
We moved to the next bus
stopping location in order to catch the bus traveling towards Kasaragod. There
were two buses in the bus stop towards Kasaragod. We found two major differences
and are bus route and starting time. These are really half information and we
are not aware at what time it reaches Kasaragod. We started discussing in which
bus we need to travel. One bus starts at 8AM and travels in Paika route and
another bus start at 8:20AM and travels via Bovikana route.
We applied all our knowledge
and thoughts and we decided to travel via Paika since bus starts 20 minutes
early. After reaching Kasaragod we saw the bus started 20 minutes later from Mulleria
was already reached Kasaragod and retuning to Mulleria. We got shocked by
seeing this. Then I found the finding real trade off needs more experience and
more information.
This taught me that Finding “REAL
TRADE OFF” is the good start for the task. And lead to the best possible
result.We can not neglect Tradeoff's since it plays important role in real life.
