Sustainable Development Definition:

Definition:
Sustainable development, as defined by the Brundtland Commission (1987) is "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs".
By definition, then, sustainable development is development that takes the impact on the environment into account and tries to minimize environmental damage.
I'm of the opinion that sustainable development is a good thing in itself, but whatever your personal opinion, sustainable development is something that all businesses, large and small, should be actively involved in. "Green causes" are increasingly popular with the public, making sustainable development both good for PR and good for sales. It's no accident that so many large corporations have entire ad campaigns devoted to presenting themselves as environmentally friendly.
Small businesses, too, can get involved in sustainable development by adopting environmentally sound business principles and translating them into action. See Sustainable Development For Small Businesses for more information on how to do this.

It's useless to fear failure. failures tou achay hotay hain!

I couldn't learn accounting, i wasn't making any growth, i noticed. And pondered, why? Another thing i noticed was that whenever i attempted to solve a long, brain drying accounting case/question, i was too much overwhelmed by the fear of failure. Then i reflected: "Do i easily learn any other subject i am good at without initially failing at it?" Answer was in negative. There's a hindsight in it for the people of understanding, well described by today's Management Tip of the Day. It says:

"We spend a lot of time and energy at work trying not to fail. However, most people describe their failures as an important part of learning and growing. Adapt a growth mindset and accept that failure is part of the process of skill development. People with a growth mindset feel smart when they're learning, not just when they're succeeding. Don't limit yourself to doing things that you know you can do — you won't grow that way. Instead, try things that are above your ability, set high goals that you aren't sure you can reach. You might surprise yourself and succeed — and if you don't, you'll learn something new."

Learning is our "categorical imperative". (But don't make a habit of having too many categorical imperatives, though.)

Business Success

These include:

Picking the right applications. Business rules are a powerful tool for building smarter decisions into your applications but are better suited for some applications than others.

Following a process. Like any development technology, business rules work best when you have a structure and follow a suitable methodology.

Writing the right rules, the right way, and reusing them. Ensure your business rules are concise and atomic and use the right metaphor to manage them. Take advantage of your ability to manage them for reuse and to systematically verify, validate and simulate rules to get the result you want.

Operationalizing predictive analytics. Business rules are an ideal platform for putting predictive analytics to work to improve the effectiveness and precision of decisions.
