Bureaucracy is commonly described as the administration of an organization usually in large entities like government, multi-national corporations and non-government corporations.

It is a system that is successfully implemented like a clockwork within the organization so much so that it has literally fused and become one with the culture, and behavior of how the administrative, processing, and disciplinary actions works. It is mainly created with the intention to generate and increase efficiency and productivity within the organization possible with the least amount of resources thereby increasing net profits which attributes to more bonuses for the shareholders, investors, and employees.

The system is built on a step-by-step hierarchical level, and no one is to challenge that every system created to keep the organization and the business running like a well oiled machine as though it is like a robot working twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week non-stop.

Yet such a system is also a victim of its own success. For this is also very often in majority of the organizations a largely one-way-communication system from the top-down approach with no ways of the top management nor the owners listening to the cries and concerns of the ground workers that in fact the executioners, who carry out the daily operations that results in consistent profits for the business and the organization.

Its’ failure comes from not the top management, but rather from the middle management in particular the supervisors, managers and directors who may want to secure their own employment appraisals and be kept in the good books of the top leaders thereby keeping only employees under their command those who will boot-lick, curry favors beneficial to the immediate superiors and at times compromising on the values and objectives of the company just so to simply keep their own jobs for simply job security.

Largely due to this ignorance, and failure to implement bottom-up strategies to interact with the ground workers are the primary culprit for the collapse and failure of any known organizations and it even dates back to civilizations as far back as the dinosaur age where humans were not part of the equation just yet.

Why you may wonder as to me mentioning about civilizations is simply because they failed to listen, observe and react in time to response to looming dangers that will put themselves at risk of extinction. Meaning to say, failure to observe, protect, and conserve the very source of food (money for organizations) will result in gradual extinction (failure and collapse for businesses) in the long term should they have reacted and spot potential dangers of food shortage In organizations’ context, it refers to resentments from the employees, and a full employee work strike will cripple the business and even the national economy gross domestic product of any country.

Just look at the middle east countries numerous strikes, civil wars, and even taking into account of Thailand internal politics war with the red and yellow shirts supporting different leaders with their interest at heart and you will soon start to realize the importance and link of success. It is simply by just listening, protect, conserve grow, and fix any disagreements, grievances peacefully for a mutually beneficial future for long term survival and sustainability.

If you really want to succeed in your business/personal life whatsoever, read up on how Bill Gates and Warren Buffet, Li-Ka-Shing run their businesses, the model and how they treat their employees with utmost respect and humility. However, should you have no time to read nor find out about their thick volumes of information and practices, why not hire somebody who knows and understand it.

You can seek the professionals, but just pray hard and do your homework that they have your interest at heart and is not out to earn one-time lump sum of consultancy fees from you or your business organization. If you can’t find that kind of professional, perhaps you can consider giving me a chance to prove my worth and how I can help you and your business grow.

To win or to lose. To create success or crawl into despair and failure depends on the how individuals deal with a mutually beneficial system of two way bureaucracy.

Balance is about equilibrium with equal distribution of weight distributor to achieve balance.

Everything must be balanced, and there must not be bias on any side but in reality, it isn’t possible to strike a balance unless we control our own source of income, wealth and time by working for ourselves and not for our boss.

At work, government across and all over the globe always talk about having a balance working life, which is nonsense, if they want to get paid via tax thus they have money, they have to think of ways to allow business to have more employees thus more tax will be received from everybody making them richer but not wealthier since government are not experts at wealth and financial management.

The true experts of wealth and financial management are the billionaires and multi-millionaires. Millionaires are not included in my theory because millionaires can be done alone with hard work while multi-millionaires cannot.

News reports of financial crisis, great depression, stock crisis, commodity shortage thus causing sky rocketed cost of food and basic ingredients such as sugar, salt, and oil at times are the solid proof that government leaders are just ordinary people like you and me in the streets. They know nothing about real wealth management. They can make mistakes and push the blame to somebody else by military or keep it within the walls of each respective country as top secrets etc, and the best part, they don’t get fired because they need to retain ‘talents’ who are just sadly ill-trained professionals who knows only theory but not practical experience whatsoever.

Such people in the government do not and will not know how to balance the equilibrium and will continue to make mistakes than push it to others, got let somebody be the scapegoat taking the blame while opening a back-door to the person who help them take the rap.

The Lehman Brothers is a typical example of ill trained professionals who cause the world economy to share the rap and consequences of their actions, sparking a crisis with more problems in western countries than Asian countries.

With US government using tax-payers money to bail out the companies that didn’t do a proper job to save employments, when this happens, it is debt sharing, and passing the debt to the majority of the people. Take the total sum of money USA used and divide among the US population, and you know on average how much a US citizen helps the government to pay off the debts, which is why the US presidential election is all about, getting the consent of every citizen for approval by votes.

In Asian countries, it is run with a slightly different practice, because of the lack of politicians, and leaders, whatever mistakes they made, it will be compromised because there are no successors to take over thus they can continue making mistakes and nobody can do anything because they lack the higher appointment to veto the politician out immediately. Business and politics will never be able to work together due to a conflict of interest and why Warren Buffett initially decline President Obama request to lead the US in terms of investment options.

At work, health and family, it is all about striking a balance but it is not possible to do it because not possible to do so as business is all about profits and family work balance must be compromised in order to meet quota set by the company and the management else face the risk of being fired.

The only possible way to attain work life and family plus health balance is to work for ourselves, and find alternative income source to have flexible work time, have a business system to have it running on automatic basis so to allow equal balance.

The alternative is via internet marketing, and multi-level marketing (MLM) which requires no boss, no fixed timing, efforts and pay are justified by the amount of commitment they put in which is why news articles in Singapore have mention successes in blogging stay home young mothers who are IT savvy. MLM however has created tremendous success that can’t be overlooked but it is treated with negativity thus people are not receptive to it.

Education is all about helping ourselves to earn more money, but why and how did people think that it’s only right to help boss earn money and not help themselves? Are you slapping yourself in the face? Wake up to the reality and face it. If you at any one time want to deny facts, you will be a loser and loser will only suffer in misery and nothing else.

Do you want to seek balance in live which will encourage good health or do you want to continue to work your guts out risking your health helping your boss get rich, and not helping yourself?
