Murphy's Law – Get out of the fluke zone

Murphy's Law, also known as Mo Fei's Law, is derived from the story of an American captain named Captain Murphy. Once Murphy casually said a joke, and as a result, in the process of circulation, it became the most unlikely form. Murphy's Law states that if something bad can happen, no matter how small the probability, it can also bring about a large loss.

In business management, we can often see the shadow of Murphy's Law. For example, we often encounter that at a critical moment when an order is about to expire, an important piece of equipment suddenly fails, affecting the progress of the work. This is all because we have a fluke mentality, ignore some of the main factors, and let down our vigilance. Overcoming these emergencies, ensuring the normal operation of enterprises, and avoiding greater losses are issues that managers at all levels should seriously consider. Murphy's Law brings us the following lessons:

(1) Before doing things, we must make a careful plan, set a variety of possible events and the development trend of things, do not ignore the small probability of events.

(2) Establish an early warning mechanism for some things that may cause major accidents, and establish emergency measures and countermeasures.

(3) Timely adjustment of emergency measures and countermeasures according to the development of the situation.

Enterprises should establish a planning system, do a good job of pre-management, and avoid unnecessary losses or loss of good opportunities for development due to lack of detailed planning or early warning response. Businesses and leaders need to correctly observe and respond to their mistakes, avoid flukes, learn lessons in time, and seize every opportunity for possible development.
