Long Term and Short Term

Posted by admin under Web Skill

The immense desire of human beings to become a millionaire has even intruded to the world of Web, where people and companies become much more keen in short term effect than preferring a stable long term benefit.

In SEO, people have been found to take help of a lot of malpractices, which might give them almost an instant hype, but had been even awarded penalties by crawlers in the long term.

If you closely look at the share market, where the prices become highly vulnerable, people prefer to invest in companies, which has shown tangible yield in last couple of days or months. People hardly apply their common sense in analyzing the results in a couple of financial years and also the governing factors, that can change the value in the long term. People hardly becomes inquisitive in the various business propositions of the company and apply the brain to forecast the result. The concept remains the same. People are more concerned about short term gains rather than long term gains.

If we want to draw an analogy in real life, a patient suffering from bronchial problems become highly cautious while taking an ice cream, while people dont even bother to pay any respect to the slogan, Quit smoking, as smoking in most of the cases cast a long term effect, rather than short term harm.

So, if there is a battle between the short term and long term, the short term always takes over as people become more and more concerned of short term results, rather than long term results, which depends upon a lot of IFs and BUTs.
