A stochastic equation named as Micro-Stochastic equation is proposed to describe the motion of a microscopic object assuming that the object is interacting with a background field through a random force and a associated friction force, undergoing a Markoff process. It is shown that in one limit, this dynamical equation leads to the Schroedinger equation in quantum mechanics when the friction coefficient ˇ÷Inf.; in other limit, it reduces to classical mechanics when ˇ÷0. New physics might be expected when is significant and is not too large. In this stochastic approach, the physical quantities of a microscopic object can take any possible values like a classical object; no quantization is required. The nature of eigen values and quantization of physical quantities in quantum mechanics are discussed.
