There is no way to make time. Eventually, humans face the problem of giving up something without exception. Slack is the price of giving up. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

“Bian Que” is a doctor of ancient China. He met “Duke Huan”, the king of the country “Cai”, and asked, “You have a serious disease, but it is better if I only treat your skin”. Then “Duke Huan” thought that “Bian Que” was trying to cheat the skin disease to make money with the serious disease, and refused his treatment. Every 10 days, Bian Que went to give advice, but Duke Huan, who refused to treat the disease, eventually died. However, King Wen of Wei came to Bian Que and asked. “I've heard that your three brothers are all doctors, but which one is the best?” “The big brother is the best because he cures it with medicine before the disease is revealed, and the second brother is excellent because he uses acupuncture when the disease is small, and then I'm the third of them because I do surgical operations on the serious disease after it is revealed,” he replied. The king asked again. “Then who is the richest?” Bian Que also answered. “My big brother heals the disease without any knowledge, no one knows about it, so he can't make any money, and my second brother is normal because he only takes a small amount of money, and then I have a lot of money to treat serious diseases.” When confronted with the same person, some people increase their sickness, while others gain wisdom.

"Apples are the fruit" is a true proposition. At this time, "apples" are a Sufficient Condition to be fruit, and vice versa, because the "fruit to be an apple is more necessary for other conditions such as "red, round", the fruit is a Necessary Condition to become an apple. If the proposition of "If you respect someone, you'll get married" is "true," it's a "Sufficient Condition" to find someone you admire for marriage, but it's just only a "Necessary Condition" to find someone to marry for respect. Even with respect, you can not get married. You can't get married even if the Reverse Proposition is "true." Because marriage is a matter of "choice" before conditions or needs. If you want a respectable man, you can find a great man. To live comfortably, you can find a rich man. So, is there no Necessary-Sufficient Proposition for a marriage (conditions where both the proposition

"Discount" is the sacrifice of the value-added you have created. Failure to produce Value Added will result in no profit, and there is a greater chance that the net worth will decrease as much as the profit that has been reduced. The problem is the customer. "Discounting from the start" and "selling at a discount" are strictly different for customers. Neither can do it right if the sellers don't know the "cost". Surprisingly, many businessmen do business without knowing the value they add and the cost. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"

Those who value ‘justice' and ‘morality' tend to regard even a little ‘exaggerated’ expression as ‘false’ or ‘immoral.’ They also reject ‘rhetorical exaggeration' to emphasize expression. But ‘exaggeration' is only important for its ‘intention and purpose’ and is by no means ‘false’ in conveying meaning. ‘Rhetorical exaggeration’ is not a fabrication, but an emphasis. Rather, people want to prove their own integrity, and then push the ‘rhetorical exaggeration' to the one side as it is false and use that 'rhetorical exaggeration’ as a way to intimidate someone who used it is immoral. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts"
