Profits and Rewards: While profit and reward may seem similar at first glance, they are distinct concepts. Profit is more practical than reward and has a genetic basis. Reward, in contrast, offers comprehensive benefits and is aligned with life. For example, if a company promises to give stock options to its employees, that is a reward; however, if the stock option is officially recorded by a resolution of the shareholders’ general meeting, that is a profit. Profit reflects the realization of rewards. Our genes seek profit more than rewards. Nevertheless, rewards also help sustain life. An example illustrating the difference between profit and reward is seen in loss. Gambling and drugs may offer us emotional rewards, but they also show how we can experience diminishing returns by wasting our resources. Profits and rewards are clearly different. Many people confuse the two, which can harm relationships. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Wagons are believed to have been first created in western Asia around 3500 BC. Initially, because the wheels were disc-shaped, they were pulled by cattle due to their heaviness. However, after the invention of spoke wheels, horses could pull the wagons because they were lighter. Naturally, there was a big difference between the speed of a wagon pulled by cattle and one pulled by a horse. This led to a decrease in travel time. A minor adjustment to the spoke design sparked a significant change in human civilization. Nearly all innovations start small, but even the tiniest change can have enormous consequences. Many unseen factors contribute to this innovation in our lives. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
