In <What Is Life?>, written by Lynn Margulis and Dorion Sagan, there is an expression, “Independence is a political term, not a scientific term.” Independence is the state in which a person can live alone without help or influence from others, using their own strength and ability. The condition of being physically separated from the community is called “isolation.” Independence and isolation are different. Isolation should not be mistaken for independence. To exclude influence and secure autonomy is independence, while deliberately cutting off relationships is isolation. Independence is based on achievement; isolation is based on hurt. To grow, you must be independent, not isolated. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Creativity stems from actions rather than from emotions or ideas. The willingness to take steps that others avoid is the foundation of innovation. Essentially, genuinely creative individuals act on their curiosities. While everyone has ideas, they are ineffective without action. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
