Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

Happiness and satisfaction are two distinct concepts. It is a fact that poverty deprives happiness. What is also a fact is that earning more than a certain amount of money does not increase happiness. Social science research has proven this. But satisfaction is a different matter entirely. Satisfaction is directly linked to achieving social goals. It is a myth that more money will make you happier. Happiness is about having the right money and friends. But satisfaction comes from achieving your goals. It is a simple fact that humans live a completely different life depending on whether their living standards are happiness or satisfaction. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Success always has two faces. One is achievement and the other is complacency. There's a term in business administration called the " Competence Trap". It refers to the belief that if people cling to and repeat past successes, they will continue to be successful in the future. Xerox, which invented the world's first personal computer; Chrysler, which missed the SUV market because of the success of the minivan; and Kodak, which invented the world's first digital camera but failed to aggressively market it for fear of losing its main business, film. Humility is not an etiquette, but a shared destiny essential to success. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

You probably think that your ability can determine your competitiveness. So you might think that ability should be important in professions. Then think about it. When you're working, if there's a person next to you who has the best ability, you might give up your job for that person. The essence of occupation is competition and ignorance. These two properties will tell you that there is still something to challenge and achieve in your life. But if you acknowledge reality accurately, you will wander your way. If you consider more, you will realize that the driving forces of challenge and achievement have belonged to the "ignorance of competition." - Joseph's "just my thoughts"

If our daily diligence is repeated and accumulated, there is a huge difference between doing and not doing. If 0.99% of my effort and 0.01% of luck, achievement by the effort will be prominent, but also we cannot ignore the result with the achievement taken from luck. There are so many reasons that we must be modest after achieving our goals. Even so small and trivial, continuously repeating our diligence day by day, our lives should be changed. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
