Micro-movement refers to small shifts. Kim Yong-woon, who authored the book “History’s Counterattack,” states that before a state changes, an ambiguous phase occurs during the process. This is called ‘micro-movement,’ and he argues that a rigid organization that suppresses this micro-movement will ultimately lead to frustration or catastrophe.

It is believed that when human activity reaches a critical point, key insights can be derived from seemingly trivial details. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Every day, I examine the world map. When I zoom in, the map reveals a world I have yet to discover. There are countless unknown places on this planet that I have not experienced. By observing the geography, countries, and attractions, I can learn about history and broaden my perspective on the world. Looking at the map prompts me to reconsider space, time, and culture. For instance, in the Bering Strait, Big Diomede Island belongs to Russia, while Little Diomede Island is part of the United States, and the distance between them is only 3.7 kilometers. The International Date Line passes between these two islands. Even if we were to cross the distance by ship, it would take about 9 minutes at a speed of 15 knots. However, after those 9 minutes, we would find ourselves a full 21 hours behind. This situation illustrates that time is more of a human agreement than a mere physical measurement. Ultimately, learning and personal development are fueled by continuous questioning and doubt. ...
