Connectivity and Opportunity: Opportunities come when you uncover connections that others haven’t seen. Humans create events, which then feed back into the world and cause change. By interpreting and discovering interconnected elements more quickly or differently than others, we open doors to progress. For example, people realized that a multiplex cinema’s competitor was a theme park, not just another cinema—showing how movie theaters and outdoor theme parks were connected. Another case is Lego: while sales were declining, they initially blamed computer games. However, they later discovered the real issue was a shift in children’s play culture. These examples illustrate how recognizing invisible connections boosts your chances of staying competitive. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Most individuals are unaware of the balance between “physical work” and “emotional work” in their roles. “Beginners” are those who are compensated solely for physical work, while “mediums” earn for both physical and emotional contributions. “Masters,” on the other hand, receive higher pay for emotional work compared to physical tasks. Without the ability to assign a price to the value of your emotions, you will inevitably remain at a low added value. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
