Just my thoughts #0301

Receiving an investment signifies that you are receiving a prepayment for future costs and expenses. To generate revenue, you must cover these costs upfront. If you lack the funds necessary to manage current expenses while aiming to raise revenue, you might need to borrow money or attract investments. However, as a recipient of these funds, you cannot use them freely; this money does not belong to you. Legally, your options for utilizing this money are limited: you can either receive it as a salary from your expense account, as a dividend from profits after deductions as a shareholder, or pursue official management incentives. This underscores that the invested funds are not your own. When funds are invested, it implies that profits will be derived from someone else’s money, which you will share with the investor. Although investment alleviates the immediate pressure of expenses, it simultaneously heightens your obligation to generate profits promptly. Being fully funded does not equat...

When we walk, our bodies follow an implicit exercise plan for that movement. This means that all the sensations experienced while walking, starting from the feeling in the soles of our feet, are pre-programmed into this walking plan. Consequently, the brain’s awareness does not expend energy tracking our movements. It operates as a very efficient system. If a sensory signal arises that deviates from this original plan, the brain quickly adjusts by updating the walking plan almost instantaneously. For instance, if you suddenly trip over a stone, this mechanism kicks in. Imagine the fatigue we would experience if our consciousness had to focus on regulating our motor skills with every single step! All of nature evolves toward greater efficiency.     - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Speaking negatively to others stems from my discomfort. Positive language fosters respect and happiness in relationships. This isn’t merely due to the “power of positivity”; it’s how our brains have evolved to interpret it. When asked, “Why don’t you study?” the negative framing prompts the brain to release cortisol, which ramps up stress. Consequently, the brain associates “studying” with unpleasantness. Conversely, if you say, “I appreciate your studying even while you play,” the message shifts. Parents shape children; husbands influence wives, and wives impact husbands. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

I've been writing every single day for three years. I also studied to find a way to write well. Then I saw the only way for my writing to improve. It was not a technique. It wasn't even an empathic piece. It was my writing fixed over and over again. The human brains improve with repetition. Anything secret key couldn't have been more helpful. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
