The basis for judging whether a person’s life can truly change lies in observing how someone continues to engage in meaningful activities every day, regularly and consistently. What matters is that the person does not stop doing a lot of work at once, but instead continues steadily every day, even if the efforts are small. Lao-tzu said, “Nature doesn’t rush. But it has been accomplishing everything.” If you want to be healthy, you can engage in small but consistent exercise each day. If you want to build wealth, you can pursue small production and investment activities daily. If you want to be smart, you can read or study even a small amount each day. Life consists of both simple-interest life and compound-interest life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
As a classical composer, Beethoven was the first to assign the work number 'Op.' to his works. Music scholars numbered the works of other famous classical composers after they had passed away. Beethoven believed that his work would be passed on to future generations, and he made it his responsibility to do so. Therefore, uncharacterized works were not given an 'Op.', leaving him with fewer works than other composers. This attitude influenced other composers and made them responsible for their creations. Since then, of course, the number of works by composers has decreased. The responsibility of one person can affect a generation and beyond. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
