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”
Only a few founders genuinely grasp the essence of their businesses from the start. After launching, they often start to grasp the core of their ventures as their customer bases expand. If startups had a clearer insight into their businesses from the outset, they could significantly lower their chances of failure. The sooner you identify your business’s essence, the greater your chances for success will be. Furthermore, if you can quickly pivot your business direction—even if you realize it later—the likelihood of failure diminishes. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
