Just my thoughts #0776

Storytelling: Life revolves around storytelling. Both business and investment depend on it. Every story has a context that should be clear through common sense and logic. Stock prices mirror the story behind trading volume. If you learn to understand these stories, it gives you a benefit in stock trading. The restaurant industry is about storytelling related to service, while sales on Internet shopping sites tell a story about product distribution. Good storytelling can grab people’s attention, entice them, and evoke their emotions. Novels and dramas offer many valuable lessons on how to build wealth, as storytelling is a powerful way to connect with the world. Humans learn and understand through storytelling. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0140

In September 1999, NASA’s unmanned Mars climate probe “MCO” exploded in Mars’ orbit. Manufacturer Lockheed Martin set up the data unit as a “yard,” but NASA mistook it as a “meter.” The MCO entered the atmosphere of Mars 100 km below the original orbit and exploded in friction. Communication error had blown away $ 125 million. With this opportunity, NASA decided that the units used in space development were “meters”. A slip of the tongue in business doesn’t end just a mistake accidentally. It must undoubtedly damage the “cash flow”. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
