Entrepreneurship involves starting to invest in the stocks of my own company. However, unlike open-market stock investments, here you invest in your own business, not someone else’s. My company’s performance directly affects my shares. To excel at investing in your own company’s stock, focusing on one key area can significantly boost your chances of success. Conversely, to be good at investing in others’ stocks, it’s better to understand multiple business sectors rather than just one. Since investing in stocks focuses more on minimizing risk than maximizing returns, diversifying resources across several areas makes risk management more effortless. If you master risk aversion, you can reduce losses and increase your chances of surviving in a volatile market. If you are knowledgeable and well-informed, I recommend investing in others’ stocks rather than pursuing entrepreneurship. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Yeast consumes glucose and produces alcohol along with CO2. This action serves as a defense mechanism to protect against other microbiomes. In other words, the alcohol produced by yeast acts as a poison to eliminate other microbiomes. Thus, a solution with over 70% alcohol concentration can effectively eradicate the COVID-19 virus. We gladly consume the poison that yeast produces in liquor. Probably, isn’t there only a very thin line between happiness and unhappiness? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

When dealing with others in good faith and suffering from the reality that the rules and methods of life they believed in are no longer accepted, you should question the “Good Samaritan Complex.” The better a person is, the harder it is to realize that they are confined within a distorted framework. If you see people around you who don’t want to put themselves at a disadvantage for others as you do, or if you’re angry and uncomfortable with the fact that others don’t show their sympathy, you should look back to see if your goodness is a defense mechanism protecting you from being hurt. The problem with Good Samaritans’ lives is not their attitude toward life but rather how they are perceived by others too much. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
