Non-cash temperament assets. Words I made up. Whether you are running a business or making a living, there are situations where money cannot solve everything. Not money or knowledge, but a person’s personality, disposition, intentions, emotions, etc., often shape circumstances and results. No matter how good an idea is, if it is not put into action, it is useless. It takes will and courage to act. Such will, courage, and passion are vital temperaments for tackling areas that money cannot address, and they seem to represent a kind of asset that yields results in accounting. Sometimes, audacity is required to achieve something, along with courage that knowledge alone cannot provide. Our lives cannot be successful solely with money and expertise. Investors should be mindful of the temperament of others. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
In addition to the humanities, the natural sciences are very helpful in business and management. While the humanities provide human-centered insights, the natural sciences offer as neutral a view of the world as possible. Without the perspective of the world, we can't know the world. Biology gives us an understanding of how organizations and ecosystems work. Physics provides us with a comprehension of the nature of space, the nature of time, and the dynamics of relationships. Knowledge expands the world as we know it. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
