Just my thoughts #0804

Implement: The act of turning thoughts, plans, or wills into reality. There is a significant difference between ‘knowing’ and ‘being able to do.’ Knowing a lot doesn’t mean you’re skilled at it, and just because you’re skilled doesn’t mean you know a lot. It’s limited to ‘knowing,’ and that reality doesn’t change unless you act. It’s crucial to practice “what I can do” first. Even if you have extensive knowledge of stock investing, it’s useless unless you actually invest. Even if you’re poor, you should invest a small amount of money; your knowledge is then put to the test. It’s foolish to study only until you have money and then invest in tangible assets after accumulating substantial wealth. It’s wiser to start with a small investment and gradually increase it as your knowledge is proven. Beginning with what you can do NOW is the ONLY way to truly demonstrate your knowledge. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Rice has been the staple crop of the East, while wheat has been the staple of the West. Rice requires more water to produce than wheat. Rice farmers had to contend with the availability of water, which favored collective farming. Wheat could be grown with less labor than rice. Rice farmers lived collectively, while wheat farmers lived individually. Collective agriculture led to the development of societies that were governed by village rules. On the other hand, individual agriculture led to cultures that valued personal freedom and respect for individuality over communal rules. Patterns of agriculture have indisputably influenced social structure and culture. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
