When individuals who have successfully overcome adversity and achieved social recognition view the world through their ability to conquer personal struggles, challenges emerge. Seeing the experience of overcoming hardships through diligent effort as an opportunity to cultivate genuine self-confidence enhances positive self-esteem. However, evaluating everything in the world solely from that perspective can lead to significant difficulties for both yourself and others. My success may change me, but there are no guaranteed formulas to positively impact the world. Success holds value when it becomes an internal celebration within me. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Imagine you have a goose that lays golden eggs (how wonderful that would be!). According to philosophy, there are three primary approaches to utilizing this goose. The first person, driven by hunger, decides to cut open the goose, retrieve a golden egg, and sell it. The second individual manages hunger differently by selling the golden eggs as they are produced. Lastly, the third person opts to lease the goose to earn rental income. This scenario illustrates earned income, financial income, and investments. Ultimately, it comes down to how you choose to manage your time (profit in fixed terms) to fit your needs. Wealth is defined by circumstances and the passage of time. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
