There are ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ things in the world, but many situations exist where actions can be seen as either right or wrong depending on the circumstances and outcomes. Often, when choosing a job, talent and aptitude play a significant role.

If you encounter misfortune now yet believe that good fortune will arrive in a few days, you will not be disheartened during difficult times. Conversely, if you are fortunate now but are aware that misfortune will strike soon, you will not become arrogant. Thus, humility involves preparing for an uncertain future. Being humble doesn’t mean you avoid misfortunes altogether; nevertheless, your possibilities of navigating them successfully statistically improve. Knowing the future is not necessarily an advantage in our lives. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Success is not determined by how much or how little you try. Anyone can be successful, but not everyone can achieve success. Rather, success is like a test paper that proves what a successful person is. Success is the opportunity to see what a person is really like. It’s humbling to know that there are other factors to success besides hard work, but if you believe that effort is everything, your success will soon become a sharp knife that wounds others. No matter how hard you try, you can’t beat fortune. This is the lesson of history. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
