Humans have relied on horses for transportation for a long time. Horses are anatomically designed for running, are strong, and possess excellent endurance. However, the reason this horse was chosen as a means of transportation for humanity is that its back does not shake much when it runs, which is also a crucial factor. Observe a horse’s back as it runs. Regardless of how well a horse runs, for a person to ride it, there must be minimal shaking. If running well is the primary function, a smoother ride becomes a secondary consideration. However, the world often prioritizes only the primary function, overlooking the significance of these secondary functions and their roles in actualizing that primary function. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The Japan Airlines that no one thought would ever recover. It was the biggest corporate bankruptcy in Japan. When Kyocera Group Chairman Emeritus Kazuo Inamori took the helm to save Japan Airlines, his priority was to reform the mindset of the employees. Whenever he could, he gathered all employees for lectures on mental reform, and executives were required to attend a separate lecture on mental reform given by Kazuo Inamori every Thursday without exception. The employees' frustration was palpable, but the company returned to the stock market after two years and eight months. There is no magic in running a company. Attitude and mindset are everything. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
