Understanding what one belongs to is knowledge derived from personal experience. In fact, the experiences of others can provide a more accurate understanding of your place in the world. A third-party perspective is crucial for problem-solving. The viewpoint and position of an outsider, rather than my own, enable me to comprehend my situation most objectively. A solution lacking objectivity is likely to lead to the repetition of problems and may render them unsolvable forever. When I ascend the mountain and gaze down at the town I live in, I notice things I’ve never seen before. Significant progress occurs when a third-party perspective is applied. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Most trees do not grow alone; they grow alongside other trees. If a tree does not thrive, it cannot develop further because it is overshadowed by its neighboring trees , making it difficult to bear fruit. If it does not bear fruit, it cannot prosper and may eventually die or decline. To bear fruit signifies survival. A tree or a person can gauge health and future development based on its fruit. The fruit of a person is represented by their work and achievements. The track record reflects aspects of luck, effort, ability, humanity, capital, and time. Each element contributes differently to performance, but the variation does not shame the individual. Success or failure is secondary; the true shame lies in having no achievements. Trees and people are evaluated by their fruit. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
