Survival is true success. No matter how successful you are, you can’t grasp the fruit with your hands if you can’t survive, and survival itself results from choosing excellence—something no one can fully attain. Of course, luck also plays a role in survival. So, survival is never easy. During tough times, these words of wisdom can help: “This too shall pass.” But we also need to prepare for what to do once that “passing time” has truly gone by. When you succeed, remember, “This too shall pass.” Whether it’s good fortune or disaster, success or failure, you should see all of these as just “processes.” However, if you see them as “conclusions,” everything is wasted. These attitudes demonstrate why a peaceful mind is the most useful and humility is the most valuable asset. In front of the “process,” everything is a high-variability asset whose value shifts. Even suffering follows the same principle. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
A big supermarket can do business in the suburbs because of wheels. If someone asked me what is one of the greatest inventions in human history that civilization has ever developed, I would say "wheels." The automobile is also a wheel. Shopping carts are also wheels. Without wheels, how many people would go far and carry heavy loads? Mass distribution is possible because of wheels. To do bulk sales, you have to have a lot of inventory. That means you need a lot of storage space. It also means you need cheap real estate. The trivial circle, the wheel, is the key to solving all these constraints in one shot. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
