Just my thoughts #0503

The fantastic idea I had was that someone else in the world had the same idea. An easy place to check is the stock market. People in the world are either as smart as I am or smarter than I am. There are no good ideas, only different thoughts. It is essential to try to think differently from others, even if the utility value of different thoughts is not high. The utility value of thought increases only when the ability to grasp the essence and the experiences gained from life come into play. Think differently from others within your own abilities. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0246

Growth and development stem not from accumulating achievements but from various forms of “exchange.” This means that they arise from the value I contribute in relation to the value of something else. This idea applies universally across all communities where people gather, whether in families, companies, or churches, and this exchange can be understood as “sacrifice.” Often, we sacrifice some internal members for the benefit of the group or employees for the satisfaction of external customers. The nature and reasons behind the sacrifice determine the organization’s morality, while the intentions and outcomes of the sacrifice demonstrate its ethical standing. Thus, the phrase “good influence” poses social risks; this is because a sacrificial mechanism exists in our world, allowing for value exchanges that may not necessarily be positive. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

When we walk, our bodies follow an implicit exercise plan for that movement. This means that all the sensations experienced while walking, starting from the feeling in the soles of our feet, are pre-programmed into this walking plan. Consequently, the brain’s awareness does not expend energy tracking our movements. It operates as a very efficient system. If a sensory signal arises that deviates from this original plan, the brain quickly adjusts by updating the walking plan almost instantaneously. For instance, if you suddenly trip over a stone, this mechanism kicks in. Imagine the fatigue we would experience if our consciousness had to focus on regulating our motor skills with every single step! All of nature evolves toward greater efficiency.     - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
