Both arrogance and humility can contribute to our success. While humility is not the sole key to achievement, it enables a connection with someone who genuinely cares. That individual may represent everything I need in life. Ultimately, success can be seen as cultivating a deep bond with the person who truly loves you. If you can nurture multiple meaningful relationships throughout your journey, beyond that loving individual, you should regard yourself as blessed with humility. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
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”
