No matter how strong someone appears, they have vulnerabilities. In reality, such a person often forgets that their strengths come from their weaknesses. Even if you concentrate too much on your strong points, your weaknesses can be easily uncovered. Someone who gets disappointed or angry when things don’t go their way reveals their vulnerabilities too easily. If I slightly disagree or irritate the person, they can be easily manipulated. A truly strong person does not openly display their strength or weakness. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In some cases, the outcome completes the intention to act. Although it wasn’t the original intention, it is a situation where the result of the action appears positively, and even the intention is glorified. Of course, the opposite can also occur. If the result of an action taken with good intentions is negative, those good intentions become a target for blame. It would be ideal if the intention and the result aligned, but that isn’t always the case. There are numerous instances where it is challenging to interpret this world full of deception and changes of heart with naivety alone. Yet, reality is shaped by the accumulation of results. If you achieve good results despite having bad intentions, it is considered luck. Skills cannot overcome luck. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The poorer persons are, the more likely they are to consider the system they are in, not their abilities or character. The poor are more likely to choose to live in ways that make them poorer. It's not because they're stupid, it's because the system they're in leads them to make those choices. Rutker Bregman, a Dutch historian and author, says that everyone is forced to make such decisions when they are placed in this environment. The way out of this system is to change your worldview. Poverty is a state of being, not an outcome. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
