Just my thoughts #0754

Traditional education taught that human economic development progressed from hunting to stock farming and then to agriculture. However, the only real difference is that stock farming is an economic method of obtaining food by domesticating livestock, while agriculture involves domesticating plants. Therefore, this three-stage development theory is no longer accepted. Instead, the development of human civilization can be seen in the evolution of transportation. To understand the nature of how the world changes, we should observe the development of transportation. The increasing speed of movement is the main evidence that society is changing rapidly. - 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"
