Iteration and Optimization: It would be great to do something well on the first try, but humans are not perfect. To do it well, you need to go through repeated failures and successes, and during that process, you have to identify the pattern that works best for you. This process is called optimization. Optimization requires iteration. Efficiency and profits are guaranteed by repeating a process until a particular singularity is achieved, thereby maintaining that level of excellence. The general rule for success in society is to iterate and keep optimizing. Being consistent is the fastest way to improve. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Can we sell pesticides to the Maasai? In Maasai culture, flies represent wealth. Ranching and livestock inherently attract flies. If someone arrives and removes the flies, there is no Maasai to welcome them. The focus of the business is not on selling products but on conveying “meanings.” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
