Just my thoughts #0304

While your efforts may have been sincere, claiming success due to those efforts is misleading. The Law of Equivalent Exchange suggests that behind my achievements lie the sacrifices of others, known or unknown to me. We should approach discussions of success with humility and avoid glorification. Neglecting the Law of Equivalent Exchange often leads to the onset of corruption. When considering the sacrifices made by others, we ought to refrain from celebrating our successes based solely on our dedication and hard work. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Human abilities have limits. When current skills fall short, people often rely on potential future abilities; yet, these capabilities won’t emerge without bounds. Drawing on future potential to resolve present issues can lead to complications—this occurs due to the Law of Equivalent Exchange, which reveals that previously used potential can create new challenges in the present. Delaying payment for these abilities merely postpones the inevitable, leaving the core issues unresolved. This payment is termed “hardship.” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

McDonald’s main menu featured barbecue, and the hamburger was one of 27 items. McDonald’s provided a system for customers to order directly, pick up a hamburger after a while, and serve the food on a plate rather than in a wrapper. When they faced stagnant business, they looked back at the cause and found that 80% of sales came from hamburgers, French fries, and beverages. It took a long time to reduce the menu and switch from plates to wrappers. The past holds back the present and the future. Poor success also involves the burdens of the past. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
