Austrian psychiatrist Julius Wagner-Jauregg had a remarkable talent for recognizing patterns. When a common tendency appears, it’s called a pattern. Finding common ground also involves identifying problems or finding solutions. Before the discovery of penicillin, Julius was searching for a way to treat neurosyphilis but accidentally discovered that the condition was cured when the patient developed a severe fever from another disease. Julius intentionally infected a patient with malaria to induce a fever, and when the fever rose, he used quinine to treat malaria and saved the syphilis patient. Without treatment, syphilis had a 30% survival rate, but with malaria-induced fever, the survival rate increased to 60%. The survival rate was doubled. For this work, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1927. Although high fever causes pain in humans, it also signals that the immune system is active. Recognize patterns to solve problems. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The term “pseudo-” means exquisitely similar, but the core differs. This small difference in the core has enormous consequences. When you see a pseudo-doctor, you lose your health or life. When you meet pseudo-religious leaders, you waste your life and ruin your future—this small difference in core changes in fate. So, when consulting, I emphasize the “essence of business” and “identity”. Entrepreneurs don't know the tragedy that occurred by ignoring the small core in peace due to similar reasons. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
