Just my thoughts #0638

Marathon runners rarely smile before, during, or after the race and usually have a very serious expression. If there were aliens, everyone who participated in the marathon might be considered a criminal because they don’t look happy. Humans think they only enjoy happy and joyful work and avoid hard, painful work, but in reality, human motivation is more complex. Even if something is hard and painful, it’s not as simple as just participating in marathons. Humans do not act solely based on joy and happiness. If humans can find meaning in life and experience progress even when it’s difficult, they are willing to do it. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

We realize something while writing: we do not compose because we know. As we write down our problems, we instinctively understand what we know, what we don’t know, and what the main point is, which allows us to clarify precisely what it entails. Don’t just think; think as you write. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

You probably think that your ability can determine your competitiveness. So you might think that ability should be important in professions. Then think about it. When you're working, if there's a person next to you who has the best ability, you might give up your job for that person. The essence of occupation is competition and ignorance. These two properties will tell you that there is still something to challenge and achieve in your life. But if you acknowledge reality accurately, you will wander your way. If you consider more, you will realize that the driving forces of challenge and achievement have belonged to the "ignorance of competition." - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
