Management is the activity of transforming uncertainty into certainty to create predictability. For example, investing in stocks when you don’t know when or how much you’ll make is a gamble, but finding a way to achieve an average return of 15% per month is management. Bank loans have a fixed schedule for when and how much principal and interest must be repaid. It is not the banking business where you can repay or request repayment at any time when you have funds. Nevertheless, we gamble or engage in a ritual for rain, mistakenly believing that it is management. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In mathematics , a state without contradictions is defined as ‘true,’ and in morality , it is called ‘good.’ However, in management and politics , contradiction is used by organizations and the public to control or to win or lose the hearts of people. In other words, contradiction is the criterion that defines the state in the conceptual world , but it is a tool that determines the state in the real world . Therefore, contradiction is a problem to be solved when defined as an idea, but when acted upon, it is the center of balance that sets the order between contradiction and truth and rebalances the relationship where more importance should be placed. Contradiction is a divine device that prevents human beings from being arrogant. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Facts and fake news coexist on social media. So do claims and counterclaims. In theory, the new communication tools of social media give them equal opportunities to express themselves. It's a communication environment, unlike anything humanity has ever known. A great way to make your voice heard in this environment is to state your beliefs and connect with the people who support those beliefs through social media. Social media will connect you with sympathetic people, no matter how illogical or unpersuasive your beliefs. Traditional media can't structurally accommodate this mechanism, but it's a reality. - 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"
