Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

The representatives do not produce the results; instead, they establish the system that generates those results. Failing to grasp this distinction can lead to significant consequences. The system defines a goal, organizes a structure that aligns with that goal, designates a person responsible for each point of connection within the structure, assigns appropriate roles, and delegates authority and responsibility. Ultimately, the representatives are responsible for the system. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The significant characteristic of a mistake when it has occurred once is that it tends to be repeated over and over again. Therefore, genuine mistakes are only the first ones. After that, each subsequent mistake proves a lack of wisdom. People rarely change, so instead of trying to change them, we should wisely change the system to which they belong. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Traffic direction is influenced by history and traditions. What would occur if a country suddenly changed its travel direction? The costs of replacing road signs would be just the start; the nation would also need to revise traffic laws and control systems, leading to a higher frequency of accidents. Such a major change hasn’t occurred in any country since its inception. Globally, 165 countries have adopted right-hand drive (RHD), while 75 have implemented left-hand drive (LHD). Currently, 66% of the world’s population drives on the right, and 72% of all roads are right-sided. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

When we walk, our bodies follow an implicit exercise plan for that movement. This means that all the sensations experienced while walking, starting from the feeling in the soles of our feet, are pre-programmed into this walking plan. Consequently, the brain’s awareness does not expend energy tracking our movements. It operates as a very efficient system. If a sensory signal arises that deviates from this original plan, the brain quickly adjusts by updating the walking plan almost instantaneously. For instance, if you suddenly trip over a stone, this mechanism kicks in. Imagine the fatigue we would experience if our consciousness had to focus on regulating our motor skills with every single step! All of nature evolves toward greater efficiency.     - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

With social media, we assume that we see and hear what we want to see and hear. But the truth is, we see and listen to what the system shows and listens to us. Uncontrolled systems distort inefficiencies and the purpose for which they were created. So the algorithm is loaded into the system. We do not enjoy freedom. It is only considered "free" in the context of control. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts”

Not running out of time, but it's hesitation to make your priority what's most important with a stressful mind by yourself. However, even if you have made a decision your priority when you feel a lack of time, you're taking a burden beyond your capacity or yet to equip the proper system to carry it out. Neither is desirable. Not all of them are, but most of the time, you tend to be poor if you're busy for no reason. You may be busy for a while, but you should be alert to stay busy because it's easy to lose your health, to lose your money, and eventually to lose your people. - 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"
