If you are intelligent, your chances of becoming wealthy are relatively high, but being smart alone doesn’t necessarily make you rich. Wealth can only be achieved when other vital factors come into play, such as those who understand how to judge legal rights in transactions beyond just intelligence, and those who can establish governance or maintain relationships. Luck refers to a situation where all these different conditions are easily satisfied. This happens when I acquire it because all important and diverse conditions align at the same moment and place. Therefore, a deal or opportunity that genuinely works for me shouldn’t be complicated. The more complicated it is, the more likely I am to be scammed. The human brain is wired to seek simplicity. Our brains consistently choose efficiency. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
When we face the most innumerable values, we do not feel to be grateful. The most valuable things in the world are almost things we do not thank or easily ignore, like the air, light, etc. When the gratitude is routinized, the lack occurs instead. When the recent gratitude is forgotten, we blame and curse dissatisfaction. So if you want to protect the breaking relationship with someone, while you try your best but don't cause the gratitude of someone for you never become routine. If appreciation for you is routinized, the relationship you want to protect will be destroyed. Unconditionally good relationships can end for this reason. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
