The better you know your identity, the better you understand what to do and what not to do. It’s essential to excel in what you must do, but avoiding what you shouldn’t do is half the battle for success. If you can’t accomplish what you need to do, start by training yourself not to engage in what you shouldn’t. If you can’t make the distinction or find yourself confused, that indicates you don’t truly understand your identity. Solving all problems begins with understanding one’s identity, whether it’s personal or business-related. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There’s a saying that after a flood, no water is left to drink. Those who see this as a metaphor grasp that it signifies that “usefulness” outweighs “quantity.” In contrast, literal interpreters might invest in stocks for “mineral water” due to an anticipated rise in demand for bottled water post-flood. This illustrates how interpretation and action can diverge significantly. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Diamonds are useless but expensive. At best, the usefulness of diamonds is just a hardness. There are many beautiful colored gems other than diamonds in the world. Paradoxically, diamonds are worth more because they are useless. A way for the rich to show off their wealth is to show that even if it is futile, they can pay for what others cannot. It is not the only value that is useful in the world. Value purely comes from a human. Focus on how human needs arise. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
