Just My Thoughts Ebooks

What if we jotted down the fleeting sparks of inspiration that come our way each day? That question inspired me to start recording a note every day. Over time, I collected 834 entries and shared them on social media. I turned the notes into one-minute whiteboard animations, organized them by theme, and refined them into a collection of short questions and thought-provoking content. The result is a series of five books, now available in EPUB format. You can order them through the Amazon Kindle Store link in my profile. * JUST MY THOUGHTS Series: JUST MY THOUGHTS: 100 Observations on Value, Wealth, Business, and Life JUST MY THOUGHTS: 100 Observations on People, Feelings, and Everyday Life JUST MY THOUGHTS: 100 Observations on Work, Business, and Making Things Useful JUST MY THOUGHTS: 100 Observations on Money, Choices, and Uncertainty JUST MY THOUGHTS: 100 Observations on Observation, Ideas, and a Changing World * Release Date: Oct. 28th, 2026 * Amazon Kindle EBook Store https://www.ama...

Just my thoughts #0439

In the 18th century, when the sun went down, people slept except for the rich man who could afford a candle. Humans lived in harmony with the natural rhythm. When machines created an industrial society and replaced human labor, people did not reduce their work but instead operated according to the machine’s working cycle. Charlie Chaplin criticized this phenomenon in his movie “Modern Times,” highlighting how mechanization forces humans to work with unprecedented intensity. Now, humans are concerned that artificial intelligence and robotic automation will diminish labor and lead to unemployment. What a contradiction! Rest is not an automatic benefit; it is a holy declaration of war that I must strive to achieve, not to disturb my rest on purpose. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

What does it mean to be good at work? First, you need to understand your priorities well. Priorities are shaped by self-worth and circumstances. The priority is to have empathy, even when there isn’t a clear correct answer. In this world, there’s a correct path that most people acknowledge. It reflects the common values that humanity has agreed upon over time. Second, you need to identify the key point. The point is that even if you eliminate other factors, you should never remove them. Third, everything must align with your purpose. There’s a reason behind everything you do. And finally, you must maintain trust. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Most individuals are unaware of the balance between “physical work” and “emotional work” in their roles. “Beginners” are those who are compensated solely for physical work, while “mediums” earn for both physical and emotional contributions. “Masters,” on the other hand, receive higher pay for emotional work compared to physical tasks. Without the ability to assign a price to the value of your emotions, you will inevitably remain at a low added value. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
