One of the key principles of money is ‘opportunity cost.’ It means that when I buy something, I have to give up something else in return. We think we buy because we need something, but we often forget that we could buy something else instead. We rarely consider ‘opportunity cost’ when making a purchase. We do not compare other values against our needs. Buying something means giving up something else, but we often don’t realize it. When we spend money, we should also consider the ‘opportunity cost’; yet, in reality, we aren’t trained to do so. By making a purchase, we bypass the value comparison that may not offer any additional benefits. Maybe it’s because we lack knowledge, or perhaps the idea isn’t appealing. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
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.
