Just my thoughts #0435

There exist two categories of leaders: those who prioritize individuals and those who prioritize circumstances. Which category do you fall into? Leaders who prioritize circumstances may easily overlook the needs of individuals, driven by an underlying fear of adverse outcomes impacting them. Ultimately, those who favor circumstances above individuals exhibit a tendency to prioritize self-protection over the welfare of those they lead. In contrast, leaders who prioritize individuals, even amidst challenging situations, demonstrate the qualities of exemplary leadership. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0009

As a classical composer, Beethoven was the first to assign the work number 'Op.' to his works. Music scholars numbered the works of other famous classical composers after they had passed away. Beethoven believed that his work would be passed on to future generations, and he made it his responsibility to do so. Therefore, uncharacterized works were not given an 'Op.', leaving him with fewer works than other composers. This attitude influenced other composers and made them responsible for their creations. Since then, of course, the number of works by composers has decreased. The responsibility of one person can affect a generation and beyond. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
