Future and Attitude : My current attitude toward the future shapes my outlook on it. How I perceive the future influences my actions and mindset now. By analyzing past experiences, I identify patterns that help me compare and validate my expectations and predictions for the future . In other words, the past serves as material for judging the future. Therefore, my judgments and current behavior stem from reflecting on the future I have already envisioned . If I don’t decide on my outlook and attitude toward the future, my present self remains undefined. This is known as ‘CONFLICT.’ Today, an unclear future coexists with past experiences that form specific patterns. Why is time important? Because to exist in the present, both past and future must be simultaneously present. If these two tenses are not reflected now, decision-making stalls , and conflict continues due to its effects. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Adequacy : Moderate and appropriate nature. In the early days of the Roman Empire , Emperor Tiberius hosted a grand feast and invited an inventor. The inventor presented a glass as a gift, and the emperor inquired about its features. When the inventor claimed that the glass was unbreakable , the emperor dropped it on the floor. Only one side was dented, and the emperor touched that spot, restoring it to its original condition. Astonished, the emperor asked the inventor, “Have you ever taught anyone how to make this glass?” The inventor replied, “I did not tell anyone.” Then the emperor ordered his execution because if the recipe for the glass were known, the value of the emperor’s gold and silver treasures would plummet. No matter how excellent something is, it can be the worst depending on the situation and context. That’s why adequacy is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
