Just my thoughts #0767

Action and behavior are distinct. Action is an immediate response to a situation’s demands, while behavior is a voluntary response driven by will and intention. So, which one is more important? Both are essential. There is a time to act and a time to behave. The best approach is for your behavior to follow what you started with action. Immediate action is necessary to achieve results, and behavior is needed to put your will into action with a specific purpose or goal. A person who acts easily is practical, while a person who prefers behavior is strategic. But if you don’t act, nothing happens. The world we live in gains meaning after its occurrence and its consequences. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Media shapes a “perceived space,” which exists not in the physical realm but within our imagination. Businesses that once thrived on in-person gatherings will need to adapt their perception of space to survive in the future. Traditionally, aggregation has served as a primary profit model. However, even in a distributed setting, if a cognitive connection can be established, a cognitive space emerges. While aggregation and variance are tied to physical realities, these distinctions lose relevance in cognitive terms. For instance, cafés inside train stations hold economic value due to the relatively short travel distance compared to those outside. Yet, a café just outside the station, equipped with an LED display providing boarding information, effectively extends the perceived economic value of the train station space. Instagram exemplifies this concept; to reiterate, media creates a perceived space. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Vaccines have allowed people to travel worldwide. Migration and population density are benefits of vaccines. When vaccines failed to curb the epidemic, the “space” ultimately addressed the epidemic. This history is why maintaining “social distance” is essential. Hunting requires one million square meters to secure a person’s livelihood, but urbanization restricts many individuals from accessing such vast spaces. On the other hand, if agriculture can address livelihood needs with just 500 square meters, and its efficiency can increase by 2,000 times, then the perspective on the epidemic reveals insights about civilization. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
