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...
Money and attention affect how we experience pain and joy. People tend to feel worse when paying in cash than when using a card . If a restaurant charges you $1 for a spoonful of food, your enjoyment diminishes because you focus more on the cost than the food itself. To reduce spending , you should make spending feel painful .

A study shows electricity use increases by 4% when bills are paid via direct debit . Managing spending involves controlling how much importance you give to it. Ultimately, to reduce expenses, we need to change the system and its structure. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
