Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

Toms Shoes is synonymous with justification marketing through charity. People first praised the idea that if you buy one pair of shoes, you donate another pair to developing countries for free. However, soon after, the donation was criticized by findings from an NGO that indicated it took away jobs for youth in the area. Toms Shoes eventually faced a bankruptcy crisis and decided to hand over management to its creditors. Are there any “good things” in the world? In this hyper-connected society that humanity has never experienced, it is difficult to prevent the deterioration of good intentions or control their effects as intended. Therefore, we must not forget that even if there is something good, it is never something to be proud of. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Video creators often face bankruptcy due to “editing.” Profit is essential for revenue generation; profit is realized only when revenue surpasses costs. “Editing” constitutes a significant “cost” to boost sales. There’s a belief that quality editing enhances the likelihood of sales. While this is somewhat true, survival until a sales surge depends primarily on minimizing costs (editing). It’s not filming, but “editing” that often leads video productions to financial failure. Nonetheless, many production companies fail to adequately factor in editing costs into their overall production expenses. The reality is that a substantial amount of money is tied up in “editing.” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The small good works resemble the great evil, and the large good works resemble the insentience. The words that Confucius said to Jaro. It's better to give even a small good, but rather it can be evil, and cruel behavior is so bitter, but as a result, it becomes often a good thing. The executive is not a person who does good deeds, but a very fatiguing person who sometimes needs to exclude emotions and make profits because it is a good deed not to go bankrupt. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The Japan Airlines that no one thought would ever recover. It was the biggest corporate bankruptcy in Japan. When Kyocera Group Chairman Emeritus Kazuo Inamori took the helm to save Japan Airlines, his priority was to reform the mindset of the employees. Whenever he could, he gathered all employees for lectures on mental reform, and executives were required to attend a separate lecture on mental reform given by Kazuo Inamori every Thursday without exception. The employees' frustration was palpable, but the company returned to the stock market after two years and eight months. There is no magic in running a company. Attitude and mindset are everything. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
