Just My Thoughts Ebooks

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...

Just my thoughts #0102

The breath that continues every moment becomes our life. Our breaths are always sincere. Sincerity is our burden. However, no one considers the breath a burden. To live, we must persist. The paradox is this: if the burden is light, we can ignore it and feel we don't have a reason to continue. It is a weakness of small integrity. To live a better life, we have to do something small every day that's even small, but not burdensome, like breathing. Pretend to be fooled, but believe me just once. Life will change. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0097

Knowing someone and being friendly with someone are two very different things. Two main ways to build relationships with main motives are affiliation and intimacy. "Affiliation motivation" is the psychological action of getting along with others to avoid rejection. The "intimacy motive" is to increase intimacy with a select few and establish a stable relationship. It would be mentally strained to have more than 10 to 15 relationships. If you feel burdened by human relationships, you must examine your treatment of people with "affinity." The fear of being rejected is what drives the mind. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts”
