No matter how smart you are, if you don’t exchange values, you’ll starve to death. For one thing, being self-sufficient enables survival, but self-sufficiency is only possible if you have your own assets and can borrow from others. However, even with existing assets, one can only survive through minimal labor and effort, which means engaging in productive activities. Thus, having great intelligence and applying that intelligence to productive activities are two different things. Even if you aren’t brilliant, you can survive if you are productive. It’s essential to identify the productive activities in which I excel and those where I need improvement. If I understand that, I must act without looking back. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
No matter how much honey you have, honey alone cannot attract bees and butterflies. The scent may be invisible, but it exists, and it brings life. As a result, both plants and insects thrive. No matter how hard you try to conceal it, the scent is what you exude. The scent is also significant to humanity. All scents are difficult to hide. The scent is created simply by being present. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
