Connection Trap: Derivation differs from the original. Let’s say you’ve uncovered the secrets to investing in stocks and made a fortune. The secret you hold is valuable, but if you publish a book about those secrets and spend time giving lectures and counseling to teach others, it becomes difficult to concentrate on your main job—investing in stocks. Investments, publications, lectures, and consultations all revolve around the theme of “stocks” and are linked by a single story; however, each has its own distinct features. Expanding your work isn’t easy. Adding another item to a restaurant menu creates additional problems. We think that time is limited, but often we fail to use it wisely. It’s a miracle we don’t fail while spending time as if consuming water. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
A big supermarket can do business in the suburbs because of wheels. If someone asked me what is one of the greatest inventions in human history that civilization has ever developed, I would say "wheels." The automobile is also a wheel. Shopping carts are also wheels. Without wheels, how many people would go far and carry heavy loads? Mass distribution is possible because of wheels. To do bulk sales, you have to have a lot of inventory. That means you need a lot of storage space. It also means you need cheap real estate. The trivial circle, the wheel, is the key to solving all these constraints in one shot. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
