Profits and Rewards: While profit and reward may seem similar at first glance, they are distinct concepts. Profit is more practical than reward and has a genetic basis. Reward, in contrast, offers comprehensive benefits and is aligned with life. For example, if a company promises to give stock options to its employees, that is a reward; however, if the stock option is officially recorded by a resolution of the shareholders’ general meeting, that is a profit. Profit reflects the realization of rewards. Our genes seek profit more than rewards. Nevertheless, rewards also help sustain life. An example illustrating the difference between profit and reward is seen in loss. Gambling and drugs may offer us emotional rewards, but they also show how we can experience diminishing returns by wasting our resources. Profits and rewards are clearly different. Many people confuse the two, which can harm relationships. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The dew is small, but because of its transparent, convex lens -like shape, it captures everything around it in that tiny water droplet. The fact that such a small size can contain so much information is truly astonishing. Sometimes size matters, but material and shape are often more important. If your bowl is small, don’t be discouraged; it’s better to focus on the material and shape. Greatness makes no excuses. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
