It also means that if I have been fortunate in the way I have lived up to now, misfortune may come one day. Management involves looking at both sides of this coin. When business conditions are good, we need to prepare for tough times, and when business conditions are bad, we need to prepare for better times. If you have experienced misfortunes so far, you should hope that the opposite can also occur. Nothing lasts forever. The universe also changes from time to time, and we must abandon the notion that the society we live in will remain the same. Management is the act of converting uncertainty into certainty. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Fear and doubt are brothers from the same root. They are born together from the root of trust and gnaw away at peace and audacity. Fear is the outward emotional expression of doubt, and it is the fuel that energizes doubts to grow. Doubt feeds on your fear and helps keep it from being set aside. In other words, between doubt and fear, the counterweight of ego serves as the center of gravity. If pride weighs down doubts, it blames others; if it weighs down fears, it finds justifiable reasons and surrenders will. A state in which pride is precisely balanced between doubt and fear is called conflict. So, although conflict intentionally seems to be polite to others, emotionally, it constantly forces them to engage in self-defense against regret in advance. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
