An asset is the foundation of all economic activity. If you have assets, you can run a business and settle your debts. The ways to create assets are ‘how one works,’ ‘how to receive gifts from others,’ and ‘how to purchase assets made by others.’ There is a way to steal, but it is a crime. If you don’t initially own an asset, the simplest and almost the only way to create one is to produce something with your own labor. Whether the product is a service or a good, it must be produced unconditionally. Trading products creates added value. Thinking about trading later and making products first is the fastest and most basic way to escape poverty. Therefore, produce even the smallest things every day. Knowledge, records, art—whatever! - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Eco-friendly products can sometimes be anti-ecological . Environment and ecology are distinct concepts, but both have a significant impact on human life. Many confuse the two, believing that if something is eco-friendly, it is beyond criticism. This creates the illusion that if a product is good for the environment, it will also be beneficial for the ecosystem . For instance, reducing disposable items can lead to increased detergent use , which may contribute to water pollution . The reality is that what is considered eco-friendly may not be suitable for ecology, and what is ecology-friendly may not necessarily be eco-friendly. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
