The ice does not sink; it floats on the water. Water and ice, which are the same substance in different states, can be regarded as fundamentally the same material; yet, they have entirely different effects in practical applications. Many things in the world are the same yet different. Just as a cat likes mice but doesn’t love them, likes and loves are distinct concepts. We often overlook that these subtle differences can lead to significant results. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In philosophy, the term ‘concept’ denotes an idea formed by extracting and synthesizing common elements from an object or phenomenon. If you lack strength, it’s better to focus; however, if you don’t understand the concept, you can’t. Without knowledge of the concept, you remain unaware of the boundaries and classifications, making it difficult to discard what’s useless or select what you genuinely need. Understanding the core idea means grasping a concept that remains constant even when circumstances and environments shift. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Individuals believe that “information” translates to money in the online world, but “attention” actually leads to significant financial gains. Without capturing people’s attention, online information is merely useful but may struggle to generate revenue. Attention operates under a system where the winner takes all (a principle where 80% of results are dominated by 20% of players). Even so, winning once does not guarantee lasting benefits, and to sustain that monopoly, attention must be tied to reputation, as well as good fame. However, attention is a limited resource. It is like a mother who cannot give equal attention to all her children, even if she loves them equally. Thus, choice and focus enhance attention. It’s not information; it’s attention. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
