Optimization: Adjusting something to reach its best state for a specific purpose. We often think that the fastest and strongest options are the best. The fastest way down a slope isn’t a straight line, but a parabola that naturally connects high and low points. A sniper can cause more lethal wounds at 400 meters than at 200 meters. Although the bullet travels faster at 200 meters, the wound size isn’t as large, and at 400 meters, the slower-moving bullet over a longer distance causes more friction as it passes through the wound, resulting in more severe injuries. In every situation, there is an optimal choice suited to the goal. Trial and error are useful for finding this optimization. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The Awakening Formula: [Mine = all of my properties - borrowed - inherited - gifted - stolen - cheated out of]. If you exceed this “mine,” it’s time to wake up. All economic activities should commence with the amount you consider to be a genuine “mine.” It is essential to view it as a sin to enjoy anything “first” or “more” than that. Caring for what belongs to you is the initial step toward success and the foundation of life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
