Rejection Cost. From the perspective that my profit is someone else’s loss, and someone else’s profit is my loss, the fact that I have to reject an opportunity to make money for my circumstances is a loss for me and an act of giving someone else a profit. In other words, my added value is not determined solely by productivity but also by the marginal utility generated by the law of supply and demand. Therefore, my labor price should reflect the value that I have given up—the profit I could have gained. If the rejection cost is not included in my profit, I will be at a loss to that extent. Failing to account for rejection costs in production expenses is not wise, but foolish, because it risks my survival. There is no absolute value in this world. All economic values are relative. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The weight of a glass of water isn’t heavy, but holding it for a long time can numb your arm. Obsession matters more than the weight of life. If we cling to both hate and stress for too long, our souls become paralyzed. Even small stresses shouldn’t be dismissed, and even mild hatred shouldn’t be ignored in our hearts. The peril of obsession is that my heart becomes numb without me realizing it, and forgiveness has the power to save both the one who hates me and myself. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
