A ‘transaction’ is an act of debt between parties. The seller owes goods to the buyer (performance debt), and the buyer owes money to the seller (monetary debt). A transaction is considered complete when the debt is settled and the promise to owe each other is called a ‘contract.’ Thus, a good trader or businessman excels at making and repaying debts. When it comes to debt, the type of debt matters. Anyone who misjudges this should not engage in business. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In fact, more often than not, a multitude of thoughts leads to a choice disorder, primarily because you don’t know yourself well. Self-needs are easily recognized, yet many individuals lack awareness of their desires. Desire is often intricately wrapped in morality, making it more likely that you remain oblivious to it. If you don’t understand what you want, you’ll hesitate to make a choice. This results in the worry that your choices won’t satisfy desires you ’ re unaware of. Having a healthy mind entails honestly aligning your choices and decisions with your desires. Nevertheless, morality, dignity, and concern for others often hinder honest choices. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Honesty can often be painful. To minimize the hurt caused by honesty, it is crucial to consider who delivers the message. In other words, if a respected individual speaks candidly, people are likely to feel less discomfort. Organizations can falter if honesty is prioritized over a culture of respect. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
