Partnership: We can’t operate alone. Transactions involve counterparties. Ultimately, business is about establishing and managing relationships with others. Without mutual benefit, trade falters and conducting business becomes difficult. When starting a business, keep a partnership in mind. The key to a partnership is “how to share,” not “how much to earn.” If the distribution isn’t rational, distortions will occur within the organization, which can harm the bottom line. Failing to distribute fairly or according to the situation increases the risk of business failure. Breaking up with a partner might seem better sometimes, but the core conflict remains; only it shifts from internal to external. To succeed in business, focus on distributing profits effectively rather than solely increasing them. Learning to distribute well is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Human beings don't know the substance of time. The time we know is only a sign expressed mathematically and astronomically by the machine "clock." Human life under the minute-unit system began when human beings lived with a comparatively precise machine. Before the Industrial Revolution, a concept of time naturally followed the ordinary way of life. When a promise was made, the condition was, "Let's meet before dinner." Therefore, there was a rare case of people angrily going outside because the counterparty was 10 minutes late. The framework that the human being makes, makes the human being again. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
