Metropolis and Transportation: For mankind, a ‘city’ was a ‘place’ where people were born, grew up, and eventually died. It was initially difficult for humans to choose a ‘place’ to live. Humans had to follow the fate they were given. However, with the development of transportation and the widespread adoption of online networks, humans have been able to select their own places of residence. Throughout history, humans have only been able to voluntarily choose where they want to live for a short time. Achieving freedom of movement marks a fundamental change in the form and character of cities. The development of transportation has completely transformed our lives. The emergence and evolution of transportation means, such as electric vehicles and high-speed trains, indicate that we are in the middle of a revolution that humanity is experiencing for the first time. If you do not respond to these changes, you will face difficulties. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The philosopher Aristotle stated, “ We are what we repeatedly do . Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit .” If the repetition of an action is a ‘habit,’ then this ‘habit’ emphasizes the connection between the actions. For instance, if you consistently drink coffee after a meal, it suggests that the preceding ‘meal’ holds more significance than the coffee. In contrast, the connection of coffee following that meal is essential. Even if you cannot drink coffee, you can survive; however, if you cannot eat, your survival is at risk. Meals are important, and they take precedence over coffee. In other words, for an action to be repeated, the persistence and repeatability vary based on the priority of the actions that occur before and after the habit. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
