It also means that if I have been fortunate in the way I have lived up to now, misfortune may come one day. Management involves looking at both sides of this coin. When business conditions are good, we need to prepare for tough times, and when business conditions are bad, we need to prepare for better times. If you have experienced misfortunes so far, you should hope that the opposite can also occur. Nothing lasts forever. The universe also changes from time to time, and we must abandon the notion that the society we live in will remain the same. Management is the act of converting uncertainty into certainty. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The most important thing in product design and development is “imagination.” While others developed laptops to fit the size of the battery, Steve Jobs imagined a laptop that could fit in an envelope. Then he pressured the battery company. If no technology was available in those days, he would wait. He traveled around the world in search of technology that matched his imagination. He envisioned putting a workstation (OS•X) in a cellphone and developed it for 3 years, but when Apple couldn’t deliver, he demonstrated it by connecting it to a separate workstation. It was a scam, but no one criticized him. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
