Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

Crisis overcoming and development both begin with “what I have,” not “what I have lost.” “What I have” consists of [everything I possess now, including what I lent to others] minus [what I’ve borrowed from others], [what I’ve inherited], [what I’ve received as gifts], and [what I’ve taken unlawfully]. [What I have] + [What I’ve inherited] + [What I’ve received as gifts] is referred to as [own assets] or [net assets], additionally includes [something I borrowed], and subtracting [something stolen] in my possession, it is called [asset]. To pay off the liabilities (debts), you must have [net assets] or possess [something I borrowed from others]. The only other way to do this is to repay with [something I stole], but it’s a crime. The ultimate goal of any business activity is to acquire [assets]. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

It’s not that humans can simply throw it away or empty it because they possess something; instead, they exchange what is outside of them with what is inside of them. If you discard it, you will receive it. The people just don’t understand this law. To obtain what’s beneficial for you, you need to care for your surroundings. This is why self-management is essential. Not discarding—meaning trying to gain without exchanging—is referred to as greed or avarice. The heavier object in the swamp sinks faster. Escape from a crisis comes not from giving up, but from the exchange. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Don’t build a house on a breathtaking mountain. Instead, constructing a home where we can admire the mountain is a submission to reason. If you possess it solely for its beauty and appeal, its value will diminish. People can distinguish between good and bad, but they lack the knowledge to create, maintain, and extend value. They aspire to have nice things yet avoid contemplating how to boost their worth. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
