If God granted me only one ability to become wealthy, I would not hesitate to ask for the skill of ‘storytelling.’ ‘Storytelling’ is the ability to choose how to interpret the same phenomenon or fact and how to communicate the message I want to convey persuasively. Ultimately, the world takes sides and gains support through the interpretation and explanation of stories. Gaining attention and support from people is the foundation for achieving a lot from nothing. In a time when there was no modern media, the most popular people were grandmothers and grandfathers who could tell entertaining oral stories every night before bed. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
In primitive times, there was no such thing as ‘ coincidence ’ because all unknown and unpredictable events were interpreted as divine revelation . This reflects a religious and deterministic worldview. Since Christianity was dominant in the West, science also developed based on this deterministic perspective . However, with the rise of quantum mechanics , it has been revealed that the natural world we live in exists in an indeterminate state . Matter is in an uncertain state and becomes determined only when observed by an observer. In other words, the act of observation influences the behavior of the object being observed. To exist and to observe is a deeply metaphysical phenomenon . Do coincidences truly exist? When a decision was made in an undecided state, did God already know the outcome? How much freedom and discretion do humans really have? Does free will truly exist? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
