Just my thoughts #0761

To be complex, one must first be simple. Because, unless it’s simple, it’s hard to get complicated. Every complex problem is a combination of simple problems. People tend to think that intelligence is complex. However, in hindsight, memory is just a continuation and connection of simplicity made up of thoughtful ingredients. Still, it is burdensome and complicated to find simplicity in an already complex system. Therefore, the pursuit of simplicity is a burdensome decision, one that requires a willingness to understand this complexity first. Growing up in the mind means taking on this burden and being willing to take on the challenge of finding simplicity in a formally complex system. It’s like a child taking their first steps, trying to get up while risking falling with their whole body. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

One of the most important essentials of business is cognitive dissonance resolution. When researching who watches the Ford Motor Company commercials the most, the results are not potential customers but purchased customers. They want to confirm that their decisions were right or to receive continuous support after their purchases. Because we can never go back to the past, getting confirmation and support from someone makes us easy and comfortable beyond our regrets. So the company's strategy should focus on repurchasing the existing customers, not the new ones. In many business cases, businessmen should avoid assumptions or predictions. We shouldn't run a business depending on our thoughts only. - Joseph's "just my thoughts
