This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0449

Both self-respect and self-esteem are emotions that enable individuals to assess themselves and acknowledge their intrinsic value. Is this a form of identity capitalism? Who evaluates it, and who determines the criteria for value? Isn’t existence or nonexistence itself meaningful and valuable? Isn’t my presence in this world already worth something? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

When individuals who have successfully overcome adversity and achieved social recognition view the world through their ability to conquer personal struggles, challenges emerge. Seeing the experience of overcoming hardships through diligent effort as an opportunity to cultivate genuine self-confidence enhances positive self-esteem. However, evaluating everything in the world solely from that perspective can lead to significant difficulties for both yourself and others.

It is often said that blessings are not merely given or received, but discovered. If you fail to recognize the worth of what you already possess, you may overlook its significance, even if it is genuinely offered by someone. Value arises from comparison; yet a person’s sense of worth must originate from within. It is essential to cultivate self-esteem in order to appreciate and take pride in your own possessions, rather than measuring yourself against others. Only then can you establish the right values... - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

With a small ego, even minor issues can bruise self-esteem. While both the content and its container hold significance, a larger container can encompass a wider variety of content. The interplay between content and the size of the container creates emotional scars. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0195

Some leaders find relief only when they dominate the mind, while others serve as limbs. They seek to facilitate threats and collaboration with others to bolster their sense of security. Some of them resort to “gaslighting,” manipulating circumstances to create doubt and maintain control. They view their micromanagement as a notable strength, caring for even the most minor details. Working alongside such a person can reduce even the most capable individuals to feeling foolish and diminish their self-esteem. Unbeknownst to them, those around them are suffocating. The desire to conform is often mistaken for loyalty. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
