Adequacy : Moderate and appropriate nature. In the early days of the Roman Empire , Emperor Tiberius hosted a grand feast and invited an inventor. The inventor presented a glass as a gift, and the emperor inquired about its features. When the inventor claimed that the glass was unbreakable , the emperor dropped it on the floor. Only one side was dented, and the emperor touched that spot, restoring it to its original condition. Astonished, the emperor asked the inventor, “Have you ever taught anyone how to make this glass?” The inventor replied, “I did not tell anyone.” Then the emperor ordered his execution because if the recipe for the glass were known, the value of the emperor’s gold and silver treasures would plummet. No matter how excellent something is, it can be the worst depending on the situation and context. That’s why adequacy is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
People don’t work efficiently at first. Efficiency comes from trial and error . In other words, if you don’t try, your chances of becoming efficient are slim. The navigation system only works when the destination is entered. More importantly, it only functions well when the starting point is input accurately. The system recognizes the starting point automatically and guides you to the destination, but if the origin is wrong, problems will occur. Change, growth, and progress only happen when you confirm your identity . You need to ask more than ten people around you to understand who you are. The most reliable method is to look in the mirror and wipe away the stains from your face. If you try to remove a stain by guessing, you might sometimes succeed by luck, but that’s just called ‘ hard work .’ - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
