Compared to the era of a self-sufficient barter economy, everyone’s happiness is greater in the exchange economy, where each person divides their labor into what they do best and exchanges what they produce. This is because the division of labor is more efficient than self-sufficiency in productivity and can further reduce production costs. At this point, a means of exchange agreed upon by society is required, which is called money (currency). In other words, in the exchange economy, specialists who excel in one field are more advantageous for survival than ordinary people. An all-round player is more likely to face starvation. Therefore, a generalist is only advantageous for survival when they can organically integrate their diverse abilities in a specific field or situation, while also managing and restricting the scope of their activities and conditions. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The more startups you have, the more you need to learn and practice. Many startups avoid learning because they are busy and have a lot of work. Knowledge determines structure, and managing is the process of building that structure. However, to create that structure, they do not make the effort to acquire knowledge. Just as you must eat bread one bite at a time, even when you have plenty, sincerity will gradually and steadily lead to knowledge and the establishment of structure. It is important to remember that the consequences can be severe if you neglect a bit of sincerity due to feeling overwhelmed by your environment and circumstances. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
