Chain Reactions and Links: A phenomenon where one event continuously influences subsequent events, connected by a common link. For example, when the central bank raises the base rate, interest rates at private banks increase, which raises the cost of loans for citizens and leads to higher prices. Interest from central banks, interest from private banks, interest on loans from citizens, and increased production costs are all interconnected, so a change in one part affects the entire system. This is a chain reaction. A decline in one area can cause missed revenue opportunities because everything is connected. The link creates this connection. In the example above, the link is the act of borrowing money, which is essentially a loan. To stop the chain reaction, you must identify and break the link in the chain. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Babies who are only six months old cannot walk. However, with a bit of training, this baby can swim in the water . Just because the baby can’t walk doesn’t mean the baby can’t swim. All humans are born in amniotic fluid in their mother’s womb when they are fetuses . It is normal for a 6-month-old baby to be unable to walk. Yet, the idea that the baby can’t even swim is a prejudice. Our stereotypes stem from taking things for granted. Imagination begins by doubting the obvious. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
