Investing means investing time, not people or assets. The object you invest in doesn’t generate money; time does. Failing to understand the role and principles of time in business and investment is a waste of energy. Because time is invisible, we often overlook it or fail to recognize its impact and role. This world is driven by probability. When dealing with probability, the first thing to consider is the invisible nature of time. Ignoring this fact leads to waste and inefficiency without us even realizing the damage. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Talented individuals are more likely to earn significant money in a short period than to generate regular, routine income. However, if they can’t establish a steady income from the substantial earnings they’ve made at once, they risk facing financial difficulties. This is why individuals who earn a large sum quickly need investment knowledge and experience . Understanding how to manage risks rather than just focusing on profit is the most crucial aspect of investing. The best way to mitigate or control risk is to anticipate the future; a steady income facilitates predictions, making risk management easier than in other scenarios. Therefore, a business should prioritize generating a stable income. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The phenomenon where an organization prioritizes self-interest over cooperation between departments is called the silo effect. A silo refers to a chimney-shaped grain storage warehouse, named for its high, stacked walls that isolate it from the outside. If someone controlled the opening by creating only one funnel-shaped outlet at the bottom of the storage room, they could monopolize the grain. This phenomenon often arises when there are ‘irreplaceable talented individuals’ in an organization, which presents a challenge for a boss desiring to develop such individuals. It undermines all the positive functions of the organization. Exceptional individuals organize their impressive performance so that the organization can sustain that performance even in their absence. Misusing talent can ruin a business. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
