Partnership: We can’t operate alone. Transactions involve counterparties. Ultimately, business is about establishing and managing relationships with others. Without mutual benefit, trade falters and conducting business becomes difficult. When starting a business, keep a partnership in mind. The key to a partnership is “how to share,” not “how much to earn.” If the distribution isn’t rational, distortions will occur within the organization, which can harm the bottom line. Failing to distribute fairly or according to the situation increases the risk of business failure. Breaking up with a partner might seem better sometimes, but the core conflict remains; only it shifts from internal to external. To succeed in business, focus on distributing profits effectively rather than solely increasing them. Learning to distribute well is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Text and images emerge from thoughts. Although the thought is ‘abstract,’ the text and images are ‘conceived.’ In transforming abstraction into conception, we genuinely realize reason and ultimately awaken knowledge. We cannot comprehend something if we merely see and hear. We don’t write because we know it; rather, we come to know through writing. Design doesn’t originate from good ideas but stems from validating thoughts through ample inspiration. Just as skillful typing doesn’t guarantee good writing, proficiently using drawing software doesn’t ensure good design. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
