Optimization: Adjusting something to reach its best state for a specific purpose. We often think that the fastest and strongest options are the best. The fastest way down a slope isn’t a straight line, but a parabola that naturally connects high and low points. A sniper can cause more lethal wounds at 400 meters than at 200 meters. Although the bullet travels faster at 200 meters, the wound size isn’t as large, and at 400 meters, the slower-moving bullet over a longer distance causes more friction as it passes through the wound, resulting in more severe injuries. In every situation, there is an optimal choice suited to the goal. Trial and error are useful for finding this optimization. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Micro-movement refers to small shifts. Kim Yong-woon, who authored the book “History’s Counterattack,” states that before a state changes, an ambiguous phase occurs during the process. This is called ‘micro-movement,’ and he argues that a rigid organization that suppresses this micro-movement will ultimately lead to frustration or catastrophe. He explains that permitting micro-movement equates to autonomy, and an open organization that allows this fosters ‘self-organization’ and the ‘emergence of creativity.’ He also mentions that human ability is defined as pattern recognition, which helps distinguish between ‘trivial’ and ‘essential’ elements. It is believed that when human activity reaches a critical point, key insights can be derived from seemingly trivial details. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Problem-solving, often referred to as the Great Revolution, starts with seemingly trivial questions. The foundation of all ideas lies in inquiries, particularly those we might overlook. People question out of curiosity and, at times, skepticism. Stating that the answer is readily available suggests that the hint toward a solution stems from a simple question. Inquisition illuminates human intellect. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

If our daily diligence is repeated and accumulated, there is a huge difference between doing and not doing. If 0.99% of my effort and 0.01% of luck, achievement by the effort will be prominent, but also we cannot ignore the result with the achievement taken from luck. There are so many reasons that we must be modest after achieving our goals. Even so small and trivial, continuously repeating our diligence day by day, our lives should be changed. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
