Just my thoughts #0829

Adequacy : Moderate and appropriate nature. In the early days of the Roman Empire , Emperor Tiberius hosted a grand feast and invited an inventor. The inventor presented a glass as a gift, and the emperor inquired about its features. When the inventor claimed that the glass was unbreakable , the emperor dropped it on the floor. Only one side was dented, and the emperor touched that spot, restoring it to its original condition. Astonished, the emperor asked the inventor, “Have you ever taught anyone how to make this glass?” The inventor replied, “I did not tell anyone.” Then the emperor ordered his execution because if the recipe for the glass were known, the value of the emperor’s gold and silver treasures would plummet. No matter how excellent something is, it can be the worst depending on the situation and context. That’s why adequacy is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Don’t try to learn from failure... I’ve failed a lot, but I’ve never learned from it. It is a lie to say that you can learn from it even if you fail without fear of failure. It was when I struggled not to fail that I could learn. Failure is only something to accept; you will fail again if you try to learn something from it. Failure is not a tool for learning lessons. It’s not worth it. Human beings learn from unremitting efforts not to fail. Don’t be fooled by petty consolation... Life is short. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
