Showing posts with the label weakness

The physical value of a book is a measurable cost of paper, printing, and labor charges, but estimating the value of the book’s contents is difficult. Most intangible values are similarly challenging to assess. We purchase the intangible value of a book at its physical price. When revenues are generated, the added value produced can be realized. These revenues arise solely from sales, which are based on price, not value. In essence, there is always an imbalance between price and value, and this imbalance determines whether one is wealthy or poor. Management is the act that shifts this imbalance in my favor. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Feeling fear often can lead someone with a strong will to try to compensate for their weaknesses or prevent dangers. However, if that person is also smart, they may easily overcompensate. In worldly affairs, change and wealth arise from taking action, not merely from thought. If people experience a lot of fear and are both strong-willed and intelligent, they are more likely to become poor. This happens because they might believe they can achieve their goals through only thinking instead of taking further action. What these individuals often overlook is the value of time, which money cannot buy. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

No individuals achieve greatness merely by improving their weaknesses; on the contrary, many become great despite their disadvantages. Despite their shortcomings, achieving greatness results from focusing on core strengths. Emphasizing strengths can be a more effective approach than simply managing weaknesses. However, individuals with fewer foundational skills often view the lack of basic skills as a weakness; this perception is an illusion. Those without a solid foundation struggle to understand their weaknesses or strengths, making any effort seem pointless. Return to the fundamentals. If a professional manager cannot comprehend financial balance sheets, it would be like watching a circus for blind management. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Sometimes, a person’s strengths are the cause of the problem. The situation determines the direction and use of nature. Each person has the advantage of knowing their strengths well, but it does not take into account the direction and circumstances surrounding those strengths. Strengths and weaknesses are relative concepts. Over-relying on your strengths can lead to issues, and it is also vital to be cautious of developing feelings of inferiority due to your weaknesses. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
