If God granted me only one ability to become wealthy, I would not hesitate to ask for the skill of ‘storytelling.’ ‘Storytelling’ is the ability to choose how to interpret the same phenomenon or fact and how to communicate the message I want to convey persuasively. Ultimately, the world takes sides and gains support through the interpretation and explanation of stories. Gaining attention and support from people is the foundation for achieving a lot from nothing. In a time when there was no modern media, the most popular people were grandmothers and grandfathers who could tell entertaining oral stories every night before bed. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Wise people don’t need managing, foolish people are unnecessary to manage, those who love you don’t require managing, and those who don’t love you aren’t worth managing. This is why I need to be more of ‘me’ rather than trying to conform to others; it also explains why the world is more likely to function properly if I take good care of myself. It doesn’t mean you have to live selfishly, but it does mean you’d better accept altruistic selfishness . - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Don’t build a house on a breathtaking mountain. Instead, constructing a home where we can admire the mountain is a submission to reason. If you possess it solely for its beauty and appeal, its value will diminish. People can distinguish between good and bad, but they lack the knowledge to create, maintain, and extend value. They aspire to have nice things yet avoid contemplating how to boost their worth. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
