Let’s say someone bought a building with a bank loan. If the landlord fails to pay the interest, the bank is forced to pay the principal. If the principal isn’t paid, the bank can put the building up for auction, even though the landlord owns it. Interest is the cost of borrowing money over time. The reason I can purchase a building without using my own money is that I can leverage time through interest. When we say time is money, it doesn’t just mean to save time and live diligently. It emphasizes that time truly represents money. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The irony of sacrifice. Those primarily responsible for the problematic and troubling tasks within the organization can be viewed as possessing a strong spirit of sacrifice. All members of the organization will appreciate those who devote themselves, and others will express gratitude for the contributing members who carry the burden of hard work for them. Their relationships within the organization can also be assumed to be harmonious. However, if the organization fails to compensate these members for their sacrifice adequately, the members who benefited from it will remain, but the dedicated members may feel hurt and potentially decide to leave. Consequently, the organization could become a dysfunctional environment. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
