Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

According to author and leadership consultant Simon Sinek, our brains don’t understand the concept of negativity. For example, giving a negative command to yourself, “Don’t think of elephants!” doesn’t mean you don’t think about elephants; instead, it emphasizes thinking about elephants. It means that “do this!” rather than a negative command of “don’t do it!” leads to a behavior-oriented change in humans. If you use negative expressions when asking or begging someone, you are likely to be rejected or fail. “Eat at the table!” is more likely to result in cleaning the house than “Don’t eat on the sofa!” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There are two main ways humans can generate income: sales power and volatility. Added value is continuously created through production, which involves actions to generate this added value. By adding new layers of value to basic ones, additional value is created—for example, making bread from wheat flour. The ability to persuade someone to buy this added value is known as sales power. Therefore, VAT is a tax paid by the final consumer. When sales power is strong, a significant amount of added value remains, leading to wealth accumulation. The second method is volatility. We can buy and sell assets that create either fundamental or added value. The former includes items like gold or commodities, while the latter refers to companies and assets such as stocks. Volatility occurs because prices fluctuate based on the sales power of producers, creating added value, and the balance between supply and demand for assets. Warren Buffett has avoided investing in gold because it cannot generate add...

The dew is small, but because of its transparent, convex lens-like shape, it captures everything around it in that tiny water droplet. The fact that such a small size can contain so much information is truly astonishing. Sometimes size matters, but material and shape are often more important. If your bowl is small, don’t be discouraged; it’s better to focus on the material and shape. Greatness makes no excuses. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

As a family, there are things we can do and things we cannot do. According to the level of intimacy, actions that are appropriate and those that are not are classified based on the type or nature of the relationship. Our actions are limited by relationships. Relationships influence behavior. Ignoring this is called ‘immorality.’ It is foolish to believe we can do everything by our will. Human beings are destined to do what is proper within a relationship and avoid what should not be done. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

We usually measure ‘value’ in terms of ‘price.’ Value is an abstract concept, and price is a number expressed in terms of value. Value is an economic concept, and price is an accounting concept. The problem is that the price in terms of value is not always the same as the price. Of course, the same value differs depending on the situation and also varies according to the values and beliefs of the person who recognizes it. This deviation is detrimental to some and beneficial to others. Facts are unscientific phenomena that circumstances create. Therefore, insight into the situation is a valuable ability in any case in this world. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The good is the state of maintaining goodness itself, not the elimination of evil, and vice versa. Many see “maintenance of state” as proof of existence or non-existence. NO! Failing to maintain the state doesn’t create a new event; it simply allows the opposite to manifest. A single dichotomy can’t judge good and evil. Even in the Bible, it states that separating and removing the wheat and weeds can only happen when a singularity (harvest time, judgment day) occurs. Therefore, energy is needed to sustain a specific state until that singularity arrives. Energy comes from outside. Relationships with others are divided into those where energy is lost and those where energy is gained. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Algorithms are the foundation of how a system functions. A system is a large structure where each component is connected by a specific energy that forms relationships, and the entire system moves in a set direction. Understanding an algorithm provides insight into the system, how it operates, and its overall direction. However, creating an algorithm requires the system creator to take a risk and pay a price for the entire system. That’s why designing an algorithm isn’t easy, even though using one is simple. Once an algorithm is developed, system members become reliant on it. The way to break this reliance is to either discard the algorithm or develop a new one. Knowing which system you belong to and how it functions is extremely important. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
