AN EYE FOR DETAIL

A skill that is worth developing is having an eye for detail. We may be those who see the big picture but not the details, meaning we will miss some of the most important aspects of life. Once it is brought to your attention that you have been in a room for a long time but missed small significant details, it illuminates that you only notice big-picture things. To understand the dynamics of life is to develop the skill of introspection and discover that what you didn’t see is something you need to build. The more detailed we can be in observing every small thing that we may not usually notice will help us discover other aspects of life. Recently, I have noticed this in other people that they don’t see, but then I discovered it in myself. We do not want to sleepwalk through life.

This isn’t just a problem a few make we all tend to only see what is essential at the time. If there were ten people to witness an accident, their observation of it might be completely different from what they noticed I may not see. It may be because we are standing in relation to the accident from different perspectives which means we do not get the full view we may notice the tyre skidded out of control and veered left but from another vantage point, it was obvious to another observer that the driver was distracted before the tyres skidded and were not focusing on the road. Whatever points of reference were observed by different onlookers helped broaden the information collected as evidence to give investigators of the crash a full picture story. However, it is the smallest details that matter as big picture thinking will only notice the tires and the impact of the vehicles.

The key observation was the distracted driver, but if that is missed, other information may distort the view of investigators. In a classroom full of children, one learning style is offered with diagrams and numbers drawn on a whiteboard when explaining geometry to young children who are just developing their intellectual curiosity. If it is just presented from that method and you have a roomful of distracted learners because the way they learn may be sensory or explained from a different point of view and made more practical so they can interact or they need other physical examples. The teacher is not noticing the children that are completely lost because she just wants to finish her math’s unit to complete compulsory school standards. Those children may leave the room more confused than when the teacher started because she was not detailed to observe children’s attention span had gone or demonstrated through different learning styles making the content more engaging.

There are example after example of life situations where the skill of an eye for detail is needed. What we can do to develop this skill is to intentionally notice what we do not see and become aware of different possibilities. This will also develop your introspection skills when you practice this daily. If you are good at observing the big picture but not noticing details, it’s like being inclined more left brain than right but integrating logic with creativity can make all the difference. Leonardo Da Vinci was an expert at observation. He noticed the intricacies of life, and his work reflected that in his drawing. He was an absolute genius because 0oof the observation skills he had developed. He would observe the swills of water for hours, which means he is looking for details if we just look at the surface, we miss everything that is hidden from view because it is less obvious.

One of the most profound discoveries could be developing a question worth a long-term inquiry and something you are sincerely interested in, like perspective or worldview, why people have different perspectives, how the mind has believed a story, and what ideas someone has associated with something untrue. Everyone will have a different question based on their interests. A part of life that you want to understand deeper means you must get to every small detail you may have not yet observed by studying something for an extended period.

If you think about how significant this is, Isaac Newton studied the force created by the apple dropping on his head. Thomas Edison studied the lightbulb until he found the most significant small details. Einstein studied the law of relativity, which opened up a world of discovery. This is why it’s important to note the small details and what you have bypassed. This is the most interesting fact of life you don’t know what you don’t know until it becomes conscious. Never think you know everything about any subject, including God. He is a continuous discovery. By observing nature, we can see how magnificent he is through all the products he has made, even our bodies and how our soul and spirit are three parts in one as he knitted us together in our mother’s womb.

Even understanding the depth of that, we may have barely touched the surface because we need greater observation skills. The power of observation cannot be dismissed as it is one of life’s most essential parts of who we are. We observe as children the models in our environment that go on to affect us for a lifetime unless we develop the skill of introspection awareness and observation also, we need to be actively conscious to relay develop the fullness of observation and having an eye for implicit and explicit details. Observe interactions with different people and what they bring out in you and inquire why we have so many diverse aspects to ourselves. It is not that we change, but just as two chemicals create different products or reactions, it’s like the various people we know. There may be a greater depth with some and more trust with some than others. All these questions lead to discoveries about us the world around us, and life. Studying the finer details comes from an intention to observe what you don’t ordinarily see on the surface of life.

A loss of respect can close doors that even the most heartfelt apology cannot re-open. Once you’re across a certain line — in your words, in your actions, in your attitude — you break that trust, and something inside the other person dies. People can forgive, but they may not forget how you made them feel. When respect is gone from a relationship, it’s very hard to get it back and things may never be close to the same again. So be careful whom you dump on: especially the people who actually give a damn. Because often, “I’m sorry” doesn’t cut it to reverse the damage that was done.

VALUE CHAIN

If you want to make the most of every minute of the day by continually adding value to yourself, others, or a product or service, the best approach is to create a value chain. A value chain is a series of linked activities, each contributing in different ways to generating value and focusing on a product, whether it's something you are nurturing within yourself, fostering in others, or a physical product or service. First, you must uncover what is already within you for God's purpose in sending you to this earth. Everyone has a calling where grace will be found to thrive. This could involve building technology, creating music, nurturing a passion for children, or countless other possibilities. That's why it's essential to know yourself and where your calling lies. The activities you incorporate into a value chain should all be centred around that specific purpose. You can transform everything you see and hear into developing a product or service.

For instance, one part of my day is dedicated to writing. Still, it's also linked to other activities, such as allocating time for self-education, reading, observing, and understanding worldviews and critical thinking. You can't leave a talent raw; you need to polish it for it to pay off. You might be musically gifted but must continually refine it, much like polishing a precious diamond. This means you must consistently work on developing it professionally. This could involve further education, seeking guidance from professionals who can coach you, and mixing with others who share a similar gift. You're never an island; you need to connect with people who may be interested in what you offer.

Additionally, you need to develop various skills, such as selling your product through different channels. This means you must be good at marketing yourself. It might involve learning effective communication strategies, using graphics, and knowing the best places to showcase your product. It has to reach people who may not even know your existence. That’s why exploring your market is crucial, and understanding the audience that may be interested in your product is important. You must make your presence known, just as Jesus did, to let people know he was there. Whenever he descended from the mountain, he would heal, teach, or visit certain individuals. The entire town recognised him, yet their reactions varied; crowds followed him because he was full of life, spirit, and truth. People would sit on a mountainside for three days without food, captivated by the content within Jesus, but he had to unveil himself.

That is the same for all of us, as what you have is meant for someone else, not jj. We constantly uncover a new dimension when we maintain consistency in a value chain. Suppose you think about it as if it were the production of a Mercedes. In that case, a series of steps continually lead to the manufacturing of a quality car from raw materials, which parallels a value chain based on your purpose. They are all interconnected like a chain but target different aspects while working together towards a common goal. It is crucial not to overlook any processes, as all the connecting parts of a system are equally important outcomes.

A butterfly undergoing metamorphosis is formed in a chrysalis, which takes 8 to 15 days. It cannot bypass this process to be complete. The amber light, which serves as the intermediary between go and stop, is crucial in preventing accidents and ensuring that traffic is safe for a few seconds before it becomes a compulsory stop. Food must be cooked at the right temperature; it cannot perform its role if the heat is insufficient. There are numerous examples of how critical it is for every step in a system to be implemented for the best outcomes or to produce the expected product. To evaluate life, we must ensure that we do not bypass processes in any aspect. The better we ensure that every part of the process is maximised to its highest potential, the better the product we can create in our lives.

It views life not as a singular action but as a combination of steps involved in everything. The more you enhance the value chain and identify areas for improvement or elements that need to be added or removed to create a cyclical process that ensures the best possible outcome, the more you engage in the thoughtful application of laws. This is how you can maximise your day to produce the best results in your life and achieve your goals. So, if you assess which components need to be added, as they enhance the process and, as demonstrated here if something is lacking, the end goal will not be reached.

That's why it's beneficial to sit down and thoughtfully consider each aspect, focusing on maximising value for the best possible outcome. This may involve acquiring new skills you haven’t yet developed or enhancing your potential. It could mean networking or honing your speaking abilities—everything starts small and is refined through consistent effort. Therefore, identify the areas of your life where you naturally excel, as they are already part of you but need to be polished. This only happens through consistent development. Focus on activities that work together to fulfil a purposeful and intentional life while investing in a product or service.

Do read again carefully and send it to others again. It might just help someone.

We are all old, so everyone should pay attention. Please take a minute to read this article. It may be helpful to you, your family, and your friends.

There was a gathering of old classmates. A lady tripped and fell during a barbecue. Her friends suggested seeing a doctor, but she was sure that she was fine. She just tripped on a brick because of her new shoes. The classmates helped her clean up and served her a plate of food. Then she enjoyed the rest of the time with everyone.

After the gathering, her husband called to inform everyone that she was sent to the hospital and died at 6 PM. because she had a stroke during the barbecue.
If they knew how to identify the signs of a stroke, she might still be with everyone now.

In fact, stroke has precursors and can be prevented. A neurosurgeon said that if he could reach a stroke patient within three hours, he could completely reverse the consequences of a stroke.

The secret is to identify the problem of stroke and get the patient treated within three hours, which is not difficult.

To identify a stroke,
let us remember the three steps of S, T, and R. Please read and learn!
If people around you can not recognize the signs of a stroke, the stroke patient will suffer severe brain damage.

Just ask three simple questions

S: (Smile)
Ask the patient to smile
The corners of the mouth will droop

T: (Talk)
Ask the patient to say a simple sentence (be organized and coherent). For example, today is a sunny day.

R: (Raise)
Ask the patient to raise both hands.
One hand will fall off

Note:
Another sign of stroke is to ask the patient to stick out the tongue. If the tongue is "bent" or tilted to one side, it is also a sign of stroke.

If the patient can not do any of the above four actions, he should call the ambulance immediately and describe the symptoms to the paramedics!

A cardiothoracic physician emphasized that
If everyone who receives this email can forward ten copies to others, at least one life will be saved.

I have done my part!
I hope you will do your part too.
Please forward and forward!

Give roses to others, and the fragrance will remain on your hands!

Give this message to others, and the fragrance of virtue will remain in your heart.

OWNERS OF LIFE

Let’s consider all the areas where we aren’t owners of our time. Whenever you’re in paid employment and trading your time for a wage, you don’t have a say in how you spend that hour, as someone is compensating you a small amount for a piece of your life. Time constitutes your life; it is the very substance of it. Each of us has a set amount of time on earth. For some, that may be ten years; for others, it could be forty, fifty, or more. Whatever you do with your time determines what you produce from your life. I’ve been going through a particularly challenging period due to my understanding of time, and the awareness of what I could create from that time is so painful when you’re not the owner of your own life. Most people don’t even grasp the concept of what time is for, which is why they squander it on trivial pursuits.

Some may think going to the café, dining out, or lounging by the pool is the best life. From my perspective, this goes completely against my value system. I dislike an unstructured life or simply engaging in mundane routines without creating value. For personal reasons, I cannot explain what has held me back from living the most fulfilling lifestyle when others want to confine me for their benefit, not even understanding what they are doing because they do not value time for lack of understanding. Although I know the season is coming to a close, I will return to doing what I enjoy most: constant self-education. It is the fabric of my life because I understand that, with the years allotted, I want to maximise as much value as possible to be useful to God's kingdom.

For me, that is the purpose of life. We sell our lives for peanuts when we trade them for a low-yielding, mundane lifestyle. I cringe at wasting time simply because I understand its value. However, most people around me and in my culture have little idea of what time truly is, as they hold different philosophies shaped by their values and stages in life. This could involve family, raising children, going on holidays, retirement, making money, seeking pleasure, excitement, or adventure. Each perspective influences how we experience life. Alternatively, some might believe that time is meant for themselves; it all depends on one's worldview. This is why the most fundamental aspect of life is grasping the logic behind one’s worldview, which many people have little, if any, understanding of.

Yet the most valuable thing in life is time. We create everything from time. Warren Buffett is a man of integrity and possesses an exceedingly high net worth that he has built for himself. What he has accomplished with time, particularly in the financial realm, is outstanding due to his values. He is an honourable man because of what he created over time. Hitler killed six million Jews in his lifetime, and that was how he chose to live. Bin Laden was a radical Islamic terrorist, and he killed and destroyed many lives due to his misguided philosophy. Billy Graham, a well-known evangelist, redeemed his time by reaping a harvest for God's kingdom. He tapped into the gift within him and built heaven’s asset column. We choose to live for ourselves, God, or others.

I don’t mean that you should become someone’s spare tyre, only to be used when theirs is flat, or that you’re building someone else's dream at your own expense. I mean that serving mankind with whatever God has placed in you should be a constant lifestyle of converting value. Many people are not givers; they hoard. I’m not just talking about money; there is so much within us that we must empty ourselves of, and it is meant for others. Everything you see in this world was created for a purpose: the sun, rain, fruit, trees, fish, oxygen, and even the cockroach and the rat. Nothing was made for itself. How much more so for man, created in God's image and likeness? Even your eyes were designed for a specific purpose. Every part of your body serves a particular function, and when it is maximised and used to build God's kingdom, it fulfils the purpose of its design and is maximised for His glory. I need my hands to write and my mind to think; I use words to communicate ideas that are the raw materials from which life is made, as our words frame ideas that shape thoughts and influence how we perceive the world. We share in that communication.

We may not always agree with each other on some issues, just as I have had conflicts with someone else’s value system; however, this is often due to their lack of understanding about concepts beyond their grasp. I constantly contend with distractions because I cherish the quiet needed to perform at my best, believing that the right environment is essential. Another important aspect of living a high-yielding lifestyle is identifying the settings where you flourish and then optimising them to extract as much value as possible from that time. It doesn’t matter what you possess or lack if you recognise the wealth of time and manage to infuse each day with immense value; that is how you live your best life without regrets.
