Systems

I prefer Traditional Chinese Medicine because it deals with the body system, rather than the individual problems/symptoms.

I think ecology is an advance study because it has learn that it is important to look at the whole system, rather than the individual species.

There are many systems in the universe. Still, many people choose not to deal with the system, but the individual parts. Human society is a system, human family is a system. Yet, this morning on the radio there was discussion on solving low reproducing rate by facilitating women who don't want marriage to give birth to children. This is RIDICULOUS!

Sudoku is a simple game that illustrate you can't just be concerned with a row, or a column, or the sub-square, but must consider all simultaneously.

Low reporduction rate isn't just about the number of births. There are many factors. Although it is tedious to deal with all of the factors, but dealing with just one and the most obvious factor is not the way too!

First impression

There has been talks recently on how much false information can be acceptable in resume. I think this is an area lacking guidelines. Potential employees try to give the best first impression. Good employers probably ignore all these gimicks. It is similar to guys trying to give good impression to girls, and the smart girls look at deeper contents, and vice-versa.

Personally, I prefer the old style of apprenticeship, with enhancement by the modern systematic evaluation methods.

suitable words

Purpose of communication is for the listener to understand the speaker. Thus, the language and words used should be selected with reference to the listener. However, I notice there are people whose purpose of communication is to express themselves. In this case, the media/language/words used were suitable to the speaker, and usually listeners do not understand.

When I am a listener in such situation, I won't be too anxious to know what's the message, because that's not the purpose of the speaker to speak in the first place.

They suffer, but so what?

Many of us must have experienced bad service somewhere. Sometime so angry to feel like wanna take some kind of revenge. May be spread poor comments about them. Usually the most we could do is to stop giving business to the company. Some good people spend time to send in feedback, which sadly taken as complains often.

May be eventually the poor or bad service company will not survive, but what's that to us customers?

I wish there valuable bad experiences could be collected and be used for the betterment of all.
