The key reason why we must read the flow of the world is survival.
Consider the ebb and flow of the tide. Those who understand the flow of water go out to the mudflats during low tide to dig for clams.
However, those who cannot read the flow of water will not even know that the tide is coming in and will find themselves knee-deep in water while digging for clams in the mudflats.
Just like water, so is the history of the world, and so is world history, the history of the world.
So how can we read the flow of the world? Surprisingly, it's all about "intuition."
The English expression for “take a hint” is “take a hint.”
To figure out hints, you need to develop the ability to find clues hidden in any situation or problem, even if it's indirect.
In this way, it is extremely important to cultivate a keen eye in order to understand not only world history but also the flow of the world itself.
According to the Standard Korean Dictionary, intuition is defined as “the ability to read someone else’s mind based on the situation at that time.”
Just as the ability to infer the situation at each time is the core of intuition, developing intuition requires insight appropriate to the situation.
---From "Entering"

Living with the flow means adopting a flexible attitude.
People say that people should be consistent from the beginning, but I think it's also important to know how to step back for a moment depending on the situation.
An attitude of humbly accepting one's position and preparing for change depending on the situation.
Isn't this the message that medieval Europeans wanted to convey to us?

There is an easy way to figure out what kind of person you are dealing with.
It's about seeing what that person thinks, says, and does when things are at their worst.
Everyone shows their best side when they are in the best situation.
So, some people make the mistake of seeing only a fragmentary image of the other person and thinking that the other person is a good person.
But people show their true colors in times of crisis.
A crisis is like the edge of a cliff; if you twist your foot even a little, you fall to the ground.

The word 'need' has a much scarier connotation than we might think.
This is because necessity presupposes the condition of ‘must’ rather than ‘sufficient’.
For medieval Europeans of the time, the Black Death was a clear crisis.
However, to turn a crisis into an opportunity, you must first 'absolutely' survive.
However, in order to survive, the first priority becomes that you must survive no matter what, even if others die.
And in order to live, humans start by asking this question.
“What do I need now?” Everyone faces a moment of crisis in their lives.
Can you be the person who is indispensable in times of crisis?
---From "The Black Death - What Impact Does Disease Have on Social and Economic Change?"

People are everything, and what my people say is especially important.
The more you love someone, the more you want them to do well, so you say helpful things to them.
So, leaders can gain greater strength when they acknowledge their people and listen to their honest opinions.
This is because, based on the spirit of “a man knows himself and dies for himself,” there is nothing a person cannot do for someone who believes in him and acknowledges him.
That's why sometimes the power of people and the power of love are more frightening than guns and swords.
Because warmth melts cold.

Germany began to show particularly anti-Semitic tendencies after its defeat in World War I.
Of course, anti-Jewish sentiments that have persisted since medieval Europe also played a role.
But the anti-Semitism that emerged in Germany in the early 20th century arose for reasons far beyond what we might imagine.
Germany was unified into 39 separate German states in the late 19th century by Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck, known as the Iron Chancellor.
There was something that Bismarck, who unified Germany, needed most.
It's capital.
There is a reason why Bismarck needed capital.
The superpower of the late 19th century was Britain, and to compete with Britain, Germany needed to develop not only its economy but also its military.
