demand and supply

you need to do it first, before you can demand it of others. but even if you have done it and demand it, it doesn't mean that they have to do it.

just because you demand, doesnt mean there's supply.

you see, the market doesn't always clear.

you have to ask: why are people unwilling to supply?

to answer this question, you have to go in and understand them.

not pretend to think you know them. if there is a misalignment of interests, you can never come to a common point.

you need to understand this first. otherwise, you will always be wondering why there is a shortage.
