All of these originate from trees, yet, they’re RADICALLY different. Also, the value of each product can be radically different.
What makes them so unique and special?
CREATIVITY AND THINKING.
Human creativity and thinking has unlimited potential. A tree will always be a tree. It’s human creativity and thinking which is the catalyst behind creating unlimited things.
Think about the hundreds of paper products which humans have created out of trees: books, paper bags, notebooks, packaging materials, calendars, boxes, coffee filters, egg cartons, envelopes, paper tissues, toilet paper, magazines, newspapers, paper towels, cards, wallpaper…
ALL of these are the result of a tree plus human creativity and thinking!
Billions of people around the world have the physical strength to cut down a tree — but very few have the creativity and thinking abilities required to transform a commodity like a tree into something extremely valuable.
