The experience of things that I thought, 'Will this be helpful?' being put to good use continued after that.
There was no useless work.
As I worked, I realized even more that not a single thing I had experienced while actively running around was in vain.

When you run towards your dreams, erase the calculator in your head.
The thought, 'If I do this now, will it help me in this way later?' is also meaningless.
Because you can't know until you experience it yourself.
Even if it seems reckless, let's just do whatever comes our way.
And once we start, let's see it through to the end.
Any experience that you have had in that situation will definitely help you in some way, somewhere.

If you do nothing, nothing happens.
You must seek, find, and knock for the door to be opened.
So even if I strike out, I just stand up at the plate and swing the bat with all my might.
Even if you can't win first place, let's stand on the track and run until the end.
In the process, you may also discover your own potential.

Waking up early in the morning without any purpose is hard work.
That's why it's helpful to set clear goals that will make you jump out of bed with a happy heart.
Before you go to bed the night before, try to visualize what you will do when you wake up in the morning.
It's best to set specific goals, such as jumping rope 100 times, reading a certain number of pages of a book, or finishing a certain number of assignments.

It's a good idea to choose a fragrant tea or fresh coffee to drink when you wake up in the morning, prepare a sweet snack to eat with it, or prepare your favorite music as a wake-up call.
Or, put the study you wanted to do or the book you wanted to read on the desk.
When you're at a loss as to what to do, I recommend waking up in the morning and writing down everything you want to do in a notebook.
And then I lie in bed and picture in detail what I'll look like the next morning.
---From “Second Order, “Start your day with a warm cup of tea at 5 a.m.”

A fountain pen is a very delicate writing instrument.
It takes a lot of hands.
The ink needs to be replaced frequently, and the nib is weak, so you can't use it with too much force.
Also, if you don't use it consistently, the ink will harden quickly.
Because it spreads easily, paper selection is also important.
Even if you take it on an airplane, the ink can leak due to the difference in air pressure, which can be a miserable experience (I have the unfortunate experience of throwing away a fountain pen every time I go on a business trip).
The reason I like fountain pens and continue to use them, despite them being such a difficult and demanding writing instrument, is because of the feeling of 'taming' them.
The more I use it, the better it feels as it becomes accustomed to my hands.
It seems like it's the feeling that fencers have when they see a fencing sword that looks exactly like theirs just once and they know it's theirs.
The moment I pick up the pen, it feels like it fits comfortably in my hand.
By using them consistently every day and being together, they become accustomed to each other.
So I feel attached to it.
This is why, although I use a variety of fountain pens, I always pick up the same one when preparing news.
Amazingly, it is now possible to even predict when the ink will run out.

Every morning when I arrive at the office, there are nine different newspapers neatly arranged on my desk.
There are seven daily newspapers, one economic newspaper, and an English newspaper.
Adding the evening editions that arrive after 2 p.m., reading a total of ten newspapers is a homework assignment for me and a habit I've maintained since taking on the role of news reporter.

I started scraping newspaper articles because I was wondering how I could read, study, and learn articles as effectively as possible in a short period of time.
When you read a newspaper, it summarizes the key information of the day, so you can keep up with articles and information you may have missed while reading articles selected from the Internet.
In short, you can acquire a wide variety of information.

It is important to know the trends and current affairs in the field you are interested in or currently working in.
Even if it doesn't seem to help you directly in the short term, it can inspire and foster forward-looking insight in the long run.
So, I would like to recommend Scrapbook, which checks and organizes news in your field every day.
---From the fourth order, “Would you like to study together?”

No one can be free from evaluation.
Moreover, in corporate life, you often meet people who judge others by their own standards.
If you do that, at some point you will end up confining yourself to the world's evaluation of you.

But other people's evaluations should not become my standard.
If you don't want to be swayed by what others say, it's a good idea to set your own standards for evaluating yourself.
The goals and plans introduced above are good means.
If I live each day faithfully according to my goals and plans, then I am doing well enough.
So there is no need to be swayed by the words of those who only evaluate my appearance.
Accept yourself as you are and plan what you can do 'at this age'.
This is where my uniqueness begins.

---「Fifth order, “Well done.
I tried hard.
From "You're doing well"

Let's go slowly and far.
Let's be like Kershaw, who is boringly consistent.
Even Kershaw, the best pitcher in Major League Baseball, took over 10 years to win a championship.
It's not too late to get frustrated after trying consistently to that extent.
By making this decision and encouraging myself, I was able to come this far.
Repeating the same thing at the same time, in the same place, every day.
It's such a difficult task.
But I believe that the person who overcomes that difficulty will ultimately win.
So, don't get tired and live each day with sincerity, step by step.

Consistency and sincerity are the best weapons that surpass talent.
It is the most accurate and fastest way to make even ordinary people extraordinary.
A steady and sincere person will quickly regain his composure even if he is shaken by the occasional waver.
Because it has been done for a long time, it has become ingrained in you.
