Hello. I’m Yasui, the president of a one-person company primarily engaged in inspections of high-pressure gas facilities.
This year, I’ll be working right up until the 30th.
This month’s sales are… not great! Ouch.
The fact that numbers don’t grow much during the winter is truly a source of worry.
Right now, I’m reading the world-renowned bestseller The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Dr. Stephen R. Covey.
It’s about 500 pages long and I’m still in the early stages, but I’m steadily making my way through it.
In the book, there’s a point about how growth never happens without following proper order.
We’re always looking for more efficient ways to grow, or so-called “time-efficient” shortcuts.
With so much information overflowing around us, it’s easy to look for superficial tricks or quick fixes to deal with the problems right in front of us—and to rely on them.
But that’s not really the point.
What seems to be required is looking at things more fundamentally, more essentially.
For example, if you want to be understood by others, you must first try to understand them.
If you want to obtain what you desire, you should first prioritize the benefit of those around you.
To achieve such things, it’s necessary to elevate one’s character—knowledge, insight, and mental maturity.
That said, character doesn’t improve overnight.
And even if you rely on techniques or tricks, patching things up on the surface with flimsy methods will be seen through easily by others.
That’s why, rather than using information or techniques to gloss things over, we need to change our habits, keep learning, and in real life think about the people around us—our friends, our coworkers—and gradually, little by little, nurture trust as if planting seeds and carefully raising them.
No seed suddenly grows into a giant tree.
I believe that truly remarkable people in this world carefully nurture their seeds, let them sprout, grow them, and eventually reap the harvest.
Step by step, steadily.
There is no dramatic, one-leap solution that suddenly transforms your environment.
If you haven’t been doing this kind of thing up to your current age, it can feel quite tough.
But that doesn’t mean it’s something to give up on as pointless.
Even we ordinary people can nurture trust and credibility, and care for our families and companions beyond ourselves.
Let’s do our best, keeping the happiness we want ten years from now firmly in mind.
Thank you very much for reading this far.
See you next time!
