Your beliefs become your thoughts

 

Mahatma Gandhi once said,

                                                     Your beliefs become your thoughts,
                                                     Your thoughts become your words,
                                                     Your words become your actions,
                                                     Your actions become your habits,
                                                     Your habits become your values,
                                                     Your values become your destiny.”

 

 

 

Mr.Sato himself became rich by his unique method.

He says that his words became his good destiny in the end.  

    

 

 

 

Since his childhood, he talk big about himself.

When his friend asked him what kind of woman you'd liked to get married,

he said "I'll definitely marry an actress."

It became true shortly afterwards.

 

With his experiences and his study, he is certain that the habit of saying has great influence on the consequences. Your words plays a really important role in your life.     

 

 

Now he's no longer with us.

Till the end of his life, he has enjoyed himself.

He loved hunting, motorcycling and sailing boat.

He was a living example of  good life.

Yosui, a legendary japanese singer and wonder

It is a great pleasure to be contemporary with such a wonderful man.

 

First, look at the picture below.

Judge by his appearance.

Don't you feel something extraordinary?

 

 

 

Since 70s he's been a great and influential singer and songwriter in Japan.

Beginning his career as a folk singer who was shocked by Bob Dylan, he has affected many people by his addictive lyrics.

They are quite different from other pop singers'.

For example,  one of his huge success "I have no umbrella (Kasa ga nai)"starts like this.

 

There are great increase in youth's suicides here in this big city

according to the newspaper today.

But what matters to me is just that I have no umbrella.

 

 

 

He's still going strong.

He gives us great live performances every year.

Travelling all over Japan, Yosui sings us songs, which lead us to the unusual world.

The Otaku King's Introduction to Buddhism

If Steve Jobs had been born in Japan and was into Otaku culture, he must be like this man.

This man, MIURA Jun, has deep insight based on Buddhism into Japanese culture.

Not only a famed illustrator and manga creator in Japan, he often tells us with a sense of humor the new perspective to life.

 

   

 

 

 This book is about how he's been interested in Buddhism and how we can apply the principles to our life.

 

For example, he felt " the impermanence of worldly things" when he dropped his precious China Statue of Buddha on the floor and it went into smithereens. The fact that even powerful being like Buddha is inevitable to die affected his way of thinking, he says. 

 

 

 

 

 

Now here in Japan, a lot of people are looking for the answer about who I am.

But the author thinks different. He insists that losing yourself is the best way to live a happy life. 

 Not focusing on yourself, you should see the world around you.

You'll find many attractive people there and feel something that is not found in you.

 

Serendipity is the key to happiness.

A new book by Inamori Kazuo: Posses a fighting spirit!

Do you know who he is?

 

His name is Inamori Kazuo. He is a big shot here in Japan. Because he is successful in the business world and shows us his unique and useful philosophy. At first, he became famous as the founder of Kyocera corporation. Second, as the founder of KDDI. And finally, as the chairman of Japan Airlines(JAL).  

 

To the Japanese surprise, though he was an outsider of the airline industry, he achieved his goal to direct JAL resuscitation only in three years.  He has a reputation as a skillful management.       

 

 

Here is the twelve principles by Dr.Inamori.

 

1.		Clearly state the purpose and mission of your business.
		Set high objectives that are noble, just and fair.
2.		Set specific goals.
		Once targets are set, share them with all employees.
3.		Keep a passionate desire in your heart.
		Your desire must be strong and persistent to penetrate into your subconscious mind.
4.		Strive harder than anyone else.
		Work steadily and diligently, one step at a time, never relenting in tedious tasks.
5.		Maximize revenues and minimize expenses.
		Measure your inflow and control your outflow; don't chase profit, but let it follow your effort.
6.		Pricing is management.
		Pricing is top management's responsibility: to find that one point where customers are happy and the company is most profitable.
7.		Success is determined by willpower.
		Business management requires a persistent, "rock-piercing" will.
8.		Possess a fighting spirit.
		Management requires a more combative mentality than any martial art.
9.		Face every challenge with courage.
		Be fair and never deceive others.
10.		Always be creative in your work.
		Innovate and improve continuously. Today should be better than yesterday; tomorrow, better than today.
11.		Be kind and sincere.
		Business is based on partnerships and must bring happiness to all parties.
12.		Always be cheerful and positive; hold great dreams and hopes in the pureness of your heart.

 

I hope these will help you.

S and S

 

 

Two gentlemen wrote this book.  Mr.Sato and Mr.Shibata used to work for the same university as English teachers. Since then, their bond has been as hard as rocks. They're like brothers.

 

The well-known professors alternatively talk about books, music and their lives. These intelligent guys are really good at showing how they enjoy pop culture and lead us to the brand new world.   

 

 

 

 

Though they are enough smart, there's no affected way of talking. As if they were old friends of ours, the authors give us tips to live a happier life. So just sit back and be relaxed to see their show.    

 

 

                                                                    Don't think. Feel!
