what i am thinking

変動期です。

なんか将来とかやりたいことを考えていくと、教師になりたいってゆー思いが再発してきた。

けど、教師は卒業後にすぐじゃなくてもできると考えるともったいないかなぁ。

しかし資格をとるのは今でも早くはないし、遅くもないなぁ・・・なんて。

いまある選択肢はさまざま。

けど、そのなかで目的がともなっている選択肢は就活。

留学も起業もしたい。

でも、したいだけ。

したうえで、獲得したいものとか、実現したいものがいまのところない。

それを見つけるための就職。

社会を知るための就職。

どうなんだろ。これまた手段になっちゃってる気もするけど。

で、就職したらそのままずるずるいっちゃわないか不安。

実現したいものがみつかったところで、捨てる勇気とそのための準備ができなければ意味ないしなぁ。

ふむ。難しいぞ。

でも何はともあれ、今できることは、今を一生懸命やること。

それだけ。

加油!!オレ

ちょっと停滞してるので。。。

英語やめます。

あまりに時間がかかるし、書き始めるまでの心の準備がいりすぎて・・・ｗ

ということで、すいませんが。

昨日まで台湾にいってリフレッシュしてきたので、ちょっとこっからは就活やらなんやらいろりろ頑張ろうと！！

ここんとこ読んだ本たち

新装版 竜馬がゆく (1) (文春文庫)

はじめて部下を持ったら読む! 営業マネジャーの教科書

「質問力」で勝つ! (新講社ワイド新書)

[rakuten:book:12092589:detail]

やっぱり自己啓発的なものが多いなか、ついに時代小説にも手をだしてみました。

てゆーのもこないだのＩＣＳの人に言われたから！

あんま歴史って好きじゃないんだけど、知らずにキライなんていえないですもんねー。

読んでみたら意外とおもしろくってまだ１巻だけで先は長いけど・・・。

しかし平太郎を真似て始めた「積ん読」の量がはんぱなくなってきたなぁｗ

バイザウェイ

読書したやつってどうやったら頭に残るんでしょう？
なんか消えていってるようでもったいないからイイアイデアないですかいね。

おせーてください。

再考

I think now is really turning point of my life.

i think it's not enough time to think about my job, since we most Japanese students begin to think about their lives from September or so and have to choose one company to work till April.

Well i should have thought about my life earlier, but it's no use crying over split milk...

about a week ago, i had a meeting with Kawada san (a coordinator of ICS) , and i noticed that how i don't think about my life.

i talked to him that i want to begin my own business, and before beginning i want to go to ICS, and before going to ICS i want to go abroad(the U.S.) and study about entrepreneurship education.

when i talked this kind of story to other people, they always say that "Oh, u really think about ur life, and u should do so!".

BUT!! he was not so.

he said "is there anyone who start their business after studying about entrepreneur?? they must have had a great passion."

and talked a lot, most of time was used for me to think and answer to his question...

and i noticed that "i can't reach the goal just following the measures. First of all i need to make my goal clearly. And i can make measures for options, but the measures are not necessarily things i have to follow, just as options."

i have to make goals for each things i'm doing.

人生ぷらん

I'm now thinking about what i will do next year.

though i will do job-hunting this year, i really want to go and study abroad.

and first of all i decided to go counseling of studying abroad and the counselor is the writer of the book i introduced the latest entry.

http://www.ryugaku.com/

i dont know how long i will go abroad, but maybe that will be 6 months, because the school in the u.s. will begin at Sep. and i want to graduate Hitotsubashi Uni in 2012.

and i also joined in a new circle, whose name is "inspire".

this circle is consisted of only Hitotsubashi students and the number of the members is 8.

the purpose of this circle is to incubate or inspire the students of Hitotsubashi.

what we do is to hold seminars and parties.

this is the url of the blog of the circle.

http://ameblo.jp/inspire-hit/

the reason why i joined it,
1. i can manage a great deal of the resources(human, money, things, information), which is not available for only one person.

2. i can meet a lot of managers and know how they live their lives.

3. being surrounded by friends whose motivations are really high.

4. i can study and learn a lot of things.

so i will do my best to reach the goal.

留学で人生を棒に振る日本人

留学で人生を棒に振る日本人―“英語コンプレックス”が生み出す悲劇 (扶桑社新書)

Japanese people waste their life by studying abroad

in the us, there are 4000 colleges and universities and 5 types of them.

• liberal arts college, private university, state universitiy, state college, community college-

and the author recommends liberal arts colleges to us(the Japanese)
liberal-arts-colleges are found to bring up the leader of society, and the purpose of the education is to acquire extensive knowledes rather than special or technical knowledges.
so people there can acquire culture by learning all what they are interested in.
and most of the colleges are small-schale and located in the country, so they have dormitories and live with other students.
so students int the liberal-arts-colleges can find what they want to do by taking a variety of lessons, learn the diffculty of human lerations and meet friends who can get along with in future.
and first of all, do most students aged 18 or so have a clear vision of wht they want to do in future??
and also there are 3 advantages of liberal-arts colleges for the Japanese who study abroad.
1. they can live with their roommates who are American int he dorm.
2. security guards are always in the campus and there are nurse's office.
3. the lessons are small-scale and elitism, so students can follow with the eager aproach by teachers.

to improve one's ability in English, the most effective way is to be in the situation that one must do something by using English or one can't do anything.
but in Japan, the points of English Education are learning English, not learning something in English.
in the case of studying abroad, the ability of English and other academics will improve when they learn not English but in English.
first of all, language is not something to learn but a tool.
a tool will be a weapon to survive by being polished.
people who can speak English will be helpful if they have any ability, but they are not helpful if they have only the ability of English.

スタンフォード日記１

First week

day 1
When we arrived at the San Francisco International airport, we met the host students from Stanforod.
we were surprised at the passion of them. they claimed out "hooo!! Welcome!!"

day 2
Since i had to build up my physical strength for the game of futsal in September, i woke up at 7 and went running.
Stanford university is so loud that buses go around, and it takes more than 30 minutes for one round.
And the air is so clear and many people run around, so it was really nice for running!
We had test and meeting with teachers.
at night we had Bon-Fire(camp-fire). we ate marshmallow and did WAVE.

day 3
i was assigned to section6 according to the result of listening test and the meeting with teacher.
i think i'm lucky because boys seem to be funny and girls are cute!!
at that time i didn't know that section6 was the most high-leveled and we would have so much homework...
Host students showed us the university, it has two main libraries, one tower, lots of grass spaces, and a big book store.

day 4
after English class, we had a chance to hear the presentation of hoststudents.
i was surprised at the quality of it!! he was really good at attracting people's attention!
what is imporatant about presentation is not the quality of powerpoint, but practicing and behavior.

day 5
in order to get accustomed to American culture, i bought skateboard with my two friends. it is really nice (but not for trick...)
and after that we ate Sushi!! the miso soup was unbelieavably nice!!
though it often occurs that i don't eat sushi or miso soup for a week, but it was the best miso soup in my life.

day 6
the first presentation day. it was about "introducing my friend".
i think it was terrible, cuz i often bounced a lot, speak too fast and very few eye-contact.
and also it was the deadline day of first proposal for my final paper. it was also bad, cuz it was not concrete at all.
i learned how to create a hypothesis there.

day 7
SF tour with host group.
SF MoMA, Starbucks, Union Square, Fishermans' Wharf, Ghirardelli Chocolate and so on.
we couldn't go to the goldengate bridge. I took a lot of picture.
the impression of SF was there are so many steep slopes that it would be fun if i brought skateboard!!
and the pizza shop which we entered at random was pretty good.
when we go back to stanford, we had to wait for an hour because the train had gone while some people was in the rest room.
so i went to the bookshop and bought "one piece" of English version.

なまけもののあなたがうまくいく５７の法則

57Advices for lazy people

なまけもののあなたがうまくいく57の法則

there are 57 advice for such person.
and i will introduce some advices which impressed me.

do in the order of what you come up with
for a lazy person, the priority order comes to be burden and put you stress if you can't do it in the priority order.
and doing in the order of what you come up with, you can do it unconsciously, though the total things you do today won't change.
of course in a case of a long period, it's important to make some priorities, but for our daily lives, priority will comes to be a kind of one's assignment and it makes you frustlating.

focus on the first 10 days (don't make an effort on continuing)
doing something for 10days successively, i can see the effect of it after 10days.
and if you continue for 10days, it will become a kind of habit.
and hobit doesn't make you frustrating.
so make an effort on making it hobit not on continuing.

involve others
to do something which needs continuing, compulsion power from outside is important.
the most effective compulsion power from outside is the eyes of others!!
being with others, you won't come to compromise yourselves and also you can feel happy and share the experience with others.

write the results on my schedule-diary
you should buy two diaries, one is for your schedule and the other is for writing the results of your day.
output is the very effctive way for a person to remind or remember what you did.
by writing the results, you can see the effect of something and see how you are lazy.
