なぜ人は一流という言葉に弱いのか

ビジネス日本語講座 ·

2026/10/07

Why are people so attracted to the idea of being “first-class”? We hear the phrase everywhere: first-class universities, companies, hotels, restaurants, and even first-class people. But who actually decides what “first-class” means? In this episode, I examine how the label creates authority without clear standards, how prestigious institutions can make individuals appear more valuable, and why such language is so persuasive. I also explore the danger of ranking human beings with a single scale

「稼ぐ方法」を売る人は、なぜ自己啓発屋になっていくのか

Why does advice about making money so often turn into self-help? At first, online business experts may teach practical skills: how to create products, use social media, write better copy, or build a sales funnel. But when customers fail to achieve the promised results, the explanation often shifts from the method to the person. Suddenly, the problem is your mindset, commitment, discipline, or environment. In this episode, I explore why businesses that sell “ways to make money” naturally drift toward

Why are so many influencers obsessed with “living smarter”? They teach us how to quit our jobs, reduce expenses, invest efficiently, avoid bad relationships, and optimize every part of life. But behind these strategies lies a deeper idea: life can be hacked like a game. In this episode, I examine the rise of “smart living” influencers, the hidden role of luck and personal circumstances, and how social problems are increasingly turned into individual optimization problems. Perhaps life is not

法人営業は盛り上げ役も求められる

Corporate sales is not always just about selling products or solving customers’ problems. Sometimes salespeople are also expected to entertain clients, create a lively atmosphere, and represent the personality of the company itself. In this episode, I recall an experience in Ho Chi Minh City when my company president told me to stop sitting quietly and join people dancing at a karaoke bar. It made me realize that corporate sales can require much more than sales techniques and product knowledge. You

オフラインの営業は今後もやるつもりはない

Every business needs sales, but not everyone needs to sell in the same way. In this episode, I explain why I have no intention of relying on offline networking events, business gatherings, or the constant maintenance of professional relationships. For some people, meeting new contacts, attending social events, and building relationships face-to-face comes naturally. For me, creating content and building trust gradually through the internet is a much better fit. Online marketing is certainly not

仕事だと思って取り組むのは優等生的考え方

ビジネス日本語講座 ·

2026/10/02

Should we simply treat work as work and separate it from what we truly enjoy? At first, this may sound like the mature and rational approach. We all need money, and not everyone can earn a living doing what they love. But being too good at tolerating work we dislike may create another problem: we can spend years following a path that never really belonged to us. Working for a company can teach us discipline, social skills, and how to create value for others. Yet adapting too much can gradually erase

愚痴は社会化しないと鬱陶しがられる

2026/10/01

Everyone complains sometimes. We complain about difficult bosses, annoying coworkers, health problems, relationships, and the frustrations of everyday life. But listening to someone complain for hours can be exhausting. In this episode, I introduce the idea of “socializing” our complaints: transforming a private frustration into something that other people can recognize in their own lives. A personal complaint can become a broader observation about work, relationships, or society. Literature, films,

久しぶりにカフェでノマドワークしてみた

2026/09/30

Yesterday, I worked outside my home for the first time in quite a while. I drove to a shopping mall about ten kilometers away and spent several hours working in a small café. The change of environment was refreshing, and the background noise of people talking was surprisingly easy to ignore. At the same time, I rediscovered the limitations of café work: recording audio is difficult, sitting for hours becomes uncomfortable, and food and drinks can quickly become expensive. For me, working from home

自分に厳しく、他人に甘く

ビジネス日本語講座 ·

2026/09/29

What does it really mean to be strict with yourself but generous with others? In this episode, I reflect on different types of managers I encountered during my career. Some highly capable people expect everyone around them to meet the same standards they set for themselves. Others work extremely hard but give their employees surprising freedom. I share the story of an exceptional sales manager who sometimes let his team sleep, relax, and work only a few hours—yet consistently delivered results

奢り方には、人間性が出る

Paying for someone else’s meal may seem like a small gesture, but it can reveal a surprising amount about a person. In this episode, I reflect on my experiences of being treated to meals and drinks while working in Thailand and Vietnam. Some people paid reluctantly or immediately expected something in return, while others simply paid for everyone without making a fuss. What impressed me was not the amount of money, but the grace and generosity of the gesture. Being treated also requires good manners

好きなことを仕事にするべきか

2026/09/27

Should you turn what you love into your work? In this episode, I explore why our interests and preferences should matter when choosing a career. Following your passion does not guarantee success, and financial stability cannot simply be ignored. But choosing a job only because it seems safe may eventually leave you wondering what you actually wanted to do. Sometimes it is better to seriously pursue something, fail, and discover that it was not right for you than never try at all. A career is not

鈍感力より、雑になる勇気。

2026/09/26

Can we really train ourselves to stop caring about what other people say and do? In this episode, I question the popular idea of developing a thicker skin. Perhaps sensitivity is not something we can simply switch off. Instead of trying to become less sensitive, I suggest another approach: becoming a little less demanding of ourselves. Modern culture often celebrates careful routines, tidy homes, healthy habits, and “mindful” living. There is nothing wrong with any of that, but constant

Perhaps many people secretly want to withdraw from society more than they are willing to admit. In this episode, I reflect on my own tendency to stay home, avoid unnecessary social interaction, and struggle with conventional institutions. I talk about leaving high school, later going to university, and eventually discovering that corporate life was especially difficult for me—not because I disliked working, but because constant workplace relationships exhausted me. Being able to adapt to a company

営業マンが売りたい時と、お客さんが買いたい時は違う

Customers have their own timing when it comes to buying. In this episode, I reflect on my years of experience in sales and a difficult truth every salesperson faces: sometimes you can explain everything clearly, answer every question, build trust, and still fail to close the deal. The reason may be surprisingly simple—the customer simply does not need the product right now. Salespeople have targets, commissions, and pressure to sell, but customers have their own circumstances. Sometimes the best

Years ago in Bangkok, a recruitment agent impressed me by instantly recognizing a pattern in my job search. When I said, “You know the industry well,” he replied, “It’s an occupational hazard.” For some reason, that phrase stayed with me. In this episode, I explore why it felt slightly performative: a form of modesty that quietly advertises professional expertise. I also consider how our image of competence is changing. In the age of AI, being able to memorize everything and answer instantly may

近道を売る人ほど、近道していない

Why do people who sell shortcuts rarely take shortcuts themselves? In this episode, I explore a strange contradiction in the online business world. Many successful marketers promise faster results, proven methods, and ways to avoid unnecessary mistakes. Yet they often spent years creating content, testing ideas, failing, improving, and building an audience. Good advice can certainly reduce wasted effort, but efficiency is not the same as eliminating practice. Perhaps the real lesson is not the

焼畑ビジネスで気を付けなければならないポイント

How can you tell whether a business opportunity is already burning out? In this episode, I examine “slash-and-burn” business models, especially those built around teaching people how to make money online. The early entrants may succeed, but problems arise when students become sellers of the same methods and the market depends on a constant supply of newcomers. I discuss several useful questions: Who is the final consumer? Does the product have value without being resold? How many people actually

2026/09/20

What if the self-help industry has its own supply chain? In this episode, I look at self-help through the lens of manufacturing. Ideas such as mindset, personal branding, resilience, and journaling are imported, translated, adapted, shaped into familiar formulas, mass-produced as social media posts, and distributed to consumers. Some creators act like trading companies, others like mold makers, factories, wholesalers, or retailers. This does not mean self-help is worthless. The more interesting

Why are modern people so obsessed with optimization? In this episode, I explore the possibility that optimization helps us cope with uncertainty. Life has no clear roadmap, but goals, numbers, routines, and success formulas can make it feel like a game with rules. We want success to have a reason and failure to have an explanation because randomness is uncomfortable. Yet effort does not always produce results, and success may depend partly on timing, circumstances, and luck. Perhaps we do not need

自己啓発屋の思想はなぜテフロン加工されているのか

Why does self-help thinking sometimes seem Teflon-coated? In this episode, I explore how certain ideas appear designed to repel criticism, failure, social problems, and even self-doubt. When reality challenges the message that “everything depends on you,” another positive slogan can simply provide a fresh coating. I contrast this with a “wok-style” philosophy: scratched, burned, blackened, and shaped by direct contact with reality. Perhaps good thinking should allow failure, contradiction, other
