When starting something new, people often talk about books or individuals that have changed them. However, upon reflection, what truly changed me was when something toxic became an opportunity. It's difficult to recognize opportunities because they often come disguised as crises. Knowing something that can protect you, on the other hand, can help you have a long and fulfilling career. Many things can be preserved by having this protection. That's why I want to give you this question as a gift today: What are your values? What is your philosophy? Asking these questions can ruin a person. The question my brother asked yesterday was very relatable; a question that can destroy a person, even though it was meant as a joke. I have never tried it.

There are questions that, even though you worry about them, the more you worry, the less you find the answer, and there are questions that can ruin a person. I kept asking myself for advice endlessly, and the moment that destroyed me was about five years ago from now. When my wife and I were about to divorce, I asked, If we divorce, should I leave since we work together? At that time, I was told to think carefully about what I really wanted. Right, I should think about it. If I divorce now, I have to find my way for tomorrow. The more I ask that question, the more I realize that the answer doesn't come easily. So, I thought, What have I done well so far? What kind of person have I been living as? But the truth is, when you reach your mid-thirties, there are hardly any people in the world who are so good at something that they are truly outstanding. So, when you ask that question, you fall into a certain phenomenon.

I strongly come to the conclusion that I have nothing I am good at, nothing I can actually do, and face that reality. So, I realized that my wife was amazing. I made a decision like that, but through the experience, I learned that there are questions that should not be asked usually. So, at that time, I thought, Oh, one way to ruin someone could be through questions. I learned that through my experience. But why could a question be a tool that someone can destroy with? For example, asking, Who are you? What kind of person do you want to become? What contribution do you want to make to the world? If you ask these questions, you will hardly find answers because the answer to this question starts from the existing state. What I mean is, what do you want to do? Is this correct? How?

You have to develop questions like this. In a state where there is nothing, you can never find what you want to find, so the idea that you have to ask questions well came up at that time. Yeah, even if this doesn't bring me views, so you can include the process in detail. Friends often wander a lot about what your values are, what your direction is. This was given to the CEO of a company, and I gave this question to many thousands of friends. But you treat that question preciously. You will be able to keep yourself in the process of working. It's a question that you try to give, a question like, who is your hero? This is a difficult question, but it's definitely not difficult. Why suddenly a hero, a hero? How can you suddenly think of a hero like this? If you understand the principle behind this, you will realize at least once, Oh, my hero is.

Who do you think you will become? Asking who your hero is is asking what your roots are. Who is your hero? Who is your hero? My hero is the character I've seen since I was very young, like in cartoons or movies, someone who has been in my heart. In my case, I really liked Maria from The Sound of Music and Anne of Green Gables. Understanding why I liked them is knowing why I liked them. It means knowing the roots, knowing the basics. In ancient texts, roots are expressed as the roots of a tree. But the fact that they receive money has a certain meaning, and you should think about it at least once. Learning from others, learning from others, having a hero in your heart means having roots. In Buddhism, they use the expression attaining enlightenment, which means to resemble the Buddha.

People's directions and values are more varied than you think, and each person wants to convey where their roots are. For example, after watching a movie, some may say, Who was the best among all the main characters? or in One Piece, Who do you like the most? When you see Pikachu, someone might say, Oh, I really liked Jiwu. Jiwu appeared. Ah, you liked Jiwu in Pikachu. I liked the band of thieves, the band of thieves. I liked Ro. I didn't give up so that I wouldn't step on it. It's not that bad, not that bad, but when you were young, you liked it with the purest heart, and people tend to forget that. But you remember that. So, finding a person's roots is just like finding that. The areas of people with roots and those without roots are very different. Ultimately, in management, whether you have roots or not, it boils down to whether there is something to emulate.

Is there a role model or something to learn from? The question asking if that is in your heart is exactly what this is about. But people haven't seriously thought about this before. If you think about it a little more, when you say it in English, it's just a simple expression, a role model. Oh, that's used a lot. When you think about who you liked and what you liked about that person, if you extract common points, you can see the direction this person should move in and the path this person should follow. But this is also expressed neurologically. The brain, as I always emphasize, must always be connected for learning to take place. However, when you were young, memories of that hero were very much a context. Then, by connecting with this context,

Children are created that way, because the self is like that, so friends with many memories of heroes or friends who know a lot about heroes in detail, those children who have stories deeply ingrained in their hearts will live their lives centered around those heroes. But for children without that, if there are no stories about heroes or if they don't remember well like you, then they can only continue in that direction. It's a question about heroes. For example, when I think about it, I liked Maria from The Sound of Music since I was young. Anyone could like her at least once, right? But for me, I have liked her for 30 years, from when I was seven to 37 years old. Whenever I write or go somewhere, Maria from The Sound of Music is always there. Anyone would receive this question at least once, it's too easy.

Continuing to nurture that question is difficult, the reason for which even I am curious about. When I was young, why did I like this so much? So, I actually went to see the real filming location in Austria. Oh, the filming location of the movie The Sound of Music. When I actually went to Salzburg, Austria, I was really shocked. I thought I could just know it if I went there, but upon reflection, the reason I liked The Sound of Music was, firstly, because Maria sings at the beginning of the movie. She had been praising others for years and wanted to sing her own song, so that scene of her wandering around singing really appealed to me. Therefore, I realized that I wanted to be someone who expresses the sounds within me. And seeing it this way, it feels very lonely because when you go there, you should sing the Do-Re-Mi song, but there is no one next to you to sing along. So now I realize that back then, I was someone who wanted to sing in a choir, in the classroom.

I wanted to be a person who tells stories about life rather than teaching, and then there is that saying, Love, oh, you can't live without a husband, things like that. I went there to learn those things, and I felt that Maria showed me the way in moving forward as a teacher. She was truly the first role model who consistently carried the principle of sincerity. Secondly, as a writer, I came to have Hermann Hesse as a role model. But since I loved Hermann Hesse's books so much, I wanted to become like Hermann Hesse. I wanted to be a model like him. I read all of Hermann Hesse's works from the first to the last, just as I wanted to receive that model. Just like IU's singing style changes as she gets older, in Hermann Hesse's works, my writing reflects what is brewing inside me, adjusting to my versions 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 as I age.

I want to talk about this. I learned this through Herman Nesse, and planning is learned through Master Moon's semester. By going to Japan and getting it, I wondered how Master Moon's semester was planned. The planning I learned from Master Moon's semester is a time capsule. If you follow the development of planning from the initial planning of a person to this level of development, and follow the development process, seeing that they grew up with these people until the work they started at the age of 30 becomes a premium age of 60, you also want to become a planner like this. Through studying continuously, Inamori, who is bringing people together through meals and drinks, is creating culture like this. To me, there is a role model in my heart, but do you have that? It's about cultivating a patient love for something, creating the roots of money. So, when I was young, my mother always talked about creating roots.

You've told us not to touch it, we've heard that a lot between us. So, for a tree to grow, it needs to deeply root in one soil. When the pot becomes too small, or when this land is no longer the right size for me, that's when repotting is done. It's not about wanting the tree to grow quickly, planting it here and there, damaging the roots. This way, it can't grow bigger. But the education we are receiving now, and even the content, are all too superficial. So, before cultivating the feeling of liking someone, or before cultivating what we can learn from, we keep damaging our roots by constantly switching between this and that, without knowing what we are doing. It seems like our friends are unaware of this. Having a liking for one thing for a long time, it becomes a context in my mind continuously.

When you look at the world, it's about connecting with that, humans are all lacking, and among the people here, how many have truly realized themselves? So, you need to go through someone, but in order to do that, you need to clearly know who the role model is that you will root in your heart. And if you change that person for at least 10 or 20 years, you will eventually stand on top of that person. You can hold hands with that person and learn, or you can see what you saw with two eyes with a hundred eyes. But you need to understand this part. When you really delve into why you liked that, a single keyword will come out. Many people ask, What books have you read? or How did you do back then? These kinds of questions. You have to be very careful when reading books because when you read a book or meet someone, then

Suddenly, it became the C direction, so there was a time when I stopped reading books. Every time I read a book, it's confusing. So, it's better to study in one direction for a certain period of time to establish roots than you think. I once read Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha all at once, then read Demian all at once, and while reading Steppenwolf all at once, I thought, There is nothing else in the world. Oh, there is nothing else in the world for me. If you think like that and go, the next step becomes easier to be creative. Because when seeds are planted, they need soil to grow, right? It's the same with ideas. If you want to do this next time, you need to bring who Hiraga is and then you can proceed with the work. Without Hiraga, there is no such person. There is absolutely no hero in the world. That's ridiculous. When I was young, among comics and movies.

Just by writing down the characters I liked, all heroes come out. But think about why you liked that person. There is something in common. Earlier, I said I like Team Rocket or Zoro. It would be nice to try to like what they liked. Actually, in my opinion, Gio is the worst guy. Pikachu, use Thunderbolt, go to the Electric Shock, and fight. They said they always work hard. But Zoro also becomes so cool through relentless training. So, looking back, I can find a common point in what I like, which is constantly overcoming my limits without stopping. I thought about it a bit. It may sound a bit sudden, but when I was young, I liked Three Kingdoms, and I watched it. So, Liu Bei, what was it, Liu Bang, they are similar, right? Liu Bei, Liu Bang, and their friends.

I think what I wanted to continue doing was because of Do Won Gyeol. Oh, but that's right, right, right. You, you're right. Oh, he always wanted to do things with his friends, but in Doan Gyeol, he wanted to protect that and stuff like that. You're precise. But when I discovered that, I could grow from then on. I'm not really a great person, and I'm still the same now, but what I did well was liking Maria Seonsaengnim among my friends. That's a talent, right? That's right. It seems like he's living well with that. Oh, right, finding a crew to work with. At that time, it was Do Won Gyeol, and I was looking for a crew. So far, I've been hanging out with Anne with Red Hair and talking about Maria. She liked the character when she was young. You were surprised, right? I watched Anne with Red Hair. Whenever I was having a hard time, I bathed with Red Hair.

I'm still watching it. But living with Anne is like... Oh, my goodness, I'm just like that red-haired Anne, really. That's the funny thing. She's also a teacher by profession. Later on, what happens is, so, you keep remembering that story for a long time. So, in fact, what creates a human being is... what the brain has already revealed, is that it's the story that creates a human being. So, if you don't know the hero now, you look for that hero, and then you tell yourself to watch it again. Then, there are things you see, and you think, Oh, I liked this about it. So, you try to memorize it accurately, and you try to imitate it more like that, and that's how you end up protecting yourself. It's the root of it. The answer is not in other people. What you like, what you thought of as a hero at that point, that point keeps protecting you. Now, it's your turn.

It's a street. I'm going to live thinking about that street all my life. Then, this must be seen when you're young, that's the point. Personally, as an educated person, I think what captures you when you are young is the most truthful and pure. But, as I mentioned earlier, I liked The Sound of Music, but what I liked next was Harry. After that, it was Matilda, then Anne of Green Gables. Look closely. I am living just like those people say. People are quite surprised. Our colleagues are reading this book, our school representative, they read so much of that book. And I tried to do that too. So, when you find that when you are young, you can connect similar things to it, and later, when you connect them, you can understand about yourself.

You need to know the commonality of that. Yes, it will be fun if the theme of your life comes out. I'll come back until next time. Watch Pokémon again. That's right, you might not remember because it could be a bit of a special situation like me, but you can still think about it.
