Story
■あらゆる問題は、「仕分け」するだけで9割解決できる 「やるべきことが多すぎて、何から手をつけたらいいのかがわからない」 「選択肢を絞れなくて、何を残して、何を捨てればいいのか迷う」 「つい考えすぎてしまって、なかなか行動に移せない」 「一生懸命やっているのに、結果につながらない……」 「アイデアが煮詰まってしまって、出てこない」 こうなってしまうと、 正しい判断ができなかったり、 行動することができないものです。 これらの悩みには、 1つの共通点があります。 それは、「頭の中がごちゃごちゃ」です。 頭の中がごちゃごちゃで整理されていないから、 このような悩みが湧き出るわけです。 問題をいかにシンプルにして、 正しい決断や行動につなげていけばいいのか?

Story
これは2年ほど前のことだ。ぼくが飛行機の窓から外を撮った写真をツイートしたら、「これって滑走路を走行中に撮った写真じゃないですか? だったらアウトですよね?」というリプライが来た。もちろん、それは停止中に撮った写真で、当時の航空会社のルールに違反していたわけではないのだが(今は走行中でもセーフになった)、そのときに強烈に感じたのが、「多くの人々はぼくがルール違反を犯すことを潜在的、無意識的に望んでいる」ということだった。 多くの人にとって、ぼくはどうでもいい人間だ。そういう人間がルール違反に手を染めることほど、愉快なことはない。そのために、多くの人が潜在的、無意識的に、ぼくがルール違反を犯すことを望んでいるというわけである。(本文より)岩崎夏海の「ハックルベリーに会いに行く」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/huckleberry.html

Story
旅に出た桃太郎は、その端緒で犬と出会う。面白いのが、この桃太郎と犬との関係である。この両者の関係もまた、主体性と他動性の絶妙なハイブリッドとなっているのだ。 それを、童謡「桃太郎」の歌詞から見てみたい。 桃太郎さん 桃太郎さん お腰につけた きびだんご 一つわたしに 下さいな やりましょう やりましょう これから鬼の 征伐に ついて行くなら やりましょう これを見ると、最初に行動を起こしたのは「犬」であることが分かる。彼は食べ物に飢えていた。あるいはきびだんごが食べたかった。そうした欠落状態にある能力者が、何らかの行動を起こした。桃太郎は、その機先をとらえるのである。その行動に乗じて、こちらからのオファーを出すのだ。 この間合いが、すぐれた武道家のように見事である。 武道には「先の先」と「後の先」という考え方がある。「先の先」とは、相手の動作を始めようとする心を読み取り、その直前に行動すること。後の先は、相手の行動を誘発して、その隙に打ち込むことである。(本文より) 岩崎夏海の「ハックルベリーに会いに行く」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/huckleberry.html

Story
堀江貴文さんつくった「755」というトークアプリで堀江貴文さんと対談した。 この対談で思ったことは、「やっぱり多くの日本人(特に若者)が、問題の本質を認識していないのではないか?」という疑いだった。この疑いはかねてから抱いていたが、それが強化された形だ。 堀江さんには若者のファンが多いが、ぼくははっきりいって彼らのほとんどが堀江さんを誤解していると思う。どう誤解しているかというと、「堀江さんが新しい道を切り拓いて実力主義の社会を作ることで、今、老害世代に虐げられている自分たちにもチャンスが巡ってくるのではないか」というふうにだ。(本文より) 岩崎夏海の「ハックルベリーに会いに行く」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/huckleberry.html

同窓会というのは楽しいですね。昔の友人たちが今はどういう人生を送っているのか、互いに紹介し合うだけであっという間に2時間くらいは過ぎてしまうものです。でも、紹介しあううちにきっとこんな感想を抱いた人もいるのではないでしょうか。 「あれ、なんだかみんな自分より全然成功してるし、人生すごく充実してそうだな……」 苦労している人に「貧困国ではもっと苦しんでる人がいっぱいいるんだから頑張れ!」的なアドバイスが糞の役にも立たないように、人間はしょせん周囲の人間との距離感で相対的に価値判断して泣いたり笑ったりしている生き物です。なので、旧知の友人とはいえ単純にその成功を喜べないのは当然のこと。 というわけで、今回は、そういった時にどういう風に現実に向き合うべきかについてまとめておきましょう。(本文より) 城繁幸の『サラリーマン・キャリアナビ』★出世と喧嘩の正しい作法はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/joe.html

Story
茂木健一郎氏の魂の叫びが大きな反響を読んでいます。 <っていうか、偏差値とか勝手に計算しやがっている、予備校って、社会に害悪しかもたらさない存在だから、マジでつぶそうぜ。ふざけやがって。お前らが勝手に計算している「偏差値」とかやらで、どれだけ多くの18歳が傷ついていると思っているんだ、このクソ野郎どもが。>(茂木健一郎氏のツイートより) 筆者も基本的に氏の主張に同意します。これからの日本は間違いなく脱偏差値教育の方向に舵を切るべきだし、偏差値の重力を振り切った人達が引っ張っていくことでしょう。 とはいえ、筆者は全ての人が偏差値の重力を振り切って活躍できるわけではないとも考えています。そして、それはそのまま、社会人になってからのキャリア開発にも通じる話です。 自分は偏差値なんてなくても活躍できる人材かどうか。そして、これからの日本社会で活躍できる人材になるには何をすればいいのか。(本文より) 城繁幸の『サラリーマン・キャリアナビ』★出世と喧嘩の正しい作法はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/joe.html

Story
騙される人、つまり詐欺にあったりマインドコントロールされたりする人というのは、純粋で素直な人――という場合はほとんどない。その逆に、疑り深く、小心で、捻くれている人ほど、実はよく騙される。 なぜかというと、疑り深い人には一つの大きな「落とし穴」があるからだ。それは、「疑り深い自分自身を疑わない」ということである。 疑り深い人は、「自分は疑り深い性格だから騙されない」という妙な自信を持っている。あるいは「疑り深いのはいいことだ」と、疑り深いことそのものに強い肯定の気持ちを抱いている。 実はそれこそが、詐欺師やマインドコントローラーにとって「つけいる隙」となっているのだ。 疑り深い人に信用されるのは簡単だ。一言、こんなふうに言えばいいのである。 「あなたは『用心深い人』ですね」 こう言われると、疑り深い人は鼻息を「ムフー!」と荒くして喜んでしまう。そして、疑り深い自分に対する信頼をますます強める。 (本文より) 岩崎夏海の「ハックルベリーに会いに行く」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/huckleberry.html

先日、六本木で起きた傷害致死事件の被告に対し、懲役22年が求刑されて話題となりました。男は関東連合の幹部で、海老蔵暴行事件でも名前の出た石元被告です。殺人ではなく傷害致死、それも直接参加はしていない連絡係という役回りにも関わらず22年という求刑からは、検察の関東連合潰しへの強い執念を感じます。彼ら関東連合とは何者なのでしょうか? また、従来のヤクザ組織と何がどう違うのでしょうか? ちょうどそうしたつながりがよく分かる優れた書籍が2冊ほど世に出ました。経済・雇用関連を除く一般書籍の中では、個人的に一番のヒットだったように思います。単純に読み物として面白いのにくわえ、この二冊を続けて読むと「アウトローのキャリアデザイン」まで理解できるという優れモノです。(本文より) 城繁幸の『サラリーマン・キャリアナビ』★出世と喧嘩の正しい作法はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/joe.html

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Story
There is no bigger public health story now than the collapse in youth mental health. The numbers are terrifying and dominate our headlines. There has been much debate over how we got here, and what to do next, and bestselling author and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt is at the white-hot center of that discourse. Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth into the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for Gen Z.

Story
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Story
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.
