Human, All Too Human(Friedrich Nietzsche)

 In order to support one lie, you have to come up with twenty more lies.

Lies are really like that.

Since one lie must give birth to another lie like a cancer cell to establish the lie, you have to keep lying to maintain the lie.

For example, when you overslept and were late, instead of simply saying sorry for overslept, you ended up lying about being sick or having a traffic jam.

Then, when asked where and how you were sick, you have to lie about the part that hurt, and when asked where you were blocked, you have to lie about the part that was blocked.

That is why I think that not lying is the best way.

Misconceptions of victims and perpetrators - When a rich person takes something from a poor person, the poor person is mistaken.

He thinks that the person must be really evil to take away the little he owns.

However, the rich do not feel the value of individual possessions that seriously.

Strangely enough, most rich people are known as bad people these days.

I think it's because they are usually portrayed as bad people in news, novels, dramas, and movies.

Of course, there may be bad rich people, but can we really say that in reality?

For example, from Jean Valjean's perspective, what if he stole bread because he was having a hard time making ends meet, but he was the owner of the bakery?

How many people would trust someone else's situation and give bread to someone else when their own property was taken away?

(Even if they did give it, it would be a problem. It is highly likely that other poor people will flock to it because of the rumor.)

Also, is there a world where everyone is equal?

I think that 'everyone can become rich equally'

This proposition is too idealistic and is like failed socialism.

I think that society and technology have developed because there is competition, and progress is made because there is inequality by trying to change.

That's why we don't need to complain about being poor right now, but we need to work hard, knock, and fight. (It is not the case that I simply work hard and think that I have lived hard. I think that I have tried new things, found what suits me, and tried to live my life worrying about how.)

No one knows who will be smiling later.

I just believe that the results will respond to those who have worked harder and suffered more.

Everyone is excellent at one thing

All people in the world can excel at something better than others.

There may be people who think that they are not better than others.

However, it is impossible to judge because that can be an advantage or a disadvantage depending on the era.

For example, in the past, when war was rampant, would a good person have survived?

They would have survived only if they were vicious, self-centered, and had physical strength as their priority.

However, in today's capitalist era, physical strength is weaker than knowledge and money.

In this way, strengths and weaknesses can change depending on the era, and I think that everyone is precious.

However, I think that is only true for those who realize themselves first and use their strengths and weaknesses well. People who exploit or harm others are problematic people throughout the ages.

The Power of Three-Quarters - A work that wants to give a healthy impression only needs to show at least three-quarters of the power of its creator.

On the other hand, if he exerts his power to the limit, the work excites the observer and makes the observer anxious with the tension of the work.

All great things have a little bit of leisure and lie down like a cow in the meadow.

When you put a lot of effort into anything, you make more mistakes and often fail.

That's why it seems that doing it with a little bit of leisure is more effective.

When I uploaded the early version of the novel 'Each Life 1', someone gave me the following advice.

'There is too much power in the writing. This can tire both the reader and the writer.'

After hearing the advice and rereading the writing, I also thought, 'Aren't you trying to show too much here?' Also, if you try to keep the excitement going, the story can go downhill, and if it continues to be too boring, you can lose interest in reading.

I think that ironically, if you try to be too perfect in anything, it doesn't become more perfect.

I think that everything works best when you slightly relax and apply appropriate force where necessary.

Sad Author and Serious Author - A person who puts his suffering on paper becomes a sad author

: However, if he talks about the suffering he suffered and why he is now resting in joy, he will become a serious author.

Like everyone, there are times when you suffer in some part of your life, and as it repeats, you grow.

When you look back, there are many times when it wasn't really a big deal.

Of course, there will be times when you are in a state of trauma where the suffering continues.

However, if you continue to carry the suffering as you go through life, I think that life will continue to become difficult.

I think that our life is about leaving the suffering alone and finding new joy.

If you continue to chew on the suffering and stay in the past, you will not be able to deal with the future that is constantly changing.

Also, if you don't change your thoughts to a positive state, you won't think of happiness as happiness even if it comes.

I think that your life is determined by your thoughts.

If you think someone else's life is happy, you don't know if that person is truly happy, and even if you think they are unhappy, that person may be truly happy.

And I think you should think deeply about what makes you truly happy.

What makes me happy and think I am happy?

What does that happiness bring me and give me strength?

Two new principles of life - First principle: You should set your life with the most certain and most provable goals.

: Do not set the most distant, the most uncertain, and the most cloudy on the horizon as your life goals, as you have done so far.

Second principle: Before setting your life and moving toward the ultimate direction, you should determine the order of the closest and closest, the certain and the less certain.

As I do, sometimes people tend to set goals that are too big.

Of course, big goals can have the effect of steadily sustaining your will, but on the contrary, you can set goals that weaken your willpower or are absurd or do not fit you.

For example, let's say you set a goal to become rich.

How will you become rich for sure?

Also, it does not go into detail about what criteria for being rich are being discussed.

You should set a goal that you can most definitely achieve.

My current goal is to be a good father and a good husband.

This is the most certain goal I can achieve and the big goal I can hold onto for the rest of my life.

It seems like my dad is doing well so far, but he seems to have a long way to go to be a good husband.

There is still a big problem that I have to work hard to increase my empathy with my wife.

I live to be a father who is not ashamed of his child, and I live to be a great husband to my wife.
