[Reflection] The reality of the first week of entrepreneurship. Government procedures, the full-scale launch of WAY, and a new world that has opened up [Weekly yasu April 12th Issue]

Hello, this is yasu.

Thank you all for your hard work this past week.

Highlights of the week

It has been one week since I retired from teaching and officially launched "WAY," which I started with my wife.

I am delivering a reflection on these seven days, which were so frantic that I didn't have a single second to spare, yet filled with a sense of tangible progress.

1. From "individual" to "team." The face of WAY is now set

This week, following my note, I completely revamped my CrowdWorks profile and portfolio.
Until now, I was posting as "yasu the individual," but from now on, I will be operating under the banner of "WAY," which I walk with my wife.

"We listen carefully, we convey." The process of incorporating this philosophy into our profile became a precious time to reaffirm how we want to live our lives from here on out.

2. My first electronic application. Overcoming the "administrative wall" with AI

A realistic challenge that comes with starting a business is the procedure for National Health Insurance.
At the counter, I was told to "go to the main office or do it by mail," but here too, AI became a reliable partner.

As a result of researching while brainstorming with AI, I found out that I could apply electronically.
I dug up a password I thought I might never use again and managed to complete the application.
Furthermore, I also applied for an exemption based on my current situation at the same time.
I was confused because everything was new, but the feeling of building up a "shield" one by one with AI was exactly the practice of the "AI Life Design Technique" that I am promoting.

3. My second consultation project and expanding intellectual curiosity

Even in such busy days, I am grateful to have received my second consultation project.
The time I spend listening to people's stories is the greatest learning and vitality for me as well.

Also, there was a change in the form of my input this week.
A new addition of "Podcasts" has been added to my life, which was previously centered on YouTube.
I started listening to them on the native iPhone app as recommended by AI, and because there are no visuals, I felt the words soaking in more deeply, and my world expanded all at once.

Furthermore, there is a book called "Gesshu" (Monthly Income) that I am listening to on Audible.
I am once again keenly aware of the importance of reading due to the new perspectives that shake up the values I have held regarding money until now.

Reflecting on this week

There are still mountains of challenges, such as acquiring projects on CrowdWorks.
But, I am working hard, learning, and feeling grateful for new encounters.
This "process of organizing" itself is an irreplaceable treasure for me right now.

One step at a time, but surely.
I intend to continue walking "carefully" like WAY next week as well.

Articles delivered this week

This week, in line with the full-scale launch of "WAY," we delivered two articles about our origins and the "defensive" mechanisms that support our activities.

The day my 33 years of teaching experience turned into an 'asset'

Through my first interview, I became convinced that the experience I have cultivated over many years has the power to lighten someone's heart.
'Worrying is proof that you are living sincerely.'
This is an article like a letter that I would like everyone who is feeling a little tired from their new life to read.

Self-defense techniques for the first year of freelancing

To continue having 'warm dialogues,' you need an 'impenetrable shield' to protect yourself.
I have published practical methods for building contracts and back-office operations in just one day using AI.
Efficiency exists to create 'mental space' for the people who are important to you.
I have written about that sentiment.

Next week's preview

Well, next week's note will be delivered with the theme of "Easing anxiety about human relationships and communication".

Two weeks have passed since the new life began.
Isn't this the time when "fatigue from human relationships" and "anxiety about interactions" start to appear little by little?

• April 14th (Tue)
  Emails to first-time clients or superiors.
  I will release a prompt that turns AI into a "capable secretary," reducing the time you spend worrying about whether you are being rude to zero.
  

• April 16th (Thu)
  What lies beyond efficiency.
  Because we are in the AI era, I will talk about the value of "a little analog consideration" that reaches the other person's heart deeply.

Mastering new tools while not forgetting human warmth.
Let's explore the WAY-style "comfortable communication techniques" together.
