Rather than being 'capable,' it's the 'person people want to ask' who gets chosen—The power of 'charm' taught by May 17th

Getters Iida has compiled
words that make life a little more positive for each of the 365 days of the year
words that make life a little more positive into a single book titled

It is a book that reminds us with gentle words of
important things we tend to forget in our daily lives.

In my own daily life, I want to gain new insights , so I use this book to
share thoughts daily .
At the start of the day , I hope it becomes a time when your heart feels a little lighter .

This time, I have summarized my thoughts on May 17th: “Rather than what kind of work you can do, it is better to become someone who is easy to ask and someone who is sought after.”

■ People are not chosen based on 'ability' alone

What was impressive about this message was the idea that
rather than “what you can do,”
it is important to be someone people think, “I want to ask this person.”

Of course, work ability and knowledge are important.
But in reality, if the skill level is the same,
・Someone who is easy to talk to ・Someone who smiles ・Someone who is pleasant ・Someone who can act honestly

work often gathers around
“people who are easy to ask.”

Getters Iida conveys the importance of
especially the chores entrusted to you when you are young , not as “troublesome work,” but

“proof that you are being relied upon”
as something to accept as .

■ There is learning that leads to the future in chores

There are many tasks when you are young that are plain and inconspicuous.
・Making copies ・Cleaning up ・Preparing ・Checking details

Whether you think “Why is it always me?” or
“I can learn the basics here”

,
your subsequent growth may change significantly .

In fact, the more people are trusted by those around them, the less they treat small things carelessly.

Someone who can accept what is asked of them without looking annoyed and with a smile is,
just by that, thought of as “I want to ask them again.”

I thought that the accumulation of that
eventually leads to big jobs and opportunities.

■ “Charm” becomes a power to shorten the distance between people

What I felt many times with this theme was the importance of “charm.”

Charm might feel like a special talent. But in reality, it is about small, consistent actions like

• Greeting with a smile• Expressing gratitude in words
• Listening to others with an open mind
• Not making others feel uncomfortable
—I believe it is the accumulation of such small things.

People are not always put at ease by a 'great person.'
Rather, they naturally open their hearts to someone they feel
'I feel at ease when I am with this person'
can be said.

That is why I felt that
'what kind of work you can do' is not the only thing that matters;
'what kind of atmosphere you have' is also
very important.

■ Things to be slightly more conscious of today

If someone asks you for work or a favor today, before thinking 'this is a hassle,' try thinking for a moment,

'maybe they relied on me'.

Also, just by being conscious of things like
• Responding with a smile
• Adding a 'thank you'
• Doing small favors carefully
, I feel the atmosphere between you and others will change.

■ To become a person others 'want to ask again'

The message of May 17th is not about 'don't polish your skills,' but rather, I thought it was a message saying,

'let's become a person chosen by others'.

Work and human relationships are ultimately about 'person to person.'

That is why 'invisible powers' like smiles, charm, and personality might
greatly move your life.

May today be a warm day for you, where people think,
'I want to see them again' or 'I want to ask them again'.
