The 'want' is from one's own perspective. What is the origin of care work that realizes what you want without being pushy?

Hello!
This is Hayashida.

What's with the sudden consecutive posts?!

You might say that, but it happens sometimes.

Times when you want to put your thoughts into words.

Exactly.

To speak of the title, I am writing this because I wanted to put it into words myself.

Rare! Already addressing the title?!

Well then, is this an article that the readers really want to read?

That is...

I don't know, haha.

After all, it's a message aimed at an unspecified number of people, so there must be those who think it's good
[[phN_open]]and those who think it's not so great[[phN_close]]

I'm not aiming to appeal to everyone, so I've come to terms with that.

So, let's apply this to my own field of nursing care.

Thinking, 'I want to do this for you' because I am good at it.

Yes, I see.

Is that your own 'I want to'?
Or is it the other person's 'I want to'?

Has your 'I want to do this for you' become something the other person does not want done?

Working in this field, I meet many kind people, and I have seen many who pour their passion into their work.

How does the other person react to the intensity of that passion?

I want to help staff realize what they 'want' to do.
That is something I also think about as a manager.

However, I believe it is important whether that 'want' is objective.

The meaning changes 180 degrees depending on whether the arrow of that 'want' is pointing toward oneself or toward others.

Knowing the reaction
Changing the response based on the reaction
Being able to properly weigh it against your own 'wants'

Give it a try

I believe that a manager's role is to illuminate the path, cherishing that feeling while ensuring we do not lose sight of the essence of who it is ultimately benefiting.

Providing guidance,
listening to complaints,
conducting evaluations,
managing finances—
these are all parts of what is important, but

for the staff working,

the 'desire' to make caregiving their livelihood

is something that only a manager can support.

I am a manager who 'wants' to support staff who are working hard and looking forward, even if it feels like a hard sell.
