In 2026, I decided to set the company in motion.
The other day,
I went to Samukawa Shrine at my wife's invitation.
“Let's go get an exorcism.”
I have no interest in spiritual matters.
My unlucky years are already over.
So,
at first, I felt a bit strange about it.
---
At the reception,
I was asked,
“What would you like to pray for?”
Since it was my first time getting an exorcism,
I didn't know how to answer.
I thought for a moment,
and the words that came out spontaneously were,
“Good health and business prosperity.”
Then,
I was asked,
“Do you have a company name?”
Honestly,
I hadn't intended to write down a company name.
But,
right there,
DAWG TAG Inc.I wrote it down.
---
The prayer began.
The priest
read out the names of the attendees.
Addresses.
Prayer intentions.
He read them one after another.
Honestly,
I was almost in a dream state.
But,
for just a moment,
my consciousness snapped back clearly.
“DAWG TAG Inc.”It was the moment I heard those words.
---
DAWG TAG is a company I created.
But in reality,
I work as a salaryman,
and the company is barely active.
Although I started the company,
for a long time,
it was just something I thought, “I'll get it moving someday.”
---
But,
perhaps since entering 2026,
for some reason,
“I will get this company moving this year.”
That feeling
has been growing stronger little by little.
There is no reason.
But,
that is what I think.
---
Perhaps that is why,
the moment the priest read the company name,
I felt, “Ah, the time has come to seriously get this company moving.”
Of course,
no one told me that.
It wasn't a divine revelation either.
But,
within myself,
I felt as if a switch had been flipped.
---
Even now,
I don't know what meaning an exorcism has.
But,
because of what happened that day,
there is one thing I realized.
At the reception,
when I was asked,
“What would you like to pray for?”
before I could even think,
the words “business prosperity”
came out.
That might have been because
it was what I myself wanted most,
rather than wanting to ask God for it.
---
I was able to create the company.But, I feel that my resolve to actually run the company was still somewhat vague.
Therefore,
that day,
the moment I heard my company's name from the mouth of a third party,
perhaps it finally felt real.
---
More than the day I created the company,
the day I decided to set the company in motion
might be the true start as a business owner
.2026.
For me, it will be the year that DAWG TAG Inc. truly begins to move.
