The beginning is that there is black behind white

It is April.
Three months have passed quickly since 2025 "started."

"Every day, a new me is starting!"

...I won't say anything as embarrassing as that.
I don't think there are that many people who live their daily lives with that kind of feeling.


Well then, about "starting"
Actually, I started a business that is like a one-person staffing agency called [Rental Kayo-san] (though calling it that might be an exaggeration).

The trigger was meeting [Rental Nanshimonai-hito] (Rental Person Who Does Nothing).

I originally worked in the medical field, but I was actually extremely weak when it came to "pressure."
The traits of an HSS-type HSP—sensitive to stimuli, perceptive, and able to anticipate things—functioned well enough for me to do my job, and in fact, I was entrusted with various tasks. (Though that might just be my own assumption.)

However, I became a workaholic, exhausted myself, and burned out.
In addition, the more pressure I was under, the more my performance dropped. For a time, I even suffered from mental illness.

Because of all that, I couldn't stay in the same job for more than three years.

As I repeated job changes like that, my self-esteem plummeted, and I began to label myself as a "social misfit."



I'll leave the stories of the past at that.

So, why did I end up with [Rental Kayo-san]?
It started from the idea that "I want a job without pressure."
When I was talking about how "It would be really happy if I could just be someone who is 'helpful just by being there,'" a friend remembered the aforementioned [Rental Nanshimonai-hito].

"Isn't this good?"

When I learned of their existence, it was a real eye-opener.

I'm not good at communication.
I don't have anything that stands out in particular.
In that case, "do nothing."
I thought, is there really a way of thinking like that?

Responsibility and pressure.
They are things that always follow you if you are alive, but if the "must-dos" become too large, I will collapse.
If so, couldn't I make "a little bit of help" my concept?
And couldn't I also make use of this history of job changes, my housework, and my hobbies like music and art?

That is how I arrived at [Rental Kayo-san].

There is no need to cling to things you are not good at.
You should just make use of your strengths.
(If only it were that easy, I wouldn't be struggling) I thought skeptically, but no, no, it was a "change of perspective."




"Then why don't you just quit?"
That ultimate choice feels a bit harsh, and while I don't really like it, that's how it is.

It's tough.
It's no good.
When you think that, it might actually be an opportunity.
Because behind that, there is always a "I wish it were such-and-such" lying dormant.

However, almost without fail,
the "3 Ds" of "but," "though," and "anyway" will get in the way. This, too, is a defensive reaction to keep from getting hurt, though.

Which one will become dominant, you won't know until you're in that situation.
Because your remaining HP at that time and the circumstances outside of yourself will likely have an influence.
...It's scary, too. Flipping things to the exact opposite.

That's why I thought I'd like to give you a little push.
Before things get twisted, while you still have strength left.
I want you to experience a revelation and stand on a new stage.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could do this.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could make it happen.

...Yes. Exactly like the Doraemon song.

What was a long-standing complex,
"Jack of all trades" becomes "Master of all trades."
"Fickle" becomes "Experienced." Just like turning black to white in Othello, a new stage has begun.
