Why I, who am allergic to business, thought I might give it another try

That is...

Because I happened to meet this person.

My first encounter was this.

Meeting the Unemployed Person

For some reason, it appeared in my recommendations, and I think I opened it thinking, "Rental Unemployed Person," what an interesting thing for someone to do.

A friend of mine was doing something similar, so I could sort of imagine what it was, but when I read it, the writing was interesting too.

Or rather, it was writing I liked,
that conveyed their way of being.


So, I didn't have the perception that they were a "suspicious person" at all.
(Is it generally considered suspicious?)

But at this point,
I still hadn't followed them.

Looking back like this,
I realize how easily people
don't follow others.


If you write on note without telling any acquaintances at all, it really doesn't get read.
I keenly feel the pain of not being read.
It makes you feel empty.


And without fail,
"Why am I doing this again?"
you start to think,
and you get lost wondering, "Is there any point in doing this?"


That said, I don't want acquaintances to know that I'm posting on note, so it's complicated.


And, just when I had fallen into that state of being lost,
wondering, "Is there any point in doing this?"



I met them again.


What was especially tough was when an article I thought "I might have written this pretty well" wasn't read at all. Sometimes I post with the expectation that "this will surely be read," only for it to be completely ignored. A windless note, where not even a single breeze blows.

~omitted~

Every time I write, I think, "I want to be read."
I'm writing properly, I'm writing interesting things, and I write every time thinking, "Isn't this going to be useful for someone?"

I have nothing but empathy.


It was written about where to place one's feelings regarding the "feeling of not being read," and after reading it, I felt like I had been given hope.


Here, I finally reached the point of following them.


However, at this point, I still didn't know that the Unemployed Person was posting on X.
(But my heart had already been captured)

Learning that the Unemployed Person is unemployed but not incompetent


What came up there was
"I will hold a public consultation on Spaces."


I opened X, which I rarely check, and stood by to listen.

Mushoku-san,
you're incredibly capable.

Well, of course.
Otherwise, you wouldn't say you're going to do it publicly.

To have the confidence to do public consulting and get results—that means you're someone who is incredibly good at business.

On the other hand, I was allergic to business.

Even though I felt there was no future in working for a company and jumped into self-employment, the first thing I got caught up in was network marketing. It's not a field where someone who doesn't understand business or money can succeed.

After that, I did pastel art, tried running cooking classes, held workshops, managed a share house,
and even made and sold sweets using buckwheat flour.


But.
None of it was impressive.

Well, the only thing that was barely decent
was managing the share house.

That's no surprise, as I have no interest in selling in the first place. I never found marketing or anything like that interesting at all.

Maybe I could try it one more time?


I have no interest in interacting with the general public, and before, I didn't want to sell to people close to me.
(Fatal flaw)

Who is the target?
Who is the persona?
It gives me a headache.

Manipulating psychology feels underhanded,
that's what I thought,
and I only had a negative reaction.



And yet!

When I found out that Mushoku-san started a membership


Huh? That sounds interesting!

My heart leaped
with excitement.


I don't really know.
Who Mushoku-san is.

I have to pay off my debts, and if I'm going to work anyway, I want to receive money while enjoying it, so just as I was thinking about trying note again, Mushoku-san appeared.
I don't hate working at all. In fact, I want to work.

But I'm still skeptical about business.
(I'm a suspicious person)


However,

I want to join Mushoku-san's membership!
Let's join!
Oh. Well, since I'm at it,
I'll start with a fresh mindset,
and do it with a new account!

Donzumaru Mari (Dead End Mari) is born
Later changed to Ponkotsu Mari (Clumsy Mari)
And then, Ponmari

Once I started making it, I thought,

maybe I can try this one more time!

That's what I felt.


This is, for me,
a revolution!
That's the scale of this event.


Thinking, "Maybe this time it will somehow work out!", I would join courses and seminars, only to watch my money melt away.

I ended up drowning in debt, and I truly, really didn't want to think about money anymore.

I tried doing things that you could barely call business—more like playing pretend—but no matter how much I did, it didn't go well.
No matter how much I tried, it didn't work.

I thought, "I'm just not cut out for business."
I thought that.
I didn't even want to hear the word 'business' anymore,
and I grew to loathe it.


But now, when I wake up every morning, I'm thinking about my X concept, my profile, or my note articles.
It's fun to wake up and have ideas that didn't come to me yesterday.

I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm

sacrificing sleep and meals, but my resistance to business has dropped significantly compared to before.

My curiosity tends to jump all over the place, and I get bored easily, so it's rare for me to get obsessed with just one thing.


But the experience of
being able to make something interesting depending on how I approach it
for things I previously had no interest in,
is actually quite interesting.


At this point, I even have a premonition that my life is going to become unstoppable.
Even if I'm unemployed and drowning in debt

So,
even though I've tried this and that,
I'm still a total beginner and quite clumsy,
so I'll keep at it steadily.


Lastly, here are the teachings of the Unemployed Faith,
which have further increased my trust in the Unemployed One.

It's sutra copying lol
I also did sutra chanting.


Do you want to join the Unemployed Faith?
You can do so here.


Let's become living witnesses together!


Thank you for sticking with me this far.

The Unemployed One is a capable unemployed person, but I am a clumsy unemployed person, so your support is a huge encouragement to me.

If your heart was moved even a little, I would be happy if you gave me a 'like'!

Gratefully, I have also received tips, and what I felt upon receiving them is that I am receiving 10,000 times the amount given. I am incredibly happy that it resonated with your heart and that you decided to pay a tip.
Thank you.


As an aside, the very first tip I received was actually from the Unemployed One. It seems they read it on the day I posted the article (June 9th) and tipped me immediately, but I didn't notice it until June 27th.

I am demonstrating a spectacular level of incompetence. (sweat)

If something here resonated with you, I would be happy if you continued to support me.
