GACKT Official X update. Translation below
I heard this year’s buzzword is “I’m going to work, work, work, and work.”
I heard on the news that some people said it goes against the trend of work-life balance, but I see it a little differently.
A leader needs this level of determination and spirit.
In fact,
it’s an excellent choice of words.
If it were “Just get it done, get it done, get it done…,” it wouldn’t resonate with anyone.
If “work” is just something that’s assigned to you, it’s a pain.
But if you take initiative in it, it becomes something entirely different.
Even if it’s the same work,
it can become a fun, proud, and rewarding activity.
Working makes the food taste better.
Working makes freedom shine.
Working gives you a sense of accomplishment and allows you to support others.
Contributing to something by using your abilities,
and accomplishing it together with your colleagues.
Nothing in life is more interesting than the moment when the rewards catch up with you.
Working can be tough, sometimes.
However,
the reality of not being able to work is even more painful.
If that’s the case, there’s no need to hesitate.
Whether it’s your boss,
your job,
or the challenge in front of you,
just approach it all with the intention of “defeating” them all.
The act of “working” is
the most powerful weapon you can use to take control of your life.
Occasionally I meet people who have retired
and are just playing around all day,
but most of them say their lives are boring.
Surely it’s only by working of their own volition
and finding joy
that humans can truly feel alive?
