blog - Hope!

We will never forget hope. Hope! What a sweet, blissful word!

Hope! I should not forget this word. Never!


Hope... Yes, I can.

blog - The Judgement Day has passed!

I was supposed to take an interview in English for a new position involved in an EAI project last Monday. But the chance had passed by me without bringing any effects on me. In short, the interview was held only in Japanese, and the position was not for EAI, which is for me the most exciting area.

I was disappointed at the fact that my challenge or turning point had passed. I was supposed to make a big deal or get extraordinarily disappointed at my current English ability. Both are really welcome for me, because any change can bring to me great growth.

But today, I got a new challenge. The company offered another interview which will be held in English tomorrow. Oh my god! Oh my godness! Thanks God! The time has come! My English will be tested in the real situation. My endeavor from three years ago will be judged whether the time is meaningful or not.


The day will come!

blog - Obama, Win!

The time is closing that Obama becomes the President of the United States of America. I'm 99% sure that that will surely happen. 0.5% is that Hillary will defeat Obama in Ohio and Texas, and the other 0.5% is that Obama will be defeated by MaCain in December, but the both are unrealistic as of now.

The world would start considering what will happen when Obama will be the president of the most powerful country of the world. The world would start anticipating how the world will change by the fact that the ever most thoughtful person will be at the most powerful position influencing the world.

I'm excited about this. I've already started envisioning the world after the time will have come. I've already been ready for the change in the area of investment, life planning, and a new kind of politics.


Don't overlook this significant change the world has never experienced ever.

blog - Judgement Day has come!

I'm not sure what I should do one day before the Judgement Day. At the day, I will be tested whether I have a proper language skill to work on a global project. I will be tested whether my direction to the goal is right or not. I'm fired up, or I'm scared up. :-)

I've done what I should do. I've started reading a great book, "Enterprise Integration Patterns". I've prepared scripts titled "Let me introduce myself". I've focused on improving my English skills this weekend and sharped my body and brain with a strict attitude.

Tonight, I had better get the bed early rather than stay up late to prepare more. Generally speaking, the previous night needs to be calm and quiet enough. Anyway, I'm doing my best so as to see the person. I'm doing my best continuously from now on in order to make my dream realize.


The day has come!

blog - Blunder in investment

I made a mistake. I should have sold my stocks at the time, but I couldn't. More worse, I justified myself after that, saying that was under a plan. Looking back from now, that was not just a blunder, but a very critical moment at which I became a mediocre investor from a wise investor.

I should have sold my Chinese stocks at that time not one third, but more than two third. This will cost me not only more than 10 million in fact, but also more than 30 million in potential. So, I need recover the damage in an enthusiastic way. Well, road to a wise investor again.


I expose my blunders to public for further growth.

blog - I'll have an interview next week

Yeah, I'll have an interview next week to get a position of a Japanese engineer on a certain project in my company. That was weird to me at first in a sense of being needed to have an interview to work on a normal project. But it's natural, when a buyer is stronger than a seller. Um...too bad.

Anyway, I will have to have an interview session after a long time. The previous ones were held at the time I looked for a job last year. I'm a plan-driven person, then let me plan for that. To be honest, I've already prepared for that since last week like by writing "let me indrocude myself" stories.

By the way, it's exciting to have an interview in English. I will be able to try my English ability in a formal situation. It's frightening too, because if I fail to get the job done, it will disappoint me seriously in a sense that I'm not ready for the level, as well as that I won't achieve my goal in the Business area.

In the Business area, as I wrote the story in my Japanese blog, my target has been settle to enroll a management curriculum in US which is sponsored by my company. And for this to be realized, I need to accomplish two bussiness achievements including the thing mentioned above.


I'm a professional, so I'm eager to win.

blog - The AUDACITY of HOPE

What a book is this. What a man is he.

My body is shaking with a deeply emotional feeling. What a man being standing up on a stage of the most powerful position. The history will change for sure.


I cannot help waking up!

blog - think BIG

"Think different" is a catch copy of Apple. Now I say this: "think Big". Drinking a grande soy latte at a Starbucks Coffee today, I was thinking what I am, what I should do from now, and what I can do in my life. People say "anything is possible", or "if you desire, the dream will come for sure". Okay.

I thought I had a dream, or I was a man who could set the dream and could proceed toward that with a strong determination. Okay. Partly right, but partly wrong. There's possibility that I misunderstood what the dream was. Yes, I had a dream, but was that true? Was that real one that the person can achieve in his life? There should be concrete paths and realistic milestones.

"Think big" is a wonderful slogan, of course, to make the dream big and make the life big. But there should be supplement to make it sure. There should be key points to make it really happened. That's an absense of my dream. That's a shortcoming of my planning.

So, I need to make a concrete plan to proceed on my way step by step. Leveraging my strengthes and experiences, I must put clear goals and milestones into the schedule. I'm a stragegist. I'm a practitioner. I'm a man who thinks big. (You know I understand this sentence is wrong in grammar.)


Let's roll!

blog - I've noticed

I've noticed that I needed to concentrate on what I should do more and more. That's not enough currently. Look at Obama. Look at men who have achieved something they want. For instance, what I've done for this three years is just studying English, changing a job, and getting old. I became 33 years old yesterday! What an age! What in the hell am I!

But since I noticed, I cannot help but try to do, do my best, and focus on what I should do. My youth has gone, but so what? I have a healthy body and mind, and more importantly a dream I cannot help but yearn for. I will be a man who I want to be. I will prove to myself that I can do that. My left leg hurts due to an unknown cause, but I don't care. I cannot help but proceed ahead.


My new era has been started.

blog - Let me introduce myself #2

Rather than building well-defined sentenses to introduce myself, sometimes it's better to list up key points with bullets. So, let me do that as below:

• Having 10-year experience in the industry
• Mainly Windows-based technologies
• Through a programmer to a project manager
• Very good people skills

As major parts, above mentioned are enough. So, from now, let me introduce projects I've engaged in ever. Or, let me do this on another blog, because a lot of jargon will appear there.


Let me...

blog - YES, WE CAN!

Obama won in Washington, Nebraska, and Lousiana with a huge margin. This is what I expected for in February 5th. Finally, the time has come. America is choosing a right person who brings a true politics to the world. America will change. In turn, the world will need to change.

In Japan, I cannot find a right person these days who will bring a right politics to the nation. But if people desire to change, a change agent will definitely come. This is a law or principle of the nature. So, I will continue to see the American politics, while I'm looking for a right person here in Japan.


Yes. We can.

blog - Let me introduce myself #1

Sometimes people need to introduce themselves to public, friends, and interviewers. The most effective way to make a good speech is to prepare it in much advance as much as possible. "Be prepared" is a golden word for everyone. So, let me do the same for my future use!

I'm from the company working as a project manager. I have more than 10 year experience in this industry as a programmer, systems engineer, and project manager. At the previous company, my technical area hinges on Windows technologies, like the OS, C#, or SQL Server. But after joining the current company, I uses UNIX and Java technologies in the field of enterprise application.

In addition to technical aspects, I have a broad range skill set, like project management and business analisys ability. As evidented by my qualifications, I never stopped learning a new thing, and challenging a new thing. For instance, recently I've had a lot of opportunities to talk with Indian people, and I found some day that I needed to learn their culture and history in order to make the communication better. So I started reading books written about their culture and history. In fact, that made sense.

Regarding English, I've also never stopped learning it. Starting to study it three years ago at a time I noticed the significant importance and finished another learning, I got a desired score on a English test and still now I'm learning it at a daily basis. In a sense, I like studying.

My charcteristics are proactive, hardworking, and intelligent. I go to the customer, rather than the customer comes to me. I'm hardworking at the same time I know when hardworking is necessary. I'm intelligent in the sense of predicting the future with deductive and inductive thought, or with logical and intuitive senses.


Next, I'd like to talk about projects I engaged in ever.

blog - Hey! Americans!

I'm disappointed. I'm really dispappointed at the result of the election, especially in California and New York. What a nation American is. If they choose Clinton, the world continues the current posture, ending the world destruction.


I'm really disappointed at you, American people!!!

blog - Reading various books

I found some day that it was useful to read books in the different fields, like information technology, psychology, rock-climbing, and so on. Doing so, I can get different type of words and expressions. That makes sense in enriching my vocabulary and my speaking skill. And so I've started reading various books intentionally.

From a book written about information technology, I can get words in the industry and I can use them at the office with Indian colleagues. From a book written about psychology, I can get words that I can use when describing my life and the world. From a book written about rock-climbing, I can get words that I can use when describing dairy lives and motions of my body.

That's a key to enriching my English ability. That's a key to accomplishing a higher goal. That's a key to knowing the world better, and making the life better and more wonderful. And so I've got this place and determined to walk on this road.


That's a key.
