量産型日本人サラリーマンの思考様式 〜 “最適解”に縛られる生き方とは〜

In this episode, I explore the mindset of the “mass-produced Japanese salaryman,” shaped by an education system that teaches there is only one correct answer. But in real life, there is no single truth—only choices. Instead of embracing freedom, many workers shift from seeking the “right answer” to chasing the “optimal answer,” a safe response that avoids conflict and preserves harmony. Convenient, yes—but costly. By choosing safety over expression, they stop developing their own worldview and eventually lose the ability to speak in their own words. True freedom begins when we think, decide, and narrate life for ourselves.
