This isn’t experience points! The key to someone who starts turning a profit right after enrollment lies in their practice method.
Hello, this is Shimoyama.
Around this time every year,
we have a “war features” segment, and when you think of war
the manga “Barefoot Gen” comes to mind.
There may be different opinions about it,
it’s a manga that was in school libraries
that everyone has seen at least once somewhere.
That so many people recognize it and
have read it for a long time
means that an “essential element” is depicted there.
That’s why I myself still sometimes reread “Barefoot Gen,”
and what I always feel when reading is
the “horrors of common sense.”
During war,killing people was considered acceptable.
That was the common sense of the time.
If you said things like“Life is precious!”
or “We oppose war!”
you would be called
a traitor to the country.
Because of those times,people who were saying “We oppose war”
would eventually be carried away by the era’s norms and
come to believe that “killing people is right.”
A “common sense” capable of turning people’s thinking 180 degrees is a frightening thing.
Now,in the corona pandemic, common sense is being shaken.
Anda new common sense is about to emerge.
In a sense,the level of societal norms changing is
almost as high as during wartime.
In such a turbulent era,what is important is
to think with your own head.
No matter what others say around you,
you need to think through
what is truly important.
Sometimes you may arrive at ideas that contradict those around you,
and you might feel painful because of it.
But,that is precisely why it’s valuable.

The worst postwar slump
=====================
2020 was the year the war ended and marked the 75th anniversary.
It has been 75 years, but
the April–June 2020 GDP was
the worst in those 75 years.
“The worst decline in 75 years”
Even hearing that,
you can’t help but feel how economically tough the current era is,
and understand it.
In such a situation,what is required to live with economic security?
“Risk hedging.”
In the Showa era,
holding down one job for life felt safe.
However,after the bubble era
that common sense began to crumble,and during this pandemic
that common sensecollapsed.
Of course,there are people who will continue to
work for a single company for life,and I don’t deny that.
However, in these uncertain times,the number of people who can stay with one company
will likely decrease.
In the coming era,
when you think, “If I stay at this company, it might be dangerous,”
you should have the courage to quit to hedge against risk.
There are clear standards for which companies you should quit.
For details,
we discuss on YouTube under the title
“Important: 3 features of companies you should quit immediately.”
So please take a look,
but

Since you’re here, I’ll share one of the three features.
One of them is
“A company whose salary payments are delayed”
should be quit.
Why? Because a company that delays salary payments
is rarely able to recover.
Unfortunately
dramatic recoveries like in TV dramas
are almost never the case in reality.
Especially since the current situation,economic recovery is not yet visible.
That said,
there may be various reasons you want to stay with a company.
“Even in such times, I want to help the company I’ve been supported by.”
There are kind people who think that,
but first you must consider that your own life must not collapse.
If you lack the stamina yourself,
you cannot help anyone.
Choosing a company can determine whether your life ends up happy or unhappy, so
I hope you find this helpful.
============================
It's not about experience! The key to profits right after enrolling is practice methods.
============================
However,even so
you may think you can’t find a new job now.
There are those who feel that way.
In that case,you have no choice but to earn on your own.
If you can, explore ways to earn that you’re interested in,
but whatever you do, you need to acquire skills.
When developing skills,
it is commonly thought that you gain skills by spending time and accumulating experience.
Indeed, veterans often have higher skills
than beginners.
Therefore,when thinking about skill-up,\n
many people believe you must spend a lot of time.
For example, the “10,000-hour rule” is well known,
but in reality simply accumulating time isn’t enough,
as it’s become clear.
Even in investing,some people gain no profits no matter how much experience they accumulate.
Some people start turning a profit in 3 months, while
others take 5 years or 10 years and still struggle.
Time spent
does not automatically guarantee skill improvement;
you can feel this intuitively,
so, what is truly essential for skill-up?
The answer is here.

=====================
What separates top-level people from others is
not experience.
It’s how deliberate your practice has been.

=====================
“Deliberate practice” is the key.
In the Stock Academy as well
when practicing in past trades,
we tell you not to chase profit,
but to focus on “defining the theme.”
and we say this.
“If you can’t say,‘I’m practicing this because I want to master this type of trade,
I’m practicing this now,’
then most of your practice time may be wasted.”
In investing and beyond,
if you want to acquire any skill,
definitely practice with a defined theme in mind.
Thank you for reading to the end.
Thank you very much.
