思う・想う・念う
出張先から書き込みます。
ひとことで『おもう』と言っても、行動が全く違います。人は皆、まずは思います。こうしたい、ああしたいと思って言っても、生温い事を言っているだけでは、何事も続きません。
『思う』は、ただ、思うだけ。誰にでもできます。『想う』は相手を心配したり、気にかけたりする。私は、“今”の“心”で『念う』念ずるのです。皆の幸せを願い、望む念いです。だから、念ったら、必ずやるという気持ちで行動します。
危機感がある人、危機感がある会社では『念う』のです。『念う』はすぐやる、今やる、必ず行動します。できるまで行動します。心の持ち方や、熱さ、一生懸命さの違いです。普段の心の持ち方一つが習慣になり大きな差になります。
トイレ掃除をしていて感じました。出張などで、社内の人がいない時には、多く人がいるところから、人手を回し、気を配るようにしてください。物事は、臨機応変に、その場で一番良い状況へ変えていくことが大事です。ジットの改善改革は、永遠であり、終わりはありません。人がもう考えなくてもいい、という時は、死ぬときだけです。死ぬまで勉強。掃除当番や、掃除場所も、一度決めたからそれで良い、ということはありません。気を配ることができるように、お願い致します。
Variances in Ways of Thinking/Feeling
Thoughts from my business trip:
The words “to think” encapsule several different meanings; or, to put it another way, although the word is the same, the approach to the action is completely different among the various meanings. The first meaning is that of a lukewarm, “Ah, this looks good” type of thought process that cannot continue for long. This “to think” is simply that: a thought. Anyone can do it. The second meaning is more of a feeling born out of concern or notice of others. Lastly, and the one I most use, refers to a heartfelt wish or desire for the happiness of everyone. With this approach to thinking, I act with an attitude of “I will surely do _____.”
People or companies with a sense of crisis are those who follow this last approach. Such people act immediately, act now, and act without fail. They act as much as they can. It is a difference in heart: how one carries it, how much passion is in it, and how much effort one puts forth from it. There big difference lies is the development of habits.
The other day I had a thought while cleaning the bathrooms. While away on business trips, although office people are not there, please pay attention to the many people who are around you. Everything in life is dependent on the time and situation it is in. Therefore, it is important to change according to what is best for that particular situation. Improvement and reform at JIT are unending. It is only when one dies that it is okay to no longer think. Study until you die. It is not enough to merely decide once who will clean what area. Please pay attention.
