「ゼロ」堀江貴文 "Zero" Takafumi Horie

「なにもない自分に小さなイチを足していく」がサブタイトル。

実刑をくらい刑務所から出所してもへこたれずに、活躍しているのは、何故かと思って読んでみた。

そして、彼の生い立ち、家族、バイト、学生時代の生活。そして、コンプレックスや仕事に没頭する姿勢など、これまで知らなかった部分が明かされ、彼のことをよく理解出来た。

ゼロにいくら掛け算をしても進まないから、一を足すことが大事という。そのとおりだ。階段でも山でも最初の一歩、踏み出すことが大切だし。

迷える若い人に是非読んでもらいたいと思った。しかし、彼から言わせれば、それこそ逃げた発想かもしれない。

「年齢や立場なんて関係なしに、やりたいことに突き進めばいいじゃん」と彼に言われそうだ。

電車の中で2時間で読み終えた。とてもやる気の出る一冊だった。

The subtitle is "Add a little bit to yourself who has nothing".

I wondered why he was active without being depressed even when he was released from prison.

And his upbringing, family, part-time job, student life. Then, the parts that I had never known before, such as the complex and the attitude of being absorbed in work, were revealed, and I was able to understand him well.

No matter how much you multiply it by zero, it won't progress, so it's important to add one. That's right. It is important to take the first step on the stairs and in the mountains.

I wanted young people who were lost to read it. But, from his point of view, that may be an escaped idea.

He seems to say, "You can do what you want, regardless of age or position."

I finished reading in 2 hours on the train. It was a very motivating book.
