今回は、私の本「ハワイの贈り物」から「美味しいジュースの作り方」というストーリーを朗読してシェアします。オアフ島に現在8店舗あるラニカイジュースのオーナー、パブロ・ゴンザレスさんとお話をした時のストーリーです。他人と自分を比較してもしょうがない！常に自分の世界を大切にすることについて教えてくれました。ソーシャルメディアでいいねやフォロワー数に左右されている人も多いこの世の中、情報に左右されず、ぶれない自分軸を持つことについて考えてみませんか？ 

On this episode of my podcast, I'd like to share a story based on the conversation I had with Pablo Gonzales, the owner of Lanikai Juice. He strongly believes in not paying attention to what other people (business competitors) are doing, and doing what you do best because comparison won't really get you anywhere. He said he never even stepped into Jamba Juice ever! Talk about believing in yourself! 

Due to the popularity of social media, nowadays some people try s hard to compete and compare themselves to others to get that recognition and validation, obsessed with the number of likes, the number of followers, and how many comments you get. It is an addiction. 

You can live with ease and in much healthier state of mind when you stop letting others influence you. Because when it all comes down, other people's perception of you doesn't matter. What matters is you, and how you see yourself.
