In this episode, I talk about the mindset many Japanese salarymen develop through school and work. We grow up believing there is always one correct answer. But in real life, there is no single truth. Many people start looking for the “optimal answer” instead — a safe reply that keeps others comfortable but hides their own thoughts. It avoids conflict, but it also stops personal growth. When we choose safe answers for too long, we lose our voice and our worldview becomes weak. Real freedom begins when we think for ourselves and speak with our own words.
