Win the game of SELF-DOMINATION with Natsune Oki
I didn’t know what to expect when I was introduced to Natsune Oki, we are so different – or so I thought. I’m an almost 40, married, white male living in the United States, and she’s a 20 something Japanese entrepreneur living in Tokyo. But our similarities made for an extremely engaging discussion about business, purpose, self-awareness, winning, leadership and so much more.
One of the most interesting thoughts Natsune shared was about the similarities and differences in the Japanese philosophy, Ikigai and the Greek philosopher, Aristotle. She came up with the concept of the “Identity Circle,” as a framework for self-awareness by reflecting on and defining:
- Who you are
- What you love, and
- What you do
Natsune and I went on to discuss the differenced in the mindset of a psychopath killer, like the ones featured on the hit TV show, Criminal Minds and how a similar “scarcity” mindset can be detrimental to human growth.
This episode was a Success Sandwich, and I hope you love it as much as I did. We share practical advice on how to manage time, run a business and perform at a high level, in between a fun blend of philosophy and cultural discussion.
Here are some questions I asked Natsune:
- One of the core principles of self-development is purpose. But I’ve heard you say, there is no purpose in life – what do you mean by that?
- What Non-verbal and verbal behaviors have you found effective in supporting power and confidence?
- Is it possible to envision your future if you lack self-awareness?
- How should entrepreneurs balance the idea you have to be “all-in” or give 100% when pursuing your dream but also maintain some risk tolerance? Or should they?
- What is Reality?
- Why Is Having Certainty So Powerful? and What Is Certainty Anyway?
- How do we Balance Getting Your Priority Done and Helping Others?
- How do we learn Resilience Through Mastering Self-Talk and Self-Perception?
- What do people misunderstand about managing your time?
- How do we create growth from change?
