Whether you see the word “impossible” as a wall or as a springboard can change your life dramatically.Takuya Kimura
These words give you the cue to flip your mindset in moments when you feel like you just can’t go on.
They’re from Takuya Kimura, a former member of SMAP who has also appeared in many works as an actor, such as HERO and Long Vacation.
If, in a situation that feels impossible, you see it as a wall and give up on getting over it, nothing will change.
But if you think of it as a spring and try jumping, the message is that you can clear even a wall that once seemed too high.
Whatever the situation, let’s shift our thinking a bit in a positive direction and leap over it!
Hesitation is proof of motivation.Shizuo Takano
Mr.
Shizuo Takano is a former vice president of Victor who oversaw the development of VHS and is also known as the “father of VHS.” The fact that you experience hesitation is proof that you are thinking things through carefully to avoid failure—in other words, it shows that you are earnestly facing that choice.
Hesitation is often talked about as something negative, so it’s rare to hear it framed in such a positive light.
For those who waver precisely because they are serious, these words can be a source of support.
No matter how tough the situation, in the end the only thing that supports you is your ‘aspiration’ (your guiding purpose).Sanae Takaichi
These words express the idea that politicians should move forward with conviction, and that it is precisely that aspiration which gives them the strength to face hardships.
When you consider that they likely come from someone who has been a politician for a long time and experienced difficulties, you can sense how strong their resolve must have been.
Conversely, it can also be read to mean that politicians without conviction cannot endure, so their years of activity may reflect the strength of their convictions.
It also makes you want to pay attention to what kind of aspiration it was that gave them the power to overcome so many struggles.
If you’re afraid of criticism, you can’t change anything.Sanae Takaichi
These are words Ms.
Takaichi said in an interview that express her stance on what politicians ought to do.
She argues that taking on major reforms is a necessary attitude for politicians, and that if they fear criticism, those reforms cannot move forward.
It’s a statement that conveys a determination to push ahead—listening to both support and criticism while steering politics toward a better future.
The very fact that she dares to say this suggests she is striving to change something.
If we were just one minute earlier, we could save one more person.Calvin Coolidge
Let me introduce a powerful quote from Calvin Coolidge: “If you are one minute early, you can save one more person.” Calvin Coolidge was an American politician who also served as President.
This saying—“If you are one minute early, you can save one more person”—was apparently an American firefighting slogan that was introduced to Japan when the American Red Cross used it in 1923 (Taisho 12) to appeal for aid following the Great Kanto Earthquake.
These powerful words that crossed the ocean truly strike a chord, don’t they?

The hardship you enjoy becomes a remedy for pain.William Shakespeare
These are famous words left by the English playwright William Shakespeare.
It’s a quote that lets you feel the way he lived—enduring hardships while looking forward to completing his work—and how he wrote the many great masterpieces he left behind.
Fear doing nothing more than you fear trying and failing.Soichiro Honda
These are the words of Soichiro Honda, the founder of Honda, a company famous for its automobiles.
Failure is a natural part of taking on challenges, but doing nothing out of fear of failure is the real problem.
As we become adults, we tend to grow more afraid of failing, but let’s remember these words and keep taking on new challenges.
