10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

Be true to the dreams of your youth. NEW! Friedrich von Schiller

What did you want to be when you were a child? A firefighter, a police officer, a baker, a candy shop owner…

You probably had all sorts of dreams.

But as we grow up and spend our days simply working through tasks, we begin to forget what we wanted to do and who we wanted to become.

In such times, remember the words of Friedrich von Schiller.

In those days when you were purely pursuing something…

your dream may still be there.

If you can learn from failure, that failure is a success.Malcolm Forbes

If you can learn from a failure, that failure is a success.

If you can learn from failure, that failure is a success. — Malcolm Forbes

Simply feeling down about failure won’t lead to growth.

If you analyze the cause of a failure, learn from it, and apply those lessons next time, that failure can be called a success.

Those were the words of Malcolm Forbes, who also served as president of the American business magazine Forbes.

It’s hard to see failure as equivalent to success at the moment it happens.

However, if you can learn something from it, it will become a treasure that leads greatly to success.

Don’t fear failure—if you fail, reflect and try again.

Keep a positive outlook and pursue what you want to do.

I think we all sometimes struggle with conflicting feelings—like, “I don’t want everyone to dislike me, but I really want to make this job my own.” If you’re a student, it might be something like, “I want to run for student council president, but would it be weird if I did…?” When that happens, try remembering Dolly Parton’s words.

To accomplish something, some sacrifices are inevitable.

Do not compare yourself to anyone else in this world.Bill Gates

Never compare yourself to anyone else in this world. — Bill Gates #quote

Do not compare yourself to anyone else in this world. Bill Gates

People can’t help but compare themselves with others.

But these words tell us that comparing ourselves to others isn’t a good thing.

They’re a quote from Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft.

The quote continues to say that comparing yourself to others is an insult to yourself.

Indeed, when we compare ourselves to others, we end up thinking negatively about ourselves, almost as if we’re insulting who we are.

Rather than insulting yourself, it’s as if the quote is telling you to stop comparing and simply do what you want, freely and as you wish.
