Here are some questions and Mr. Iwakami's answers to them! How can I avoid missing tasks? It seems that you are responding to questions from various people and working on multiple tasks at the same time, but are there any rules you follow or anything you do to make sure you complete your tasks without missing anything? Iwakami: Whenever possible, I try to take some kind of reaction when I see a task. A sense of speed is important in many jobs. It may not be perfect, but I think it's important to make quick decisions and move forward as much as possible, and to not have possession of the ball myself. (That's why the response is so fast...) Iwakami: Evernote and Gmail are useful personal task management tools.
I use Evernote when I have something to think about, and Gmail as a reminder for detailed work. As a reminder, for example, when I have a task to reply to an email, I write "Reply to and send an email to myself so I don't forget! ...Having said that, there are some Phone Number List things that are just guts (lol). That's what I said! He also said that even now, he seems to be running out of capacity about once every three months, so he tries to think of each time as an opportunity to expand his capacity. Mr. Iwakami generally always has a cheerful expression on his face and never shows his mood or condition. That's why this question came up.

Do you ever feel irritated or sad? Is there anything you are trying to do or are conscious about in controlling your emotions and motivation? Iwakami: That's because we're human. However, if I start to feel negative feelings towards someone, I try to stop and think about what the other person was thinking and why they did it. Then, instead of feeling frustrated or sad, you will see the problems that need to be solved. Iwakami: The other thing is to have a longer sense of time. Even if you can't do it now, you will be able to do it months or years from now. I try to focus on the future instead of the present. He also gave me some tips that I can put into practice right away.
