TEDx Talks:


「遠回りも悪くない」

Not bad for a detour | Sakura Hayashi | TEDxAnjo



日本には「初志貫徹」「首尾一貫」のようにぶれない生き方が美徳とされる風潮があります。 この春社会人になる林咲良も小さな頃から自分が本当にやりたいことを探し求めてきました。たくさんの葛藤と挫折を経験した彼女は、自身の選択に「遠回りも悪くない」と力強く語ります。

Japanese people tend to praise it as a virtue to go through what they have decided once to the end. Sakura Hayashi, who will graduate from college this spring and start working as a professional, has been searching for what she wants to do since she was little. She has experienced a lot of conflicts and setbacks, but now she looks back on her choices and strongly says, “The detour is not so bad.”
