丁度2年前から小谷真千子さんの行動や活動を見させて頂いております。丁度2年前の時は同じオフィスでエージェント活動をしておりました。現在は別のオフィスでやられておりますが (RE/MAX L-Style)、定期的に会う機会もあります。ただ最近真千子さんの活動や行動Facebookから見てます。Facebook見てながら「真千子さんすごいなとかめっちゃ元気だな」とか勝手に思います。ただねそれだけではなく、良い事で真千子さんはすごくconfidentだねとか思いますし、自分の事が大好きだねも思います。

自分が大好きだから自分を大事・大切にする。

RE/MAXの加盟者、我々は人と仕事をする事、人にサービスを提供する事です。人が中心にする仕事ですので、我々も人間なので自分も大好きにならないと行けないと思います。
そのconfidenceやその気持ち「自分が大事」の事は他の人・お客様。ご家族に必ず伝わります。自分を大事にしてましたら、他の人仕事関係で言うっとお客様を大事にしますよね。

”真千子さんの話ししてるけどこれマイクにどうなん”っと思われてる方もいてるでしょう。
このまで読んでくれてありがとう！

僕は昔アスリート(athlete)でした。高校時代はアメフト・バスケットボール・野球・陸上をされておりました。遊びで妹とテニスもやられてました。大学時代はアメフトを２年間してました。残念ながら４年間できらず同じ怪我何回もして大学２回生のシーズンの後に引退しました。

なのでアスリートは体のメンテナンスがすごく大事です。運動だけではなく食べ物、体に入れ物ももちろん大事でしょう。
ただね体だけではなくメンタルも重要です。体を動くだけで脳みそも動きます、知ってましたか？

続きは英語で書きさせて下さい（笑）

As an athlete maintenance of your body and mind is extremely important. I mentioned above in Japanese I was a former athlete who played multiple sports in high school as well as football in college.

So, What does this have to do with your life now?

Well I believe the concepts and ideas taught and practiced in sports correlates directly with the business world. You can have the best athletes in the world ("on paper"), but if they're not on the same page success isn't a given. In the business world, you can the most talented individuals working in your company, but if they lack the "team spirit" mentality your business might do well but not grow as much as it should.

In our business, we work with people. Yes, we sell or lease real estate but the decisions that are being made are by people. My thing is if I can't take care of myself, how can I take care of people looking to buy, sell, or lease property.

The self confidence I had during my playing days were gone after a 2 year or so hiatus from regular exercise. Of course I still had confidence in my ability to do certain things but the level of confidence was far in between. Last summer, I got back into the gym working out and got back onto the basketball court to play pick up. Any person who has worked out or is currently working out knows that exercise creates additional energy. What I found out, which I didn't know before is after my workout is when I'm most creative.

I happened to stumble upon a TED talk by Wendy Suzuki, a Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology discussing the correlations between exercise and brain activity. Watching her TED talk gave me a なるほど ("naruhodo") moment.
The video is linked below.

So the theme of this post in summary is to take care of yourself, people know if you aren't. One way could be to "Treat your Self" like they said in Parks and Recs. The route I take is exercise. It doesn't have to be daily but definitely should be regularly.

Remember this is about you, so finding what fits you best is key.
