「ちょっと考えさせて」が発する誤ったシグナル（渋澤 健の資本主義と道徳）
- 記事詳細
- 考えることは、大切です。ただ、考えることが行動や変革の障壁になるようでは本末転倒でしょう。考えることと実際の行動のバランスによって新しい道を拓くことが、私たちの豊かな人生につながります。こんな例をイメージしてみてください。 Suppose you muster up the courage to ask someone out for a date. You wait eagerly for the word of approval. Even a quick nod would work just fine. But, instead, you hear this response. “Let me think about it.” How do you feel? Well, you are a rational grown-up adult. You can think logically. Perhaps she/he does really want to think about it. You assure yourself. That makes sense. A person needs to think before she/he takes a course of action. Weighing the consequences of agreeing or not agreeing, seems like a wise thing to do, You are also an optimist. She/he will think about it, and eventually the answer will be “yes.” After all, you were just asking for a date. The world will not change. The sun will rise from the east and set in the west, and the daily lives of people in our world will go on as before. It is just a date, and you’re not a bad guy/gal, really. We can have fun. Yet, perhaps your little world did change by a tiny bit. Even if the final answer is “yes,” would you be ecstatic as you were before? Or, you may notice that a tiny portion of the passion you originally felt had been chipped away. The “magic” of that moment was lost, forever. 「どうせ、決めてくれないんだから」と思われてしまう 私たちは職場において、常に判断を迫られています。
