普通はそうだよね｜Normally it should be...｜2020/09/27

昔は意識せずにやっていたことが多かったと思う。会社でも、家庭でも、「普通はそうだよね」というなんとなくの共通意識で進んでいたと思う。今はなぜやるのか、どうなりたいのか、どうやったらいいのかを一つ一つ考え、言葉にして、定義づけ、それを関係者で共有する必要があることが多い。面倒だし、わざわざそんなことをしないといけないなんてギスギスした世の中になったなと思っていた。しかし改めて考えてみると、無駄なことやなんとなくそうやっていたことも多い。まずは「普通は」と言う言葉を捨ててみよう。（絵と文：サカキテツ朗）

I think I used to do it without being aware of it. At work and at home, I think we were moving forward with a common consciousness that “Normally it should be...." Nowadays, it is often necessary to think about why we do it, what we want to do, and what we should do, put it into words, define it, and share it with the people concerned. It's a hassle, and I thought it was a messy world to have to do that. However, when I think about it again, there are many things that are useless or somehow done. First, let's throw away the word "normally it should be...”.　-Text and illustration by Ted Sakaki
