There is a saying, "You can't see the forest for the trees."。Don't just pay attention to trivial things、Never lose sight of the whole、That's what it means、Even though I understand the meaning, I don't know if it's actually a tree.、Is it a leaf or a branch?、You won't even know if it's just a single grain of pollen.、For example, when working on a computer。

Enlarge a single photo on your computer、retouch、change the color slightly、There is even more detailed work within that work.。What font (character design) should you use to enter text?、What should be done about the spacing between letters and line spaces?、Whether to put a border around the text or not、What to do with the color of the text, etc.、There's more detailed work here too.。trivial? The number of tasks is increasing rapidly.。

Leaves from such branches、In the flow that separates from the leaf to the veins、Turn around and face the whole tree in the opposite direction.、Further beyond that tree、Seeing the forest stretching beyond、quite difficult。Even in one direction, there are so many layers that I almost lose track of my position.、A structure in which various applications are arranged side by side。And it's still、This is limited to easy-to-understand examples of “work”。
It has been said that "look at things from the upstream"。From the forest to the trees, just like a tree diagram、Look from the tree to the branches and leaves、I have interpreted it to mean that、School education mostly sees the forest from the leaves.、I think it's the opposite direction。

when、At what point does education begin to reverse perspectives?。In today's Japan、at undergraduate thesis or graduate level、Maybe we can finally train ourselves to see it that way.。I feel like everything else has been left to "individual study".。It's not about studying for an exam either.、deep interest in one thing、If you have the freedom to study without being restricted by time and an environment with good friends,。What environment is necessary to “see the trees and see the forest”?、Every day I feel like I'm getting further and further away。

I thought "match pump" was a dead word a long time ago.、In recent years, "stealth (invisible) marketing" (asking celebrities to use products on TV programs, etc.)、Is this an economic term called "advertising without informing people"? Attracted by the appearance of、It seems that it has become a word that reappears from time to time.。

match pump、usually only used in a negative sense。I started a fire with a match、Be the first to rush to the scene、water with a pump。So try to get the honor of extinguishing a fire、Of course it means that。In fact, there are surprisingly many such cases.、From there, it seems to have been used as a metaphor for international politics.。“Putin’s war” also appears that way.。

Thinking about recent things、It looks like the situation is full of match pumps.。The “spark” is “entrepreneurship”、When the names of the roles change from “conspiracy” to “sharing” and “media” to “inciting role”、It looks like that。However、That's multiple、The performers may also be acting without realizing it.、It has become “stealth”。on the other hand、YouTube videos and tiktok、Instagram etc.、This is all self-made。Although it is not called a match pump、Do you mean it in a good way? And it's starting to become the norm。

but、This “self-made and self-performing” is basically freelance in the literal sense of the word.、While being welcomed in the media,、The actual burden is quite severe.。Skateboarders who won gold medals at Tokyo 2020、The difficulty of the road to get there is probably already known to some extent.。But、They must not forget that there are people before them who have taken the first step on this path.。follow the path、Of course, it is difficult to widen the path.、The first step is no less、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。How difficult is it to light a match?。If you go to the pump、I think it's as good as a semi-success.。
