Try translating your own site using your smartphone. If you have a blog, try translating your articles using your smartphone. by Nada 20231104

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. I use an Android smartphone, and I use Chrome's translation function to translate Japanese sentences on my smartphone into English. I don't think many people would think of translating using a smartphone. If you are an Android user, you can set the translation function on the tab with three dots at the top right of the screen. Even if you don't have a computer, you can translate and read foreign language texts if you have a smartphone, and a laptop may really only be needed for keyboard input. Even smartphones have new features such as voice input, and the quality of these features is improving. If you want to study English, write some practice sentences yourself in Japanese, translate them on your smartphone, and write them down in a notebook. You should be able to find some tips for translating.

Of course, the translation function may not be able to translate Japanese sentences that are difficult for even the average Japanese person to understand, so it is necessary to practice writing correct and easy sentences in Japanese. In order to translate my blog into English, I use Chrome to write out my translated blog in a notebook and check to see if there are any strange expressions. My feeling is that in most cases, as long as the Japanese text is written correctly and clearly, there is no problem in posting the translated version as a separate article. For those of you who felt that today's article was a bit harsh. I'm in the process of experimenting to establish a new style while still inheriting what was good in the past. If it is possible to create an English translation site for my blog, I would like to start up more sites with Chinese and Spanish translations next. We are in the process of determining what skills are needed to achieve this. See you soon.

What does an SE, or system engineer, do? SE is a job that solves the inconveniences of the world. by Nada 20231104

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. A long time ago, I wanted to become a programmer and was studying. This time, I would like to write about computer-related books for the first time in a while. I will refer to Ryuta Yamada's ``The basics of his SE that you can understand all in one book''.

When I think of SE (systems engineer), I think of an annual income of 6 million yen. It's a little old, but I think the average salary was about that 10 or 15 years ago. By the way, the programmer's salary is 4 million yen. A feature of this SE job is that there is no fixed role. In other words, SE doesn't just have to do this because it's his job. The world is not satisfied with just that. By the way, SE is Japanese English and may not be understood overseas. In other words, from here on, we will talk about Japanese SE.

SE, or system engineer, is made up of the words system and engineer. A system can be said to be a "relationship between multiple things." Here, Wiki says, `` A system is an entire group or structure made up of elements that influence each other .'' (quoted from Wiki). it's difficult! !

Next, I will explain in my own way that an engineer is a person who uses engineering and technology to create products. Wiki, maybe! ! `` An engineer is a person who possesses specialized skills or possesses specialized talents and skills related to engineering .'' (quoted from Wiki). The combination of system and engineer is SE, or system engineer.

SE's job is to eliminate inconveniences in the world through system development. In other words, everything from the computer software to the electronic cards that are tapped at the ticket gates is the work of SEs. Here, the flow of system development is as follows.

First, define the requirements and decide what kind of system you want to create. We draw a blueprint for that purpose and implement the software according to that blueprint. Then, test whether the completed system works as expected. In my case, I have a methodology for writing this article, and in the same way, I use a four-step method for creating software. If the software were a multi-stage rocket, communications might be reaching the galaxy by now.

When the average person hears the word SE, they probably think it's a mysterious job. I've heard of SE, but what exactly do they do? The SE's job is to solve your problems. This time I wrote about SE. We look forward to seeing you again. See you soon.

Some people say that geniuses are praised and people of character are respected, but what is the reality? by Nada 20231031

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. Who is the ideal person for me? When talking about the ideal person, the first person that comes to mind is a business owner. In order to transform society, we need people who use business to shape a more comfortable society. The top person is the manager.

However, even though a manager is a leader, whether or not he or she can be respected is a different matter. A selfish person who acts only with his or her own interests in mind does not deserve respect, even if he or she is a manager. The most important thing is not selfishness, but altruism. We quickly sense the needs of those around us, turn them into products and services, and make the world a better place.

Rather than worrying only about our own company, we share profits with various stakeholders, from shareholders to employees, customers, and local communities.

Ideally, I'd like to continue making hits. It would be great if I could become one of these managers and mass produce hits, but I also need the cooperation of those around me to create hits. Without the cooperation of those around you, the game called work will not deepen and you will not be able to do anything big.

Personality and humanity are important for hitting a hit, but what is important for hitting a home run? All the greatest people in history have hit at least one huge home run. If a great person were simply brilliant and did a great job, it would be difficult to gain people's sympathy. These great people became legends because they set home run records based on their own stories.

There are some great people who died in tragic ways or lived tragic lives. I don't think modern society is wrong in its values ​​of respecting people who can be called geniuses or greats, and treating them as role models for society.

Being a genius or a great person may be painful and sad, but it is also true that being willing to step into such a position and change the world has greatly improved our lives. By the time they change the world, they are often long gone and will be honored by future generations. Some people say that geniuses are admired and people of character are respected, but I think that the more famous a genius was, the more he or she was also a person of character. However, for those of us who are not geniuses or greats, it is important to improve our daily behavior and not cause incidents that will be featured on TV, before considering our personality or humanity.

Beyond that, if there is something to strive for and aim for the top, wouldn't it be good if you could improve your humanity little by little? I'm still at the age where I still have dreams of reaching the top in something, so I'd like to keep an eye on various things and find games that look interesting. Good luck everyone. See you soon.

I want to express business administration with mathematical formulas. For now, let's create the 4Ps of the marketing mix into an equation of four variables. by Nada 20231029

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. Production management is the management science of the manufacturing industry.

Manufacturing business (manufacturing) follows the flow of "product development," "production," and "sales." "Product development" involves discussions about how to make products, such as product planning, design, and prototyping. "Production" is the stage in which ideas compiled through product development are produced into products. Everything that includes "sales" is collectively called "manufacturing."

A company's competitiveness can be said to be the source of being chosen by customers in the market and continuing to generate profits. One of the competitive strengths of a company is price. When it comes to pricing, the most important thing is to be in the black, that is, to make a profit, and no matter what kind of product you sell, it is important to set prices so that you can make a profit.

In business administration, there is a concept called 4Ps. One of them is the price that we just talked about. Furthermore, there are products, distribution and sales (place), and sales promotion (promotion). These four acronyms are called the 4Ps or marketing mix. Is it something like advertising good products at low prices and using a sophisticated sales network to inform customers? QCD supports the 4Ps that form the basis of competitiveness from below. The 4Ps or marketing mix are standards that are visible to customers, but QCD is a standard that is not directly visible to customers.

QCD is an acronym for three keywords: quality, cost, and delivery, and is value that is not directly visible to consumers. In other words, we produce high-quality products that meet your needs at low manufacturing costs and on time.

In addition to this, what I learned this time was also the discussion of the combination type and the assembly type. The mating type is a method of assembling multiple parts in complex combinations, similar to traditional automobiles. Since each part of the mating type is a dedicated part, it is not realistic to replace it with parts from other manufacturers.

On the other hand, assembled type products can be interchanged even if they are made by different manufacturers, such as in computers and electric cars, where parts are standardized within the industry. However, desktop computers, so-called fixed computers that cannot be carried around, are assembled-type computers, but one product, such as a notebook computer, that is made using parts that are difficult to replace is a assembled-type computer.

As we have seen so far, management theory is based on what seems obvious at first glance. For example, the 4Ps can be said to be the competitiveness of a product, such as price, product, sales channel, and advertising. Here, I can evaluate the 4Ps as competitiveness related to products, and tactical competitiveness such as product price, product itself, product sales channels, and product advertising.

On the other hand, I think QCD can be viewed not only from the competitiveness of the product but also from the perspective of the company. A company's quality control, a company's manufacturing costs, delivery times as a corporate structure, etc. For example, in Japan, where I live, the value system was to provide high-quality products at low prices, and we provided cheap and high-quality products.

Now, I would like to talk about Toyota Motor Corporation. Toyota Motor Corporation is a well-known company representing Japan. According to my memory, I may be wrong, but I think annual car sales were about 10 million units. This level of sales makes us one of the top companies in the world.

Toyota Motor Corporation is now under pressure to manufacture non-gasoline vehicles such as electric cars and hydrogen cars. One of the points is regarding the global environment. There were famous conferences on reducing CO2 emissions in Kyoto and Paris, and people were criticizing gasoline-powered cars for increasing their CO2 emissions. Therefore, not only Toyota but other car companies around the world began manufacturing electric cars that do not emit gas in order to overcome the regulations imposed by the Kyoto and Paris conferences. In Japan, we were good at developing complex, assembled cars, but in America and other countries, assembly-type products that combine unified parts, such as electric cars, are gaining an advantage.

Toyota's 4Ps and QCD have been at the top level in the world and have been doing business up until now, but the competitive environment will change completely with just one environmental regulation. We have produced a large number of hybrid-type automobiles and must have accumulated many various patents and know-how, but the 4Ps and QCD can easily be destroyed simply because they are bad for the environment.

However, in the case of Toyota, it has been manufacturing complex products that are assembled together, so it shouldn't be difficult to manufacture an electric car that just requires assembling simple parts. Rather, changes in the era using artificial intelligence software, such as self-driving cars, have the potential to be more difficult.

Now, I would like to introduce mathematical formulas to business administration.

I think the 4P's are "price", "product", "market", and "sales promotion". However, when the price of a certain product goes up, if the price goes up to make the product better, then there is a positive correlation: if the price goes up, the product goes up. On the other hand, when the price goes up, if manufacturing costs remain constant, sales channels and sales promotions may increase, but since manufacturing costs have increased, if the price increases, the budget for sales channels and sales promotions may decrease. I don't know. This is a negative correlation as sales channels and promotions go down.

For example, if price 1 = product 1, sales channel 1 = sales promotion 1, then

Price/sales promotion = product/sales channel.

Here, if advertising costs are multiplied by 1.2 for sales promotion, since the price is constant, product / sales channel = 1 / 1.2, 1.2x product = 1x sales channel = 1 x 1, and the product will be 0.833 times more expensive. In other words, it will be 20% worse, or 1.2x product = 1.2 x 1 = 1x sales channel, and the balance will be achieved by improving sales channel by 20%. I would like to think about what this means in the future. However, this formula may be wrong from the very beginning, so don't worry.

Furthermore, it may be interesting to turn QCD into a mathematical formula and consider its relationship with the 4Ps. If you have time, you might want to give it some thought. Great discovery! ! There may be... See you soon.

Study with an eye to the next few years. Current knowledge is based on knowledge learned several years ago. by Nada 20231029

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. What are you currently studying? I think it is necessary to plan what you will study many years in advance. What you are studying now is not knowledge that you will use in your current job, but rather knowledge that you will use in your job several years from now. On the other hand, I can say that the knowledge I learned several years ago is useful in my current job.

Key points this time : ① It is necessary to update new knowledge every day. ②The knowledge that is useful now is based on what I learned many years ago. ③We will act with an eye toward the future several years in advance .

New knowledge needs to be updated daily. The type of career you want to build varies from person to person, and the learning you do will change depending on your career direction. Even in the blog I am currently writing, this type of dictation writing style is based on the blog I was writing 4 or 5 years ago.

I started a blog about 4 years ago, but it didn't last long and I gave up after 3 months. However, since then I have updated my blog on a regular basis and now have about 170 articles. For the first three months, I desperately updated long articles every day, but just before I felt like I was about to discover some kind of superpower, I gave up.

If I had continued to update my blog for four years now, I might have been able to fly in the sky without even getting on a plane. I did something unfortunate. However, the experience I had back then still applies to me, and I didn't feel any discomfort when I started writing for the first time in a while, and I was in a state where I could easily mass-produce articles like those from the past. After all, experience of doing something is important, and in a sense, there is some validity to job offers that refuse applicants with no experience.

Currently, I am studying hard about business and medicine, but I would like to prioritize business first. On top of that, in terms of medicine, I would like to work on effective treatment methods, such as methods that include anti-aging. Well, I'm an amateur who didn't even go to medical school, but amateurs have their own way of fighting.

My hope would be to eventually publish a paper in a medical journal, such as Nature. I don't get many benefits from it, just benefits like honor.

Well, up to this point I'm just an amateur researcher, but I'm also expanding my research into various things as an amateur, so I'd like to publish the results of my research on this blog.

In a sense, it is important to say, ``Study with an eye to the future several years in advance.The knowledge you have now is based on the knowledge you learned several years ago.'' Just like a student studying for a test, it can be said to be studying for a career several years in the future. Where do you want to be in the next few years? It would be great if you could always hold on to that vision and start studying to prepare for it.

Even when studying for a qualification, if it is a difficult qualification, study ahead several years in advance. Just as students study for one or two years ahead, it would be great if working adults could continue studying with an eye on five or ten years ahead. That's why I also want to become a well-known big name in 5 or 10 years. First of all, I plan to study hard for three years, so it would be great if I could share the results of my studies on this blog.

I will be in my late 30s in three years. This will be an accident site where many events will occur in various ways, so I would like to keep an eye on what will happen three years from now. Everyone, please start making plans and starting things by looking ahead to the next few years. Depending on your efforts, something like that may come true in a few years. See you soon.

The act of hurting something, such as self-harm, may be a self-cleansing action that restores something that has been lost. by Nada 20231027

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. There are many mysterious phenomena in the world. For example, if you are infected with a virus, you will develop a fever. It may seem like a disadvantage that it increases your fever and makes you feel sick, but it actually has a self-purifying effect by getting rid of viruses. There are many similar events in the medical world. For example, self-harm. It's a disease that causes you to harm yourself. The reason why people self-harm is because they want to restore something that was originally in their body, and they can't stop doing it. That something lost may be spiritual, or it may be related to the mechanics of the body. I also have a habit of biting my nails, but it can also be analyzed that I do this because I want to restore something. I don't know if what was lost has something to do with the claws or the act of biting. The only thing I can say is that if we can regain something that was lost, there is a high possibility that self-harm will stop.

I was also able to temporarily cure my nail biting habit. If I always wear a mask, my nails don't come into contact with my mouth, so I can no longer physically bite my nails. However, after that, when I relaxed and stopped wearing the mask, I started biting my nails again. What I lost probably hasn't been restored, so I guess my nail-biting habit never really got better. There are probably a certain number of people in this world who commit suicide or self-harm. It is not known whether the cause is psychological or physical. However, if we think of hurting something as a self-cleansing action of trying to restore something, we may be able to see the causes of many self-harm acts. See you soon.

Let the boss win. Maybe this is the only way to quickly get promoted and become an excellent employee...? by Nada 20231027

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. This time's theme is about business. eh? Is business like selling expensive pots? that's right. We don't have expensive pressure points as products, but instead we have products called information. Maybe it's an information product... yes. We would like to provide you with a plan that suits you.

If you have a boss, which would you rather have: a plan that lets your boss win or a plan that doesn't let your boss win? I think this is a major turning point in the life of a businessman. If you are a businessman, you belong to some kind of organization, and of course there is a boss even in non-profit organizations such as NPOs (non-profit organizations) and NGOs (non-governmental organizations). Nowadays, there are young people who don't want to get promoted, so the responsibility of the boss is very important.

Regarding the previous question, should you let your boss win or not? I would recommend a plan that lets your boss win. This is because if a boss is promoted, he or she will try to take his or her superior or favorite subordinates with him or her. What you can do to achieve this is to polish your own leather shoes and hone your skills to help your boss win. For me, the quickest way to get promoted is to hone your own skills and use those skills to improve your boss's performance.

If you were your boss, what kind of subordinate would you want to motivate? He is very serious, and even if he is clumsy, no boss would be harsh on a subordinate who desperately tries to make him win. This also applies to me, but I can say that you need to make an effort to win over your superiors in a variety of areas, including not only your relationship with your boss at the company, but also your relationship with customers, your relationship with doctors, and so on. Even if the other person is in a higher position, I sometimes continue to whine until I get it, so I often ask myself why things came to be like that, what my boss is thinking right now, and how I feel as a subordinate. I think a person who can instantly guess what they should do is a good person.

There are times when I get frustrated when my parents don't buy me sweets, but I personally wish I could at least ask my parents why they can't buy me sweets, as far as a child can think. , I can say that I have grown. Due to the relationship between boss and subordinate, we are friends who are walking the same path. Since that friend is giving you instructions, it must be important to you as well. Do you have a good relationship with your boss? It would be a waste if the relationship ended up with one person dominating the other.

First, listen to your boss. If you ask your boss a question, he or she will tell you why he or she thinks that way. Let your boss win. If you approach things with that mindset, your boss might take you to a higher level. See you soon.
