0:02-0:05 Narrator: "Everything Japan can do to win the World Cup." 0:09-0:17 Narrator: "The mental training techniques of the Harada Method, which Uniqlo founder Tadashi Yanai admires and Shohei Ohtani practices." 0:21-0:30 Narrator: "Setting goals and objectives, concrete actions for realization, writing positive words daily... Last time, we explored the essence of self-management that promotes independence and growth by writing these things down." 0:30-0:39 Narrator: "In the second half, we'll learn how to build a strong team using the Harada Method from Takashi Harada, the creator of the method." 0:39-0:47 Narrator: "Praising and brainstorming, while limiting negative feedback to specific parts and actions, and not denying the person's character." 0:47-1:00 Harada: "Praising because you won, and scolding because you lost... That's a little different. You lost 3-2, but you scored 2 points." 1:00-1:05 Harada: "You have to praise that too. Why are Japanese people so bad at praising?" 1:05-1:11 Harada: "Because they value humility as a virtue." 1:11-1:11 Harada: "Yes." 1:11-1:11 Harada: "The sports world is really bad at it." 1:11-1:26 Narrator: "Let's move on to the theme of the second half. Here it is: The Harada Method for strengthening teams. The Harada Method is effective not only for strengthening individuals but also for strengthening organizations." 1:26-1:29 [Applause] 1:29-1:39 [Music] 1:39-1:44 Harada: "As you can see, there's a clear difference between good teams and bad teams." 1:44-1:44 Katsumura: "Yes." 1:44-2:01 Harada: "And what does that come from? It comes from the way of thinking of the players and coaches. If you loosen that up with mental training, it will change..." 2:01-2:02 Katsumura: "Yes. Yes." 2:02-2:12 Harada: "That makes the children like this and overwhelmingly makes the team sink. But if you praise, encourage, and suggest, it will change completely. That's what it is." 2:12-2:20 Narrator: "So, it's about changing the atmosphere of the team. That's mental training." 2:20-2:30 Narrator: "Doan Ritsu of the Japanese national team has shown the following idea about the importance of mental strength: Shin (mind), Gi (skill), Tai (body) - 9:0.5:0.5." 2:30-2:41 Narrator: "He was able to score two goals in the important moments of the Qatar World Cup because he continued to train his brain even during his off time." 2:41-2:47 Katsumura: "That's amazing." 2:47-2:48 Katsumura: "Yes." 2:48-2:55 Harada: "Normally, you practice skills and formations, and you do strength training. But he has this as well, so he has 10 in his hand." 2:55-3:01 Harada: "That means that the remaining 9 is full of potential for growth." 3:01-3:02 Katsumura: "Yes." 3:02-3:04 Harada: "Mr. Doan also..." 3:04-3:09 Harada: "...I think that ratio came about as he gained experience." 3:09-3:10 Katsumura: "Yes. Yes. Yes." 3:10-3:20 Kakitani: "I relied too much on my skill, so I think it was about 1:9:1 as a soccer player." 3:20-3:39 Kakitani: "After hearing various stories and based on my own experience, I realized that when I failed, it wasn't because my skills weren't good enough, but because my mind wasn't ready and I wasn't prepared well enough. I realized that more when I finished my career." 3:39-3:49 Kakitani: "Instead of thinking like that, I wanted to look at myself like Mr. An and realize that those things are important and play." 3:49-3:51 Harada: "That's wonderful. And one more thing: life." 3:51-3:52 Katsumura: "Life." 3:52-4:05 Harada: "In the Shin-Gi-Tai-Seikatsu (mind-skill-body-life), Mr. Doan says that if you focus on your feelings, exercise, meals, life, and improve your sleep and human relationships, your soccer performance will improve even more." 4:05-4:09 [Music] 4:09-4:14 Narrator: "By the way, Mr. Katsumura, what do you think about Shin-Gi-Tai-Seikatsu?" 4:14-4:18 Katsumura: "As I've gotten older, Shin has become a big part of it." 4:18-4:21 Narrator: "Yes, it has. What about life?" 4:21-4:27 Katsumura: "I have a family, so I put more and more energy into that side." 4:27-4:27 Harada: "Yes." 4:27-4:31 Katsumura: "I used to only think about myself." 4:31-4:31 Narrator: "What about you?" 4:31-4:39 Narrator: "For example, as an announcer, I thought that the skill aspect was more important because I was required to have skills." 4:39-4:50 Narrator: "But when I get nervous, I tend to speak too fast or stumble, so I realized that I need to get my mind in order first, and then the skill is what's required. I understand that now." 4:50-4:51 Harada: "Maybe you thought that the mind was..." 4:51-4:54 Harada: "...about spirit and willpower." 4:54-4:55 Katsumura: "Yes." 4:55-4:56 Harada: "That's not it." 4:56-5:07 Harada: "The mind has 12 elements, such as perseverance, fighting spirit, predictive ability, judgment, decisiveness, and cooperation. There are 12 of these elements." 5:07-5:08 Katsumura: "There are that many?" 5:08-5:10 Harada: "Yes. There are. Mental trainers can now quantify clients and teams according to these 12 scales." 5:10-5:17 Harada: "Isn't that interesting?" 5:17-5:21 Katsumura: "Yes." 5:21-5:22 [Music] 5:22-5:32 Narrator: "The Harada Method strengthens teams by emphasizing mental strength. From here, let's look at five specific training methods that are useful for companies and families." 5:32-5:37 Narrator: "First, setting common goals and objectives." 5:37-5:42 [Music] 5:42-6:07 Harada: "If the players are all over the place, the energy won't increase. So, it's very important to create goals and objectives as a team and then share them with everyone..." 6:07-6:16 Harada: "We have to do this, but many Japanese companies have joined us, but unfortunately, most of them don't do this properly." 6:16-6:16 Katsumura: "Yes." 6:16-6:25 Narrator: "Mr. Kakitani, do you have any examples of things that went well or were realized because you set common goals and objectives during your active career?" 6:25-6:42 Kakitani: "I think this is especially true for the recent one..." 6:42-6:43 Narrator: "I see." 6:43-7:01 Kakitani: "Of course, not only the 18 people but also the members who are not involved in the game have to play the role of the opposing team..." 7:01-7:01 Harada: "Yes." 7:01-7:06 Harada: "It's not about whether you play or not, but about becoming one." 7:06-7:09 Kakitani: "It's easy to say, but I think it's difficult." 7:09-7:22 Kakitani: "Especially for young people..." 7:22-7:24 Katsumura: "Yes." 7:24-7:37 Narrator: "Important goals and objectives for the team to face the same direction..." 7:37-7:44 Harada: "The image in the human brain is made up of three elements: words, images, and emotions." 7:44-7:53 Harada: "The words are 'We will win and give courage and energy to the disaster victims and the people of Japan.'..." 7:53-7:55 Harada: "And one more thing is visualization." 7:55-8:13 Harada: "Visualization is about creating an image..." 8:13-8:26 Harada: "Everyone watches the video of their best plays 10 minutes before the game..." 8:26-8:38 Narrator: "For example, motivation videos that raise the team's spirit..." 8:38-8:40 [Music] 8:40-8:54 Kakitani: "Rather than every game, we save it for important games..." 8:54-9:03 Harada: "We've been doing that." 9:03-9:07 Harada: "It's called the high point, the point of the best state." 9:07-9:16 Harada: "The low point is when you draw the last game..." 9:16-9:26 Harada: "It's important to recreate yourself with the image of your best state..." 9:26-9:30 Narrator: "Business people can do it too, right? The best present?" 9:30-9:34 Harada: "It doesn't have to be an image..." 9:34-9:36 Harada: "Snapshots are okay. Still images are okay." 9:36-9:41 Harada: "You can take a picture of your pay stub..." 9:41-9:42 Katsumura: "Oh, I see." 9:42-9:43 Harada: "Oh, it's easy." 9:43-9:54 Harada: "There are so many things you can do to raise yourself..." 9:54-9:55 Narrator: "Five mental training methods to strengthen teams." 9:55-10:05 Narrator: "Next is stroke, which is about enhancing mutual recognition within the team..." 10:05-10:19 Narrator: "Sports teams also lack recognition..." 10:19-10:39 Harada: "You lost 3-2, but you scored 2 points..." 10:39-10:51 Harada: "There's existence recognition..." 10:51-11:02 Harada: "But there are still some people in the Japanese sports world..." 11:02-11:17 Harada: "In the world of psychology, we call that stroke..." 11:17-11:24 Narrator: "Why are Japanese people so bad at praising?" 11:24-11:35 Harada: "Because they value humility as a virtue..." 11:35-11:38 Narrator: "The sports world is really bad at it." 11:38-11:47 Narrator: "Praise your teammates, shake hands..." 11:47-11:56 Narrator: "The accumulation of these strokes..." 11:56-12:02 Narrator: "In the recent game against Brazil..." 12:02-12:05 Narrator: "...at halftime, when they were down by two points..." 12:05-12:18 Narrator: "...the positive words of Doan and Minamino..." 12:18-12:29 Harada: "The easiest way to do that is to have the captain or coach look at the diary..." 12:29-12:38 Harada: "The number of people who do that has been increasing..." 12:38-12:43 Narrator: "Such actions that benefit the other person are also called affirmative strokes..." 12:43-12:56 Narrator: "By the way, Mr. Kakitani, what do you think about giving guidance with harsh words?" 12:56-13:11 Narrator: "Affirmative strokes that bring vitality..." 13:11-13:23 Narrator: "By the way, Mr. Kakitani, what do you think about giving guidance with harsh words?" 13:23-13:28 Kakitani: "Is it okay?" 13:28-13:29 Harada: "It's totally okay." 13:29-13:29 Kakitani: "Oh, it's okay?" 13:29-13:35 Harada: "It's totally okay. But if you understand the coach's thoughts and wishes..." 13:35-13:35 Katsumura: "Yes." 13:35-13:41 Harada: "...the relationship of trust is okay..." 13:41-13:41 Katsumura: "Yes." 13:41-13:45 Harada: "The captain forgot his uniform." 13:45-13:45 Katsumura: "Yes." 13:45-14:01 Harada: "And the coach said, 'Die! You're the worst! Quit! Go away!'..." 14:01-14:09 Katsumura: "Yes. Yes." 14:09-14:14 Harada: "It's okay to say, 'You can't be late...'" 14:14-14:24 Harada: "But it's not okay to deny Kakitani's character..." 14:24-14:29 Kakitani: "I feel sorry for giving harsh words..." 14:29-14:40 Kakitani: "I think that it's better to say things..." 14:40-14:47 Kakitani: "I should have been more assertive." 14:47-14:51 Harada: "That's right. You're kind..." 14:51-15:04 Harada: "Please, by all means, if you're going to become a coach..." 15:04-15:07 Kakitani: "Sorry, I've decided not to become a coach." 15:07-15:10 Harada: "No, please take this opportunity..." 15:10-15:10 [Laughter] 15:10-15:18 Katsumura: "Yes." 15:18-15:22 Narrator: "Five mental training methods to strengthen teams." 15:22-15:34 Narrator: "Next is self-talk..." 15:34-15:45 Harada: "For example, we're filming this with four people today..." 15:45-15:56 Harada: "That's because everyone who's participating..." 15:56-16:05 Harada: "That's the first step of self-talk..." 16:05-16:13 Harada: "Yes." 16:13-16:18 Harada: "Create 50 negative words..." 16:18-16:25 Harada: "That's what it is." 16:25-16:41 Narrator: "For example, post 50 positive words..." 16:41-16:52 Narrator: "Then, you'll start to be aware..." 16:52-16:58 Narrator: "When your mind becomes positive..." 16:58-17:07 Narrator: "This time, the second self-talk is internal self-dialogue..." 17:07-17:16 Narrator: "Mr. Kakitani, when you were playing soccer..." 17:16-17:24 Kakitani: "In my case, I would imagine my good play..." 17:24-17:32 Kakitani: "So, when it turned out that way..." 17:32-17:33 Harada: "That's 100 points." 17:33-17:36 Harada: "Most people don't do that." 17:36-17:42 Harada: "Unlike Mr. Kakitani..." 17:42-17:42 Katsumura: "They don't think that?" 17:42-17:48 Harada: "They don't think that. They think it's a fluke." 17:48-17:54 Harada: "People with low self-efficacy..." 17:54-17:55 Katsumura: "Really?" 17:55-18:03 Harada: "That's right. That's right..." 18:03-18:05 Harada: "That's the most important thing." 18:05-18:07 Narrator: "What did you do when you failed?" 18:07-18:08 Kakitani: "I would forget about it right away." 18:08-18:10 Harada: "That's 100 points. 100 points." 18:10-18:11 Kakitani: "I would forget about it right away." 18:11-18:20 Harada: "When you fail, you erase it and move on..." 18:20-18:27 Harada: "When you fail, most people worry..." 18:27-18:37 Harada: "So, change the words..." 18:37-18:45 Harada: "Change the dialogue with yourself..." 18:45-18:57 Harada: "So, energy and confidence will rise..." 18:57-19:00 Katsumura: "Yes." 19:00-19:05 Narrator: "Five mental training methods to strengthen teams." 19:05-19:10 Narrator: "The last is prediction and preparation." 19:10-19:19 Harada: "For example, a junior high school girl came to me..." 19:19-19:26 Harada: "I asked her how many hours of sleep..." 19:26-19:36 Harada: "So, that girl sleeps at 9:00 PM..." 19:36-19:40 Harada: "I asked her what time she usually sleeps..." 19:40-19:45 Harada: "I asked her if she can sleep at 9:00 PM..." 19:45-19:53 Harada: "I asked her what she's going to do..." 19:53-20:05 Harada: "In order to be able to perform at your best..." 20:05-20:21 Harada: "So, if you create everything..." 20:21-20:23 Harada: "That's the most important thing." 20:23-20:25 Harada: "It's the easiest place to get results." 20:25-20:42 Kakitani: "Our seniors would train once..." 20:42-20:42 Katsumura: "Yes." 20:42-20:54 Narrator: "I think this is very useful for business..." 20:54-20:55 Harada: "Yes, that's right." 20:55-21:03 Narrator: "So, if you create an environment..." 21:03-21:07 Harada: "It's better to think about what you would do..." 21:07-21:20 Harada: "You have to put up a barrier..." 21:20-21:31 Harada: "When a person's negative emotions..." 21:31-21:49 Harada: "So, it's very important to have a technique..." 21:49-21:59 Narrator: "The Harada Method promotes the independence..." 21:59-22:06 Narrator: "There's only one thing. If all the players become [blank]..."
