① The Common Ground Between Producers aand Coaches
Both producers and coaches are partners who walk alongside others, helping them discover and express the answers already within.
Their stance of “there’s no fixed formula” embodies true coaching — rather than forcing a mold, they refine each person’s unique strengths and vision.
② "Love and Understanding Go Hand in Hand"
Love alone can easily turn into control or dominance.
True love is born from deep understanding.
Whether with clients, children, or teammates, it’s essential to practice both love and understanding together.
③ The Art of Subtractive Producing
It’s not about adding more — it’s about removing the unnecessary to reveal authentic beauty.
Like sculpting a finished form out of stone, the real brilliance of a person or creation emerges through refinement.
Both authenticity and radiance are born from subtraction.
④ The Power of Product-Out Thinking
Rather than chasing market trends (market-in), dare to go all-in on what you truly love.
To become one of a kind, polish your core essence relentlessly.
⑤ Speak to "Just One Person"
Trying to appeal to everyone dilutes your message.
The more you focus on reaching one person deeply, the more naturally your message spreads.
Even in production, one true believer is enough — quality of connection outweighs quantity.
⑥ The Producer's Practical Perspective
Production doesn’t end with creation — it includes delivering the message.
The most crucial factor is casting: who you choose to collaborate with determines the outcome.
Strategic outsourcing and skill-sharing can also expand value creation.
⑦ Applying it to Life, Work, Parenting
The philosophy of producing applies equally to parenting and human relationships.
Loving + understanding your child = real parenting.
Coaching follows the same principle: polish what already exists, never control it.
It’s a mindset you can use in leadership, education, and daily life.
Conclusion-The Essence of Real Producing
A real producer is a companion who draws out the answers within others through love and understanding.
True success is born from subtraction, commitment to one’s core, and speaking deeply to one person.
Producing, coaching, and parenting all share the same essence — a way of being that can enrich every part of life.
👉 In short:
The secret of great producing is not adding, but refining;
not love alone, but love plus understanding;
not reaching everyone, but touching one person deeply.
🌟 Insights from the Recent “UP & UP” Session
1. Overview
What began as a monthly learning lunch between Takumi-san, Fujimoto-san, and Oshima-san has now evolved into the shared learning community “UP & UP.”
Their Dubai field visit offered firsthand exposure to the intersection of national strategy, finance, ambition, and global networks.
When it comes to innovation (0 → 1), there are only two core principles:
① Add transformation to something existing
② Combine existing elements in new waysThe realization process uses the RAS (Reticular Activating System):
set the vision → “let it go” for a while → act when inspired behavior naturally emerges.Breaking through plateaus (1 → 10 → 100) requires using frustration as fuel and listening deeply to the unspoken voices of customers through real conversations.
The benchmark isn’t to be Japan’s best, but the world’s best — with a commitment level equal to the NBA’s “life-or-death” mindset.
Focus on “To Be” rather than “To Do.”
Embody values like love, gratitude, growth, and challenge in daily habits.
When you fall into a hole, dig elsewhere and build a mountain there.Strengthen output skills through quantity first, then compression:
record → transcribe → organize → blog.
Reinforce learning with the three-color reading method and repeated reading for deeper internalization.

2. The Story Behind “UP & UP” — How It Began
It all started with monthly lunch notes and learning exchanges.
The idea emerged: “Let’s open our learning to others.”
Through shared meals and experiences with Irie-san, their perspective rose to a new level.
3. Insights from Dubai
National strategy: shifting from oil to finance; a top-down approach to city and real-estate design that attracts global capital.
Spirit of ambition: people from around the world gather to “rise higher,” and just being there elevates your own standard.
Power of networks: the local Japanese and entrepreneurial communities are tight-knit and highly supportive of new challenges.
4. How to Create 0 → 1 — The Two Core Principles
Add change: newness is born simply by making the existing more convenient, more fun, or easier to use.
Combine: cross-field fusion creates leaps in value (Walkman × phone → smartphone).
→ Don’t aim for “something from nothing.” Focus on re-combining the existing.
5. The Realization Process — Using RAS
Lead with vision: clarify an inspiring future in vivid form — photos, drawings, words.
Don’t rush the “how”: thinking from the past blocks creativity.
Let it rest: once the RAS (Reticular Activating System) is engaged, it automatically collects relevant cues.
Act on incoming signals: test → learn → move forward.
Borrow wisdom: think of who already knows how and ask them.
6. Breaking Through the 1 → 10 → 100 Plateaus
Use frustration as fuel: staying comfortable stops growth. Step into a new field, experience loss, and challenge again.
Raise the standard: learn from NBA-level “life-or-death” commitment (Hachimura’s example).
Adopt a world-scale measure: aim beyond Japan’s best.
Client interviews: skip surveys — through dialogue, capture the unspoken value (e.g., “healing loneliness”) and redefine what you offer.
7. To Do → To Be — The Power of Being
Clarify core values: love, gratitude, growth, challenge — express them through daily actions.
Embed them in gestures: greetings, courtesy, small acts of care — show love in the details.
If you dig a hole, build a hill: when you make a mistake, make up for it through good deeds elsewhere.
Give & Love: go beyond give-and-take; keep giving without expectation.
8. Building Output Power
From quantity to compression: refine stories — 40 min → 20 min → one line of essence.
Systematize recording: record → transcribe → edit → blog → reuse (in seminars).
Three-color reading method:
• Blue = Inspiration / Insight
• Red = Immediate Action
• Green = Business Idea
→ Later extract and sort into action plans, idea bank, and learning log.Repetitive reading: reread one book ten times rather than read ten once; revisit seasonally.
Daily / Weekly / Monthly journaling: make reflection and redesign a routine.
9. Quick Practice Checklist (Workshop Mini Version)
A. Vision Setting (10 min)
① Describe your ideal scene in one visual sentence — who benefits and how?
② Turn words and images into a visible board.
③ Stop searching for the “how” — let RAS work for you.
B. Designing 0 → 1 (15 min)
④ Which existing things could you change? (list 3)
⑤ Which could you combine? (list 3)
⑥ Choose one mini-experiment (what, who, when).
C. Breaking the Wall (20 min)
⑦ List 3 recent frustrations → attach next-action plans.
⑧ Interview 3 clients on : reasons for joining, leaving, and recommending.
⑨ Replace one metric with a world-class benchmark (market, quality, speed, etc.).
D. To Be Practice (5 min daily)
⑩ Pick one action each for love, gratitude, growth, challenge.
⑪ If you “dug a hole,” immediately “build a hill” elsewhere through kindness.
E. Output Habits (15 min)
⑫ Compress today’s learning: 140 → 400 chars → 1 headline.
⑬ Use three-color reading: schedule “red = action” items for tomorrow.
⑭ Record → transcribe → draft a blog next day.
10. Key Concepts (to Remember in Keywords)
Dubai / Power of Place / Add Change / Combine
RAS / Let Go → Catch Signals / Global Standard
Frustration = Fuel / Customer’s Unspoken Voice
To Be First / Hole → Hill / Quantity → Compression
Three-Color Reading / Repetitive Reading / Regular Journaling
