Summary of "Why Celebrities Have Small Bags--The Secret Rules of Money and Happiness～" by Miho Sakurai.

This story depicts the process by which "Jun," a temp staff worker at rock bottom, dramatically transforms her life through an encounter with a mysterious celebrity named "Medicina-san."

Phase 1：Mindset Shift (Becoming the Protagonist of Your Life)

The foundational way of thinking to attract happiness.

Rock Bottom is an Opportunity: When you are at the lowest point in life, it is the perfect chance to discard old values and learn new "magic" (scientific rules of attraction).
Play the Lead Role in Your Life: Many people play supporting roles in other people's lives. Everything begins when you decide to create your own life yourself.
Give Yourself Permission: Instead of giving up and thinking "It's impossible anyway," it is crucial to give yourself permission to be happy and permission to earn money.

Phase 2: Rules of Action (Intuition and Speed)

Guidelines for action to specifically move your luck.

The Goddess of Fortune’s 3-Second Rule: When you feel intuition (a message from the Divine), act within 3 seconds before your thoughts can deny it. Moving is better than hesitating; it brings the next opportunity.
The 30-Minute Early Rule: Those who master time, master life. Thinking of it as "The early bird catches 300 million," acting with time to spare allows you to seize perfect timing (synchronicity).
Discard the Ego: Choose the perspective of the "Greater Self" that believes in infinite possibilities over the small emotions of the "Ego".

Phase 3: Adjusting Vibration (objects and self-image)

Creating an environment that aligns your surrounding energy and attracts abundance.

Utilizing the Negative: Negative emotions are sensors for detecting danger. Do not deny them; accept them with gratitude, and then pivot them in a positive direction.
How You Are Treated is Decided by Vibration: High-brand items are delicate and must be handled with care. The attitude of treating objects with care transforms into an aura (vibration) where you are treated with care by those around you.
Don the Authentic Aura: Don't choose things based solely on low price. Elevate your own vibration by surrounding yourself with high-quality items that make you feel good.

Phase 4: Releasing the Attachment (The reason for the small bag)

The essential reason why celebrity bags are small.
- Large Bags are the "Volume of Worry": Large luggage filled with "It might rain" or "I might use this for work" is a manifestation of anxiety about the future and preparation for scarcity.
- Release Worry and Change the "Setting": By holding a "Setting" of trust—such as "Even if it rains, it will work out" or "When I need it, the rain will stop"—both your heart and your luggage become lighter.
- Luck Enters the Empty Space: By letting go of the burden of worry and making your bag smaller, space is created for new dreams and opportunities to enter.

Conclusion

The reason celebrities' bags are small is because they "trust the future and have let go of worry and anxiety." Reducing physical luggage is a symbol of the resolve to control your own life and live lightly according to your intuition.

「Non Vendetevi a Basso Prezzo（Don't Sell Yourself Cheap）」
― Harry Palmer（Founder of Avatar®）

Overall Theme (The Conclusion Upfront)

The essence of being human lies in the "power to define."

Life is a journey to acquire the ability to freely travel back and forth between:

"Defining ↔ Releasing Definitions."

And the greatest message is:

Don’t sell yourself short

Phase 1｜What is a definition?

1️⃣ The Essence of Defintion

Defining is:
Giving boundaries, form and outline.
This applies to
- Objects
- Events
- Shifts in sensation

👉 Because a definition exists, "something" emerges from the background.

Phase 2｜The "Power of Definition" in Genesis

2️⃣ The Power to Create Something from Nothing

In Genesis, the world:
- begins from being "formless and empty."
God
"defined" the world out of HIs own Essence.

👉 This is not a religious story, but an explanation of a principle:

"Being（Essence）has the power to create form out of itself"

Phase 3｜Humans Possess the Same Power

3️⃣ The Mind is a "Universe Created from Oneself"

Using our own time and essence, we create
- Thoughts
- Emotions
- Memories
- Beliefs

👉Everything within your consciousness contains a part of yourself.

Phase 4｜3 Ways to Create Definitions

4️⃣ There are 3 Levels of Definition

Copying
- Defining existing things exactly as they are.
Creative Transformation
- Slightly changing an existing definition.
Creating from Oneself:
- Defining from nothingness → The most powerful.

👉 Real creation means "pouring in your own essence."

Phase 5｜Boundaries (Borders) Create Problems

5️⃣ The True Identity of Inner Conflict

Internal conflict, hesitation, and self-sabotage occur at
the boundaries between definitions.
To erase a boundary,
you must take "ownership" of both definitions.

👉 The moment you admit, "I made this,"

you can let go of that definition.

Phase 6｜The 6 Basic Operations of Life

6️⃣ Life is Composed of these 6 Operations

🔹 The Side that Releases Form (The Path of Avatar)

Define
Label
Organize

🔹The Side that Releases Form（Th Path of Buddha）

Experience
Acknowledge as Source
Discreate（Dissolve)

👉 The reward of life is

not leaning toward one side,

but being able to travel freely between both.

Phase 7｜Self-Definition Binds Your Life

7️⃣ What are Self-Limiting Definitions?

Defining yourself as unable
when you actually can
The especially dangerous ones are：

"I don't have time."
"I don't have money."
"It's impossible for me."
👉 These are not facts; they are selected definitions.

Phase 8｜The Fable of the Red Worm (The Core Message)

8️⃣ "Your Company Determines Your Definition"

Red worms stay small
when they are only with other red worms.
When they stay with large worms,
they grow large themselves.

👉The message the worm is conveying：

"Don't sell yourself short."

Phase 9｜The Metaphor of the Mind as a Closet

9️⃣ Unused Definitions Make the Mind Heavy

If you keep things because "I might use them someday," such as:
- Anger
- Victim Mentality
- Trauma

👉The movement of the mind becomes sluggish.

Therefore:

Forgiveness
Letting Go
Confession
release energy.

Phase 10｜Practice for Releasing Definitions

🔟 3 Steps to Erase a Definition

Experience it
Own it: "I created this."
Manipulate and erase it
- Make it larger
- Make it smaller
- Make it brighter
- Play it in reverse
- Then turn it off.

👉 Only you can erase your own definitions.

Final Conclusion｜The Real Reward of Life

🌟 True Value Lies Here

Not power
Nor fame
Nor wealth

👉 It is the ability to consciously move

back and forth between Definition and the Infinite.

The Final Sentence (The Core of the Talk)

"Enjoy the definitions. But do not be imprisoned by them. And never, ever sell yourself short."

Interesting Habits You Can Try Starting Tomorrow (Based on Latest Research 2025–2026) Here are selected techniques that take advantage of the brain's "bugs" and natural tendencies.

1. The Memory Booster: "3 Minutes of Tetris"

Research suggests that playing Tetris for 3 minutes immediately after a shocking event or a mistake you want to forget can prevent that memory from becoming a trauma. Because Tetris occupies your visual resources, it physically blocks negative images from consolidating in the brain.

- Application: Stumbled over your words during a presentation? Got scolded by your boss? Head to the restroom and play Tetris for 3 minutes.

2. Morning Stress Eraser: "1-Minute Grin Time"

Immediately after waking up, your stress hormone (cortisol) levels are at their highest for the day. To counter this, it is effective to spend just one minute recalling a "happy memory from the past" right after you wake up.

Key Point: It can be as simple as "Dinner last night was delicious." This alone tricks the brain into thinking, "Today is a safe and fun day," allowing for a calm start.

3. Activating Meetings: "The Magic of Snacks"

It has been found that eating snacks not only increases individual satisfaction but also enhances the creative performance of a group. Beyond just the rise in blood sugar, the shared experience of "pleasure" increases the team's psychological safety.

Application: For brainstorming meetings, try intentionally bringing high-end chocolates or unusual snacks.

4. Bypassing Willpower: "If-Then Planning"

A technique that dramatically increases the success rate of habit formation is pre-deciding: "If (X) happens, Then I will do (Y)."
- Specific Examples: * "If I sit on the sofa, Then I will immediately take off my socks and stretch."
  - "If I see my phone charger, Then I will drink a glass of water."
- The Reason: The brain is wired to remember "situations" and "actions" as a set, allowing the body to move automatically without relying on willpower.

5. "Intentionally" Ending Tasks Midway

This utilizes the "Zeigarnik Effect." Instead of finishing at a clean stopping point, purposefully interrupt your work right in the middle of a task.
- The Benefit: Unfinished tasks leave a "uncomfortable sense of incompleteness" in the brain, which dramatically lowers the hurdle to restarting next time. You can artificially create a state of "I want to get back to it as soon as possible!"

Yurie-chan, This might actually be a huge boost for money luck after all?!

Inquiries are flooding in！！！

There have been so many inquiries about the seminar in Shibuya~~~

A dialogue with yourself using ChatGPT...

How was it for you?!

↓↓↓

Want to try it?!

"Reflect on 2025, and based on our conversations from 2025, please provide a 'sharp psychological analysis' of my 'strengths' and, conversely, the 'challenges I have unconsciously avoided'! Then, based on that analysis: What should I 'prioritize in 2026'? What 'courageous decisions' should I make in the first half of 2026? Please provide specific advice!"

↓↓↓ Next...

Try putting this into ChatGPT!!

↓↓↓

My profession is [XX]. (*Please insert your own profession)

You are a world-class strategic consultant who views things through structure, not emotion. Please analyze based on the following conditions: [Premise]

I am continuing my current work "without major dissatisfaction."
However, I intuitively feel that "if I stay on this path, I’ll hit a dead end."
I am not afraid of change; I am afraid of miscalculating the situation.

[Questions]

List the three most essential reasons why "continuing my current work will lead to failure." Do this from a structural and long-term perspective, not through emotional arguments. For each reason, please clarify:
- Problems that are hard to see now but will definitely surface in 5–10 years.
- The typical thought patterns that cause many people to look the other way.
Please mercilessly verbalize the "excuses to avoid changing" that I might be unconsciously using.
Finally, describe the following scenarios if I were to continue my current work:
- The "worst-case future scenario."
- the "scenario where regrets quietly accumulate," using specific imagery. Please prioritize honesty over kindness.

*This is a prompt to face "how things will get worse" from this point forward.

↓↓↓ And then, try this!

You are a calm and essential Master Coach who has orchestrated multiple V-shaped recoveries from rock bottom. I am currently in a "worst-case situation" where I clearly feel that the premises I succeeded on have crumbled, and continuing like this will lead to ruin. Please treat this situation not as a temporary failure or bad luck, but as an inevitable process for life to transition to the next phase. Please answer the following questions step-by-step:

[STEP 1 | Clarifying the Finished World]

Identify three ways of living, working, or self-definitions that this "worst-case situation" is mercilessly telling me to "stop continuing" or that have "fulfilled their role."
If I were to continue them, describe with specific imagery a future that appears stable on the surface but is quietly decaying.

[STEP 2 | Finding the "Core" that Remains After Deletion] 3. Even if I lost everything, what are the values, impulses, talents, and questions that remain within me? * Things I do even without evaluation. * Things I think about even if they don't make money. * Things I want to talk about even if no one asks. Integrate these and verbalize them as the "OS for my next life."

[STEP 3 | Defining the True Nature of the V-Shaped Recovery] 4. This V-shaped recovery is not about "returning to how things were." What do I need to not "take back," and what do I need to "re-define"? 5. Clarify the shifts in consciousness, perspective, and choice that would never have happened if not for this worst-case situation.

[STEP 4 | What to do in the First 7 Days] 6. Without trying to get immediate results, present three "small and certain actions" to take in the first 7 days to regain energy and initiative. Do not consider results, evaluation, or efficiency at all.

[STEP 5 | Integration from the Future (Future Memory)] 7. Five years from now, having achieved a complete V-shaped recovery, my future self speaks to my current self: "It all began from that worst-case moment." Explain the three reasons why, quietly, from that future perspective.

Finally, provide "just one core message" that I should remember every morning. Choose words that spark an awakening, not just comfort.
