Innovative people? 2007/02/07
I introduced Mr. Tetsuya Iizuka, the chief executive of THine Electronics, Inc. in my column "The Society to Foster Innovations" on December 25th, 2006. The other day I found his interview article, so please go to this page. (I also posted the article on my News page.)

I hope that the number of the people like Mr. Iizuka who have ambition and who put those ambitions into action increases. A society which has more and more innovative people and in which these people are active is an innovative society. This is what innovation is all about.

We don't need any more critics. If you are thinking of something, concentrate on the issue and discuss it with somebody if needed (With whom you should talk to? You don't have anyone to speak with? You don't have any friends? Maybe that's the problem you should think about.). Just do what you think is right. Nothing will start if you just make excuses as to why you cannot do something.

Innovation is not a magic wand, a secret or a trick. It depends upon your mind-set and actions alone!
