What kind of example do I want to set for my children?
Lately, I found myself asking that question.
"If you had financial freedom, would you live a relaxed, carefree life?
Or would you push harder as an entrepreneur?"
The answer isn’t one or the other.
What I truly want is the freedom to choose.
And then it hit me—
The reason I’m so passionate about AI and building systems is because
I want to spend precious time with my kids,
while also showing them what freedom can look like.
So what do all successful people have in common?
Maybe it's this: they live on their own terms.

「子どもにどんな背中を見せたい？」
最近、ふと自分にこんな問いを投げかけてみました。
「もし、お金に余裕ができたら、悠々自適に生きる？ それとも、もっと事業家として突き進む？」
答えは、どちらでもあり、どちらでもない。
僕が本当に欲しいのは、「自分で選べる自由」。
そして気づいたんです。
自分がAIや仕組み化に本気なのは、
「子どもとの限りある時間を大切にしながらも、背中で“自由の形”を見せたい」からだって。
成功者の共通点は何か？
それは「自由に生きている」ということかもしれません。
