The attitude, thought and ability

At the beginning, I'd like to note from the Honda F1 site.*1

 今考えられる最新のテクノロジーを投入し開発されるF1エンジン。そのテクノロジーの源は、自動車業界だけにとどまらないと、櫻原は言う。
 
(櫻原)
「世の中の動きがどうなっているか。他の産業ですね、例えば航空宇宙ですとか、軍事産業ですとか、当然自動車関係。それから医療関係とか、そういうところが、どういう動きをしているのか、というところを見まして、我々に足りないところがないか、とか、少しでも使えるものがないか、とか、そういう動きをしているんですね」



It needs hardly to be said that F1 is the fruit of the most cutting-edge technologies from all over the industries.
And the competition is so fierce that it's absolutely necessary to take advantage of every available stuff.
So they have to set up their antenna to many field, he said.


I think this principle is applicable to any profession. It's too much to say the examples of inventions using some hints in the other industries.


In general, whereas we recognize the importance of being interested in other industries than ours, we make an excuse that we don't have enougg time to do that.


I think it's one of the essencial differentiater in proffesional career not only to recognize the importance, but also to save time to set up the antenna. Furthermore, it's also very important to apply the information in othre industries to our own industries.


In short, the three keys, the attitude to the information in other fields, the strong thought to save time and the ability to apply it, are necessary for us to survive, I think.


See you!
