Even though I'm not very sensitive, it touched my heart.

If you are used to learning business books but have lost the power to sink into stories, please read this book. It is a book that can be read in 1 episode 3 minutes and regain "empathy."

It is a book that accepts the author's short episode with heart. From content such as "there is ~!" to a surprising episode. The heart moves, and at the end it is noticed and a little small story is also sandwiched.

Because I am an author of a company employee, I have empathy, I was surprised by the realization from failure, and sometimes it made me cringe.

"I'm going home on time today. 44 stories to heal you tired from work" Mahiro (Author) Diamond-sha

... Read more「感受性が低い」と検索する時って、たぶん“泣ける映画を見ても刺さらない”“人の気持ちを想像するのが苦手かも”“最近、心が動かない”みたいな不安があるんだと思います。私もまさにそのタイプで、ビジネス書の「学び」には慣れているのに、物語を読んでも以前ほど没入できない時期がありました。だからこそ、この本みたいに「1話3分」で区切られている短編は、感受性に自信がない人の入口としてすごく相性がいいです。 私が助かったのは、“感動しなきゃ”と構えなくていいところ。長編小説だと、気分が乗らない日はページをめくる手が止まって「自分はやっぱり感受性が低いのかな」と落ち込みがち。でも短い話なら、朝の出勤前や昼休み、寝る前に1つだけ読んで終われます。しかも、深刻な話ばかりじゃなくて「あるある」と笑えるものや、ちょっと驚くエピソードも混ざっていて、心の反応が“泣く”以外にもいろいろあると気づけました。 本の中で印象に残った言葉のひとつが「大切なのは、捧げた時間じゃない。」というフレーズ。感受性が低いと感じていると、「私はちゃんと人を大事にできてないのかも」と時間や行動量で埋め合わせしようとしがちなんですが、必ずしも“長く一緒にいたか”だけじゃないんですよね。短い時間でも、相手に向けた気持ちや姿勢で救われることがある。そういう価値観に触れると、心が動くハードルが少し下がりました。 もし「感受性が低い」を改善したいなら、私がやってよかったのは次の3つです。①1回の読書量を減らす(1話だけでOKにする)②読後に“何を感じたか”を一言メモする(「ムカついた」「羨ましい」でも十分)③疲れている日は“癒し枠”の本に逃げる(頭を使う本は別日に回す)。 この本は、読み終わった後に大きな達成感があるというより、「今日の自分、ちょっとだけ優しいかも」と思えるタイプでした。感受性が低いかもと悩んでいる人ほど、“心で読む”練習として一度手に取ってみる価値があると思います。
