6 Conduct and practice as your master instructed
Many people ignore the instruction, conduct practice in their own way/ approaches, bear little results and complain about the methodologies. This is not the right one/ approach to be followed. Instead of proper reflection, they tend to blame others for not having any results as they wish. Therefore, Mr. Inamori encourages us to follow our masters and keep the methods as they instructed. This is the key to find other members to lead us and find the shortcut to our goals.
7 Be sensitive with information coming to you
God always thinks about you and all what you need has already been given to you. We just simply let them go without paying any attention. This is just changing our mindset. We just start checking the information coming to us assuming this is the hint from God. The news on the internet, chat released from our colleagues, and messages sent to me. All are a part of signs released from something supreme of us human beings. Switching our mindset may give us different views and flexibility to analyze info surrounding us.
8 Look for what your master has sought
This is an ancient Asian proverb; seek whatever your master had sought. A president of a company, who closely studied with Mr. Inamori, said presidents have to study hard till their companies are about to go bankrupt. This means they have to spend all of their efforts and times and other resources to study and learn, to be a better person or to get close to their masters. Thus I would like to spend as much time as possible to trace what my masters have learned.
9 Realize true self as a human being with desires
Even though we want to be a better person, we have instincts, a lot of desires, and bad emotions. Therefore first we may have to admit us; we are creatures with desires.
Mr. Inamori said, keeping daily reflection to our desires may work for us to be a better person by accumulating daily efforts. I think his attitudes and what he suggests are worth trying. We can not fully get out of our desires as long as we live, but we can face them and incorporate those of our desires into our daily reflections.
This is also good to re-write our subliminal mind: getting rid of out mental traumas.
10 Keep releasing your ideas
Launching our ideas is also important. As I have been releasing what I learned from others to the readers of this newsletter, sometimes I have got feedback. Some like my ideas, some found hints for their works. This is also good to find supporters to make our dreams come true. Potential mentors find my idea/ desire of what kind direction I am seeking for and they eventually give me advice or some support. I really find myself lucky and make other efforts toward the direction that I am supposed to head.
Therefore, to sum up, there are several tips for us to find a good mentor/ advisor/ supporter. However, working hard with honesty, sincerity, and straight forward mind, I feel we would be able to have good supporters
