>This may come as a surprise, but...I'm not a confident person. I can't get rid of the habit of comparing myself to others, and I end up seeing myself as lower than anyone or anything. Even if they get results, they think it's all luck and are no better than people who don't recognize themselves, and they don't have any special skills. There are people who are better than me and who are working harder. That's why I want people to turn their individuality into a special skill...I must not take away their hard work. As I continued to live like this, I found that I had nothing to be proud of. But about two years ago, when I met the people of Hasunozora, they taught me that it's okay to be clumsy at times. No matter how small, you can affirm with a genuine smile that you're amazing. He always tells me, ``I look forward to it,'' which makes me want to do my best. Although I haven't been able to have confidence in myself, accept myself, or be proud of myself yet... I'm really proud of everyone at Hasunozora and all of you. I'm going to take a detour, but I'm going to work hard so that someday I can become a person that everyone can be proud of. Let's slowly lean forward and see the scenery that can't be seen by taking shortcuts.'' This is the first time I've said it in a place like this, but... The reason I've been active in this world for a long time is ``This is Nonaka for everyone.'' I want to be the kind of person that everyone imagines me to be, and I want to carry those expectations on my shoulders, no matter how heavy they may be. I want to be proud of myself someday. I apologize for taking so long.
