Chong, my friend and teacher, thank you for organizing my threads, I'm kinda messy. Here in Japan we have the "5 S".
Seiri: Organize, meaning putting or throwing away the tools you don't use.
Seiton: Arrange, meaning putting in order the tools you use often. So you can find it anytime you need it.
Seiketsu: Clean, meaning keep it always clean and shiny. No oil or dirt.
Seiso: Clean, clean it up by brushing, wiping, etc.
****suke: Discipline, meaning keep all the rules, and your uniform tidy.
The 5 S stated above are the basic rules of any Japanese company or home.
But I, being of Italian blood lack these virtues. I'm always mixed up. Not well organized. Put until tomorrow what you can do today! Why do we have "manana", tomorrow? Let's do it manana! That's why Brazil is only 8 years younger than the U.S., but we are far, far, behind. Let's enjoy life today and work manana! With the Japanese it is different, they are workaholic, they rest only after the're dead. If you give a 3-days-vacation to a Japanese, he gets desperate, he doesn't know what to do with it. Japan is about the size of France. 70% of the land in France is arable. In Japan only 15% of the land is arable. Most of the country is mountainous and rocky, of volcanic nature. But production is very high, especially in my area here in Mie Prefecture. Well, what I really want to do now, is to learn how to post pictures in the forum, I'm waiting for my son to come to my house and teach me, I'm kinda uneducated about computers. I'm a slow learner that's why it took me more than 40 years lo learn about the Japanese culture. Bye, for now, and always thank you for helping me. Gracias.
