"People's advice is to refer to the reciprocal of the difference between your age's multiplied by the reciprocal of the difference between your age's and your age's."

I would advise you to do so.

For example, if you are 35, you should consider 100% if you are listening to advice from a 34-36 year old.

If the advice comes from a 37 year old, then 1/|37-35| = 50%.

If the advice comes from a 20 year old, then 1/|20-35| = 6.6%.

If the advice comes from a 70 year old, then 1/|70-35| = 2.8%.

It is good to be aware of this level.

Basically, it's 'don't listen to others'.

There was a time when advice from the elderly was important.

That was a time when there was no IT or iPS cell technology and no need to consider digitization.

Also, older people are very uncomfortable with the idea of a younger generation succeeding at something they once tried and failed at.

In other words, we must remember that advice from the elderly has a negative coefficient (sabotaging the success of others).

Why can I say that -- because I myself have a strong awareness that I have a "negative coefficient".

When I see news stories about young IT venture CEOs conducting self-driving demonstration tests, etc. I come to think

"Do fail"

I constantly feel me thinking that way.

Because I have failed in the past.

The human vessel is "smaller" than we think --- maybe it's just me.
