Abstract

With the current industry approaching its ceiling, many issues are emerging. This paper points out that to cope with these issues, we need to shift from working for others to working for ourselves. Its basic idea is to make the most of our current resources and to provide people with mental satisfaction to enjoy their life. The current industrial framework is technology-focused. But this paper points out the importance of psychological happiness and satisfaction, by making the most of our current resources. Thus, we can not only reduce cost and energy, but we can provide everybody with the desire to actualize themselves more. So, everybody can work for tomorrow. He or she challenges his or her own task to achieve his or her own goal. In short, we should explore a new horizon of mental world.
