想做的事就去做
想做的事就去做 「不要人在天堂，錢在銀行」∼要及時行樂 喔！共勉之！
∼摘自：文╱大前研一
「沒有人每天釣魚、打高爾夫球。如果每天都做這些事，其實是很痛苦的。打高爾夫球、釣魚和旅行之所以快樂，是因為這些事情並非日常之事。」∼∼大前研一
很多人都有一大堆計劃留到退休後去做，但到了那時候，現在想來快樂的事，屆時已不快樂了。想做就馬上去做，儘管不景氣，這仍是大前研一的諍言。我說「人生不妨繞路走」，讀者或許不知道什麼是繞路。我就試著從我接觸過的多位經營者的（痛苦）小巧引出我的看法吧！過去30年間，我至少和一千位經營者共事過。正確的數字我沒算過，但是一年30個人，30年下來應該有這個數目吧。我所謂的經營者，都是社長（總經理）、會長（董事長）等事業成功的企業人士，也都是孜孜矻矻忙著賺錢的人。這些日本企業領袖多半愛談退休後的生活。有人說想每天打高爾夫球悠悠哉哉的日子，有人想回到面臨瀨戶內海的美麗故鄉天天釣魚，有人想和老妻帶著珍愛的相機環遊世界，有人只希望含飴弄孫、忘掉工作，還有人夢想參加非營利組織（NPO）到東南亞當技術指導，有人甚至想在郊外蓋間房子晴耕雨讀，或是長住澳洲。他們年老後的夢想五花八門，可謂百人百樣，但只有一點我非常確定：他們之中沒有一個人完成夢想。為什麼呢？首先，他們熬不到圓滿退休，最近半途失意退職、悄悄過日子的案例尤其多。其中多半是公司裡發生了意想不到的狀況，恰巧位在高層的他們，只好引咎辭職。另一個原因是位居高層的時間太久、積勞過度而猝逝。 同樣地，歷任會長、董事會顧問、顧問、最高顧問、監察人等職位，一過了80歲，便被送進老人院的情形也很多。他們在60歲上下時侃侃而談退休後的希望和夢想，但是一過了70歲，卻突然開始想做「終身經營者」，怎麼也不肯退休。那些能幸運退休的情況又如何呢？好像也有問題。沒有人每天釣魚、打高爾夫球。每天做這些事其實很痛苦。打高爾夫球、釣魚和旅行之所以快樂，是因為這些事情並非日常之事。 每天打高爾夫球得找到球伴，每天和同一個對手打也無趣，況且往往很快就累了。人上了年紀，打球的分數增減也很有限。只有當場地和對手都不同時，才會覺得有趣。每天要做到這樣，似乎很難。我在美國佛羅里達常看到退休老人打高爾夫球，他們幾乎是為了健康而打、為了防止老人痴呆而打，讓人感覺不到退休前所期待的「樂趣」。釣魚則更慘。釣到的魚得有人高興吃掉。老夫妻沒那份食慾；老伴每天表現出最大限度的歡喜，其實都是裝出的。釣魚必須有人樂享成果。如果還是社長任內，因為是偶一為之，擅長逢迎的職員會起鬨作樂，爭相討魚。孫子也會討好說：「爺爺好厲害哦！」如果住在市區，分送鄰居也皆大歡喜。但是在瀨戶內海的村釣魚，和漁夫沒有什麼不同。在只有老人的村子裡每天釣魚，一點也不快樂。本來還有這種夢想的經營者，現在都已打消念頭。 童年時釣魚是很快樂，當社長時偶爾去釣魚也很快樂。可是真正退休後天天釣魚，就不是這麼回事了。那位想環遊世界拍攝照片的人還是繼續旅行，只是不再拍照了。他當副社長時去過南美洲的伊瓜蘇瀑布，拍了一些幻燈片回來，當時是很稀奇，他以「副社長的南美報告」為題，宴請屬下，同時展示攝影成果。席間讚語不絕：「照相技術真是一流啊！」「哇！我也想去一次看看。」真個是賓主盡歡。他退休後又去尼羅河上游，拍回一些珍貴的照片，但是這回屬下就不捧場了。不是推說有事在忙，就是告罪下週有預算會議或要出差，理由儘管不一樣，總之就是沒人來看。就連孫子若不利誘也不肯來。結果落得只有和看過實景的老妻一起整理相簿的下場。從此他出門時不再带沉重的手動照相機，換成用過即丟的即可拍相機了。看來，即使完全實現年老後的夢想，也沒有當初所想的那般快樂。我的結論只有一句，這輩子都不要說：「我以後要怎樣怎樣……」。我的建議是，如果有「以後」想做的事，現在，沒錯，就請現在去做！想做的時候正當其時。 現在覺得快樂的事，上了年紀以後，不一定覺得快樂。更積極地說，現在就做覺得快樂的事，才能學會年老也覺得快樂的方法，退休後就能成為真正的玩家, 快樂地生活。 想做的事就去做！作者 ：大前研一
