Schools in the USA (Washington State)

スレッド
Schools in the USA (Washingto...
Schools in America tend to be much newer, larger, and equipped with more facilities and resources. The budgets allocated to public education in the United States are generally much higher than those in Japan, especially when it comes to the physical infrastructure. Significant amounts of tax money are invested in building modern campuses, purchasing state-of-the-art equipment, maintaining sports fields, and providing advanced technology such as computers and interactive whiteboards.
 
In contrast, many public schools in Japan are older and far less equipped by comparison. It is not uncommon to see decades-old school buildings with minimal updates. Classrooms may lack modern teaching tools, and facilities can be quite basic. However, this does not necessarily correlate with the quality of education.
 
In fact, the educational outcomes tell a different story. Despite having older facilities, Japanese students consistently perform well in international academic comparisons, especially in math, science, and literacy. The emphasis in Japanese education is often placed on discipline, effort, and foundational skills rather than on the latest equipment. Teachers in Japan also tend to have strong professional training and a deep commitment to fostering learning.
 
In short, while American schools may appear more modern and better funded in terms of infrastructure, Japan demonstrates that the true strength of an education system lies in its teaching, culture, and academic focus—not simply in its buildings or hardware.

Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. 341 Start Your Company First

スレッド
Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. ...

Start Your Company First

"I have an idea. I even have a product or service in mind. But starting a business sounds scary”.
If you feel this way, you’re not alone. Many people feel the same.

But here’s what I want to tell you loud and clear— Start by creating your company.

To be honest, I didn’t start my company because I had a grand dream or ambition. I was simply pushed into a situation where I had to continue my work, not as an employee, but as a business owner.

I had two options: Quit, or do it on my own.
I chose to do it on my own and set up the company.

Of course, I didn’t prepare anything at first. But once I officially registered the company, something shifted in me. Every step, from obtaining a title to opening a bank account to distributing business cards, made me feel like a real entrepreneur. And gradually, owning a company started to give me trust and opportunities that I wouldn’t have gotten otherwise.

That’s why, if you have an idea or something you want to try, I encourage you to just start by creating your company. It doesn’t have to be perfect, and you don’t need to have everything figured out. Creating your company might just be the first step in your business journey.

Car Wash Service Provider ... Subscription Business

スレッド
Car Wash Service Provider ......
you live in the Seattle area, you’ve probably seen a Brown Bear Car Wash. It’s one of the most popular car wash services in the region — and a big part of its success comes from one smart idea: monthly subscription pricing.
 
For a flat monthly fee, customers can wash their car as often as they like. No need to think about it or pay each time. That simple model has turned Brown Bear into a local favorite and a steady business.
 
But this strategy isn’t just for car washes. Subscription models can be applied to many businesses — and more companies should take note.

We replaced our fence today.
We have contracted a company to replace our north side fence. It came out really nice. The material they used was a cedar and it should last easily 10 to 15 years. We contacted the same company for the south side of our yard.

Morning Traffic ... Seattle Downtown

スレッド
Morning Traffic ... Seattle Down...
The traffic in Seattle downtown in the morning is very very bad this morning. I had a doctors appointment at the Virginia Mason downtown Seattle at 8:45. It usually takes 15 to 20 minutes to get to the Virginia Mason from my house but this morning it took almost 40 minutes. I just lied that check in five minutes before the appointment. I'm glad I made it.

Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. 340 Overthinking Holds You Back

スレッド
Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. ...

Overthinking Holds You Back

This is impossible. No one will buy this. It's too hard to make. The market research shows poor results. Whenever we try to move forward with something, negative thoughts often overwhelm us.

But in reality, you never know what’ll happen until you actually try. Even ideas perfect in theory can fail; on the other hand, ideas that seem impossible on paper sometimes succeed for unexpected reasons.

We often try to figure everything out in our heads. But in the real world, sometimes taking action is the only way we learn. Being proactive and fast are crucial, especially in business. Rather than overthinking and staying stuck, take the first step–even if it’s risky.

Of course, you don't have to jump in recklessly. You need to manage risks and have some minimal preparation, but if you're always focused on reasons not to act, you'll keep missing opportunities.

Just do it. If what you’re doing isn't working, change it and try again.
The only way to succeed is by moving forward, one step at a time.

You send me an email using a Hotmail account.

スレッド
Do you trust this company? Do you trust this company?
You send me an email using a Hotmail account.
 
Using free email services like Hotmail, Gmail, or YahooMail for business can send the wrong message to potential customers. Here’s what many people may assume about your business:
 
Negative Perceptions:
 
Unprofessional Image
Using a personal email (like yourname@gmail.com) can make your business seem small, temporary, or even unreliable.
 
Lack of Credibility
Customers may question whether you're a legitimate company. They might wonder: “Why don’t they have their own domain?”
 
Security Concerns
Free email providers may raise concerns about data security and privacy, especially if you're handling sensitive or confidential information.
 
Poor Branding
You're missing a chance to reinforce your brand every time you send an email. A custom domain email (yourname@yourcompany.com) builds recognition and trust.
 
What You Should Do Instead:
 
Get a custom domain and a business-class email service. It shows:
 
You're established and serious.
 
You care about your professional image.
 
You prioritize security and organization.
 
Would you trust a lawyer, consultant, or retailer using @hotmail.com? Probably not. The same applies to your business.
 
Need help setting up a branded email? PSPINC’s Dreamersi Web & Email Hosting provides professional email services with your own domain — affordable and secure.
