[Machine Translation] A book that is immediately useful will soon become useless. Don't get me wrong, immediately useful books quickly become useless. Many books are read once and that's it. More important are books that are not likely to be useful right away. Even if we speak of reading in one breath, we should distinguish between these two types of books. Reading practical and self-help books about work is fine, but we should not be biased toward only those. If possible, take the time to read books that may not seem useful at first glance. It will slowly become useful later on. In the long run, I think this is very important.
すぐに役に立つ本はすぐに役に立たなくなる。誤解を恐れずに言えば、すぐに役に立つ本はすぐに役に立たなくなってしまいます。一度読んだらそれで終わりという本が多いのです。それよりも大事なのは、すぐには役に立ちそうもない本です。一口に読書と言っても、この二つは区別して考えた方がいい。仕事に関する実用書や自己啓発本を読むこともいいですが、そればかりに偏らないようにしたい。できれば、一見役に立たないと思えるような本をじっくり読んでみる。それが後になってじわじわと役に立ってくる。長い目で見たとき、それが非常に大切なことではないかと思っています。
