”WISDOM OF FOOLS” Bringing Excite-tainment to the World

Are Humans “Fools”?

70億人をワクワクさせる「バカの知恵」

Even when we make painful mistakes, we eventually forget about them and end up repeating the same mistakes all over again. And when we set goals for ourselves, the action alone seems to satisfy us enough to never act on them. Then, eventually, we end up setting similar goals all over again. Humans are naturally forgetful and, if we are not careful, easily swayed by our surroundings. Mobcast’s goal is to bring excite-tainment to people all over the world. It is an extremely ambitious goal and not one that is easily achieved. In order to achieve a goal like this, “doing your best” just isn’t enough. We need a thoroughly structured plan. To do this, we must first acknowledge the fact that we are “fools.” Admitting that we are “fools” is the first step to creating the right environment in preparation for achieving the goal of “bringing excite-tainment to the world.”
