[Digital Nomad Entrepreneurship] Helping others = Earning the first pot of gold? The successful mentality of "Low-key Entrepreneurship: Any ordinary person can find his own business value in the process of Helping others"

從數位遊牧到創業：如何低調贏得第一桶金

Hi! How are you today? Gilly wants to share a book today： Yuichi Tanaka "Low-key Entrepreneurship: Any ordinary person can find his own business value in the process of helping others".

This is the second time Jili has read a book written by a Japanese writer. On the night of reading, she was fortunate that she picked up the book in the pile of books around her. In the dead of night, she felt the pragmatic and low-key power quietly conveyed by Yuichi Tanaka in the book "Low-key Entrepreneurship."

數位遊牧：低調創業，平凡中見非凡

「大多數人最初都想從推廣自己開始，所以才會失敗。假使從支援他人起步，你會有更精深的經驗，人脈也會變得更廣，更能得到機會。」－作者/田中佑 ，《低調創業》

在這個人人都想成名的年代，田中佑一提出了與主流創業方式不同的觀點。這本書以田中佑一自身的經驗與客戶的反饋，帶領大家如何在平凡中創造出自己的路。

「藉由支援某個人來賺錢，是一種門檻極低、沒有風險的嶄新工作型態。 所謂支援，就是以無名英雄、配角的身份去扶持主角的協助者。」－作者/田中佑 ，《低調創業》

其實很多時候，在這個資訊爆炸、知識容易取得的時代裡，反而讓人產生更多的困惑與不知所措。而當大家看著社群媒體、新聞不停地傳遞著成功的樣板模式，使大家趨之若鶩的仿效同樣的創業軌跡，卻忘記了，或許這些成功者只是倖存者偏誤的例子。

我們是否能先從執行生活中的一件事情就好，而他不需要是個很艱困且需要耗費心思的任務。或許是幫助自己的家人規劃一個下午微旅行的行程？甚至是很久想整理的房間，或許安排今天用10分鐘的時間，先整理一小區塊？明天再花10分鐘整理另一個區塊？

The spirit mentioned in the book "Low-key Entrepreneurship" is those things that we think are ordinary, but they are actually small achievements that accumulate into a great success. The motivation to help others also makes one feel more mission-oriented, and the object of service is moved by one's own efforts.

從數位遊牧者的視角：無名英雄，成就他人也能賺錢

「只有客人的煩惱與『做不到某件事』的負面情緒，才能轉換成你的金錢收入，光有證照無法解決負面的情感。 只要有證照就能得到工作，只是單純的自以為是。」－作者/田中佑 ，《低調創業》

On the other hand, in the current social phenomenon, due to a practice, academic qualifications and licenses are the same as tickets to entry, and everyone is working hard to obtain them, but in fact, do these really represent everything?

Suppose you have planted a few potted plants, but you haven't been able to plant them well. If there are two candidates in real life who can help you bring potted plants back to life: one is a well-known botanist, and the other is a kind neighbor aunt. She has been a gardener for several years and has taken good care of her garden after retirement., Who would you choose to assist you?

田中佑一在《低調創業》所創立的精神其實本質就是在著重於產品與服務本身。這反而能避免一些以往創業大家所認知的高度風險，而是從微小的服務著手，也是一種透過服務更清楚的認識自己，並踏實的建立起己身能力與技術的護城河。

This is also very similar to Gilly's spirit. She accompanies everyone in a low-key and quiet manner. At the important moment when Gilly is needed, she feels the sense of trust and strength that comes from her assistance. In our lives and careers, this low-key and firm attitude tends to guide us to success more permanently.

不燒錢也能創業：數位遊牧的低風險創業模式

I really like the author Yuichi Tanaka's division of the definition of "gorgeous entrepreneurship" and "low-key entrepreneurship" in the book "Low-key Entrepreneurship".

人們常常會陷入一個傳統的想法既定模式。如果說要創業，身邊大部分的人應該都會想像著要準備大筆資金、向銀行貸款、準備企劃書、尋找店面、徵求員工⋯⋯等。於是這種「華麗創業」模式通常也伴隨著高風險，因此經常聽到開店撐不過一段時間倒閉之類的狀況。

閱讀《低調創業》的過程，作者 田中佑一在書中散發出的個人特質，除了他務實地為讀者分析方向與策略之外，他還傳遞出一個很重要的精神，除了執行力，還要反思在執行這項任務過後，自己是否從中學習到任何經驗。

And this echoes the initial spirit of Jili's website-sharing the experience of practicing goals step by step through books and learning channels, hoping to maximize the value through limited resources. For friends who want to start a digital nomad or freelance, this book is undoubtedly a beacon, guiding how to realize their dreams at low cost.

無私心，才能快速成長：數位遊牧創業中的真實心法

田中佑一在《低調創業》分享著如何以成就微小的事業，讓自己一步一步茁壯起來。作者曾經在創業初期，提供免費的服務，並適切的解決客戶的問題，累積在客戶心中的信用額度，而漸漸的為自己建造口碑與價值。

而作者 田中佑一在《低調創業》中，很常提到，要支援自己喜歡的人，想到要協助這個人就會感到開心，而客戶也會因此體會到你的用心而受感動。

Not only the presentation of successful cases, Yuichi Tanaka also describes how to learn from failures. It's not so much that "Low-key Entrepreneurship" is a book about entrepreneurship. He is more like an attitude of living and doing things.

吉莉結語：數位遊牧創業，不必非得成為巨人，學會在生活中找到創業的力量

田中佑一的《低調創業》讓我們了解，創業之路不必充滿噓頭與風險。我們可以嘗試以身邊現有的資源與現有的人脈，開始執行。正如吉莉低調陪伴在我們身邊，這本書教會我們如何穩步前行，以智慧和策略在創業的旅途上走得更遠。非常推薦 田中佑一的《低調創業》，書中引導我從嘗試找尋各種創業方向的一團混沌中，具體的建構出自己未來的方向與策略。
