쌤통이다

쌤통이다 뭐예요? 
What is 쌤통? 

The word "쌤통" means the feeling of delight in someone's misfortune or failure.

In fact, there is a technical term for this in psychology.
Schadenfreude. 
"Schadenfreude" is a German word that refers to the experience of pleasure or joy that comes from witnessing or learning about others’ misfortune.

"Especially, when someone I am jealous of makes a mistake and stumbles in front of others, I find myself secretly happy."
When you feel this, you can say 쌤통이다. 

But be careful!
it is generally considered a negative emotion so you should not express that emotion inside out. 

Don’t forget this!
쌤통이다.

According to LinkedIn's 2023 Workplace Learning Report, a staggering 94% of employees feel the need to continuously learn and adapt to thrive in their careers. This underscores the critical importance of proactive measures to mitigate job insecurity.

Business coaching is a powerful tool to deal with these challenges and enhance job security. By providing personalized guidance and support, business coaches help individuals develop the needed skills, mindset, and strategies.

A Harvard Business Review study found that employees with access to coaching are 87% more likely to achieve their goals. Coaches can identify skill gaps and create tailored development plans to enhance employability. By acquiring new skills and competencies, individuals become more adaptable and valuable to employers.

A clear career path is essential for job security. Coaches can assist in defining career goals and creating a roadmap to achieve them. 

LinkedIn data reveals that professionals with clear career paths are 30% more likely to be satisfied with their jobs.

Coaches offer mentorship and support, providing guidance on navigating organizational changes, building relationships, and overcoming challenges. 

A recent LinkedIn survey reported that 72% of employees believe mentorship is crucial for career advancement.

Through coaching, individuals can develop resilience, the ability to bounce back from setbacks and adapt to change. 

A study published in the Journal of Management found that resilient employees are less likely to experience job insecurity.

Coaches help individuals understand their strengths, weaknesses, values, and motivations. This self-awareness empowers them to make informed career decisions. 

LinkedIn data shows that employees with strong self-awareness are more likely to secure promotions and higher salaries.


A Gallup study found that engaged employees are 43% less likely to leave their jobs.

Today's topic is "Getting busier Japanese in December".  Most of Japanese say "I'm busy! I'm busy!" in December. Why so specially busy for Japanese in December? I'm going to talk about it today. 
*************************************************
日本の12月は　忙しいです。
12月のことを昔の暦で師走（しはす）と言います。これは　先生が走るくらい忙しいという意味です。走るというだけでも、なんだか忙しそうですよね。
でも、どうして12月が　そんなに忙しいのでしょうか。
個人的には、年賀状を書いたり、大掃除をしたりする上に、クリスマスパーティ―や、忘年会などがあります。　私も以前は　年賀状を100枚ぐらい書いていました。デザインや宛名書きをパソコンで作ってしまえば簡単です。でも、それでは味気ないような気がして、私は、宛名と短いメッセージは手書きで書いています。大掃除では、普段しないところまで　ていねいにするので時間がかかって、大変です。　平日の昼間は仕事なので、週末にこれらのことをすべてしなければなりません。
忘年会は「1年間いろいろおつかれさま～」という気持ちで、飲んだり食べたりする会です。　会社で働いていたころは、この忘年会が12月に2，3回はありました。社内の人との忘年会、取引先の方たちとの忘年会、そして、親しい友人だけでする忘年会です。おいしいものが食べられるのはいいけれど、結構　気を遣うことも多かったです。そのため、忘年会のあとに体調を崩すことも何回かありました。
一般的に、会社では、今している仕事を翌年にまで持ち越さないようにするとか、逆に年明けすぐにスタートできるように準備するなどがあります。　12月末を1年の区切り（くぎり）として考える習慣のようなものが、私たちをより忙しくさせるのだと思います。今まで溜めていたことを終わらせようとすることで業務が増えると、周りの人の仕事も増えてしまう。それがどんどん他のところにも伝染していくんですね。そして、「忙しい」「忙しい」と走り回る人が増えていくという・・・悪循環のようなものです。
私は、今　会社で働いていないので、こういう忙しさはありませんが、それでも
「部屋を年内に片づけなくちゃ！」「窓ふき、庭の手入れ、部屋の掃除もしなくちゃ！」「年賀状はどうしよう？」など　頭の中は大忙しです。　今日はもう12月14日。お正月まであと17日しかありませんが、まだ　何もしていません！ああ、忙しい！どうしよう！
