Freedom and Independence
People in the middle are not enjoying the freedom they are given, but are choosing for themselves a harsh environment that requires constant independence. That's how I feel.
I googled [Cybozu freedom, independence] and this article came up at the top. Aono: "Speaking of which, Cybozu is often referred to as an "employee-friendly company. But that's not true. There are OPTIONS because it is really a very LIABILITY heavy thing. It encourages independence, and for those who aren't independent, it can be painful." I think it's more self-control than independence. It's okay to rely on others (even if you are not independent). As long as you are autonomous in making decisions, setting goals, getting up in the morning, and so on. If you are able to "choose the action of relying on others with preparedness," that may also be called independence. A person who has many appropriate dependence destinations is supple, lol. The article says that "self-reliance" does not mean "not being dependent!
