That was when I encountered Eikei University of Hiroshima. As I learned more about the university, I was drawn not only to its English education but also to the many opportunities it offers to engage practically with society<\/a>. I have always enjoyed presenting in front of others and expressing my ideas, so this environment felt immensely appealing. The convenience of living in Hiroshima<\/a> and the excitement of studying at a new university also pushed me forward. I felt strongly that \u201cthere is no other university like this\u2014truly one of a kind,\u201d<\/em> and I became increasingly eager to challenge myself in this environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When I entered Eikei University of Hiroshima, I held vague dreams such as \u201cI want to start a business\u201d<\/em> or \u201cI want to make an impact on society.\u201d<\/em> Over the past four years, however, those aspirations have evolved considerably. I came to feel that what matters more than defining a single dream is the continuous process of reflecting on and pursuing my personal goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After enrollment, I felt a significant\u2014both positive and challenging\u2014gap between my expectations and reality. Some students around me were highly ambitious, while others were not. At first glance, this difference in motivation might seem negative. However, being in an environment with diverse levels of drive compelled me to question myself: My perspective on entrepreneurship<\/a>, in particular, underwent a major shift. By considering risks and returns more realistically, I realized that starting a business is not the only path. I came to understand that one can also make an impact as a member of an organization that shares the same mission. This shift was made possible through deep self-reflection and the many insights I gained from conversations with professors and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I also learned that \u201cthere is no need to force yourself to find a big dream.\u201d<\/em> What\u2019s important is to stay true to what you aim for at each point in your life. Once you achieve one goal, another naturally emerges. I now see this cycle as a positive and natural part of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whenever someone asks, \u201cWhich class influenced you the most?\u201d<\/em> I find it difficult to choose just one. That is because most classes at EUH don\u2019t end with input alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Project-Based Learning (PBL) <\/a>and active learning<\/a>\u2013oriented courses, students are constantly expected to construct their ideas logically and communicate them to others. Thinking, creating, speaking, conveying\u2014repeating this cycle on a daily basis naturally strengthened my skills and mindset for presenting in front of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Currently, I am participating in an internship in a real business setting, and I am convinced that these experiences are helping me immensely. \u201cHow can I communicate in a way that resonates with the other person?\u201d<\/em> \u201cWhat should I say from my current standpoint?\u201d<\/em>\u2014I can naturally practice these without consciously thinking about them. This is the result of four years of intensive output. Every time someone tells me, \u201cYou\u2019re good at explaining things,\u201d<\/em> I am reminded that every class has shaped who I am today. These experiences made my university life quite different from that of ordinary students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My goal for the future is to become someone who can contribute to strengthening Japan\u2019s economic power. As Japan faces declining birthrates and an aging population, increasing the productivity of each individual is crucial for maintaining a sustainable society. I believe that creating economic impact and raising income levels will provide a stronger foundation for people\u2019s lives and lead to greater emotional well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/eikei.ac.jp\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/03\/11A4446-1024x683.jpg\")
