(ini gw ambil dari interviewnya!)
Those who saw my concert feel various things. They often say that who has hit on such things: throwing shocking pictures not yet open to other place onto the screen, animal costumes coming on stage unexpectedly, and I flying up at the ending. I say, "that’s my idea," and they are surprised.
When I talked about those things to my staffs, they all said, "It’s impossible," in every respect: budget, time, and grounds. But I said, "It’s possible." Curiously, I win in the end when I have stronger conviction than those who say, "It’s impossible."
I would like to challenge various things. For example, I expanded the register of my voice than before because I wanted to make songs as I like, not limited by it. My register was so narrow and voice was so low that I thought my voice was not for a vocalist. But I made up my mind to be a vocalist, and I wouldn’t change the song because it is out of my voice. So, I expanded my voice higher and higher, lower and lower. Of course, It couldn’t make in one or two days, I trained. I always want to look forward, look upward. When I am requested, I want to reply it. I challenge new things, that makes me feel the feeling I’m alive.
"I had negative thinking way in the past. The chance I changed was…"
I didn’t have the thinking way like this. I was decadent, destructive, a person who had very negative thinking way until I was 19 years old. I sometimes looked the backside of things, saying "That’s not right." At the age of 20, I met a man, and the thinking way of mine has changed…(Jug: Gackt used to mention about this man in my SG-Interview:English 2 "10 Questions with Gackt" at No.9)
Those days, in Kyoto, I played in a rock band, but was mainly in the bar and restaurant business. The man, he was 10 years older than I. At first, I disliked him. His word was a fair argument, but disagreeable. But I couldn’t help being attracted to him. Although I disliked him, why am I attracted to him…? It’s because he was cool. I felt that he lived purely. He lives his life on his own feet. Compared with him, I don’t walk. I’m stopping, make to walked, or always look downward, I’m not alive…
Then, what should I do? Anyway, I determined to be with him, get what he’s thinking, and feel his thinking way… So, I was always with him. I always said the word "But,…" because I had negative thinking way. What he said was new for me, and I felt his power strongly.
"The question ‘What is common to the successful person?’ I had answered…"
One day, I consulted him about what I was worried about. I liked a girl very much, she liked me too, but we had to be separated for some reasons. I was emotionally unstable. I drove a car, a motorbike, at terrific speed, couldn’t sleep at night, behaving violently, like mad… Under such a condition, there were many other problems, I went to see him after all.
I’m worried about these things, thinking to do this way. But there’re some problems, I’m unable to decide, and thinking "what should I do…" I was thinking about it seriously, worried about it, so I expected him to answer as well as he could.
Then, he laughed, guffawed, "hahaha…" I was taken aback. I thought that I’m serious… I was angry, you know. "Why are you laughing!?" Then, he said, "You’re funny." "Why?" "If you want to do, you should do it, if you don’t, you don’t need to do it. Why are you saying over and over "I want to do" and "I don’t want to do"? You don’t want to solve your problems. You only want to be worried."
I was very shocked when I heard it. Certainly, that’s right. And he said naturally, "Some go forward, others don’t. Do you know the difference of them? Why can’t the latter move, why are they worried over and over? It’s simple. It is because they are quick to think. Those who accomplish things don’t think, they are quick to move. You have your head not to be worried. We have it to think up device to get over problems we face with ."
And there are various successful men, upright men under different business. He asked me "What do you think they have in common?" I answered all I hit on, "social position, money…" He said "No." His answer was "It’s their thinking way. One thinking way decides one’s life. Now, what you think in this moment, that all makes your life."
The moment I heard that, I was really awakened to the truth. The important thing is, anyway, first, to move into action, and to receive the consequence. When I made a bad one, whether I can think up device to bring it to better side, at that point, the life changes.
After then, my talking way changed too. I became to be a man of a posteriori reasoning about things. I don’t dawdle talking. At the beginning, I decided what I would like to do, and talk. What is necessary to accomplish what I would like to do? To get the necessaries, move into act at once. My talking way became the other way around. After one year, the negative thinking way in me died out. So, now, I want those who are worried to take notice of it.
I can say all of negative thinking ways. When I was a child, I was so weak that they were anxious about how long would I live. I was mentally unbalanced. At age 7 I was nearly drowned in the sea, after that, I’m able to see ghosts. At age 10 I became apt to get excited, couldn’t able to control myself, I believed that I was sick, causeless sickness…
"No one helps me," became mischievous, acted destructively. Break up, everything. The mischievous come together. But I thought they did nothing but escape. It’s futile. And I hate myself, them; then keeping distance from them, being alone.
"I thought many things; "For what am I alive?" "Where will I go after my death?"
But we can’t live if we are thinking such a thing. Why? It’s because we’re weak. At the present times, nobody tells us how to live. I happened to meet the person who told me how to live. But it was just a chance. All touch him couldn’t learn. Although there are many chances around, most people won’t see it, or aren’t aware of it because they thought they have nothing to do with it.
Those who are worried about something sometimes consult me, and I talk about my experience. And I say,"Anyway, don’t be worried, do it." Gackt, used to be all negative, was able to change. "daijobu, kitto dekiru yo" te ne~.
