成澤俊輔：人は言ったことではなく、やったことについてくる
周囲の人間から求められる「成澤俊輔」、つまり周囲の人間の期待から生まれた「なりたい自分」になることを目指していた成澤俊輔は、目が見えないからこそ「言葉」を意識して生きてきた。
しかし、多くの人からタグ付けされるようになると、他者の成澤俊輔像に縛られない、「在りたい自分」を模索するようになった。
経営していた会社を手放し、キックボクシングやスケートボード、海外への単身渡航など、なりたい自分に抗うように沢山の挑戦をしていく中で、
「人は言ったことではなく、やったことについてくる」ということに気付く。
脱言語化を宣言し、肩書にも縛られなくなった彼が語るものとはなにか。
NARISAWA Shunsuke :
People follow what you do, not what you say
NARISAWA Shunsuke, who was aiming to become "The NARISAWA Shunsuke" that is sought after by the people around him, in other words, the "self he wants to be" born of the people around him.
Because he is blind, he has lived his life with an awareness of "words".
However, as he began to be tagged by many people, he began to search for the "self he wanted to be" that was not bound by the image of Shunsuke Narisawa created by others.
He gave up the company he was running, did kickboxing, skateboarded, and traveled abroad by himself, taking on many challenges to resist the person he wanted to be.
He realized that "people follow what you do, not what you say.
Now that he is no longer bound by titles and has declared that he is de-verbalised,
What does he have to say?
