Nathan's interview on the TV broadcast of The Ice

Nathan's supporting team JPN on Instagram: "THE ICEはもう懐かしい夏の思い出になってしまいましたね！. ご覧になっているとはおもいますが、ネイサンに佳菜子さんがインタビューして大学のことや本を書いたきっかけ、THE ICEに関する思いなどを聞いています❣️（吹き替えはやめてほしいかったですね！）. スケート⛸️は少しずつミリ単位で学ぶかんじだけれど、大学📖では知らないことが沢山あり過ぎて日々キロ単位で学んでいる！というところが本当に印象的です

Ms. Miki Hirai, an acclaimed interpreter and a former figure skater herself, wrote an essay about her experience when she acted as a moderator/interpreter for fan meeting with Nathan after his book was published in Japan. At the very end of the meeting, Ms. Hirai asked Nathan as "We all go through a lot of ups and downs in our lives, but do you have any advice?" and what Nathan told really impressed the participants as many of them tweeted (posted) later "From now on, I try to follow his advice," "I will try to do what Nathan said before going to bed."

I was not at the meeting so I was wondering about what his response was. Then I found that Ms. Hirai kindly wrote up what Nathan said to her question in English in her essay, so if you scroll down the page on this link you can find his entire response.

Here's a part of his response:

"...before I go to bed think about the best thing that happened to me that day on the ice.(snip)

I think it is really easy for people to think oh what were the things that didn’t go well, what were the things I could do better, what were the things that made me feel upset or unhappy and then we start thinking that and it makes us more and more unhappy.

Whereas in his (his mental coach Eric) view was look back on the thing that made me the happiest and it could be somethings really small like you know, “I made someone smile today” or like “I made a new friend today ” or something like that. And just imagine what did that feel like and why did that make me happy and think about that right before you go to sleep and then usually you go to sleep much happier and that’s something that has been very helpful for me."
