Olympic Shared Targets

Why don`t you gear your goal setting into the timeline

toward Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics, Japan?

Commemorating Tokyo`s successful bid to host the 2020

Olympics and Paralympics, the writer will start out

here and now a new corner on Banzai 2020 titled

“ Olympic Shared Targets” soliciting everybody to share

your dreams with the goal setting into the timeline

toward Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics, Japan.

The writer sincerely hopes this corner will help the joy

of participation surging up within us and all in order to

deepen the importance of bona fide `bond` and hospitality

`o-motenashi ` on the internet as well as the understanding of

Olympism as carried below:

It is a philosophy of life, exalting and combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, will and mind. Blending sport with culture and education, Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles. The goal of the Olympic Movement is to contribute to building a peaceful and better world by educating youth through sport practiced without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play.
