The Man Behind Ohtani's Chart
Has a Message for You

The Man Behind Ohtani's Chart
Has a Message for You

Takashi Harada has trained over 280,000 people using this method — from Olympic athletes to corporate executives.

”A Harvard Business School professor studied my method and taught it to 800 students.

I was told that every single one of them — without being told — chose to include Karma and Personality in their own charts.


That told me something. People already know, deep down, that these two things matter.”

— Takashi Harada,
The Creator of Open Window 64 (Mandala) chart

Everyone Knows That Chart.

Almost Nobody Understands It.

You've probably seen it — the 9×9 grid that went viral.

Sports analysts talked about Speed. Control. Breaking Balls. The business media talked about the goal-setting system.


But they all stopped at the surface.

Here's what they missed:

Here's what they missed:

Ohtani didn't just train his body. He trained his karma.
He didn't just sharpen his skills. He built his Personality.
"Pick up trash" wasn't a quirky habit. It was a strategy.

Ohtani believed you could train your luck the same way you train your fastball. By picking up trash, greeting people, being someone others want to root for — he was deliberately building karma, box by box. That's not superstition. That's a system.

The creator of this chart — Takashi Harada — has a name for what Ohtani was doing. And once you understand it, you'll never look at goals the same way.

The Coach Who Turned Failing Schools
into Champions

"From a School Nobody Believed In — to 13 National Championships"

Takashi Harada wasn't always famous. He started as a track and field coach at a struggling junior high school in Osaka — the kind of school nobody expected anything from. Using the Open Window 64 Method, his students won 13 national championships.

What happened next:

the Wall Street Journal ran a feature on the method (September 2018)

Harvard Business School published a case study — taught to 800+ students

Over 90,000 people across Japan trained in the Harada Method

The baseball player who used it in high school became a 4× MVP

Recorded Specifically for a U.S. Audience

This isn't a translation of a Japanese seminar. Harada recorded this from scratch, specifically for a U.S. audience.
