Hey, Life Explorers!
It’s an awesome Friday, which is when I get to write to you.
This weekend is the third one in December. What do you think?
Nothing comes to mind? That’s good or not good.
If you’re busy with what you do and focus on, you might not need to check the calendar so often. It’s just the time for you to go with the flow.
However, if you’re not busy with what you think you have to do now, then you might want to take a look at where you are now in the year.
We just have two more weeks to go, which means we’re approaching the deadline for what we set for New Year’s resolutions at the beginning of the year.
You didn’t make any New Year’s resolutions? Cool! Then, you’re not going to fail to achieve them because you don’t have goals. But is that really what you want? No goals and no fails?
If we, as a parent or a future parent, would want to get rid of all the dangerous obstacles for our kids, we would have to have them stay at home every single day. Again, is that truly what we want for our kids?
We want our kids to explore the world, even if the world is dangerous, and grow to their full potential. I think we should think of ourselves the same way.
We’ve got to grow and develop ourselves, no matter what circumstances we have and even if there exist failures along the way.
You might not want to be pushed to do that, but it’s well worth giving it your thought for a while at this time of the year.
If you haven’t done much meaningful to you until now, set a two week goal so you can have another chance to achieve something good within this year.
If you think you’ve been running fast up until this point, just turn your head around and see if you can go any faster for the best performance, like a marathon runner pouring their last bit of energy getting closer to the finish
line.
때로는 물을 마시기도 하고 몸과 마음을 다스리며 천천히 걸어야 하지만, 12월의 중반을 지나가는 지금이 쉬어가는 시점은 아닐 것입니다.
내가 몇 등으로 달리고 있든 피니쉬 라인으로 향하는 마라톤 선수처럼 온 힘을 다해 2018년의 매듭을 지어야 하는 시점입니다.
멋진 2019년은 2019년에 시작되는 것이 아니라 지금부터 시작됩니다. 2018년 알차게 마무리하시고, 멋진 2019년 맞으시기 바랍니다.
