  • Before My Willpower Runs Out

    After reading a few self-development books,
    I noticed something they all repeat.

    Willpower gets depleted.

    So the important things
    should be finished
    before it runs out.

    Then why
    have I been making my schedules
    as if that didn’t matter at all?

    Maybe
    it wasn’t that I lacked willpower.
    Maybe
    I just placed my time in the wrong order.

    The things I always postpone,
    and even the new things I hesitate to begin—
    today,
    I move them
    to the morning.
  • Why I Write in a Second Language

    English is not my native language.
    AI helps translate what I write. Does it show?

    Even if it does, it can’t be helped. It doesn’t change where I come from.

    So why do I write in English?

    Because I love the distance that a second language gives me.
  • 2026.02.15 -spider

    When I was very young,
    there was a huge spider
    and an elaborate web
    in my grandmother’s yard.
    I broke it with a tree branch.

    Only as an adult do I think about it.
    What happened to the spider
    who lost its home that day?
    Did it build another one?

    I have lost many things too.
    But I can build again.
  • Saying “I Have the Will” Out Loud

    I saw a video saying that
    simply saying “I have the will” out loud can help.

    I tried it on the treadmill.
    I was already tired,
    but when I said,
    “I have the will to lose weight,”

    I was able to walk a little longer.
  • The Cycle of Movement and Confidence

    When I move,
    my confidence grows.

    When my confidence grows,
    I feel better.

    That better feeling
    makes me move again.

    I want to step into
    this cycle.
  • Can You Tell Me the Benefits of Thinking a Lot?

    I didn’t know this about myself, but I think a lot.

    I watch movies carefully. I read books slowly. Maybe the creators would be happy.

    And I spend a long time thinking about them.

    The downside is obvious. It takes too much time.

    And I’m still looking for the upside.

  • Why My Choices Feel Smaller as I Get Older

    When I was younger,
    I thought I had many paths to choose from.

    As I got older,
    it felt like those options became fewer.

    But that’s strange.

    I have more experiences now. More skills. More things I’ve survived.

    So why does it feel like I have less to choose from?

    Maybe my fear has grown.


  • What Walter Mitty Taught Me About Reality and Imagination

    Have you watched The Secret Life of Walter Mitty?


    I liked this movie because Walter’s reality became far more beautiful than his imagination.


    Could he have imagined that he would run for so long, ride a skateboard with a volcano behind him, fall into the ocean where sharks live, or become the last photograph on a magazine cover?


    Probably not.


    Imagination is limited to what we already know.
    Reality isn’t.
    That’s why, sometimes, reality turns out to be more beautiful than imagination.

  • Why I Want to Be Seen but Also Want to Hide

    Sometimes I want to be seen by no one.
    Other times, I want many people to see me.

    This contradiction isn’t really a contradiction.

    The truth is,
    I never wanted to be invisible.
    I was just afraid of being judged.

    Now there’s no contradiction.
    And no lie.
  • Reality Is More Beautiful Than Imagination

    Reality has no choice but to be more beautiful than imagination.

    My imagination is made only of what already exists in my head.

    If someone asked me to imagine the most amazing car,

    I would probably combine

    the best features I know,

    the most beautiful colors I’ve seen,

    and the shapes I already find cool.

    But reality is different.

    In reality, things I never imagined appear.

    If I move, if I step outside my head,

    I might see something I never imagined.

    World,

    show me something I never imagined.
