Theme for February 8th: 'There is no such thing as "absolute"'

Today's page quietly teaches us
'not to limit your possibilities with the word "absolute"'
and
'to place the axis of success on a way of life that is appreciated by others'
quietly.

Overview

Getters Iida describes the essence of happiness and success as
'doing things you love that make others happy'
he says.

Furthermore, he leaves us with the following strong messages:

• Do not do work that will not be appreciated.

• Do not live a life that does not bring joy to others.

• Do not live a life where people would not think to 'repay your kindness.'

Furthermore, he shows an attitude of not being swayed by words like 'absolutely impossible' or 'absolutely difficult,' stating:

This is the attitude he shows.

Points (A life that is appreciated and letting go of 'absolute')

● Choose work and a way of life that is appreciated

True success and happiness lie on the extension of actions that lead to someone's
smiles and joy.

● Ways of interacting that make people want to 'repay your kindness'

Relationships where people think, 'I want to help you again' or 'I want to repay you someday' are life's treasures. That, in turn,

supports your own luck.

● Do not believe 'absolutely impossible' at face value

People's judgments of what is "impossible" are surprisingly unreliable.
Rather,it is those who continue to take on challenges that others call "impossible" who find
collaborators and new developments emerging—
that is the perspective being shared.

Regarding your current work or outreach,

decide on just oneaction to strengthen that area.(e.g., +α service improvements, a word of thanks, etc.)

Identify onechallengeyou have arbitrarily blocked off, and
write down thefirst three stepsto achieve it.
(e.g., research / go meet someone / start studying... etc.)
