Don't Underestimate Miracles!
"Miracles only descend upon those who never give up until the very end!"
—What passionate words.
In a shonen manga,
this is where the protagonist stands up.
A battered body.
Flowing blood.
The voices of friends.
A desperate situation.
And then,
"It's not over yet!"
BOOM!!!
A miracle happens.
It's the best.
But in reality, I,
go home before a miracle happens.
I made a mistake at work.
"It's okay, a miracle will happen from here!"
No,
it won't.
I just get scolded as usual.
I bought a lottery ticket.
"If you don't give up until the end, miracles will happen!"
It didn't win.
300 yen.
The end.
Love.
"If you don't give up, they'll turn to look at you someday!"
They don't turn to look.
If anything,
they keep a little distance.
In life,
before a miracle can happen,
the final boss named reality is just too strong.
But,
I don't intend to make fun of this saying.
Actually,
I quite like this kind of hot-blooded theory.
Because,
miracles,
don't come to those who do nothing.
That is because they rarely happen.
Even in sports,
it is precisely because you didn't give up until the end,
that a chance for a comeback is born.
Even in studies,
it is precisely because you kept at it until the end,
that the possibility of passing is born.
Even in work,
it is precisely because you tried many times,
that things sometimes go well.
In other words,
a miracle is not,
"a bonus that suddenly falls from the sky even though you did nothing."
It is not that.
**Only those who persist until the end,
can reach the place,
"where a miracle might happen."**
I truly believe this is the case.
However,
from here on is,
This is a crucial point for the invincible working professional.
Don't believe in miracles too much.
It is also dangerous to dismiss everything with,
"Never give up until the very end!"
as a catch-all solution.
An obviously toxic company.
Getting yelled at every day.
Getting contacted even on days off.
Not feeling rested even after sleeping.
Even so,
"Someday a miracle will happen and this company will become a good one!"
……
It's faster to just change jobs.
A job that clearly doesn't suit you.
It's painful no matter how many years you do it.
Thinking every day that you're not cut out for it.
Even so,
"If I don't give up, a miracle will...!"
……
No,
There is also the option of changing direction.
In life,
there are times when "not giving up" is important,
and times when you need the "courage to give up."
If you get this wrong,
you won't be a passionate protagonist,
but just a corporate drone who prides themselves on endurance.become.
That is why I
would like to define a miracle like this.
A miracle is
not something that happens
only to those who never gave up until the end.
However,
it is also something that
only has the possibility of happening to those who never gave up until the end.
Therefore,
I will try.
I will try one more time.
If I fail,
I will try again.
If that still doesn't work,
go to sleep for a while.
And then,
leave it to tomorrow's me.
Even in hot-blooded manga,
the protagonist sleeps for at least one night.
Probably.
Get back up as many times as it takes.
Don't give up until the very end.
Don't just wait for a miracle.
Walk there yourself, to the point where it wouldn't be strange for a miracle to happen.
And then,
if you've walked that far and nothing happens—
let's go home for today.
Life is long.
You can just try again tomorrow.
Don't underestimate miracles.
Miracles,
they only descend upon those who didn't give up until the very end!
……However,
You can give up on leaving on time and just go home.
That is not a miracle.
It is a right.
