【Why Putting Things into Words Makes Them Clear】 Why Verbalizing Increases the Resolution of Your Thinking
Have you ever had a moment while talking to someone where you thought,
“Yes, exactly!”
that?
When you couldn't explain something well yourself, or when you couldn't find the right words, someone else puts it into words for you.
At that moment,
you sometimes realize yourself, “Oh, so that’s what I was thinking.”
This is
the moment the resolution of your thinking increases.
Increasing resolution is also what we call verbalization.
Thoughts that were vague at first can gradually become clearer by being put into words.
For example,
the feeling that “this job just doesn't feel right.”
If you dig a little deeper into that and try to add words like,
“It’s misaligned with what I want to do”
“I don’t feel like I’m growing,”
you can sometimes see the true nature of your worries or discomfort.
I think this can also be called verbalization.
Putting things into words brings your thinking into focus.
It is also important where you choose to focus.
Where are you focusing?
What do you want to bring into focus?
When you focus on the emotions within yourself in this way,
that part becomes easier to see.
I believe that verbalization is not just for explaining things to others.,
Rather,
it is for understanding and organizing your own thoughts yourself.
I think it is important to keep that in mind and verbalize things for your own sake.

【A word from 🐸】
This time, I have a little behind-the-scenes story and an introduction.
Regarding the second image, it was initially a photo that looked like a real frog 🐸,
but since there were people who aren't fond of frogs,
I changed it to a tulip.
To those who aren't fond of tulips... I'm sorry 💦
And, I changed the final words into an image ✨
It doesn't have to be right now, it's okay to stop.
But, let's definitely do it!
With that thought in mind,
I wrote this message 🍀
Otama-kichi:
Thank you for reading until the end!
Look forward to the next one!
Kokopa:
It has been getting warmer lately, so
we also changed our outfits!
What do you think?
Frog's fashion sense is catastrophic, so
we would be happy to receive some advice!
By the way,
I changed our outfits because I found it troublesome to type out "captions" (the text placed below images)
and wanted to put our names directly inside the images.
I think it's necessary since people reading Frog's (the author's) blog for the first time
won't know our names, but...
I just wish you would do a normal outfit change!
Frog:🙇
