What does "it'll work out" mean? 💡
The Japanese phrase "nantoka naru" has been used to mean "things will work out" or "a solution will be found."
Actually, this phrase often appears in Edo-period fiction and rakugo, representing the positive temperament of commoners who say, "Well, things will be as they will be."
Therefore, it's not just simple optimism, but a phrase built on the peace of mind that "I'm prepared, so it's okay" or "I can solve it if I improvise." 🌱
I interpret the phrase "it'll work out" positively.
It's not that I'm just optimistically thinking "it'll work out somehow," but because it's based on the premise that even if I fail, I can solve it if I improvise, and I've prepared a situation where it's okay even if I don't do it.
Of course, sometimes I feel anxious, thinking "Will it work out? Maybe not..."
At times like that, I move forward with tasks I can do in advance or research information to get prepared.
By doing so, I can turn "it'll work out" from an irresponsible phrase into a mindset that allows me to act with peace of mind.
In other words, I think "it'll work out" is not just simple optimism, but a secret to living positively that only works when you have preparation and ingenuity. ✨
