Wish → Visualize → Think about how to make it come true ⏳ Tanabata Time Capsule

Since I said let's do Tanabata.

I wrote that we should all make wishes and make a vow for one year from now. I'll write one too. And since the person who suggested it shouldn't just write something vague—that would be like, 'Hey!'—I'll be direct.

How is it? Too loose? Even this is on the ambitious side for me. Let's look at them one by one.

Get the 'Writing Club' membership to 150 people

I'd like to do that~

Right now, we have 110 members (thank you!). Do you think, 'That's easy, you've got this'? It's not quite like that~. I have to write even better content, and there's no point in just doing what everyone else is doing. But, I want to get it on track a bit more. And there are things I want to do if the numbers increase.

Dreams expand. My dream has a continuation. Writing Club needs to be managed stably, so I have to do it somehow. I hope that by saying it out loud, I'll be held to it! A little kick in the pants for myself, smack, smack!

Clear my afternoons to dedicate to book writing and other activities

Ah, this one.

Basically, I want to manage those (things I wrote above) in the morning. Yay! My afternoons will be free~. So, what will I do in the afternoon? Well, I'll write a Kindle book.I'll do audio streaming (YouTube).I'll do it. Right now, I just can't find the time for that.

This is linked to the first one. If I do that too, there will be more opportunities for people to know about the 'Writing Club'. A virtuous cycle will be born. But, a day still only has 24 hours, so I'll have to narrow down what I do and be clever about it!

Improve my physical strength, and ensure my cat's health

Ah, I have no stamina.

It's all connected. I lack the energy and vitality to realize this and that which I wrote above. The foundation for that is 'physical strength'. After all, you need physical strength to create good things (Haruki Murakami said so too). Let's improve it. It's time to stop eating whatever I want, as much as I want.

Let's exercise. Instead of online grocery shopping, I'll go to the local supermarket. I'll eat fresh vegetables with a simple 'one soup, one dish' meal for nutritional balance. Goodbye to getting out of breath just from playing with my cat. As for the cat, keep up the good work and stay healthy ◎

Something like that? Let me paste it again.

I feel like all of these hit the perfect spot. Is number 3 actually the hardest one? Well, it's obvious, but by next year's Tanabata, I'll be a year older. But since I've set these goals, I'm going to do them.Make the Writing Club an even better place, expand the scope of our activities, and build a body that doesn't give up.

So, if you'd like to make a wish too, please go ahead.

I said by the end of today, but Monday morning the 7th is fine too. It's not a competition or anything strict. Let's all (currently 60 members!) make a wish,and look back in a year to see what we 'did! or didn't do...'I'm going to put up Tanabata decorations starting tomorrow afternoon, everyone is welcome to join! 🤗

I'm happy to receive your thoughts and shares! Please also check out the 'Writing Club' where we all improve together.
