#64 The One Difference Between Those Who Can Keep Going and Those Who Can't
~What 1,000 Morning Sessions and 200 Sessions as a Moderator Have Taught Me~
People who can keep going are not special.
As I have continued my morning sessions,
I have felt that many times.
The other day, something very happy
happened in our morning session.
-----------------------------
Mikiko, a valued member of our morning sessions
who supports us as a moderator,
has achieved ✨200 sessions as a moderator✨.
And actually,
Mikiko has also participated in over
1,000 morning sessions.
Participating 1,000 times, while also
continuing to support her peers as a moderator
for 200 sessions.
This number alone
conveys just how much she
cherishesour morning sessions.
-----------------------------
She is in charge of our Monday morning sessions,
and on days when we cannot attend due to business trips,
she hosts the sessions as a substitute.
Just continuing as a participant
is not an easy thing to do.
In addition to that,
she sets the stage as a facilitator,
and continues to create an atmosphere whereeveryone can participate with peace of mind.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Morning sessions
cannot continue with just the organizers.
People who support us.
People who watch over us.
People who cheer us on.
Only with such companions
can it continue.
The Daily Good Luck Happy Morning Session,
which has been going on for over 1,400 days,
has been able to come this far
precisely because of people like Mikiko.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
When it comes to consistency,
people sometimes say,
"That's amazing."
"You have a talent for it."
But I feel that those who can keep going
are not doing anything special.
Participating again today.
Returning again today.
Doing what I can today.
Cherishing the person right in front of me.
They are simplystacking upthose moments,
and justcontinuing them with care.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Mikiko is someone who truly embodies that.
Not to be evaluated by someone,
not to stand out more than someone else,
but simply because she wants to cherish
the placethat is the morning session.Simply because she wants to be a source of strength
for her peers.I believe those 1,000 and 200 sessions
were built up withfeelingslike that.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Through morning sessions,
I have been taught many times that
people can go further together with companions
than they can by struggling alone.
Consistency is not about willpower.
Having a place where you can return with peace of mind.
Having companions who can support each other.
And having the desire to act for the sake of someone else.
I believe that is what becomes the power
to continue.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1,000 morning sessions achieved.
200 sessions as a moderator achieved.
Behind these numbers,
there are countless early mornings,
and countless choices of
"I'll participate again today."
I'm sure there were days when she was sleepy.
I'm sure there were days when she was busy.
There might have even been days
when she didn't feel like it.
Even so,
because she stacked them up one by one,
we have these 1,000 and 200 sessions today.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Consistency
is not proof of talent.
It isproof of stacking things up
.
And it is alsoproof of having cherished her companions
.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Mikiko,
1,000 morning sessions achieved.
200 sessions as a moderator achieved.
Congratulations, truly! ✨
And thank you
for always supporting our morning sessions.
Let's continue to stack up mornings
where many smiles are born
together from here on out. 🌸
