I want to be my own number one fan

Continuing to post every day,
what makes me think again is
the existence of fans.

Because someone reads it...

Because there are people
waiting for my articles...

Because I am looking forward to that person's 'like'...

When I can think that way,
I can renew my heart and keep writing,
thinking, 'I'll write and post again!'

Now then...

For you,
your number one fanis who?

Is it your husband?
Or is it your wife?

Is it a close friend?

Is it 'that person' who
always sends you a 'like'?

When you think of 'number one fan',you become conscious of someone other than yourself.

But, I suddenly thought.

The fact that...
Wait, could it be that
the biggest fan for me is myself!?

It is no one else.

The undeniable truth that the first person to become your fan is
yourself.

Are you aware of this?

Why is it that
your own number one fan is yourself?

And,
what are the benefits of feeling that way
precisely because you are your own number one fan?

The theme this time is
'I want to be my own number one fan'
.

I hope you will read on and
find this helpful.

Well then, let's get started (^^♪

✔ Knowing your fans

I will start by talking about the definition of a fan.

A "fan"refers to someone who
passionately supports or loves a specific person or thing.

"I just can't help but check it out"
"I can't start my day without this"
"When I have a spare moment, this is what I go to"

People who love such people or things
dearly are collectively
called fans.

So then...

Who exactly are the
"fans"of the articlesyou write on note?

Are they the people who passionately send you likes?

Are they the people who read your articles
and follow you?

Are they the people who always send you
warm comments?

It might not be wrong to consider
the people above as "your fans."

However,
I cannot say for sure that it is absolute.

Also,
when it comes to whether they qualify as the "first fan,"
it makes me hesitate to say it's just any random person.

What I want to say here is
about "passionately supporting."

In other words,
isn't the person who engages with the work the most
the strongest fan of all?
That is the reality.

And, at the same time,
“The person who has engaged with the work the most
　is the one who qualifies as the number one fan”can be said.

✔The reason why you yourself
　are the number one fan

The person who has engaged with
your work the most
is your strongest fan,
and qualifies as your number one fan.

If there is someone who comes to mind
when you think, "...if that's the case, it's that person!"
I think that is wonderful.

By all means,
please cherish that person.

While the person who came to mind here
is also one important fan...

There is one other person
who has engaged with the work the most.

Yes...

It is you.

It sounds like a scary phrase for some reason,
sorry about that (bitter laugh)

Why are you yourself
your own number one fan?

For example...

You reread your article many times before it's finished.
You reread it from the note notifications after posting.
You reread it again after receiving comments.

As mentioned above, you
will encounter opportunities to reread
the articles you have written many times.

And,
when you reread them...

"I should have done it this way"
"Ah, this part is interesting"
"I see... so that's what I was thinking"

You will look back on them objectively
like that.

Also, even though you should
already know the topics and answers,
you end up rereading them again...

Isn't this phenomenon
something that only a fan
would do?

Since the beginning of your note, the person who has
reread your articles the most
is undoubtedly"you yourself".

That is why you yourself are
your own enthusiastic fan,
and also your number one fan.

✔ The biggest benefit of
　being your own fan

"I am my own number one fan"

Even so,
"I still want fans other than myself"
, right? (;^_^A

I completely
understand that feeling.

After all,
the likes and comments I receive from others are
the greatest reward.

And if it's a gift from "that person" who always supports me,
the joy is doubled or tripled, isn't it?😊

Just because I am my own
number one fan,
it doesn't mean I'm saying
to neglect other fans.

Of course, other fans are also
precious... they arefansthat should be cherished.

I cannot distinguish between them,
and they are one-of-a-kind existences.

However, when you consider yourself
as your number one fan,
various benefits arise.

For example...

If you make yourself your fan,
you can continue to be the "greatest ally"
who knows you best.

If you continue your creative activities,
there will be times when things are painful or difficult.

Even in those situations,
if you think of yourself as your number one fan,
you can create a reason to hang in there,
thinking, "There is a fan who has watched my hard work."

Also,
precisely because you are the number one fan...

you can strongly feel,
"I don't want to betray them,"
"I don't want them to be disappointed,"
"I want to be a cool person."

If you view yourself, the person closest to you,
as your fan,
you can keep taking action
without listening to the whispers of the devil.

Additionally,
you think, "I will write content that makes myself happy."

If you can think about writing what you want to write
without meeting anyone's demands,
it's exciting,
and you can work with ease,
thinking, "Oh, it's okay to write about this," without feeling resistance
to the act of writing itself.

Precisely because you are your own fan,
it should be easy for you
to please your number one fan.

After all...
you are the one who knows you best.

* * * * *

The existence of fans is the support for your activities and
is an indispensable presence.

When you are truly feeling helpless and in pain,
whether a fan isthereornotwill make a far different result
for that first step you take forward.

And, the existence of fans
is not limited to"other people"only.

You yourself are
also your own fan.

Of course, there are likely enthusiastic fans who
check your actions one by one.

That is something to be very grateful for.

However, the one who knows your actions the most
is undoubtedly "you yourself".

The fan who knows about the article you wrote
while rubbing your eyes when you had no time
is you yourself.

The fan who knows the fact that you rewrote it,
thinking "maybe this way would be more interesting"
while chuckling to yourself, is you yourself.

You yourself are a fan,
and you are also the number one fan.

That is precisely why you do not want to
disappoint your precious fan.

I hope this article becomes an opportunity for you
to re-examine your "only one fan (yourself)".

Well then, see you later.
Excuse me.
