Portraying Your True Self

"What should I write on note?"
"I don't know what kind of things
I should post..."

To all beginners
hesitant to post on note

I would like to share just one thing with you.

That is...

"Portray your true self"

That is all there is to it.

If you read until the end,
you will find the courage to post on note.

Please, do give it a read. (^^♪

✔Your authentic self
has value

On note, please write about yourself.

It is important to write as you are,
without trying to be someone you're not.

There is no need to try to look cool.

Please do not feel like you need to use
strangely fancy phrasing.

The more you do things that aren't like you,
the higher the hurdle becomes.

If the hurdle gets too high, it will
definitely cause you to give up on posting to note.

So, please write honestly about what you feel,
what you think, and what you are struggling with.

✔ Readers can see right through you

Readers are drawn to content that you have felt with your own eyes, ears, and
body.

Unfortunately,
they will not pay attention to shallow content
created out of vanity.

What is vanity?
- The desire to show off.

Readers are already satisfied with
common information found everywhere.

What readers look for on note is
the "information from you" that has a human touch.

It is the true you, portrayed by a single human being.

Why,
do you feel the need to dress it up?

Even though there are readers who want to
see you just as you are...

✔ Reasons why you
cannot post

When you think about posting on note,
the first thing you think is
"Let's use a pioneer's note as a model."
.

I wonder what kind of things they are writing?

When you look out of curiosity,
you are overwhelmed by the high level of quality.

It is so far removed from yourself that
you end up losing confidence.

Also, the more you think,
I want to write something original of my own,
the less you are able to write.

A total beginner
cannot suddenly create something original.

You get tense,
and wonder what you should write...
your mind goes completely blank.

When that happens,
only empty time passes by...

(How hollow (-_-;)/)

To summarize...

I looked at the writing of skilled people,
got enthusiastic thinking,
"I'll write something amazing too,"
but it was impossible after all.

That is it.

It's a common beginner experience (;^_^A

✔ I, who achieved 150 consecutive posts,
was the same at the beginning

The other day, I achieved 150 consecutive days of posting.

The article from that time is right here☟

Even for someone like me,
when I first posted,
I was completely lost.

Since I didn't know what to write,
I stared intently at the notes of those who came before me...

“Wow,
　I could never write an article like this!”

That is how I felt.

But, it is different now.

As I kept writing,
my way of thinking changed.

“It’s okay to just be myself...”

“It is precisely because I am my true self
　that everyone is reading.”

I have that realization now.

Precisely because posting on note is something you can start casually,
it is easy to get overly enthusiastic in a strange way.

Accept who you are right now,
“your true self”and show it.

There is no such thing as a worthless person in this world.

Let’s keep sharing more and more on note♬

Well then, until next time.
Goodbye.
