Motivation from Action.

Today, I am visiting Tokyo International University to accompany and lead the Shizuoka City Tennis Association junior development expedition. I am currently in transit. Since there are some who understand the purpose of such expeditions and others who find it difficult to grasp, I would like to write about it briefly.
While I believe there are various purposes, one of the reasons for leading the juniors from Shizuoka City is to provide support for children who find it difficult to go on expeditions on their own or with their clubs. I take a group of juniors who cannot easily go due to various circumstances. Another goal is for them to seize an opportunity through the encounters and experiences they have there. In prefectural tournaments, if you keep winning, you end up playing against the same opponents, which leads to complacency and a lack of stimulation. Furthermore, by using public transportation like this, they can also learn how much they usually take travel for granted and how much support they receive from those around them.
Above all, what I feel is the "importance of taking action." I often hear talk about "motivation," but it is said that motivation does not come from trying to get motivated, but rather that motivation arises from taking action. "I don't do it because I'm not motivated" is a common phrase. However, the essence is that it will not arise unless you force yourself to take action. You stir up your feelings by expressing them through your body.
I hope they grasp something from this expedition. I will do my best leading them on the first day.
