My "firsts" are gradually increasing

Until a little while ago, I was

"I have to produce some results"

that was all I could think about.
Follower count.

Number of likes.

View count.

I always thought "it's not enough yet," and

I just felt impatient💦
But, I realized something recently.

Starting from a small step,

what I have built up

was not just numbers.

The day I first
joined a "membership."

I didn't have
a single article yet, but😅

I started looking forward to
opening note♪

Because I was reading the articles
updated every day📗

And then,

The day I wrote
my first article.

"I wonder if people will read it..."

I was filled with that kind of anxiety💦

The day I got my first "like."

I remember being so happy that I kept checking the screen over and over🤭

The day I first
got a "follow."

The day I first
got a "comment."

The day I first
joined a "collaborative magazine."

And the other day,

believe it or not,

I was able to receive
my first
"congratulations board"😳

▼Here is the article that received the congratulations♪

One by one,

those moments might be small events.

But looking back now,

I think they were all "seeds of the future."

Actually,


something happy happened recently♪
After reading an article by Azunaburu,


who is in the same membership

I tried practicing the method introduced in the article

a little bit in my spare time.
As a result, my followers increased by 75

in these 6 days.
What made me even happier was

that I made more connections with people who know

"Miraidane"🤭

Azunaburu introduced it
in their article♪


And I felt it once again.

When you take a step forward,

it leads to the next "first."

Four months ago,

even after learning from note side-hustle materials,

I still couldn't stand at the starting line💦

Three months ago, I finally
created an icon.

Two months ago, I created a profile,

and although I took the plunge and joined a membership,
I was just a reader😅

It took time to start posting.


Perhaps the SNS fatigue I experienced

from posting on Instagram
had become a trauma.

Even so,


if I don't gather the courage

to take that first step,

I won't be able to see a different view.

And,

since I published my first article

it has been 1 month.

An account with no articles at all
But it's different now.


Every time I write an article,

my "firsts" have gradually increased.

Each one is a small event.

But each one

gave me the courage to take the "next step."

Before I knew it,

within me,

many "firsts" have piled up.

That is not


a huge success.

But each one has pushed me forward.

And one more thing❣️


Above all,

what is encouraging me now
is the interaction with everyone in the "Tarawo Girls" membership✨

Starting with Hito-Tarawo-san,

there are many diverse and charming creators here.

Here,

"Let's do our best together"

such a warm atmosphere
is flowing, isn't it🫧

While being well-stimulated

by everyone's challenges,

I intend to move forward one step at a time,

in my own way👣


And,
last night, I newly joined a membership
😊

It is the membership of KOTAYA-san,
whom I met as a member of Tarawo Girls♪

Attracted by the luxurious benefits... no, no😅
That's part of it, but

I've thought KOTAYA-san was amazing for a while,

so I decided to join🥰

KOTAYA-san is such an amazing person✨ Thank you for the connection💕

KOTAYA-san, thank you for the wonderful GIF animation♡

One more
"first" has been added♡

If there is anyone out there right now who is wondering,

"Can I do it too?"

"I can't quite find the courage"

"I can't take that first step"

I want to tell you this.

It doesn't have to be a big result from the start😊

First, just

your first "first"

That alone is enough.

When one "first" increases, then

the next "first" will increase as well.

And by the time you realize it,

a view you never imagined might be waiting for you.


• ───── ✾ ───── •

Today's step is an asset for the future✨

I will continue to

increase my "firsts" one by one,

and nurture the seeds of the future🌱

And,

may your step today also

be a step that connects to the future✨

Thank you for reading until the end✨
