The reason I, who couldn't keep anything up, am now able to get moving at 4 AM. The hint was 'fun'

Recently, I realized something all over again.

It is this—
that being in a state of 'enjoyment' is what keeps things going the longest.

My day begins around 4 AM, while the city is still asleep.
And then, I have one more focused session during the quiet hours of the night.

Immersing myself in dance research using AI is my current style.

People sometimes say to me, 'How do you keep that up?' but
the reason was very simple.

It's just because it's incredibly fun.

[Fun becomes the 'engine' of the body]

Efficiency, motivation, willpower...
There was a time when I operated on those things.

But those don't last long, do they? In my case, at least...😅

Before I knew it, I would get tired and stop.

But 'fun' was different.

Without having to force myself to work hard,
my body moves naturally.

I thought about it later, and
I think this is a state where my 'body OS (the foundation that moves my body)' is
working well.

[A certain phrase connected everything for me]

While I was spending my time so absorbed in this,
I came across these words from Sachi-san on note.

When I read these words,
they resonated deeply with me.

Ah, so that's how it is, I thought.

Before worrying about anyone else's reaction,
it's about whether I am enjoying it myself first.

When that pure feeling is there,
a 'richness' naturally emerges in both words and movements.

[Improving at dance and singing were actually the same!!]

In the midst of this process, I made an interesting discovery.

When I tried using my voice while being conscious of the sensations of dance,
it became surprisingly easier to sing.

For example,

Breathing that feels like your back is expanding softly
The sensation of your lower body being stable
A state where unnecessary tension is released

When this kind of 'use of the body' is aligned,
your voice naturally extends as well.

I thought, 'Oh, this is the same.'

On the single foundation that is the body,
both dancing and singing are connected.

I'm okay at dancing, but I'm a bit bad at singing (lol).
But thanks to this discovery, I've gained one more thing to enjoy.

I'm thinking of secretly starting to practice singing, too.

[Fun spreads to yourself and to others]

Looking back,
I feel like when my heart is moved by someone's words,

it's often when that person themselves is having fun.

Rather than when they are trying to do things perfectly,
it's when they are just absorbed in it
that it somehow reaches me.

So surely,

enjoying things isn't just for yourself,
it also becomes energy that reaches someone else.

[3 Rules for 'Amusing' Myself Today]

1. 'Fun' over 'Correctness'
   When in doubt, choose the path that makes your body excited and ready to move.
   

2. Let go of 'reactions' and focus on current sensations
   Instead of someone else's evaluation, use whether you feel 'comfortable right now' as your guide.
   

3. Become your own 'number one reader'
   The words you write, the movements you dance.
   I want to be the one who finds them most interesting of all.

I'm already excited to see what kind of 'fun' I'll encounter today. 🎶✨

[In Conclusion]

You don't have to force yourself to work hard.
But, try to cherish those moments where you think, 'This might be a little fun.'

That small feeling,
before you know it, will move your body and become the strength to keep going.

I am grateful to Sachi-san, who gave me the spark for this realization.
Her warm words gently pushed me forward.

'What is something that made you feel 'excited' recently?' If you'd like, I'd be happy if you could tell me in the comments.🌸
