I'm not looking for perfection in myself

2025/9/30 Edited to

... Read more私は勉強や何か新しいことを始める際、完璧を目指すのではなく「Progress, not perfection(進歩を重ねること)」を意識しています。最初から完璧を求めてしまうと、できなかった部分が気になりモチベーションを失いがちですが、一歩ずつ確実に前進することが長期的な成功に繋がります。 例えば、タイムプラスのような時間管理アプリを活用すると、自分の集中時間や作業時間を見える化でき、日々の小さな進歩を実感しやすいです。私は大学生として勉強を続ける中で、この方法に助けられています。日々の勉強記録を振り返ることで、自分の努力を認められ、さらなる継続の励みになります。 また、SNSの#studytokや#fypタグを利用して、同じ目標を持つ仲間の投稿を見るのもおすすめです。共感できる投稿から刺激を受けたり、勉強法のアイデアを得ることで、自分のペースで続ける力が高まります。完璧を求めすぎず、続けること自体に価値を見出すことで、ストレスなく学びを深めていけると感じています。
