Graduate from perfectionism! Pass with 30 points 💮 Namaru Lion teaches you the magic of loving yourself

Thank you for your hard work today.

From morning to night, I ran around for my family, for someone else 💦

At night, the moment I entered the futon,

"Oh, I couldn't do that today either."

"I could have been more gentle."

Are you blaming yourself like that?

I used to be like that too.

Every day, at the reflection meeting, I was ❌ myself.

But at one point I realized 🤭

If you are looking for perfection, you will never be happy 💦

So I lowered the bar to give myself ⭕️ to the limit.

It passed with 30 points.

I woke up in the morning, ⭕️

Because I made rice, Hanamaru ⭕️

Because I folded the laundry, Hanamaru ⭕️

Even if the dishes are washed tomorrow, I survived today! That alone is 100 Manten points.

An important message from the lion.

"It's okay if it doesn't work today. You can start over as many times as you like."

If you ❌ yourself today, you can start writing a new ⭕️ tomorrow.

Forgive and love yourself for 30 points.

That kindness will be the energy to live tomorrow.

It doesn't have to be perfect.

It's okay to remain clumsy.

First of all, give yourself an oversized ⭕️ 💕

It's okay, it's all ⭕️.

Good night 🌙

... Read more完璧主義で自分を責めがちな毎日は、知らず知らずのうちに心に重荷を負わせてしまいます。私も以前は、毎日の反省が止まらず、自分に厳しすぎるあまり疲弊していました。そんな時に「30点で合格」という考え方に出会ってから、気持ちがとても楽になりました。 朝起きて今日を生き抜く、それだけで十分に価値があるという事実に気づけたからです。たとえ洗い物や掃除など家事が後回しになっても、自分を責めず「今日の自分にハナマル⭕️」をあげています。そうすることで、自己肯定感が少しずつ自然に育まれていくのを感じられました。 この考え方の素敵なところは、「今日ダメでも大丈夫、何度でもやり直せる」というメッセージに尽きます。失敗やできなかったことにフォーカスするのではなく、できたこと、がんばったことに目を向けることで明日へのエネルギーが湧いてきます。私自身も、忙しい日々の中で数点でも自分に⭕️をつけることで、心が軽くなり新しい一歩を踏み出せました。 完璧じゃなくていい。不器用でもいい。そう思えると肩の力が抜け、気持ちにゆとりが出てきます。自分を認めることは家族や周囲にも優しく接するための第一歩でもあると思います。ぜひこの記事をきっかけに、あなたも30点で合格の自分へと優しさをプレゼントしてみてください。きっと毎日がもっと楽しく、明るく感じられるはずです。

Perfectionism is a type of imposter syndrome
Do you ever feel like your accomplishments are not your own? As if you are wearing a mask throughout your academics, career, and social journeys. Maybe you feel like you have to be perfect so YOU are not seen. The real you is beautiful. The real you is authentic. Who you are will shine through.
