Compromise

It is sometimes necessary to compromise, swallow the pride and take a realistic measure.

This might be painful and even heartbreaking.

But, for now, just grit the teeth and accept what need to be done.

Sometimes, you have to lose a battle to win the war.

Take down-to-earth steps with composure and build up conditions and facts to win in the future.

Steadily and cautiously.

Never lose hope, and keep the bold aspiration quietly.

Prepare, arrange and create every possible element that ensures the final ultimate victory.

Work

When overwhelmed with work to do, take a deep breath and cool down.

Think what is important and what is possible to be done.

No need to get everything done at once.

Concentrate on key points.

Decompose tasks into manageable, essential steps.

They are not so many.

Take these steps one by one with composure.

No need to pressure yourself.

Just enjoy as if building a piece of woodwork.

Intuition

Be intuitive.

Cast away formality, stereotype, what is supposed to be, what is 'desirable.'

Focus on something that clicks the mind.

Never be trapped with 'reality' just there.

See the future.

Think about what will emerge seriously.

And arrange things for that future, which you have just imagined.

Training

Anything can be turned into tools or materials for training.

Any difficult or even absolutely disappointing tasks, circumstances and obstacles can be used in order to elevate the quality of one's capability and character.

At times, one may be put in trying circumstances, which can be felt as if living in the bottom of the sea.

But, depending on one's attitude and perception, everything can be the source of growth.

Rather than simply being discouraged at the mercy of difficulties and problems, use them to train own self and nurture even greater strength and capacity.

Then, one can enjoy anything that comes one's way.

Core

When you have lost confidence and every kind of motivation, try to explore the very depth of your own being, and seek out and reach its true core.

What is it really yearning for?

What is the actual nature of it?

What is the best way to make it truly fulfilled?

Cast way all the accumulated 'data' of experience in the head and any formality of efforts so far.

Just get to the true core of own self.

Really feel it and honestly express it.

Try to think out or feel what is the best actual concrete behavior or attempt to manifest it.

Then just do it.
