π Diary
Usually, you try to cross the threshold through a great awakening, and if you succeed in crossing that threshold, you redefine yourself.
Only by experiencing and enduring that very, very, very painful death-like experience can you cross the threshold and change.
I have to kill my past self and escape from it.
Opportunities for growth are given to the extent of pain/suffering.
In fact, ordinary people (who feel happy from peace and stability) have neither the willpower nor the circumstances to overcome such a threshold. However, I was not born as such an ordinary person, and I am unhappy when I live such an ordinary life. Therefore, I must cross the threshold. In the past, I tried to hit the bare ground by myself, and when I saw the unnecessary blood, I got scared and ran away, but not anymore. There is a partner, there is a mentor, and there is God. So, I can definitely do it.
Yeah. Letβs not forget. There are things that must be done/finished even if it feels like your head is breaking.
βI understand, Minhyuk. However, what concerns me is that Minhyuk has the ability, heart, and will to study, but tends to run away when the most important moment comes. In life, when you have to do something, you must not run away. You must do what you have to do, even if your head feels like it will break. You need to judge and set your life priorities well, and deal with the things that come your way according to those priorities. COVID is not over yet, so please take care of your health.β - Professor Park Iljun
Letβs face ourselves fully. The reason I keep talking nonsense, making excuses, and rationalizing things when faced with something big is because of my βfearβ of failure. What should I do if I fail/get the pre-startup package? No, what should I do? Just go and think about it then. What on earth am I so afraid of?
So, that is. I wonder if even my younger brother would do that out of frustration. This is what you want to do, right? You ran after looking at this, right? You used brinkmanship, right? Then, where is the crazy person who suddenly slams on the brakes because heβs scared when running at full speed isnβt enough?
Surely I am weak. Until now, I have rarely overcome my fears and crossed the threshold. Therefore, βovercoming fearβ will change βmeβ and eventually completely change my life.
- You can only truly know something by encountering it yourself. Letβs do it first. Letβs not be overly delusional.
- Are you afraid?
- If the pre-startup package runs out, there will no longer be good opportunities? Have you applied?
- If I confess, Iβll dump you and itβll be awkward? Have you ever confessed?
- Even if I swing a baseball bat, I wonβt be able to hit the ball and get hurt? Have you tried swinging?
- Letβs give it a try!
- Okay?
- Why did it happen?
- Too bad?
- Why didnβt it work?
- Okay?
- Are you afraid?
The probability of a home run hitting from the first swing is close to 0.
- However, if you donβt give up and keep swinging and missing, you will eventually hit the ball.
- And if you keep swinging, youβll eventually hit a home run.
Letβs not forget. βI, as I have been defined so far,β is now a weak being who cannot accomplish anything on my own.
And letβs not forget. βI am nowβ is not alone. Moving forward with good people. And most importantly, I am walking with the Lord.
Well. What more do you need here? Thatβs enough. You realized it. Okay then. What are you doing? Run.
β¨ Comment by GPT-4o (KPT)
β What Went Well (Keep)

β What Was Missing (Problem)
- π Lack of specific action plan for each goal: I think it would be better to have a clear action plan for start-up package, MVP Runners, etc.
- β³ Lack of opportunity to organize the flow of emotions: It would be more helpful to specify what emotions you experienced in the process of crossing the threshold and how to apply them in the future.
- π Need to maintain regular recording habits: It is unfortunate that the development log and reading log are missing.
π Things to Try (Try)
