🤔 Short Reflection

Escaping the inertia of stillness does not go the way I want.

At times like this, I need help from a forced system done together with someone else.

Thankfully, a younger church friend decided to verify today’s goal with me every day.

The reason today’s me could at least live somewhat like a person was thanks to that.

I really am such a weak person that I can survive only by staking my life on building routine systems…

Do not remain in the inertia of stillness.

Acknowledge weakness, and keep training and refining.
