Sometimes in order not to give up we simply have to re-adjust our goals. I always get impatient with myself when I cannot achieve the things I want to in a short amount of time. But it’s important to be patient with ourselves and look for alternative paths or routes if the first path we set out for ourselves doesn’t work out.

After a couple stressful weeks, today I had one really bad class and thought whether I really wanted to stay here. I want to stay until at least September… there are things I want to do in Japan and if I leave before I finish those things I believe I’ll always regret it. But today… I was ready to throw in the towel. Give my two months notice, rough it out and go home as soon as possible.
But then I remembered that a month or two ago I was on top of the world. I was so happy to be here and work was going really well. I think lately I’ve been stressed and down on myself. Once you start to get down on yourself it turns into a vicious cycle. I can’t perform as well as I usually do.
I don’t want to give up yet. I will try to stay positive. Things will get better. I will work to make them better.
