Interest and passion don't last long.

This is Doranbo Bridge.
Try a lot of things, and if you don't like it, stop. Also, find something you're interested in and try it out. With this repetition
Isn't that good? What you try eventually will definitely come in handy. It's okay to get bored, so I feel it's important to do various things and take on challenges.
Sorry for the simple answer.

Hello Tsuchi-fumazu-san. My name is Akazawa from Ichimyoji.

I'm worried about how to concentrate on things until the end, but there is a law in the world that things that seem “nice” take time and effort.

For example, my temple has a website. Even this wasn't made overnight; many failures and discoveries have been repeated and corrected little by little. Looking back now, the original website was “What is this!?” It's something like that. However, by modifying it, it will gradually become better, and if you enjoy noticing that evolution, it will continue for a long time.

So I would like to first tell you about the feeling that “if you experience it, you can move forward, albeit a little bit.”

The next strength is the law that “if you keep doing anything, you will get used to it.”
Humans can get used to marathons, rough behavior, and life in prison.

Even with training with the same content, I can do it more easily today than yesterday. That's because I'm used to it.
This habituation is the strongest, and the lessons become more and more fun.

I hope you meet a good teacher.

There are a lot of things I want to do, and although I have interests, they don't last long.

You have that kind of trouble, don't you?

I think I have that kind of trouble in the same way.

Something I wanted to do so much, but when it came to the point where I wanted to work on it, I couldn't get started on it, and I lost interest.

Originally, once you start doing it, it would be preferable to focus on it until the end and get it done.

Actually, when I read something or listen to stories about people who were able to do it that way, I get excited that I want to do it, and that I should be able to do it.

But it's actually often said that people's interests and concerns don't last long. There is no end to the list of such examples.

There is a teaching called “all acts are impermanent.”
Nothing lasts forever.

There are worlds that only change.

You probably only see the negative side of the fact that you're not interested and that it won't last long.

But there's also a positive side.

I think it's also important to keep an eye on the brass side.

“It's difficult to eat one loaf of French bread at once, but you can definitely consume it little by little every day.”
If you try to do a lot at once, of course, it will be impossible.
I also play the guitar, but in order to continue for a long time, I can't do it without “I want to” rather than “I have to do it.”
“Anglers can use their needles all day long even if they can't catch fish”
The ability to focus on things isn't just about concentration on the surface.
Is there an underlying “like”? Is there anything you can “enjoy”? Have you found any other “gifts”?
Explosive concentration in my case is a must and enjoy.
For example, this Hasunoha has been aiming to answer all of the questions from that point until today, and that is because I want the questioner and the people who see it to be happy and convinced, I want them to understand the splendor of Buddhism, and I want them to understand that there is salvation in this world. At the same time, it is a joy for me to have the power to overcome all kinds of difficulties myself.
“Newspaper delivery workers don't just deliver newspapers during delivery”
More than 70 newspaper delivery women attending Toyama's zazen ceremony said that they are not just delivering newspapers during delivery. I think there's a lot to learn from these words.
In other words, you just don't enjoy it ❝ because you're doing only ❞, right?
Isn't the only thing you do that makes it the only thing you do?
There are encounters, connections, discoveries, improvements, immersion, reflection, and even getting to know oneself.
Flowers probably have petals. Direct each petal to the light on the other side.
There are endless discoveries to be found there. In order to make it last for a long time, it is necessary to find value in another direction and enjoy it.

Tsuchifunazu-sama

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.

I wonder if the feeling of being “not on the ground” is also reflected in the nickname “Tsuchifuji”...

Everyone else said it, but I'm still in my teens, so don't worry. I'm still young, so I think it's important to challenge various things, learn, and experience.

As we get older, we can't overdo it (I feel it). While various things are being tested right now, I know that if I eventually come across something called this, I'm sure I'll be able to continue.

However, in order to maintain motivation, I think it is necessary to be aware of several things and work on it.

One is to clarify your goals. Nor is it something that is impossible to achieve at all, and it is not something that is too far ahead in the long term, and within the short to medium term, for example, every 1 month, every 3 months, and about every 6 months, specify it in the schedule section or memo column of a notebook or smartphone/mobile phone so that you can always be aware of it, and every time you achieve that goal, think about some kind of reward for yourself, so that each one brings a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment. I think it would be a good idea to go ahead.

Second, don't overdo it and take a break or change of pace as appropriate. Even if my head and body continue to exude passion and try to move forward, it's hard, and eventually I get exhausted. Sometimes it is necessary to cool down, cool down, and calm down.

Third, be careful not to fall into an inferiority complex or self-loathing compared to others. It may cause you to lose confidence, and your motivation may drop all at once. Please also refer to the humble answers below

The fourth is to maintain good relationships with teachers, seniors and juniors, encouraging friends, rivals, etc.

There are really many questions that people are troubled by in various situations such as school and work due to this poor relationship. Stumbling blocks in relationships also have a big impact on motivation, so I really need to be careful.

I pray for good deeds.
