Win Today to Succeed Tomorrow

Confessing my worst mistake in my life, I neglected the moment I currently live. I’d always looked forward to success, focusing on the future, not the present. After a long time of training, I realized that winning everyday would lead me to the victory of my life.

Telling the truth of my failure, I kept imaging the moment of success, but not working that hard to reach my dream. I started working on it, but never achieved it because I always quit with every excuse. Every moment I’d concentrated on my dream and future, I easily ignored the current problems and required actions.

Now, I knew reaching my dreams requires the daily routine leading me to the goal. If I don’t win over my laziness and mediocre habits, I would never achieve what I want. Thought and imagination surely take me to the action, but not to the goals. Thought and imagination makes me work, and it must take time to combine thought and action together, which makes me feel driving through the darkest tunnel of life. After the tunnel, I would see the clear picture of my dream and all I want would fall into my life as an avalanche.

When riches begin to come they come so quickly, in such great abundance, that one wonders where they have been hiding during all those lean years.

From now on, I promise myself to win everyday. I set the daily plan and must complete all so that I could go further the next day. Here is my check-list for the miraculous day:

  • Wake up at 5
  • Take Omega-3 and Multi-Vitamin
  • Read the Bible (more than 5 chapters)
  • Blog-post on “pearlellenju.com”
  • Yoga for 30 minutes
  • Read a book for 30 minutes
  • Write for 2 hours
  • Sleep at 10

Let’s Win Everyday, and Suceed Tomorrow!

After a Half of Year, I Reset All

It has been four months since COVID-19 outbreak. Lifestyle of the world has been changed and people in Korea get used to wear masks wherever they go. Sometimes, all happening seems like a nightmare or a curse which stops our lives until we wake up after endless night. My resolutions for 2020 have also been stopped and this horrible contagious disease stricking all over the world haunts my daily routine and goals.

Today is my fifth anniversary of baptism. I can still remember the day I was baptized, sunk under the water and reborn under the Bible. Because of COVID-19, I’ve stopped participating in the service and started taking part in On-line service. Unfortunately, it made me lazy and stopped me join the service, even though it didn’t take much time to connect the channel.

After a long time, I joined the service on-line at the coffee shop in the morning, and I saw my assigned seat through the camera, which was unoccupied. I felt something going on inside of my heart. I shouldn’t stop anything though the world forced me to stop. I should work hard myself to reach my goal no matter what happens in the world. I’ve been depressed and lethargic afte losing my days.

I read the notes I took on New Year’s Day. After picking the motivated and blessed verse, I wrote the dreams and plans on my planner. However, after the lethargic moments came, I stopped reminding myself of what I have to do. Here are five things I promised myself to achieve:

  1. To Publish Three More Books
  2. To Post Journals on “pearellenju.com”
  3. To Read 100 Books and Write Book Revies on Naver Blog in Korean
  4. To Read the Whole Bible Once
  5. To Spend Time with My Parents (at least once a month)

As soon as I read the list, I realized that all action is not related to COVID-19. The disease was just my excuse for the laziness. I took some time to accept my mistakes and failure, and decided to reset all.

Rearranging my time and setting the daily routine to keep writing and working harder is the first action I should take right now, and then I should set the plan and start working.

No more excuses, Just start working
