In this episode, we talk about the pleasure we get from hearing stories, and I share with you a beautiful tale about the joy that comes from helping others. Listen now, and then read the (shortened) transcript below to check your understanding.

This story takes place in a hospital, many years ago. And there was a room where there were two men, both seriously ill. One of those men was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour a day to drain the fluids from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend of all his time lying flat on his back. He couldn’t see anything, except the ceiling.

The men talked for hours on end. They spoke about their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, where they’d been on vacation, and the things they’d learned in their lives. And every afternoon, when the man in the bed next to the window, could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the wonderful things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed would live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and the colour of the outside world. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake, the man had said. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm amid flowers of every colour of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all of this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene..........

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
みなさん、お元気ですか？
僕は元気です！

さて、今日はルーティンについて、話します。
みなさんは、ルーティンが好きですか？
どんなルーティンを持っていますか？

僕はルーティンが好きです。
僕がしているルーティンは、例えば、
ランニングとか、ヨガ、トレーニング、などですね。

毎日やることを決めます。
できるだけ、
同じ時間、例えば朝の7時、
同じ長さ、例えば30分、
走る、とか、ヨガする、とか決めます。

人は21日間続けると、習慣になるそうです。
21日ぐらいまでは、しないことが当たり前なので、毎日することが大変です。
でも、21日をすぎると、やることが当たり前になります。
だから、やらないと、"あ、今日やってないな、やろうか"というふうに脳が変わっていくようです。
おもしろいですよね。

この時、はじめに21日間続けるのが大変ですね。
その時の個人的なポイントは、
ハードルを下げること、ですね。
要は、簡単にする、ということですね。

例えばランニングを習慣にしたい人は、はじめから長い距離、長い時間は走らず、短い距離、時間で走ります。
少し物足りないなと感じるぐらいがちょうどいいと思います。

僕は、自分のルーティンを今見直しているところです。
やりたいことがたくさんあるけど、まだできていないことも多いです。

それを少しでもルーティンに入れたいと思っています。

みなさんはどんなルーティンを持っていますか？
ぜひオンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、
ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
