2016年が明けてから早くも10日立ちました。
「1年の計は元旦にあり」と言いますが、皆様、今年はどのような年にされたいですか?
銀座店店長 高野が新年早々心に響いた言葉がありますので
恐縮ですが、ご紹介させてください。
英文ですが、あえてここで訳さずにそのまま載せます。
ご不明な点がございましたら、ご来店したときにでも聞いてみてください。
特に最初の
To be so strong that nothing that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
という箇所が、いつも指針としている「周囲に振り回されずぶれない自分を持つ」考えと
一致しているので、今年の指針にしてみようと思います。
人は大変な環境に浸かっているとだんだんネガティブになるから、たまに前向きな言葉をもらって
持ち直さないと。 今日も頑張ります♪
“Promise Yourself
To be so strong that nothing that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperityto every person you meet.
To make all your friends feelthat there is something in them
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words but great deeds.
To live in faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.”
