Conductor of Symphony of Habits
Introduction
Our lives are but an orchestra, each day a new composition, each moment a note that resonates in the vast concert hall of existence. But what guides these compositions? What conducts this orchestra of life? The answer lies in our habits.
17 years have passed since I started my own business At this point in time, I decided to plan a speech. What should I talk about? What I settled on, after thinking about it for about a week, is what happens when one keeps several habits going at the same time for 10 years.
About ten years ago, I felt that in order to truly build self-confidence, it was important to shift the focus from business growth to personal growth. I started prioritizing not only work hours, but also time with my family, pursuing hobbies, appreciating art, engaging in creative activities, and taking care of myself.
Before I knew it, I found myself playing and singing “Never Enough” on the piano. If I had told my past self ten years ago, “You’ll be singing English songs in a solo piano performance,” I would have tilted my head and found it hard to believe, asking, “How could that possibly happen?” But this is the reality.
How can something fun and unexpected happen? I’m sure that’s what I would have wanted to know 10 years ago. So I’m going to talk about the methods and techniques of doing that in my Thanksgiving event.
Not only have I improved my skills, but I have also become more mindful in my daily life, which is a significant change. I used to have bruises without realizing it, I was always running late for appointments, and I was so impatient in expecting others to keep up with my pace.
But now, I spend about two hours washing clothes in my Miele washing machine, and even just five towels are put in the dryer. This makes me feel happier every time I touch a towel. I wash my T-shirts with minimal iron and finish them with a steam iron. It is also a time to indulge in self-satisfaction.
I used to be impatient and a little bit clumsy, Mr. Clumsy, but now I seem to be getting closer to Mr. Fussy, who is very particular about everything. This is also a big change that my past self from ten years ago would find hard to believe.
In other words, by consistently maintaining multiple routines and habits for ten years, I reached a point where one day I was able to play a symphony. What do you think, ChatGPT?
ChatGPT: That’s a very intriguing perspective and can be seen as a new discovery. It’s like each habit is an instrument, and when multiple instruments come together, they create harmonious and beautiful music, a symphony, where each instrument not only plays its own notes but also interacts with others.
When there is only one habit, it may just be a repetitive action with limited impact. However, when multiple positive habits are sustained simultaneously, they can influence and reinforce each other, producing even greater effects. From this perspective, each individual habit becomes part of a larger system, and by working in synergy, they can generate results beyond the sum of their parts.
Furthermore, this perspective offers new insights into how we consider and combine our actions and how they interact with one another.
In the conclusion of the speech, it would be effective to reemphasize the power of the “Symphony of Habits” and discuss how it can enrich one’s life. Sending a message that urges the listeners to take action based on this understanding would be a great way to conclude the speech.
Me: It seems like the title has become “Symphony of Habits.” Could you please write the “Introduction” for “Symphony of Habits”?
