Tricking My Brain
I once read a book about “tricking the brain.”
I don’t remember the title,
but I had an experience like that recently,
so I want to share the story.
Every year, on Coming-of-Age Day,
I help with kimono dressing.
In my mind,
I thought,
“It’s only once a year,”
“I haven’t done it for that long,”
and
“I’m still not very experienced.”
At first, I could only help with small things.
Now, I can dress kimono almost up to tying the obi.
One day, I looked at my old Facebook posts.
There were photos of people I helped dress for their coming-of-age ceremony.
I felt nostalgic and kept looking…
and then I noticed something surprising.
I started doing this ten years ago!
Ten years?
Really?
The moment I realized that,
I suddenly thought,
“Maybe I can do this.”
I felt like a veteran for a moment.
I’m still learning, of course,
but that day,
I felt I did better than usual.
My hairstylist teacher also gave me kind words,
and that made me very happy.
Usually, I believe in
“learning by doing,”
and I try to look like a professional,
because I don’t want to make young adults feel nervous.
But this time,
I felt like I had not only the look,
but also real experience.
So maybe,
if we believe
“I’ve been doing this for ten years,”
and try something new,
things might go smoothly.
The human brain is really interesting.
Let’s trick our brains
and enjoy life.
