I have been feeling lost in my career for many years now. My worst experience was losing both my dream careers because I had to quit being a teacher in Japan because I was bad at the job and got sick, and then when I got back home I failed the necessary qualification to be a translator, and seeing everybody else pass and move on to successful careers was so painful. I had to start again doing something completely different that was never my dream, and felt really lost about it. I thought because life is short, I had to find out what my purpose was very quickly, but the more I thought, the more lost I felt. It was really encouraging to hear you say it's okay to be lost, and your video made me think that maybe it's better that I did not succeed. Back then, I was not a humble person and I was very immature. If I had succeeded, I think I would have stayed that way or even been encouraged to be like that even more, and there would have been big problems had I carried on like that. So while I still don't know what I want to do, I feel like I've been able to grow a lot and become a better person because of those failures, and in a way I'm glad that it happened that way. Sorry for the wall of text - I hope somebody can find it helpful!
Only 1 exam failure and you gave up? Sheesh. I had to fail multiple times in order to succeed. stop feeling sorry for yourself and try getting back on that horse again and again and again.
@@Midnighter1886 I tried the same exam about four times, after which there were no attempts left and my side job had already become a better option for me as a career, gaining new qualifications along the way.
@@RachLZelda Failures in one thing can help us open our eyes to other possibilities we didn't see or know of before. And you may excel in those other goal pursuits which may give you more joy. Also, your goals do change in time. So your goals and desires in your 20s will be different in your 30s, 40s and 50s. I studied for 4 hard years to get my engineering degree. But after 2 years of working as an engineer, I accidentally got into sales. I excelled more in sales. Then changed over to marketing. Then management. Then started my own company. Then retired at 50.

@@Midnighter1886 Thank you for your insight. I do still feel a bit bad that y career as a translator didn't work out, but also happy that I've found a new career that works better for me where I can earn more and have better progression. It's reassuring to hear your perspective. Safe travels, friend.
A famous Indian philosopher (J. Krishnamurti) has said - "to be vulnerable is to be alive, to be invulnerable is to be dead." I think about that all the time, especially when life is painful. Thank you for all you RUclips videos, Miku-sensei!
I am 71 years old. I have been around the block a time or two. A couple years ago, I had a minor stroke. I am trying to live now so as to avoid a more major stroke. In the meantime, I have been studying Nihongo. I have spent a lot of time on Duolingo. While that is ok, your videos are very helpful. They bring more. I enjoy them very much. Unfortunately, I feel like I am very far behind your life. 8 months or so. Your videos are very meaningful to me. Please keep it up.
I similarly went through the same phase. Half way through college, I realized I was staggering behind. And it wasn't because I had a hard time with studying, I was one of the top students, but I lacked motivation and passion. Then I began distancing myself, becoming depressed all the time, couldn't engage in conversations normally in class and came home crying every night. After that I took some time reflecting and blamed it all on my lack of self-confidence. I searched ways to become more confident and slowly by slowly in the process of that, understood that I didn't have a goal. I had lost my purpose and that was the reason why I was struggling. When I became honest with myself and found what I really wanted to do, I went back on track.
These kinds of videos really set you apart from the other teachers. I also thought you were this constantly 'genki' teacher and from my own experience I know that as teachers we always try our best to spread a good atmosphere to students! I also think that in Japan this is a topic that is not talked about much (my Japanese friends would never do that...) and I like that you're teaching us how to express our 'feelings' more in Japanese. Thanks so much for the content!
Hi Miku. I just want to say that I'm feeling lost right now, going through a really rough patch. I want to become an English teacher, but my family doesn't see this with good eyes because teachers don't make as much money, or so people say. And I was about to get a really good teaching job but I lost that opportunity unfortunately, so now I don't really know what to do, who I want to become. It's funny you said that you felt lost, for a while I was really inspired by you, your teaching methods, your personality. I guess I just want to say that you make a change in other people's lives, even if we're far apart, you're inspiring Miku, as a teacher and as a person. Keep being yourself.
I was just congratulating with her for her inner strength, it takes courage to share personal weaknesses with other people. Your comment is rude and absolutely inappropriate. It doesn’t take to be her dad to understand Miku is a very sensitive and nice person.
I tried telling my family i’m feeling lost but all they said was “you’re still young you can’t feel that way at your age” at the moment I’m no longer feeling lost I’m just feeling guilty about not workin on myself earlier I have a lot of regrets that I want to let go of I also want to let go of what others think of me because it’s really stressing me out like you said feeling lost helps you acknowledge what you want in life . Life is not perfect but it has both ups and downs life is like a roller coaster you should focus on what you want rather than focusing on what others want from you because whatever you do you can’t please everyone there’ll be always people out there who think that what you’re doing is wrong even if what you’re doing is wrong sooner or later you will figure it out yourself
It’s always tough because you wonder if you’ll feel that way forever, but when you wander, you’ll find that the people who lost their way are some of the most interesting of all! Nobody who walked the straight and narrow path of life and ended up at some big company has ever been all that interesting, and truthfully, they often (but not all, admittedly) seem pretty dissatisfied. Just my 2円. Best of luck メロン！
@@AtomskNoUta thank you so much that’s very true after getting lost you will have the chance to understand more about yourself and you will figure out what really matters to you , as you said it never lasts forever but though we feel that way we get lost because our biggest obstacle in life is ourselves and that’s not the only reason though we often keep thinking about satisfying our family and friends but that’s unhealthy the most important this is what we really want not what others want from us
I like the metaphor of the seasons. It's like how winter is a time when the trees will lose their leaves, and so you might also take a chance to examine your life and let go of certain parts to create room for new change.
Hmm.. like how I feel this half year, trying to think positive but sometimes still come back again in the phase of anxiety. Believing in myself is one of the ways I have survived to this day. I hope "spring" will come in my life soon. Thank you miku sensee. 😊
ありがとうございますた🥺❤️ The video was a beautiful, tranquil journey. This video was also very necessary, and I certainly needed to hear it. It’s full of so much wisdom, and it resonates with me entirely. だいすきです。🥹
After listening to your podcasts for last 1 week, I feel like I have found a new friend. I really appreciate this content, and it gives me more inspiration to be more open with other people. As a half Japanese person, it is refreshing to hear a Japanese person be more open with their personal experiences and expression of important topics. I really appreciate your approach! hontou ni Tasukatta!
i loose my way in the summer since i work so many hours as a construction worker. My work slows down every fall and winter. (next 2 months). i look forward to the quiet of winter to regain my focus.
Thank you so much for posting this video. I also feel lost and a lot of what you said really resonates with me: being impatient and quickly wanting to “get back on track” and having a hard time seeing this as a chance to learn more about myself.
Thank you for that podcast/RUclips message. I recently subscribed to your RUclips channel as I've started taking Japanese lessons as I have a bit of free time now. Like you, I've been 'lost' for a while too. I wasn't expecting this kind of message from this channel - but am very appreciative of the fact that it came my way. We are all a little lost at various times in our lives - some more often than others. Hope we all find our way someday!
Your wise words have the ring of experience and universal truth. They immediately made me recall the Pete Seeger song made famous by the Byrds', from Biblical verses written between 10 BC and 3 BC. You said you hoped your words touched someone heart. Well know they touched my soul. Some things truly only connect when you are ready to open to accept the connection.
Thank you very much for this video Miku sensei. Your words truly resonated with me, I need this in this period of my life. Not only you're a great teacher in japanese, but in life wisdom as well.
Hey Miku, Thank you very much for this video. I can tell you that you have spoken from the heart in this video, because it is also so, you are not alone. I have noticed after several years that I am very depressed. And went 2 years ago, in treatment to help me. In this time I have also learned many things like you, and I have set a goal to come to Japan to find myself, to ask myself exactly the same questions, what I want to do with my life. In October it is then so far and I come to Osaka, because I have the feeling I belong there and want to find out why. Your video is just an enrichment for everyone, even in your difficult time you continued and that is the right decision. Thank you for everything greetings from Germany
Cette vidéo m'a fait du bien, le fait de dire que les périodes difficiles permettent de préparer les joyeuses et de rester positif dans sa vie. Merci Miku
We humans really struggle to be in the moment. Our mind is always reviewing or making plans - thinking of the present or past. There are a lot of societal pressures that makes us not act, choose, or simply be ourselves. Somehow we subconsciously deny our authentacy and our truths to accommodate others or simply to avoid to conflict. These pressures come in many forms: through our parents, family, group of friends, education, culture, media, ... Also all of these shaped us into who we are. In the end it's us that decide what to believe, how to act and react to people, situations, information, things. So we have a responsability. But also freedom. We need a lot of corage to say No sometimes and go against other's people's thoughts. But being unease is definetaly coming from us suppressing ourselves and not appreciating the moment. We need to reprogram our believes in alightment with our own truths. We're here to learn, not to suffer. I heard the podcast without subtitles. So I have to recognize that I came this far. Although I always put myself down for being slow. This also means I'm going somewhere. I don't know where to, とりあえず日本にいる!
Love the video, Miku Sensei. As a person who life isn’t exactly where I want it to be right now, this video help me realize that life is a mold that shapes you and that you have to be like water and adapt to it the best you can, and also to appreciate the things I have now like the ability to learn Japanese from the other side of the world thanks to your videos. Miku Sensei no yasashii kotoba de origatou gozaimasu
Thank you for sharing your experience Miku-sensei. I agree that negative feelings and uncertain or unclear circumstances do not last forever. A lesson is possible to gain which will ultimately serve our greater good, after passing through a life trial or tribulation. Inner peace and daily blessings on your journey Miku-sensei.
jlpt exam is approaching, and all i feel is too much negativity and the inescapable "what ifs".. i came here to rest, and along the way, i learned not just new Japanese words but life itself. thank you for this episode, Miku Sensei. ❤
Every time I completed a small project (writing an article, getting a degree or diploma) I would feel somehow empty... like a hole in the heart. I need to be constantly engaged... now self learning japanese, and very grateful for Miku sensei's videos :)
thank you very much for your precious words miku san. Actually I am totally feeling small. I lost myself for a long time . Sometimes I even want to give up my life and everyday becomes meaningless. Your video somehow made me feel energetic.Thanks alot. I can speak in japanese too and hopefully I can meet you when I come to japan. Thank you very much sister.
In the video Miku throws a stone at a ring. Her first throw is too far right, then she over corrects too far left, but with the next throw, she gets it just right…life is the same, we throw ourselves out there, often in the wrong direction, we reflect and try to correct and still we may get it wrong, but if we just keep going, keep reflecting and making adjustments eventually we will get it right :)
This is so relevant to me also miku sensei 😢 It's been 2months now since i worked here in japan, and i feel so demotivated and down every now and then because i feel like couldn't do my work better because of language barrier. 私はペラペラじゃないし, 3カ月日本語を勉強したのに会社の人は本当にあまり聞き取られませんでした。自分が恥ずかしいをかんじました。 You may think that you are not as worthy as you think, but Please be informed that you are very precious to someone.. someone like me who have been continously watching your YT uploads to learnJapanese.. Don't give up because you are an inspiration to us, to learn Japanese language and i am taking this video as well to stay motivated even though i feel like giving it up 😢 Stay strong Miku sensei!😁
You Are not alone Miku.l alway beside you.You are my inspiration. Do not overthinking and please remember everything in your life is miracle.live in the moment and keep fighting
Being vulnerable makes us humans. You might think of us just saying these kind random words but we truly meant it when we say we support you and we admire you. Just keep on going and live life the way you want. Probably that's one of the best gifts you can give yourself that'll last eternity.
Reminds me of the song by Information Society (band) "What's on Your Mind (Pure Energy) ", and the song by Eagle (not the one by Michael Jackson) "You are not Alone". Anyway, nice video with lots of beautiful sceneries: give me lots of positive energy!
Very help full video for learning japanese ,and learning lesson life .im Indonesian ,your story telling make me feel better ,its see to me "you are not alone in this problem" terima kasih:)
Hi Miku san. I studied Nihongo for 2 years in Tokyo some years ago. Recently I decided to try to refresh my language ability and find that I enjoy your videos very much. This one on finding purpose and belonging in life is so interesting. We all sense the lostness and estrangement of life because we really are estranged from our Creator. Sin has separated us from God. And sin can only be dealt with my finding forgiveness in the One who paid my sin debt. Most people try to deal with the effects of sin by seeking purpose in things, work, relationships, etc., but reconciliation to God is the real answer.
i just try to be as much happy as possible, i try to have fun and improve myself thats it we dont need to become perfect, just live your life... (or not)
I felt so lost for the first 6 months of the year, so I did something I've wanted for for a while and moved to Japan. So much I want to do and see I don't have time to feel lost, like you say! I wonder how long it will last.
I hope Japan will work out great for you :) For most people, myself included, there comes a point where all one’s illusions about Japan crashes with reality. Kinda like dating someone lol ^^ After that, you decide if you truly love it, if it’s worth it. For me, the hardest part is how antisocial (and not authentically friendly) most Japanese are, and also how few cool expats there are here (for some reason, you meet way more cool, interesting expats in Korea)
Miku san, thanks a lot for your podcast, I do not think it is easy to make a retrospective of our life at a given moment, have we chosen the right path for our studies or career ? did we take the right decision that will drive our little way in this world ? to some extent it is a sort of "ikigai" that all of us would like to reach. There is an expression which for me resumes dozens of books : " ne rêve pas ta vie mais vis tes rêves" (don't dream your life, but live your dreams) .
Lovely video and inspiring. Many people no doubt were shaken by Covid's impact on the world economy but also injecting fear and uncertainty causing people to be lost, not knowing what the future would be like. We are all still recovering from that disaster but many of us with personal losses, like my Japanese husband who passed away more than two years ago, precisely at the outset of all the Covid madness. Such seismic shifts in life, like losing a close family member do cause, or rather force us to reconsider and reorganize our lives around different parameters. Honestly, I still haven't found my way, but am better off at least from a year and two years ago. I'm still studying Japanese, which should be odd if I am not in Japan at present and don't foresee my using it soon.

i loose my way in the summer since i work so many hours as a construction worker. My work slows down every fall and winter. (next 2 months). i look forward to the quiet of winter to regain my focus.
Feeling lost just means you're on your own path with unknown adventures ahead. Good or bad they are still unique experiences and should be welcomed.
Truly inspirational!!! Very Very moving words!!!!

Thank you very much for this video.

すごいみくせんせい！いろいろ教えて、本当にありがとう❤️
Thank you for sharing your experience Miku-sensei. I agree that negative feelings and uncertain or unclear circumstances do not last forever. A lesson is possible to gain which will ultimately serve our greater good, after passing through a life trial or tribulation. Inner peace and daily blessings on your journey Miku-sensei.
jlpt exam is approaching, and all i feel is too much negativity and the inescapable "what ifs".. i came here to rest, and along the way, i learned not just new Japanese words but life itself. thank you for this episode, Miku Sensei. ❤
Every time I completed a small project (writing an article, getting a degree or diploma) I would feel somehow empty... like a hole in the heart. I need to be constantly engaged... now self learning japanese, and very grateful for Miku sensei's videos :)
remembering what you forgot is what this hole is trying to tell you. this has been described for thousands of years in human history.
terima kasih telah menyampaikan hal yang sangat bermanfat
How right you are! You stopped my breathing for a moment without realizing it...thanks!🙂🙏
I am going through a similar situation - except it has been years rather than months - I can at least consider that it's possible.
涙が止まらないんです。😭 ありがとうございました。ミク先生。
thank you very much for your precious words miku san. Actually I am totally feeling small. I lost myself for a long time . Sometimes I even want to give up my life and everyday becomes meaningless. Your video somehow made me feel energetic.Thanks alot. I can speak in japanese too and hopefully I can meet you when I come to japan. Thank you very much sister.
Thank you, it's a hard time right now and I needed these words
Thnks miku sensei
So much good advice here, awesome video.! Thank you, that was very inspiring.
Five minutes in and I’m already tearing up and would hug you if you were next to me ;_; I feel you so hard
Its deep 🙏
In the video Miku throws a stone at a ring. Her first throw is too far right, then she over corrects too far left, but with the next throw, she gets it just right…life is the same, we throw ourselves out there, often in the wrong direction, we reflect and try to correct and still we may get it wrong, but if we just keep going, keep reflecting and making adjustments eventually we will get it right :)
みくせんせい、新しい表現えてくれてありがとう。言葉は”心に響く”。この言葉知らなかった。この動画が本当に心に響く！
thank you so much for your this content, you make me feel better when feel so complicated
素晴らしい動画です！編集も内容も声も素敵でした。特に季節に例えたのがよかったです。しかし最近の冬は長すぎると思いません？w
いつもありがとうございます。次回の動画も楽しみにしています！
This is so relevant to me also miku sensei 😢
It's been 2months now since i worked here in japan, and i feel so demotivated and down every now and then because i feel like couldn't do my work better because of language barrier. 私はペラペラじゃないし, 3カ月日本語を勉強したのに会社の人は本当にあまり聞き取られませんでした。自分が恥ずかしいをかんじました。
You may think that you are not as worthy as you think, but Please be informed that you are very precious to someone.. someone like me who have been continously watching your YT uploads to learnJapanese.. Don't give up because you are an inspiration to us, to learn Japanese language and i am taking this video as well to stay motivated even though i feel like giving it up 😢
Stay strong Miku sensei!😁
You Are not alone Miku.l alway beside you.You are my inspiration. Do not overthinking and please remember everything in your life is miracle.live in the moment and keep fighting
4:46 本当にありがとうみく先生。。
新しい道は今後始める 🤗
:O I'm intrigued!
Being vulnerable makes us humans. You might think of us just saying these kind random words but we truly meant it when we say we support you and we admire you. Just keep on going and live life the way you want. Probably that's one of the best gifts you can give yourself that'll last eternity.
I needed this
Thank you Miku. That was very inspiring.
Thank you, Miku, you are an inspiration.
Reminds me of the song by Information Society (band) "What's on Your Mind (Pure Energy) ", and the song by Eagle (not the one by Michael Jackson) "You are not Alone".
Anyway, nice video with lots of beautiful sceneries: give me lots of positive energy!
Thank you I needed to hear this 🧡
ありがとう!!!
Really really appreciate it. Thanks a lot
Can’t wait to hear what you have to say!
Very help full video for learning japanese ,and learning lesson life .im Indonesian ,your story telling make me feel better ,its see to me "you are not alone in this problem" terima kasih:)
Life isn't always a bunch of roses, we all have lost our way from time to time. 実は友達と親戚がいれば迷った道からたすけてあげます。
話をしてくれてありがとうございます😊
Hi Miku san. I studied Nihongo for 2 years in Tokyo some years ago. Recently I decided to try to refresh my language ability and find that I enjoy your videos very much. This one on finding purpose and belonging in life is so interesting. We all sense the lostness and estrangement of life because we really are estranged from our Creator. Sin has separated us from God. And sin can only be dealt with my finding forgiveness in the One who paid my sin debt. Most people try to deal with the effects of sin by seeking purpose in things, work, relationships, etc., but reconciliation to God is the real answer.
Lots of luv from Thailand 🙏
Hehe 😉 I LOVE Thailand:):)
this is amazing, thank you so much for sharing!
ありがとう、みく先生。今空港にいます。僕は悲しくて寂しいですが、そのビデオに嬉しさをもらいました。
hope you are feeling better :)
ありがとうございましたミクさん. すごくいい話ですね.
素晴らしいお話しを聞かせていただきありがとうございます🙇
i just try to be as much happy as possible, i try to have fun and improve myself
thats it
we dont need to become perfect, just live your life...
(or not)
心からありがとございますミク先生．大切な話❤️
I felt so lost for the first 6 months of the year, so I did something I've wanted for for a while and moved to Japan. So much I want to do and see I don't have time to feel lost, like you say! I wonder how long it will last.
I hope Japan will work out great for you :)
For most people, myself included, there comes a point where all one’s illusions about Japan crashes with reality. Kinda like dating someone lol ^^
After that, you decide if you truly love it, if it’s worth it.
For me, the hardest part is how antisocial (and not authentically friendly) most Japanese are, and also how few cool expats there are here (for some reason, you meet way more cool, interesting expats in Korea)
@@snorremortenkjeldsen6737 Yup very much so. Just ride the wave while I can :)
おはようございます先生、私は先生の全部動画を見て喜ぶです、先生の教え方はめっちゃすごい。先生はいつも嬉しげだ。先生を見て私も嬉しなりました。特別漢字の動画は一番好きです先生の全部動画私にとって役に立ちます。未来にN2文法を中心して動画をアップロードをしていただきませんか。
ミク先生の動画はいつも役に立った。私はミク先生に幸福の探求と言うパンフレットを伝えたい。このパンフレットは産まれてくる前にどこから来たのか、この人生の目的はどういうことであるのか、死んだ後でどこに行くのかと言う3つの質問の答えが書いてあります。出してしてもいいですか？
Miku san, thanks a lot for your podcast, I do not think it is easy to make a retrospective of our life at a given moment, have we chosen the right path for our studies or career ? did we take the right decision that will drive our little way in this world ? to some extent it is a sort of "ikigai" that all of us would like to reach. There is an expression which for me resumes dozens of books : " ne rêve pas ta vie mais vis tes rêves" (don't dream your life, but live your dreams) .
❤️
みくちゃん、アッラーはコーランで私たちに言った:
ドイツからの愛 ♥️
thank you for this video Miku sensei
Lovely video and inspiring. Many people no doubt were shaken by Covid's impact on the world economy but also injecting fear and uncertainty causing people to be lost, not knowing what the future would be like.
We are all still recovering from that disaster but many of us with personal losses, like my Japanese husband who passed away more than two years ago, precisely at the outset of all the Covid madness.
Such seismic shifts in life, like losing a close family member do cause, or rather force us to reconsider and reorganize our lives around different parameters. Honestly, I still haven't found my way, but am better off at least from a year and two years ago.
I'm still studying Japanese, which should be odd if I am not in Japan at present and don't foresee my using it soon.
Subtitles are available in Hindi also.🥰 Love from India❤
