🏡Why I left from Japan/Turkey?
One of the most common questions I’mis why I moved out of my home country (Japan/Turkey). The reason is clear: I have no particular reason to stay. I’m not married, I don’t have kids, and I have a business, which allows me time, location, and financial freedom. I can go and work wherever, and however I want. So why would I stay in the same place?
Many people stay in their hometowns simply because their parents are from there. But the world is changing, and you don’t have to live in the same city, state, or country where you were born. Of course, I’m not saying this to people who don’t have the chance to move abroad due to weak passports, political issues, health issues, etc. That’s totally understandable.
I’m talking to people who can move but choose to stay in their comfort zone.
Living abroad, or even in a different city, apart from family and friends, can be life-changing. You get to spend a lot of time with yourself and have no other option but to face your issues. You get to know yourself really well. I’ve lived alone for almost a year now and can’t believe how far I’ve come. At first, getting used to a completely different environment was difficult, and my mental state wasn’t stable. I had many mental breakdowns, and it was pretty tricky for me to get back on track.
But because of this experience, I’ve learned to take care of my mental and physical health. I’ve consistently hit the gym for the past eight months and never felt so stable. Looking back at my videos from a year ago, I wish I had started working out and caring for my health sooner. I could have been happier, less stressed, and more successful. But hey, at least I got back on track now. :)
🌟 Book Highlights: Nomad Capitalist: Reclaim Your Freedom with Offshore Companies, Dual Citizenship, Foreign Banks, and Overseas Investments
This week, I wanted to share some insights from a book I’ve been reading called “Nomad Capitalist” by Andrew Henderson. This eye-opening book has helped me learn more about taxes, running companies, and other entrepreneurial topics. I’m making over 15k+/month and expecting to surpass the 300k/year mark by the end of the year. The more money you make, the more you realize how heavy the taxes can become if you don’t know how to write them off legally. The school teaches nothing about taxes, running companies, being your boss, etc., and taxes can become very complicated. Luckily, our generation can access books, podcasts, and youtube videos to educate ourselves. If you’re also a business owner and want to reduce your taxes legally, I would recommend checking the book out :)
Besides that, I want to share a couple of highlights from the book that can be helpful for anyone.
Go where you’re treated the best. Most people stay in one place by default. When you think about it, though, there is no rule stating that they must stay there; the rule is only in our minds. That’s why I left.
You don’t necessarily have to pack your bags to “go where you’re treated best”. Your hometown could very well be the right place for you. But is should be something you allow to be chosen for you as “the thing to do”. Most people never vonsider which place actually serves their needs. Instead they simply accept the default mode set for them.
🌍 Language Course Update
If you're not aware, I recently launched my first online course, "How to Learn Any Language - Language Learning 101."
I intentionally didn't upload a video about it on YouTube because I wanted to hear your feedback before making a major announcement. I've taken multiple online courses myself and noticed that most people don't stick to them when they're too long. So, I made my course short and digestible to ensure people actually finished it. However, some students have expressed interest in a longer, more detailed course, which I totally understand.
Therefore, I've decided to add 18 additional lessons to the course without changing the price. I've already filmed six of them; the first six bonus lessons will be added to the course by next week! In 2-3 weeks, I'll add all the additional lessons. Stay tuned😄

🚀 Quote of the Week
What if all of us took that attitude after we face a rejection and a no, or we have a meeting and no one shows up? Or somebody says, “You can count on me.” And they don’t come through. What if we had that kind of attitude? The car’s repossessed. Nobody believes in you. You’ve lost again, and again, and again. The lights are cut off, but you still are looking at your dream, reviewing it every day and say to yourself, “It’s not over until I win.”-Les Brown

Ciao for now!
Your favorite Japanese gal,

That's right! Getting out of your comfort zone is the best thing you can do. When we are in our comfort zone, we inevitably become more relaxed and lazy, but laziness can be not only harmful, but also extremely helpful. Nevertheless, I try to get out of my comfort zone every chance I get. You write very interestingly and concisely, please don't stop delighting us!
Hi ruri how to talk with you
