Another 4-word idiom in Japanese.
If you can use it in your own sentences, that’s a great sign for your Japanese language skills.

There are lots of things you can do a day but if one of them is for someone else’s good, it makes you feel better. You might not get paid for it, but you don’t really need to. Not everything needs to get paid for.
It’s your life. You are in charge of it.
If you want to do something with it, you’ll have to act on it. It’s scary, of course, but it doesn’t mean you have to make a big move.
Even some tiny actions can lead you to a big change eventually.
During the process, you’ll make mistakes, but so what? Nobody is perfect. If they laugh at you, so what? Let them do that. Your life is not theirs and they have nothing to do with your life.
The point is you cannot give up on what you want to do based on what they think of you.
You’re the one who will continue your life until the end. If you’re not happy with it right now, think. Think what’s making you unhappy. Think how you can make yourself unhappy.
Stand up and look ahead. Are you the person whom you yourself wanted to be 10 years ago?

N3 level grammar is what you need to know for everyday conversations.
If you still need ふりがな on top of each kanji, you need to focus more on kanji, as it’s difficult to move on without knowing the basic kanji for this level onwards.
Not everything is okay.
You have a day like the world is closing in on you.
Try smiling. You’ll feel a bit, a tiny bit better.
This tiny bit can be your hope

N1 level grammar for you.
In case you don’t know, you don’t see ふりがな let alone ローマ字 in Japan. You see both at train stations but that’s pretty much it. You never see ローマ字 for the sentence level.
And the post yesterday and post today are N2 and N1 level. Those 2 are higher levels that you need to live and work in Japan. You shouldn’t be asking for ふりがな or ローマ字 for those levels, should you? If you don’t know the readings of some kanji, you can look them up on your own, and that’s a necessary step to be an independent learner.

JLPT N1 grammar for you.
Some grammar points are rarely used in everyday conversations but we do use them from time to time.
You still have to remember those in case you encounter those rare situations.
The only solution to your problem is your action. Your simulation in your mind continues to circulate and keeps giving you an excuse not to take action.
Believe in yourself. If you have something you want to do, do it. Start something small, and go from there.
