In this course, rule 4 is to use the kaizen spirit. And the kaizen spirit is simply to look for small daily improvements rather than looking for rare big improvements. Often, we say to ourselves: "Well, I'm going to work on my French for 3 hours this Saturday." And instead of that, I advise you to spend 30 minutes a day from Monday to Friday, looking for very small daily improvements that will allow you to obtain big improvements in the long term. So that's the kaizen spirit that we talk about in the 7 new generation rules, which you can also find on YouTube.

So the idea, rather than looking for long-term happiness, try to have the kaizen spirit, to have a small improvement in everyday life. Look for small short-term happiness. You can do this by feeling gratitude. We talked about it three weeks ago, I think, three or four weeks ago, in the podcast of Français Authentique de Marchez avec Johan. You can find this episode. I was talking about feeling gratitude. The title was " Would you sell your eyes for a billion euros? " Go listen to this episode. We talk about gratitude. I think that, literally, it will help you.

But if you feel gratitude on a daily basis, if you look for small short-term happinesses, make you move towards your goals, because the idea is still... even if we look for immediate happiness, we still want to progress, to improve, we have projects, ambitions. So the idea is not to abandon all ambition for the future. The switzerland whatsapp number data idea is to make sure to be happy on a daily basis while moving forward and progressing towards our ambitions. So if you set up activities that make you move towards your goals, it gives you immediate satisfaction.

For example, I was talking to you about the 7 rules just before, the fact of having recorded this course again, we spent... the team spent dozens and dozens of hours on it. Well, each time I recorded these videos, I was happy because I knew that it was good for my happiness of the day, but it was also good for my Authentic French objectives. Same when I record a module for the academy or when we improve the academy, when we improve the platform. Obviously, it's good because it gives pleasure to work on these activities, because it's ambitious, but in addition it advances the objectives.

So that's the first thing, try every day to have activities that make you move towards your goals. Of course, sometimes you'll have to force yourself a little, but that's how it is, you can't only do things you like.

Me, there are times I don't feel like recording the Authentic French videos. It happens to me when I have no energy etc. but it doesn't matter. It's on the calendar. And once I've done it, I'm happy. At the end of the day, I'm happy. There, I recorded four videos yesterday and four videos the day before yesterday. In the evening, I was happy. It was a good day for me. And an accumulation of good days makes a good life.
