Your Personal Mission Statement (Personal Mission Statement or Mission Statement) is a roadmap, guiding you towards a life of purpose and fulfillment. But before you write it, take a deep dive into what truly matters. Here are some questions to spark self-discovery and craft a powerful Mission Statement:

Values:

What are my core values? (e.g., integrity, adventure, learning)
What principles are non-negotiable for me?
What actions bring me a sense of peace and satisfaction?
Passions and Strengths:

What activities make me lose track of time?
What skills and talents come naturally to me?
How can I leverage my strengths to make a positive impact?
Goals and Aspirations:

What do I want to achieve in different areas of life (career, relationships, personal growth)?
What kind of legacy do I want to leave behind?
How can my goals contribute to a better world?
Impact and Contribution:

Who or what inspires me?
What problems or challenges do I care deeply about solving?
How can I empower others to live fulfilling lives?
Reflection and Growth:

What motivates me intrinsically (from within) versus extrinsically (external rewards)?
Am I living authentically, aligned with my values?
What are some challenges or fears that might hinder my progress?
Bonus prompts:

Imagine your ideal future self. What are they doing? Who are they with?
What would my role model's Mission Statement look like?
What advice would my future self give me today?
Remember:

There are no right or wrong answers. Be honest with yourself.
This is an ongoing exploration. Revisit your Mission Statement regularly as you evolve.
Your Mission Statement should inspire and motivate you.
By reflecting on these questions, you'll gain clarity on your core values, aspirations, and the impact you want to make. This self-awareness will empower you to craft a Mission Statement that serves as a guiding light on your life's journey.

Questions for a Personal Mission Statement - Episode 87

O pronome Te é chamado de pronome pessoal, ele corresponde a segunda pessoa do singular de um verbo - Qual é a segunda pessoa do singular? É o Tu , se você conjugar o verbo Falar, a primeira pessoa, Eu falo, segunda pessoa, Tu falas. Terceira, Você/ Ele/ Ela fala. O pronome Te pode ser direto - quando não precisamos de preposição, ou indireto, quando precisamos dela. Vou dar alguns exemplos de Direto, primeiramente: 1- Eu te respeito - pois quem respeita, respeita alguém, sem a necessidade da preposição. “Se usarmos a terceira pessoa do singular, seria Ele a/o respeita (informalmente, na língua casual, nós utilizamos de uma outra forma. Ele respeita ela)”. 2- Eu te encontrei (pois quem encontra, encontra alguém, sem preposição). Se usarmos a terceira pessoa, seria Eu a/o encontrei - informalmente, na língua casual, do dia a dia , nós falaríamos. Eu encontrei ele). 3- Agora, darei o exemplo de duas frases, uma frase somente na segunda pessoa e a outra, na terceira para você perceber a diferença. Ontem, encontrei contigo e te convidei para jantar. Uso na segundo pessoa - pois você tem o contigo e o te, os dois pronomes estão rimando. Ontem, encontrei com você e lhe convidei para jantar. Uso na terceira pessoa - pois você tem o com você e o lhe - na língua formal , na escrita, pois na língua falada, provavelmente, nós misturaríamos as duas frases, ou seja, nós falaríamos: Ontem, encontrei com você e te convidei para jantar! Em alguns livros, você perceberá que é possível colocar na frente o verbo no início das frases, como: Encontrei-te! Só que no português do Brasil, não usamos essa versão na fala, somente na escrita para dar um pouco mais de embelezamento no texto. 4- Ela te procurou (pois quem procura, procura alguém, sem preposição) Mas, caso seja uma procura emocional, se tiver valor afetivo para o sujeito, pode levar a preposição “por”. 
Para continuar com a transcrição, me mande uma mensagem.

Learn German with Stories is something absolutely new in podcasting:

1) we pick you up at your level, with a constant, low ammount of new words per episode, starting from zero
2) we lead you to your goal in small steps, (we split the grammar into 100 pieces and slowly spoonfeed it to you)
3) we have a full-blown, continuous story, played by over 30 professional voice actors, designed to always make you hungry for more!

The story will have 100 episodes in total, and they will stay free forever. It's suitable for ages 12 and up. We cover the most useful and important German, which is 
all the words and grammar of the first level, A1. But also advanced learners benefit from it, because it goes much deeper than the standard A1 level. German Stories 
is one and a half years in the making, and it’s the most ambitious and unconventional German learning podcast yet. We hope you enjoy our show!

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【中秋节】的话题。上个星期六是中国的传统节日中秋节，放三天假。中秋节是我最喜欢的节日之一，因为它是和家人团圆的节日。那么中秋节是怎么来的呢？
农历八月十五在秋季的正中，中秋节因此得名。又因这晚月亮很圆，人们由天上的圆月联想到人生的团圆，因此阖家团圆也成为中秋节的核心意义。中秋节的来历说法很多，通常被认为和嫦娥奔月的故事有关。传说王母娘娘为奖赏后羿射日的功绩，赐予他一粒不老神丹。后羿不舍与妻子分离，因而没有吃。这件事被歹人所知，歹人趁后羿不在家中，逼迫嫦娥交出丹药，嫦娥当机立断，一口吞下不老神丹，随后不由自主地飘离地面，飞上月宫成了仙。后羿从此在八月十五的月下设案，怀念嫦娥。由于“男不拜月，女不祭灶”的习俗，这一天拜月的仪式通常只有女性和孩子参与。中秋节有着很多习俗，形式也各不相同，但都寄托着人们对生活无限的热爱和对美好生活的向往。总的来说是传承历史，传递亲情，希望亲人生活都团团圆圆。
中秋节有什么习俗呢？中秋节的十大习俗，你知道哪些？一、中秋赏月。赏月活动源于魏晋，到了宋代更是不明之夜，也是通宵达旦，玩月游人。二、吃月饼。唐僖宗在中秋节吃月饼觉得味道甚好，是关于月饼最早的记录。现如今月饼的品种层出不穷。三、祭月。在古代有秋暮夕月的习俗。四、燃灯。中秋将燃起的夜灯悬挂于屋檐下。五、观潮。在古代，浙江一带观潮也是中秋盛事。六、玩兔儿爷。现在很少见到，基本作为民俗文物在民俗博物馆展出。七、走月。中秋月夜，人们衣着华美，三五结伴，进行赏月活动。八、玩花灯。早在宋代将“一点红”灯放入江中，漂流玩耍。九、吃鸭、螺和芋头。十、饮桂花酒。中秋时节桂花芬芳，饮桂花酿，现在大多红酒代替。
你们国家有和月亮相关的节日吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
