Be Myself
做我自己 means “be myself” or just “being me” in Chinese.
Believe in Yourself
自分を信じる means “believe in yourself,” “have faith in yourself,” or “believe in myself” (can be myself or yourself depending on if you're saying it to yourself or someone else).
Note: Because this selection contains some special Japanese Hiragana characters, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
Use Hard Work to Overcome Adversity
刻苦耐勞 is a Chinese proverb that suggests that you should always bear hardships and work hard.
Some will translate it as a suggestion to be assiduous and long-suffering.
My favorite is to use this to remind myself to be hard-working and capable of overcoming adversity.
Forever In My Heart
永遠在我心 means “forever in my heart” or “always in my heart” in Chinese.
This is the shorter, somewhat lyrical version of this phrase.
永遠 forever/eternal
在 at/in/exists
我 me/myself/my
心 heart/mind/soul
Forgive Yourself / Release Yourself
我を許す is how to write “forgive yourself” in Japanese.
The first two characters mean “regarding myself.”
The last two characters mean “to forgive,” “to excuse (from),” “to pardon,” “to release,” “to let off,” “to permit,” “to allow,” and/or “to approve.”
Note: Because this selection contains some special Japanese Hiragana characters, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
I am the Master of My Destiny
我命由我不由天 is often translated as “The one that shapes my destiny will always be myself rather than the God” or “Rather than Heaven, I am the master of my fate.”
Breaking down the words directly:
我命 = My fate/destiny
由我 = depends (on) me
不 = not
由天 dependant (on) Heaven.
