What are you trying to do? If a Japanese person with passable English would be able to help, then head on over to a language-exchange website such as InterPals and trade English instruction for whatever you need. If you need someone who speaks high-level English and it's okay if their Japanese is only passable, then go to a forum such as Koohii and make your request to the large population of people learning Japanese. If you need someone high level in both languages, well, you'll have a harder time. Such people are uncommon and not likely to work for free.

the irony. Don't mourn any change of decision here.

“Stay away from what might have been and look at what will be.” ~Marsha Petrie Sue

a structured approach to help you think through problems and solutions in a logical way. There are six basic steps

Define the problem. Figure out what is causing the problem and how it’s causing problems.

Set goals. Decide what you want your solution to address. It’s important that your goals are realistic and concrete.

Think of solutions. Brainstorm possible solutions. You can also ask friends or loved ones for ideas.

Look at the pros and cons. Pick a few possible solutions that you think might work best, and consider the positives and negatives of your choices.

Pick a solution. Remember, it should describe who does what and what you want to achieve.

Evaluate the results. After you put your plan into action, see if it worked as expected. If it didn’t work, see if your solution needs to be modified or if you need to try a different approach.

You may find that getting a tattoo with 'tsuyoku naritai' isn't your solution.

Your response is rather cryptic. What does that content have to do with LizzardWizzard wanting to get a tattoo with a classic Less Wrong phrase on it?

mate thank your for your help, I hope interpals would work out there for me, The thing is I don't want to go meta on this, it's just a reminder for myself and that's it, it wasn't designed as a solution for something else

Japanese ideograms are not the same as 'hieroglyphics,' but here is your sentence:

強くなりたい
