Hey everybody, welcome back to High Level Listening.
2
We've got another B2 and C1 Level English video for you today,
3
where we're going to really try to test your listening skills and help you push through into that higher level English.
4
Today we're talking about something that can make even your free time feel strangely stressful.
5
It's kind of that pressure to always be productive.
6
Yeah, exactly.
7
Does this ever sound like you?
8
Imagine you've finished work, you've answered all your emails, and you've done everything that you actually needed to do.
9
But then, sitting on the sofa or relaxing for an hour somehow starts to make you feel guilty.
10
Like maybe there's a little voice in your head saying you should be exercising, you should be learning something,
11
or cleaning the house, or finally tackling one of the million things on your to -do list.
12
I feel like that's my entire generation for sure.
13
So and that's what's interesting about today's B2 and C1 discussion because that's what it's going to be about today.
14
So being productive is obviously useful.
15
Setting goals and improving yourself can be very positive things.
16
But when does being disciplined turned into putting yourself under this constant pressure that you can't even take a moment to relax.
17
Yeah, so today we're going deeper into that very question.
18
Has being busy become a kind of status symbol?
19
Has self -improvement turned into another form of work?
20
And have we become so uncomfortable with doing nothing that we've forgotten how to properly switch off?
21
Absolutely.
22
And this lesson is really going to challenge your listening and vocabulary skills in that higher level English.
23
And if you want to improve your English and get better at expressing your own opinions, kind of on deeper topics like this,
24
come check out our B2 and C1 active discussion pack.
25
We've kind of revamped some of the worksheets to kind of make them a little bit more easily digestible and practical.
26
So you'll get these guided speaking exercises, vocabulary lists, full transcripts, of course, if you want to follow along,
27
and the MP3s that you can help you turn your passive English into more active speaking.
28
So you'll find the link in the description and the pinned comment below.
29
Okay, so let's start with something that I've definitely noticed.
30
People almost seem to, I don't know, take pride in how busy they are.
31
You ask someone how they've been, and instead of simply saying good, they'll say, oh my gosh, I've been absolutely slammed, or it's been nonstop lately.
32
And sure, sometimes life genuinely is hectic, but I think we've gradually developed this mindset where being constantly busy is somehow a measure of success.
33
The more commitments you have, the more important you appear to be.
34
If your schedule is packed and people are constantly demanding your time and attention,
35
it can give you this sense of purpose and make you feel indispensable.
36
However, on the flip side, if you've had a relatively quiet week with hardly anything going on,
37
you might actually feel a little embarrassed to admit it as though you're not being productive enough.
38
There's kind of this underlying pressure to constantly have something on your plate.
39
And I think we've reached a point where slowing down is almost mistaken for sort of a lack of ambition.
40
Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.
41
Although I wonder if some of it is simply
42
because being busy often indicates that you are engaged with your life or like you said, kind of important.
43
Having responsibilities that matter can also give your days a sense of structure.
44
But also if you've got work projects, hobbies, friends, family commitments, and plans for the weekend, naturally you're going to have a fairly full schedule.
45
And I don't think having a busy life is inherently problematic
46
because there are people who genuinely thrive on having a lot going on.
47
Absolutely.
48
And I'm not suggesting everyone should just clear their calendar and spend their days staring at the wall.
49
I think the real issue is
50
when being constantly busy becomes a reflection kind of of your self -worth rather than simply a description of your schedule.
51
And I'll be one of the first to admit that I've fallen into that mindset myself sometimes.
52
I'll have an unexpected hour to spare and my immediate instinct is to think, okay, what can I knock off my to -do list?
53
Rather than actually just embracing the opportunity to slow down, it's almost as though we've conditioned ourselves to believe
54
that every single spare moment means to be productive and that any time spent doing absolutely nothing is somehow time wasted, right?
55
Laying in bed, scrolling through your phone, etc. What's particularly frustrating for me is that even when we do carve out some much needed downtime,
56
there really is still this lingering sense of guilt that we should be doing something more worthwhile, right?
57
It's as if we become so preoccupied with making the most of our time that we've forgotten how to actually enjoy it.
58
Yeah, for sure.
59
And then technology has exacerbated that a little as well.
60
I remember growing up, there used to be little gaps in the day where you just couldn't accomplish things.
61
Maybe you just waiting for a bus, you're standing in a queue, or you're sitting in a waiting room.
62
But now in those same scenarios, you can answer emails, you can organize your calendar, or you could listen to an educational podcast,
63
or deal with some life admin on your phone.
64
There's no dead time anymore, provided that you have a phone or smart device and the internet.
65
And I suppose to technology's credit, that can be genuinely useful.
66
If I answer three emails while waiting 20 minutes for the bus, maybe I freed up 20 minutes later.
67
It's true.
68
Absolutely.
69
And answering a few emails while you're waiting for an appointment definitely seems productive, at least on the surface level.
70
But are we really gaining anything
71
if we feel compelled to fill every spare moment with a brand new task
72
or another task that we need to finish, right?
73
I think that's where technology has actually made things worse.
74
We've become so accustomed to being constantly connected that even five minutes of doing absolutely nothing can feel like a missed opportunity.
75
And the irony is, despite having all these tools designed to save us time,
76
I don't think we're necessarily any less overwhelmed or we're saving ourselves any real amount of time.
77
If anything, we just keep piling more onto our plates.
78
So while I can appreciate the convenience, right, I do wonder whether all this efficiency is genuinely making our lives easier
79
or whether it's just raising our expectations of how much we should be accomplishing.
80
Yeah, right.
81
That's painfully true.
82
And perhaps there's difference between being efficient and being genuinely productive.
83
You can become incredibly efficient at completing tasks without questioning whether all those tasks actually needed to be done
84
so urgently or so immediately.
85
And there's a temptation to judge a good day by how many boxes you've ticked.
86
So you answer messages, you reorganize something or clear your inbox and deal with lots of small jobs, if you're constantly doing something,
87
that doesn't necessarily mean you're moving towards anything genuinely important.
88
And think of all the busy work that we had to do at school.
89
You know, if you finished your task quite early, your teacher would give you something useless to do just to keep you busy
90
and keep you occupied while the other students did something, right?
91
So I think part of the appeal of those smaller tasks is that they give us this instant sense of accomplishment,
92
a quick dopamine hit, tackling something more demanding
93
that requires a couple of hours of uninterrupted concentration might actually be far more worthwhile.
94
But ticking five easy things off your to -do list gives you that immediate satisfaction.
95
And it's almost as though, we've become conditioned to prioritize these quick wins over the meaningful progress.
96
And that's where I think busyness can become a distraction in and of itself.
97
We get so caught up in the satisfaction of getting things done
98
that we don't necessarily stop to question whether those things are actually worth our time and energy.
99
Yeah, I agree.
100
Although ordinary life does contain lots of boring jobs that genuinely still need doing, like bills,
101
laundry, going to doctors or dentist appointments and things like shopping aren't meaningless just because they aren't exciting or advance your career.
102
So perhaps there's another trap there, putting pressure on ourselves to make everything we do feel really significant.
103
Not every Tuesday afternoon has to move you closer to life's purpose.
104
I think sometimes you just have to get through the washing.
105
Okay, let's move on to the second part of today's discussion.
106
Has self -improvement turned into another form of work?
107
These days, it feels like modern self -improvement is more demanding and more engrossing than ever.
108
So work is not the only area where we're encouraged to perform better anymore.
109
We're also supposed to optimize everything outside of work too.
110
So you shouldn't just exercise, you should have a training plan and track your progress.
111
You shouldn't just take a nap.
112
You should monitor your sleep, count how many steps you take or your screen time, your habits, your reading.
113
Suddenly, all of our lives, even the relaxing parts, have metrics.
114
attached to them.
115
We're maxing everything, right?
116
Looks maxing, we're protein maxing, fiber maxing, sleep maxing, everything we do.
117
Now we have to do it all and there's no excuse for not doing it perfectly.
118
So it's understandable why some people think this whole approach is exhausting.
119
Well, yeah, and that's definitely where I have some mixed feelings because I'm actually a big believer in setting goals.
120
Whether you're trying to get stronger, put some money aside, or become more fluent in another language,
121
being able to track your progress can be incredibly motivating, especially when your initial enthusiasm starts to wear off.
122
But I do think there's a tipping point where this self -improvement stops feeling empowering
123
and it starts feeling like another full -time responsibility.
124
You can't just go for a walk and appreciate a beautiful evening anymore, you've got to hit a certain number of steps.
125
Even activities that are supposed to be enjoyable can become yet another obligation, as though everything you do needs to contribute towards some bigger goal.
126
I think about a lot of people who can't just sit down and draw a pretty picture.
127
They have to think about how to monetize their art in the future or something like that.
128
Right.
129
Yeah.
130
You can't do anything for the sake of doing it.
131
and then the slightly absurd thing is
132
that even relaxation can become something to optimize and you start meditating
133
because you want to relax and then you might get annoyed with yourself
134
because you're not relaxing efficiently enough and then social media probably intensifies
135
that pressure because we're exposed to other people's routines whether they're real
136
or not you might see someone on Instagram waking up at five, going to the gym, meal prepping,
137
journaling, reading and running a business before you've even had a coffee.
138
So it's easy to feel like you're failing and you're leaving
139
so much on the table that even trying it is barely worth it because you'll never do it as good as that.
140
I know, especially as a beginner, you start as a beginner and then you see everybody on the hard mode and you think,
141
oh, I can do that.
142
And you fail immediately.
143
So it's It's just a lot of pressure overall.
144
I think social media makes that pressure particularly difficult to escape.
145
Even when you're completely aware that someone's showing you a carefully curated version of their life, it's really hard not to compare it to your own,
146
which, I mean, is a much messier reality than what's curated on my phone on Instagram.
147
That being said, I wouldn't go so far as to say self -improvement content is inherently harmful.
148
I picked up some genuinely useful habits from people online.
149
But when you're constantly bombarded with advice about how to optimize every aspect of your life,
150
it can really leave you feeling like you're perpetually falling short.
151
You're not getting up early enough.
152
You're not working out consistently enough.
153
You're not investing wisely enough or making the most of your free time.
154
And at some point, all that supposedly helpful advice starts to feel like a never ending list of personal shortcomings.
155
Yeah, right.
156
And you're often comparing yourself to completely different people.
157
Your fitness comes from one person and then your career expectations come from someone else
158
and your finances from another influencer and your social life from another person entirely.
159
But in your head, you then create one imaginary superhuman who does all of these things perfectly.
160
And then you wonder why you can't keep up.
161
That's such a good point.
162
And I think that's that same mentality has started creeping into our hobbies too.
163
You may take up baking or something because you find it relaxing.
164
And before long, someone's telling you, oh, you should start selling these.
165
I hear that all the time, right?
166
If something is even remotely good, oh, you should start selling these.
167
Maybe you develop a passion for photography and suddenly people are encouraging you to turn it into a business.
168
All right.
169
Monetize, monetize.
170
You have to monetize everything.
171
It's almost as though simply enjoying something isn't a good enough reason to keep doing it anymore.
172
That's kind of this new sort of underlying expectation that if you've got a particular skill or a talent,
173
you ought to be doing something productive with it.
174
Preferably something that brings in a little extra cash.
175
Right.
176
Yes.
177
And it is the easiest way to suck the fun out of a hobby is trying to monetize it.
178
But yeah, as you said, we're in such a side hustle culture at the moment, it seems.
179
I will say, though, turning something you love into an income stream can be life changing.
180
There are people who have built successful careers from hobbies.
181
And if you're doing something like that and you still genuinely enjoy it and you make something that people genuinely want.
182
I don't think there's anything wrong with spotting that opportunity.
183
And then a side hustle can also give you more financial independence
184
or maybe even allow you to change jobs or leave a job that you dislike.
185
It's not the dream, though.
186
That's what we all dream of.
187
And of course, I completely agree that turning a passion into a career could be incredibly rewarding.
188
And for some people, it opens doors they never even imagined were possible.
189
But I do think there's a downside to approaching every single hobby as a potential business opportunity.
190
The moment you start worrying about customers, deadlines, or whether something is profitable, your relationship with that activity can fundamentally change.
191
And I think there's something really liberating about allowing yourself to be completely mediocre
192
or horrible at something without feeling the need to improve it or justify it.
193
You can paint terrible pictures that no one would ever buy.
194
You can play tennis without having any competitive ambitions, or you can bake a cake simply because you feel like it.
195
Not everything we do needs to produce a tangible result.
196
Sometimes the enjoyment is more than enough.
197
At least that's what I keep telling myself.
198
Right.
199
Yes.
200
No, I agree.
201
I like that idea.
202
And perhaps that's what gets lost when you're permanently focused on improvement improvement always implies
203
that the current version could be better and
204
that mindset can push you forward but living in it constantly can be exhausting
205
and very demotivating
206
because you never really arrive as soon as one habit becomes established there's another area to work on
207
so it's like climbing a mountain without stopping to enjoy the
208
view on the way up where the mountain keeps growing higher
209
and higher and higher
210
so i know i i do think that's what makes the whole self -improvement mindset
211
so exhausting you finally achieve something you've been working towards
212
and rather than taking a moment to appreciate it you're already setting your sights on the next milestone
213
or what normally happens to me is i get about 90 of the way done
214
and i already i quit that project to think about my next project
215
but you did yeah and you know there's always this supposedly better version of yourself
216
but it's just out of reach okay it's
217
that someone is more disciplined they're more successful
218
and somehow has every aspect of their life figured out
219
and that's who you want to be that's who you're shooting for
220
but I think we need to distinguish between genuinely wanting to grow
221
and constantly feeling dissatisfied with who we currently are you can
222
work towards becoming stronger without being overly critical of your body as it is right now
223
You can pursue a better career without dismissing everything you've already accomplished.
224
And you can strive to become more fluent in a new language while still recognizing just how far you've already come.
225
Those things aren't mutually exclusive.
226
Yeah, I agree.
227
Although maybe a certain amount, a small amount of dissatisfaction can be useful.
228
Ambition often begins by recognizing a gap between where you are
229
and where you would like to be if you were completely satisfied with everything, perhaps we'd never challenge ourselves or grow.
230
Yeah, that's fair.
231
And I wouldn't want to suggest that feeling dissatisfied is always a bad thing.
232
Having ambitions and setting goals can definitely give you a sense of direction, but that doesn't mean every aspect of your life needs to be measured,
233
evaluated, or turned into another personal performance review.
234
Okay, so there you have it.
235
The pressure to be productive goes much deeper than simply having a busy schedule.
236
We've talked about busyness, efficiency, self -improvement, comparison, side hustles, all kinds of different things in today's discussion.
237
And we'd love to hear what you think.
238
Do you feel guilty when you're not being productive?
239
Do you think self -improvement has gone a little too far?
240
And are you comfortable doing absolutely nothing sometimes?
241

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
