Hi, welcome to the vocabulary lesson for Stand Out.
2
Let's start in the first paragraph.
3
We have the phrase, nobody gets unanimous praise ever.
4
Unanimous, unanimous.
5
Unanimous means 100%, and it means opinion or like voting, right?
6
So it means 100 % of people agree, right?
7
So unanimous means everybody agrees.
8
So unanimous praise means praise from everyone.
9
100 % of people praise you, say nice things to you.
10
Well, this quote from Seth Godin, he says,
11
nobody gets unanimous praise right nobody gets praise from everybody 100 of the time right
12
sometimes people criticize you sometimes people don't like you right
13
it's never unanimous praise never unanimous liking never all the time never everyone okay so unanimous meaning everybody 100 all right
14
In the next sentence, it says, the best the timid can hope for is to be unnoticed.
15
Timid means not strong, not bold, B -O -L -D, not courageous, right?
16
It means you're a little bit afraid, a little bit kind of weak and afraid, timid.
17
Timid means you're afraid to be noticed.
18
You're afraid to be strong.
19
timid like a rabbit a rabbit is a timid animal right rabbits hide
20
they stay low they're kind of scared very easily right that's that's timid all right
21
and then the next sentence says criticism comes to those who stand out
22
if you're not timid if you stand out you get criticism
23
stand out that's the title of this article what does it
24
mean to stand out to stand out a two -word verb well to stand out means to be different
25
and noticed it has this idea of that people see you they notice
26
that you are different they see that you are different it's the opposite of timid it's the opposite of invisible Right?
27
So invisible means no one sees you.
28
Stand out means everybody sees you.
29
Easy to see means stand out, to stand out.
30
So if you stand out, if everybody sees you because you're different, well, you get criticism, right?
31
In fact, some cultures, this is a strong idea.
32
I know Japanese culture has this idea.
33
People who stand out, people who are different, they get criticized.
34
I think they have this saying, they say, the nail.
35
The nail, right?
36
You build a house with a nail.
37
If it stands up, then it gets hit.
38
It gets hammered, right?
39
It means it stands out, so people want to hit it it's the same idea
40
if you are different people want to criticize you
41
so that's that's what he's saying criticism comes to those who stand out
42
and yeah that's true all right next paragraph we have uh the phrase figuring out he says
43
if you're like most people you learned in first grade
44
that's when you started figuring out
45
that the safe thing to do was to fit in well
46
first let's talk about fit in fit in is the opposite
47
of stand out to fit in means be the same
48
it means be the same as everyone else right it means
49
you're not noticed you're not different you fit in you're the same
50
so seth godin says in first grade
51
when you were a child you learned to fit in you learned
52
it's the safe thing to do it's more safe to fit in it's more safe to be the same
53
he said you you started figuring out now to figure out means to learn
54
or to understand okay so to figure out something means to learn something to understand something Okay?
55
To figure out.
56
And then to fit in again means to be the same.
57
Opposite of stand out.
58
Okay, then he says the next sentence, a little strange phrase here.
59
The safe thing to do was to color inside the lines.
60
Color inside the lines.
61
Okay, this is a sort of an English, maybe American idea.
62
To color inside the lines means to follow the rules.
63
And it comes from coloring books, right?
64
Little children, they have books, right?
65
They color on the books, right?
66
Different colors.
67
There's a picture of a, I don't know, Mickey Mouse.
68
And there's no color.
69
And the children, they color the books with pens or crayons.
70
Well, if you color inside the lines, you're very careful, very neat.
71
Most children do not color inside the lines.
72
They color everywhere on the page.
73
But later, their parents or the teacher says, color inside the lines.
74
So this phrase, it's an idiom, it's slang.
75
It means follow the rules.
76
To color inside the lines means to follow rules.
77
All right.
78
Next paragraph, we have the phrase playing it safe.
79
Playing it safe, following the rules.
80
We've had this phrase before.
81
To play it safe means to be careful.
82
To be careful.
83
To be timid, maybe.
84
Be very, very careful.
85
That's playing it safe or to play it safe.
86
All right.
87
And then at the end of that paragraph, we see that it says, following the rules.
88
However, these rules set a pattern for most people, like your boss.
89
And that pattern is awfully dangerous.
90
Awfully dangerous.
91
Here, awfully means very.
92
Awfully means very.
93
This is kind of casual English, and we often use this awfully good means very good.
94
Or I'm awfully hungry means I'm very hungry.
95
That is awfully dangerous means that is very dangerous.
96
So we can use this word awfully, awfully, and it has to be with ly, awfully, and it means very.
97
All right, next paragraph.
98
You can see the sentence.
99
In a busy marketplace, not standing out is the same as being invisible.
100
Okay, it's just the opposite of standing out, right?
101
Not standing out means not noticed, not different.
102
Okay.
103
Next paragraph.
104
The good news is that the prevailing wisdom makes your job even easier.
105
Okay, wisdom means knowledge, right?
106
Prevailing means common, normal.
107
What most people think.
108
Prevailing wisdom is means the common knowledge, the common idea, the normal ideas.
109
That's prevailing wisdom.
110
Again, prevailing meaning normal or usual.
111
So the usual wisdom, the usual idea.
112
So most people think standing out is bad.
113
That's the prevailing idea.
114
That's the usual idea.
115
Most people think, oh, standing out, that's bad.
116
Don't stand out.
117
And that's good for you because it makes your job easy.
118
So he says, since just about everyone else is petrified of being different,
119
you can be remarkable with even less effort.
120
Petrified.
121
Here, petrified means afraid.
122
It means very, very afraid.
123
Very, very scared.
124
To be petrified means to be super scared.
125
Super afraid.
126
He says, most people are petrified of being different.
127
Most people are very afraid to be different.
128
But that's good news because it means it's very easy to be different if you want to.
129
there's not a lot of competition all right and then he says
130
if successful new products are the ones that stand out and most people desire not to stand out you're set All right.
131
To be set.
132
To be set means you're in a great position.
133
Your set means you have a good situation.
134
Your set means you will be successful right it's this idea
135
that uh you have a very good potential you have a very good situation
136
it means everything is good for you you're set right
137
it means you it's kind of like you're lucky maybe
138
that's an easy way to think about it you're super lucky right you're set
139
so if i uh someone gives me a lot of money, say, wow, I'm set.
140
It means everything is good for me.
141
I'm very lucky.
142
I have a great situation.
143
All right.
144
Okay.
145
And then we go down a few paragraphs.
146
We see the sentence.

152
Security means safety.
153
If you have security, it means you are safe.
154
It means you know what will happen.
155
You feel safe. So security.
156
We manage to keep a safe but boring job.
157
We make a little money.
158
Maybe we get a small promotion.
159

160

163

164
A job with more money.
165
Or a job with a better position.

170
I got a promotion.
171
All right.
172
Next paragraph.
173

To attain it.
178
But it has the idea attaining means you get something because you worked hard.
179
It has an idea of success.
180
Like you had to try.
181
So if you attain a big success, it means you get a big success.
182
To attain, to get.
183
And then I say we never attain big success.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
