1
Hey Psych2Goers, do you have low self-esteem?
2
Your self-esteem is a culmination of your physical self-image, accomplishments, capabilities, and perceived success.
3
In short, it's your opinion of yourself.
4
Some of us are blessed to have an environment that fosters high self-esteem.
5
Others are not so fortunate.
6
But despite unfortunate circumstances or events, you can cultivate high self-esteem.
7
Think of the protagonist who had a difficult childhood or a rough start in life.
8
despite the trials they faced, they were able to forge ahead.
9
Hopefully these few tips can help you believe in yourself again.
10
Number one, stop comparing yourself to others.
11
Sometimes comparisons can be helpful.
12
Using them as a template for improvement can inspire you to make changes.
13
Then again, sometimes they are a way for you to deconstruct yourself
14
and discover all the things that you think are wrong with you.
15
According to an article in Psychology Today, written by a physician, Dr. Baili, We can remind ourselves that people's outsides can't be compared to our insides.
16
This is because people can curate their social media versions of their lives
17
and they can do the same with their public lives.
18
You might have experienced being shocked when a couple appeared happy
19
and solid in a relationship until one of them announced their breakup.
20
Of course, we wish others well, but remember that you don't actually know what goes on behind closed doors
21
when their lives make you feel bad about your own.
22
Number two, overcome perfectionism.
23
I know, I know you're just trying to do your best and work hard to achieve your goals, but how can we know if we've crossed the line?
24
Have you been experiencing signs of procrastination, restlessness, being motivated by fear, and especially low self-esteem, well,
25
these are signs of a perfectionist.
26
Despite what social media tries to portray as a perfect life, creating one for yourself can lead to maladaptive rumination and deterioration of mental health.
27
Instead of achieving more, you may undergo more setbacks than you desire.
28
According to Oregon Counseling, we can take steps to overcome perfectionism through tendency awareness,
29
allowing room for mistakes, focusing on meaning over perfectionism, and setting reasonable goals for ourselves.
30
Number three, figure out what you're good at and develop it.
31
How do your abilities and self-esteem go hand in hand?
32
Well, your sense of purpose will increase.
33
When that happens, your self-esteem grows when you demonstrate to yourself your ability and competencies.
34
When you gain deeper fulfillment and inspire others around you, you can improve your self-esteem.
35
So how do you identify your abilities?
36
Try listing down what you love doing and your previous accomplishments.
37
It can be daily blogging, baking, cooking, or even science experiments that you did at a science fair.
38
Diving into activities that allow you to show off or discover your talents is a start to figuring out your strengths, which bring you confidence and purpose in life.

42
And number four, focus on what you can change and the things that are in your control.
43
Dwelling on your worries can be a potent poison that whittles down your resolve.
44
It can trap you in an illusion that makes you believe that progress or anything remotely positive is impossible.
45
Instead of focusing on these negative thoughts, try focusing on what you can't change.
46
One way to overcome this is to label your thoughts as productive worry and unproductive worry.

Für wen ist dieses Video geeignet?

Dieses Video eignet sich perfekt für Englischlerner, die ihre Sprachkenntnisse kombinieren und gleichzeitig etwas über Selbsteinschätzung lernen möchten. Es ist ideal für Fortgeschrittene, die an ihrem shadow speech arbeiten oder Englisch sprechen üben wollen, da der Dialog klar und verständlich ist, aber auch komplexe Gedanken ausdrückt. Zielsetzer, die Englisch lernen mit Videos wollen, profitieren von der natürlichen Sprache und den praktischen Tipps.

Wörter und Redewendungen, die man sich abschauen sollte

  • Culmination: die Spitze, der Höhepunkt. "Your self-esteem is a culmination of..." – "Deine Selbsteinschätzung ist der Höhepunkt von..."
  • Maladaptive rumination: maladaptive Grübeln. "Creating a perfect life can lead to maladaptive rumination..." – "Das Schaffen eines perfekten Lebens kann zu maladaptivem Grübeln führen..."
  • Whittles down: schmälert, schwächt. "Worries can whittle down your resolve..." – "Sorgen können deinen Willen schwächen..."

Wie man den Akzent richtig hört und nachahmt

Der Sprecher verwendet eine klare, amerikanische Aussprache mit natürlicher Intonation. Achte besonders auf Wörter wie culmination (kʌlmɪˈneɪʃn) oder procrastination (prəˌkræstɪˈneɪʃn), bei denen die Betonung auf der zweiten Silbe liegt. Um shadow speech zu üben, nutze eine shadowing site und wiederhole die Sätze direkt nach dem Sprecher – dies hilft, die Rhythmus und die Betonung zu internalisieren. Achte auch auf Pausen, z. B. nach "Think of the protagonist..." – sie geben dem Satz Struktur und machen die Sprache flüssiger. Mit solchen Übungen verbessern sich nicht nur deine Aussprache, sondern auch dein Selbstvertrauen im Englisch sprechen üben.

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.
