Lektion wird erstellt...
1
Good morning.
2
Dwayne here, Dry Creek Wrangler School.
3
Sitting here in a tack shed today and got a fire back in the wood stove.
4
You'd think it's May 5th.
5
You'd think those days would be about over, but they're not.
6
It's chilly out there this morning.
7
There's a strong wind blowing.
8
So I'm going to sit in here next to the fire and have me some coffee and have a cigar.
9
This is a Perdomo lot number 23.
10
That's the lead Nicaragua.
11
I've never had one before, but one of the students this week, we just finished up our first week of class for the year, and one of the students brought some cigars and he gave me a couple of these,
12
and I'm really liking them.
13
If you were to ask me, Dwayne, name one thing that has helped make you a better horseman?
14
I would have to say one of the things is regret.
15
Regret.
16
Dwayne, what is one of the things that has made you a better human being to your fellow man?
17
There's a lot of things.
18
But one of the things I'd have to say is regret.
19
You know, I look back at horses I had 20, 25 years ago when I didn't know anything and I didn't have the temperament that I have today.
20
And I look back and I got this horse and I remember where this horse was.
21
And I remember, however unintentionally,
22
however non-maliciously, I remember to where I took that horse.
23
And I look back at that today and there's a tinge of regret.
24
I did not put that horse on the best path possible.
25
Not deliberately, but just out of ignorance and youth and impatience.
26
And I regret that.
27
The definition of regret is a disappointment or a sadness over something that you've done in the past.
28
Basically, that's the definition.
29
I look back over the years.
30
And, you know, so I just turned 57.
31
and you know so there's enough years now to look back at
32
and I look at relationships I've had friends and and a family
33
and you know everything and and I look at how I responded to this person
34
and how I reacted to this person and what I did with this person and and I have regrets
35
I wished I hadn't done that wish that hadn't turned out that way
36
there's a trend going on at least in this country maybe
37
in other countries i don't know today with this self-help movement
38
where people say no regrets no regrets well let me let me tell you okay
39
if we were sitting out here some of us sitting around
40
the fire like we do every week at the school and everybody just talking and telling stories and catching up and just,
41
and you're one of those people you speak up and say, I have no regrets in my life because everything that happened in the past made me who I am today.
42
I wouldn't say anything.
43
I wouldn't step in and say anything, but I'm going to just let you know right now, you would be placed in a book inside of me.
44
Your name would be written down a book of a person
45
that I will never respect and that I will surely never trust.
46
Regret is not about us.
47
Now stop and listen to me, okay?
48
Regret is not about you.
49
Regret is a safety mechanism for those around us.
50
If we feel regret for how we hurt somebody else based on decisions that we made,
51
we are less likely to hurt them again in the same way.
52
We are less likely to hurt somebody else in the same way that we hurt that person.
53
We are less likely to make the same approach to our horse.
54
We saw it didn't work.
55
We saw that it didn't put them on a good path.
56
And we're like, man, I wish I had done that different.
57
That's regret.
58
If you go through life with an attitude of no regrets for anything I've done in life,
59
that is the attitude of a sociopath or a psychopath,
60
someone who has no empathy for other life around them, be it man or animal.
61
And so we need, we need to embrace our regrets.
62
I know that's very against the grain.
63
That's very swimming upstream against attitudes and philosophies today.
64
I don't care.
65
I don't care.
66
People who say I have no regrets in life,
67
they end up being the most arrogant people because the regrets that you have are regret for what you
68
intentionally or unintentionally caused somebody else.
69
Your regret's not about you.
70
I regret that I hurt that person.
71
I was young.
72
I was ignorant.
73
I didn't know how to, um, I didn't know how to go through some of this, this new adulting thing.
74
I didn't know how to handle it.
75
And so I handled it like this.
76
And I look back now from a place of experience and a place of maturity and a place of sadness.
77
And I look back and I say, I wish I had been wiser.
78
I wish I had been gentler.
79
I wish I had been more experienced.
80
I wish I had not hurt that person that way.
81
However unintentional it was.
82
We need regrets.
83
Okay.
84
And And I'm going to give my, well, this is all my opinion.
85
I'm going to give my opinion here.
86
I think a lot of these,
87
especially men out there who are motivators for young men,
88
I think they're borderline psychopaths psychopaths.
89
I think some of them are borderline sociopaths.
90
And my understanding is the difference between a sociopath and a psychopath.
91
A sociopath is made that way by society and a psychopath is born that way.
92
I don't know.
93
I'm not educated like that.
94
But people who are, I'm so much about me, I have no empathy for you.
95
I don't care about you.
96
And they push this, especially in young men, like you've been hurt, you know,
97
you've been hurt from your dating life and been hurt by women and hurt by relationships and hurt by jobs.
98
You need to just think about yourself
99
and you just need to go through life like a big giant hammer smashing through glass
100
and the devil take the hindmost
101
and they just will put a bullet in your head
102
and let you die like a dog
103
because all you're going to become is a snapping dog that's going to snap at anybody.
104
You don't know if they're reaching out to pet you or smack you, but you go through life a person that's just snapping, just a snapping dog.
105
And you're not fit for society if you become that, if you let them turn you into that.
106
I can do whatever I want, and if it makes me better, I have no regrets.
107
Well, it's not about you.
108
What are you doing to those in your life around you?
109
What kind of tailspin are you sending their life into?
110
You hate what people have done to you.
111
You hate what people have turned you into.
112
Are you going to let that hate of them turn you into the same thing?
113
someone who has no empathy, someone who has no regret, someone who looks back at poor decisions without any tinge of regret,
114
of disappointment in what you accomplished, of sorrow.
115
You can't do that.
116
A man, a man regrets poor choices.
117
A rock doesn't.
118
And by rock, I don't mean this metaphor.
119
I mean a stinking stone.
120
I mean an actual stinking stone on the ground, a block of wood.
121
Okay.
122
An inanimate, unliving, unthinking, unfeeling object doesn't feel anything, does not feel empathy, does not feel regret.
123
It's just this nonsense, this nonsense on the Internet today that's being spewed out,
124
that it's all about you.
125
I've talked about this before.
126
You are an empty, you are an empty, pointless, thoughtless, nothing.
127
If your life and your feelings and your view of the past is only seen through the periscope of you,
128
of you, And that's where this whole no regrets come in.
129
You dang sure better have regrets or you ain't going to be worth a hill of beans as a human being.
130
Okay?
131
You cannot grow.
132
You cannot mature.
133
You cannot get better.
134
You can't become anything of value to yourself or to anyone else if you shut the door to regrets.
135
Now, you don't let regrets drag you down.
136
You don't let them destroy you.
137
All right, I've talked about this before.
138
You don't let the man that you used to be destroy the man
139
that you are today or the man that you're trying to be today.
140
All right.
141
But balanced regret is what helps you become a better man.
142
Unbalanced guilt is what destroys you.
143
So, unbalanced guilt of who you were and what you were in the past or today destroys you.
144
Balanced, open-eyed, thoughtful regret of poor decisions you made in the past is what helps you build
145
and become better and become stronger.
146
That is that check valve that helps you not make that decision again.
147
that helps you not lose your temper of that horse again, that helps you not thoughtlessly,
148
cruelly hurt that person again, that helps you not selfishly do whatever, okay?
149
Regret, balanced regret is necessary.
150
Unbalanced guilt will destroy you.
151
That's not what I'm talking about.
152
Okay?
153
The more, listen, listen, the more you grow,
154
the more you mature, the less self-centered you are,
155
the more things you will see in the past. that you will regret.
156
If you have no regrets, you have no growth.
157
You have no growth.
158
And you say, Duane, I'm looking back and I'm seeing more and more things in my life that I'm like, man, I'm kind of embarrassed.
159
I'm kind of sad.
160
I wish I hadn't done it. That means you're growing.
161
That means you're seeing more things, that this is not good behavior.
162
This is not how a good human being acts.
163
This is not how we treat other people.
164
This is not how we treat animals.
165
This is not how we behave like this.
166
And you didn't feel regret about it before because you hadn't grown enough to realize that that was like really cheap,
167
really low, very selfish, very arrogant behavior.
168
The humbler you get, the humbler you get, The more you understand, the more you understand, the more you regret.
169
But at the same time, you keep that balance.
170
You're like, man, I wish I hadn't done it.
171
I wish I knew better back then.
172
That's healthy.
173
There's nothing wrong with that. But you keep controlling.
174
You say, but I'm not back there now.
175
And I'm not going to do that anymore.
176
And that's the person I was, but that's not the person who I am today.
177
And so you don't let crushing guilt destroy you,
178
but you don't let a lack of regret destroy you on the other end of the spectrum.
179
Okay.
180
So I just, this, this subject,
181
this thought has been on my mind for a long time now. and uh
182
so i just i felt you know it was time it
183
was time to address this okay uh it was time to uh
184
kind of sit down
185
and say hey let's let's take a look at this this attitude this um this self view
186
that so many people are taking up today that is so arrogant and so self-centered and so destructive.
187
Okay?
188
All right.
189
So anyhow, I hope that maybe clarified a little bit, helped you a little bit, opened your eyes a little bit.
190
And so, and I hope the wind dies down out here and we can get a little bit done outside.
191
So we just finished.
192
Today is May 5th, I think.
193
Yes, May 5th.
194
So this week we finished our very first week of class for this year.
195
And today's the 5th.
196
It's Sunday.
197
tomorrow we have this next week's class.
198
They start rolling in and so we begin the second week.
199
We're looking forward to it
200
and we will keep you guys up to date as we go along with the school
201
and then when we get next year, we haven't even started for next year booking or anything,
202
but when we get that ferried out and hammered out with schedule and everything, we'll let you know.
203
We'll get it up on the website.
204
Okay?
205
Until then, be logical. Be reasonable. Be safe. Have fun. And be humble. And be humble.
206
And we'll talk to you guys next time.

Über diese Lektion
In dieser Lektion übst du das Verstehen von authentischer, alltäglicher Englischsprache, wie sie in der Video-Gesprächsführung verwendet wird. Du wirst nicht nur die Bedeutung von "Regret" (Reue) vertiefen, sondern auch lernen, wie man langsame, reflexive Redewendungen nachahmt. Der Fokus liegt auf der Verbesserung deiner Aussprache und deiner Fähigkeit, natürliche Pausen und Intonation nachzuahmen – ideal für das Shadowing-Training.
Wichtige Vokabeln und Sätze
- Regret – Reue, Bedauern (Beispiel: "I have regrets about my past actions.")
- Temperament – Temperament, Verhalten (Beispiel: "He has a calm temperament.")
- Unintentionally – unbeabsichtlich (Beispiel: "I hurt her unintentionally.")
- Self-help movement – Selbsthilfebewgung (Beispiel: "The self-help movement promotes positive thinking.")
- Safety mechanism – Sicherheitsmechanismus (Beispiel: "Regret acts as a safety mechanism.")
Übungstipps für Shadowing
Der Sprecher im Video spricht langsam und reflektiert, was ideal fürs Shadowing ist. Nutze folgende Tipps, um deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern: Shadow speech funktioniert am besten, wenn du den Text in kurze Abschnitte aufteilst. Höre dir jeweils 5–10 Sekunden an, pausiere und wiederhole sofort. Achte auf die tiefe, ruhende Stimme des Sprechers – versuche, die gleiche Tonhöhe und Pausen nachzuahmen. Dies hilft, natürliche Rhythmen zu internalisieren. Ein guter shadowing site kann dir dabei helfen, die Aufnahmen zu wiederholen, aber auch ohne Tools kannst du erfolgreich üben: Wiederhole die Sätze so oft, bis sie flüssig klingen. Denke daran: Englisch Shadowing ist nicht nur about Nachahmen, sondern auch about das Gefühl der Sprache zu verstehen. Der Sprecher redet über Reue – lasse dich von seiner Emotionalität leiten, um die Intonation richtig zu treffen. Mit regelmäßiger Übung wirst du merken, dass deine Fähigkeit, schnell und genau zu sprechen, stark zunimmt – shadowspeaks also zu deiner Stärke!
Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | has helped · has made · you've done |
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | would be placed · would be written · is made |
| Relativsätze who / which + Satz – eine Zusatzinformation über eine Person oder Sache | someone who has · People who say · people who are |
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.
