1
This video is about your social skills.
2
There is this problem that a lot of people face and
3
that is that they do not know how to go about talking with people.
4
And today I'm going to be talking about the secret of getting better at talking to people.
5
There is a reason why your social skills are not good enough
6
and I have a brilliant technique to help you solve that.
7
Of course it's going to require practice.
8
Of course it's not going to happen on its own.
9
Of course you'll have to put an effort but before we get into that let us discuss the problem at first.
10
Let us first understand why this is happening with you.
11
First thing that you need to realize over here is that we human beings are not born socially handicapped.
12
We're supposed to be very very very social species on this planet.
13
The reason why you're not being able to gel up with people
14
or get comfortable with people around you get better at talking with them probably lies somewhere in you and
15
that is what we are going to be solving today okay
16
imagine a scenario where a baby is put in a room full of people okay
17
and nobody is coming up to that baby and teaching him
18
or her how to speak
19
or telling a baby okay this is a dog d-o-g this is a dog
20
or you know making sound bow bow this is a dog but the baby anyway learns to speak.
21
So the baby is extremely capable of learning everything on its own.
22
That's how babies anyway learn to talk.
23
And if it is something, even after growing up and adulting and being at the age where you are in your life,
24
wherever you are, and still being able to not hold proper conversations with people,
25
something is wrong in the way you've been dealing with your mind.
26
You've been dealing with your social scenarios.
27
You have been with yourself and we need to change that.
28
If things have to change for you, the effort has to start from within you.
29
It has to start here and automatically everything around you will start to change.
30
And if you are unable to develop social skills in you, it's because you lack practice.
31
You are not exposing your mind to enough interactions.
32
And since you're not exposing your mind to enough interactions, your mind isn't learning.
33
Mind is a brilliant organ.
34
It's supposed to learn the patterns and rules very quickly.
35
All you have to do is expose it more and more and more to interactions.
36
And the mind is brilliant at picking patterns, at picking the rules.
37
Imagine a scenario where you enter a lift, okay, an elevator.
38
and default you turn around and you face in the direction everybody else is facing.
39
Why is it so?
40
Did anybody teach you that?
41
That hey when you enter the elevator you're supposed to turn around
42
and look in the same direction all the others are looking.
43
Why?
44
And why do you find it so difficult to do something elsewise?
45
Imagine entering an elevator
46
and facing opposite from where the other people are facing not
47
looking towards the door rather towards the wall of the elevator imagine doing
48
that how awkward that will feel to you did anybody teach you
49
that no nobody taught you that that is something
50
that you picked up from your environment on your own without realizing
51
that you're learning but you learned it anyway so that's the point here
52
so let's understand that
53
that the fundamental level of skill you already have in you
54
as a human being you're already born with them okay now
55
what you have to do is you have to reveal them
56
you have to unveil your fundamental skills of socializing with people
57
and clear the debris from the top
58
that you have gathered over time just clear that debris
59
and to be fair with you it's not really a mistake it's not really a problem modern times are such
60
that we talk with people more on the phone than face to face
61
that trend of meeting up with people
62
and having a social gathering interacting with human beings is kind
63
of getting obsolete yeah it's kind of it's kind of going out of trend
64
and we are talking more don't get me wrong I'm not saying
65
that it does not happen anymore it happens
66
but with every passing generation we are spending more
67
and more time behind the screens I remember I was what 22 21 22
68
when I got my first phone
69
and my phone was just a rectangular dubba I don't even remember
70
if it had internet it was just to make calls to my mom barely
71
that nothing else
72
but nowadays children get their first phones barely at the age
73
of what six eight ten this is very normal these days
74
I don't want to get to the point where I tell you my feelings about it because they're not gonna be good.
75
I really don't like it.
76
I'm not gonna use the word hate.
77
I don't like it when people,
78
when I see young little children handling phones by themselves and looking at cartoons and with their bare naked eyes.
79
It's not good for them.
80
It's terrible for their eyesight.
81
It's terrible for their eye muscles.
82
And you know, that's the way it is.
83
It's the normal scenario these days.
84
So talking on chats and sending emojis is the way of life these days and emojis and chatting can never,
85
never help you develop the social skills that you need in your life to feel complete, to feel fulfilled.
86
Because as human beings, we crave socializing.
87
We crave to be a part of a group.
88
When you're talking with somebody on the phone, you cannot see their body language.
89
You cannot see, you cannot maintain eye contact with them.
90
You cannot see the proximity at which they are standing with you because they are not standing close to you.
91
They are somewhere, some kilometers away, thousands of kilometers away chit-chatting with you.
92
You cannot see their facial expressions.
93
You cannot see their tonality.
94
Imagine this video goes blank and you can just hear my voice.
95
Will the experience of the video still remain the same?
96
Will it still be able to grab your attention?
97
You'd probably feel like going away from the video in just a few seconds.
98
So that is the idea.
99
Maintaining eye contact, being present in person with somebody
100
while talking with them is what really fulfills your biological need of being a social animal.
101
Now I'm gonna get to the technique that I have for you.
102
It's going to help you and it's fun.
103
You will enjoy it.
104
Do not make it a burden on your head.
105
Take it as something that a friend is telling you.
106
Okay, from my own experience, like just the other day, a few days ago, I remember my gym trainer, he came up to me and asked me in a very simple manner,
107
ma'am, are you an introvert?
108
And I was like okay how do you know she's like
109
no ma'am i just observed i think you're a big introvert
110
i'm like okay i've been working on my social skills for
111
so long no coming back to my otherwise life scenario yeah
112
i am kind of an introvert i do not take pride
113
in it it's just not very it just not comes naturally to me to interact with people
114
and I have lived my life like that.
115
I have actually started putting efforts into mingling with people and this is one technique that I applied.
116
It works for me.
117
It will work for you.
118
It's brilliant.
119
If it does not work, you're free, free to curse me in comments go ahead talk whatever you
120
want to comment below i will not remove your comments okay
121
if it does not work for you but for
122
that to be done you have to first make sure
123
that you do it for 30 days okay
124
if you do it for 30 days
125
and it does not work for you come back
126
and we'll have a talk we're going to chit chat about it no
127
but it won't happen that way i have deep confidence in the technique that that I'm gonna tell you.
128
It's very simple.
129
The name is 101 interactions, 101.
130
Okay.
131
Now, before I get to that, I want you to understand one thing that just watching videos to improve your social skills
132
is just like learning to swim on the internet by watching videos.
133
The simplest and the fastest way to learn to swim would be to put yourself into the water.
134
Go and start swimming.
135
I know when you look at the videos, you get to learn a lot.
136
You understand the best techniques, you understand people's mistakes, you understand what not to do.
137
But just knowing is not enough.
138
Trying, experiencing it firsthand, that is what is required to learn any skill in life.
139
You cannot learn to play a guitar just by looking at videos of people playing guitars
140
or teaching you how to play a guitar.
141
You need to get your hands dirty.
142
This is just a metaphor.
143
By getting your hands dirty, I mean you need to buy a guitar, sit down, practice every day and do it consistently for many, many months.
144
Only then you see some improvement.
145
So that is exactly the point here.
146
Okay, now let's get to the 101 interactions.
147
What is 101?
148
101 interactions are simple, 101 interactions.
149
This is a challenge that we've designed.
150
Okay, I have designed for you.
151
I've done it.
152
It helped me.
153
I am a much, much, much, much better talker, communicator, whatever you may call it, okay?
154
Public speaker.
155
I'm not scared of coming onto a stage and talking with people.
156
Really.
157
I might shiver for a few seconds in the beginning for a few minutes, but otherwise, I think I'm pretty good to go.
158
Yeah.
159
And it does not happen on its own.
160
speaking from my own experience telling you it takes a lot of courage
161
and it takes a lot of practice and experience to do
162
that or to say that even say that okay
163
so in one-on-one interactions challenge what you have to do is
164
you have to start talking with random strangers random people around
165
you they may be stranger they may not be strangers okay
166
what you have to do is you have to just talk with them.
167
Just saying a hi is enough and you'll be surprised how much people are willing to share if you just talk.
168
Just saying a hi, just starting a conversation and you will realize that what all is not inappropriate.
169
You will find out that a lot of things that you probably have in your head
170
that might get inappropriate for somebody are not really inappropriate.
171
The best way to start a conversation with somebody, some people say it, that it is to ask something very personal.
172
Now you'd be like, man, that's very inappropriate.
173
No, it's not.
174
It's not inappropriate.
175
By asking something very personal, I do not mean that you ask them something sexual in nature.
176
No, no, no, No, not at all.
177
By personal, I mean you could go around and ask them, hey, since how long have you been in the city?
178
Or where did you do your first job?
179
By personal, I mean something about them, something about that human being that is close to their heart, that is close to their lives,
180
something that they have experienced in their lives.
181
Okay, so ask something personal and then you will be surprised to see how much they are willing to share.
182
People love talking.
183
People love talking about their experiences, their lives.
184
Just show some interest and show genuine interest.
185
Give them attention.
186
So just saying a hi is also enough.
187
You have to complete 101 interactions in just 30 days.
188
Now this is where the challenge part comes in.
189
See, 101 interactions in a year are very easy.
190
You have to do them in 30 days.
191
You have to finish them in 30 days only then this is a challenge okay
192
and every day keep recording how many times you actually went
193
up to somebody had a conversation with them i'm sharing a
194
tracker with you down below in the description box okay just go to
195
that tracker and start ticking okay start telling yourself
196
that these many interactions are done and by the end of 30 days from now start today
197
or maybe start tomorrow by the end of 30 days your 101 should be ticked see talking to somebody doing
198
that first handshake saying a hello you might feel in your
199
head is very awkward it's not really awkward it is not imagine
200
if i'm sitting in a in a restaurant and there's music playing
201
and somebody comes up to me and says a hi
202
or starts a little conversation at the maximum what can I do I will probably just maybe make an excuse
203
and get out of there or maybe you know tell them
204
that I have something important some important business to take care of
205
and get busy on my phone or something I am obviously not going to insult
206
that person that how dare you talk with me?
207
What kind of a jerk are you?
208
I mean, I'm not going to do that, right?
209
Because why would I?
210
If somebody is being sweet to me, if somebody is being nice to me, I will obviously default, I will have to be nice to that person.
211
It's natural that way.
212
So whatever conversations you're playing in your head, I mean, this is all that can go wrong.
213
It's entirely in your head.
214
It's not something that will come true.
215
It's not something that you want to come true.
216
It is not going to happen that way.
217
These are scenarios.
218
These are lies that you're telling yourself.
219
Just go up, introduce yourself.
220
In formal settings, it's even easier.
221
In formal settings, you're in a meeting, you're doing some business thing of yours on behalf of your office, your company.
222
It's really easy.
223
Hey, hi, I'm so and so.
224
I work at this position.
225
What do you do?
226
Or how are you here?
227
Can I help you with something?
228
Are you feeling comfortable?
229
Something like that.
230
Easy.
231
So the idea is that you have to keep your conversations simple.
232
You can keep them short.
233
It's entirely up to you.
234
You just have to talk.
235
Just have to initiate a conversation.
236
Just maybe a hi is enough.
237
Okay.
238
Just a hi and you run away.
239
That will also do you won't be able to do it
240
that way yeah
241
so just initiating a conversation initially it may be awkward there
242
may be some awkward silences gradually you will see yourself transitioning into deeper conversations
243
and you might actually end up having some very good friends through this method
244
so when i started initially it used to be hard
245
but in just a matter of a few days it got all right it started coming to me naturally
246
and it became a fun little task that i was having for myself
247
and i was actually enjoying
248
that journey in case you're still wondering ma'am what to talk about
249
because this is a genuine problem people might have ma'am okay
250
i go up to a stranger fine i need to rehearse i need to practice i need to
251
go out there and introduce myself to people.
252
What next?
253
Where do I go from there?
254
What do I do after that?
255
What do I talk about?
256
Now this is where I have a brilliant technique for you.
257
Okay, this is included in the 101 challenge.
258
The mnemonic is friend.
259
Friend.
260
It's so easy to remember, right?
261
And you have to go into it imagining, you know, having that approach that every stranger is a a potential friend.
262
So by the way, E in friend is the most interesting one.
263
People love talking about it.
264
Okay, we'll get to that.
265
Let's start with F.
266
F stands for family.
267
Ask about their family.
268
Okay, R stands for random objects in front of you.
269
Like for me, it could be the camera.
270
If somebody was sitting here, I could just simply ask, hey, do you know which camera I'm using?
271
Or do you know the lens that I'm using?
272
Or the light, I have a light in front of me, a jumbo light, then probably the curtains or
273
if you are in a pub or a disc maybe the dance floor
274
or the lights over there the disco lights
275
or how loud the music is anything okay random objects coming to i interest
276
and hobbies ask them about their interests ask them about their
277
hobbies what they like doing then coming to f r i e i told you
278
that e is the best one right e is eating you'll
279
be surprised how often people love talking about food they love talking about all the things they like eating
280
so talk about
281
that it's the this is the easiest one really the easiest one everybody has their favorites and not so favorites.
282
N stands for news or current affairs.
283
Okay.
284
And then finally D is day.
285
Ask them about their day.
286
How it went?
287
What was it like?
288
What did they do?
289
Was there something exciting in the day?
290
Anything.
291
If you're uncomfortable with the feeling that you might make others feel uncomfortable with your conversations,
292
just go out there, talk with five to ten people, and then judge it.
293
Most probably, you're just construing this the wrong way.
294
It's not so.
295
Naturally, it will be easy for you to make them feel comfortable.
296
You will be catching their facial expressions.
297
You will be catching the vibe.
298
You will understand if they are comfortable or not.
299
And then you obviously have a choice how to make it fun for them, how to make it exciting for them.
300
The most easy way is just talk about them.
301
That's the easiest way.
302
Talk about them.
303
Okay.
304
Ask anything that relates to their life or relates to their family.
305
Anything that is close to them and they will naturally like it and be inclined to talk more about it.
306
Ask them their favorite car.
307
Ask them if they have a pet.
308
Ask them what do they do on their weekends.
309
So if I have to summarize all of this up for you, these are going to be my pointers.
310
Any language is just patterns and rules
311
and human brain is very capable of learning the patterns and learning the rules on its own.
312
Lack of practice is the main reason behind your poor social skills.
313
Talking with more and more people is going to make it easier for your brain to develop your social skills.
314
One-on-one interaction challenge is the way you can experiment with your mind
315
and you can improve your social skills the two will go together have this experiment with yourself
316
and you will automatically learn finesse you will get better
317
and better at it so this is what you have to do now
318

- Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: socialize /ˈsoʊʃəlaɪz/, initiate /ɪˈnɪʃ.i.eɪt/, facial /ˈfeɪ.ʃəl/, handshake /ˈhæn(d)ˌʃeɪk/, shiver /ˈʃɪvɚ/
- Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: inappropriate /ˌɪnəˈpɹoʊpɹi.ət/, elevator /ˈɛləˌveɪtɚ/, introverted /ˈɪn.tɹəˌvɜːɹ.təd/, initiate /ɪˈnɪʃ.i.eɪt/, uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/
Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:
- Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: introverted /ˈɪn.tɹəˌvɜːɹ.təd/, expose /ɪkˈspoʊz/, crave /kɹeɪv/, socialize /ˈsoʊʃəlaɪz/, elsewise /ˈɛlswaɪz/
- /æ/ — offener als „ä“: tracker /ˈtɹækə(ɹ)/, interact /ɪn.təˈɹækt/, firsthand /ˈfɜːstˌhænd/, handshake /ˈhæn(d)ˌʃeɪk/, tonality /toʊnˈæl.ɪ.ti/
So übst du mit diesem Video
- Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
- Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
- Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie scenario, inappropriate, introverted.
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.
