Shadowing Practice: Stop Explaining Yourself to Everyone | Mel Robbins #Shorts - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
- Stop trying to make everyone else understand your choices.
2
Let them misunderstand you.
3
Let them think you're wrong, misguided or strange.
4
Let them think it's cringy, because you're not responsible for making people understand.
5
You know, like I keep telling you, there's something in life that you will never be able to control, And that's other people.
6
What they think, what they do, what they believe, whether or not they understand what's going on or they're questioning you.
7
That means you cannot control what another person thinks about you, about what you're doing, about what you're wearing,
8
about your career moves, you will never, ever, ever, ever be able to control that, The only person your decisions need to make sense to is you.
9
See, the things that you feel called to do, the changes that you want to make.
10
the goals that you have.
11
the things on your bucket list, They're all for you.
12
They're not supposed to make sense to other people.
13
Oftentimes, What I've found is that when you make changes in your life, it's the people who are closest to you that don't understand why you're changing.
14
So when your family or friends are questioning you and they don't understand you, they are questioning you from their point of view.
15
They're loving you from their point of view.
16
They're seeing your decision through their fears, their limits, their life experiences.
17
And you're going to want your partner to understand.
18
You're going to want your parents to understand.
19
You're going to want everybody in your life to get on board
20
and be excited about your new morning routine or the fact that you want to become an influencer, that you're going to change your marriage, you're going to get divorced, or you're going to move to a different country.
21
Or here's the big one.
22
You choose not to have children.
23
every holiday, like clockwork, somebody has to ask.
24
So, um, You think you're gonna change your mind? as if I've decided not to have children is not a respectable answer.
25
you can explain yourself until you're blue in the face.
26
But no one will ever fully get you.
27
and you can't control whether or not they ever do.
28
So what does this mean?
29
Whatever their assumptions and worries are about what you're doing, that's not your job to manage.
30
Save your energy for living your life not defending it.
31
Thank you.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
