1
Why do we have unemployed problems all over the world now?
2
A lot of people don't have a job.
3
There's no job for them.
4
They have no income.
5
When they have no income, they cannot make a living.
6
They suffer.
7
Why humans have to develop our life in this way?
8
In the past, people know how to survive in every situation.
9
But now we learn so much, we develop so much.
10
If we cannot get a job, if we become unemployed, we will not survive easily.
11
It's a big problem all over.
12
The number of unemployed people is increased everywhere in the world now, especially when the economics have problems.
13
I think this topic is very important to think about it because it will be problem forever.
14
If we're still thinking in the way we're thinking now, if we believe in this system that we have now,
15
we will have unemployed problem forever.
16
It's so sad.
17
Humans are weaker, are more vulnerable than any animal in the world.
18
Look at the bird.
19
There are so many of them, many million, million birds in the world, many different kinds of animals in the world.
20
But these animals, they are never looking for a job.
21
They never go to university.
22
They never develop their skills like us.
23
But they can survive.
24
They know how to survive easily.
25
But clever human like us, if we cannot get a job, we have big problems.
26
We are in trouble.
27
this is so sad to see this i think we need to change the way of our thinking now
28
because the system
29
that we have now in the last 50 years we were
30
designed by a group of people they're using education system government
31
system economic system to force people to train people to be specialist,
32
to be a robot, who can do only one thing in their life.
33
When we go to the education system, we study almost 20 years to make ourselves become handicapped.
34
We can do only a few things in our life and we think this is the way we develop ourselves.
35
This is the most progressive way in our life.
36
It's funny because
37
a lot of people who study so much and
38
when they cannot get a job they become a handicapped people
39
why humans have to develop ourselves to be like this i think we'll face more
40
and more unemployed problem in the future because our life have to depend on business and in most of business
41
based on changing natural resources into money.
42
But we have less and less natural resources in the world.
43
Now, we will have less and less business survive.
44
And in the same time, when we have less and less business, the cost of business will be higher and higher.
45
So they don't want to hire people more anymore.
46
So they start to create robots, create AI to work instead of human.
47
We have to struggle more to get a job.
48
It's a shame.
49
Humans have so much ability.
50
Why are we waiting for a job?
51
I think we need to change the way of our thinking now.
52
The problem now is the system, the government system, education system, every system we have now,
53
they did not train us to be creator, to be the owner of business, to be entrepreneur.
54
Mainly, they focus on training us to be a manual labor, to be a cheap labor.
55
That's what they need us to be.
56
They train us to be handicapped.
57
So we cannot help ourselves.
58
Only one way that we feel that we will survive is looking for a job and get a job.
59
That's so sad.
60
The most beautiful world, the wide and big world,
61
become very narrow for our life now.
62
We are like in the jail, in one small chamber.
63
We feel like we have no freedom because we cannot get a job
64
and then many people think if I get a job we have more money
65
and we have more freedom but when you get a job you have less freedom
66
because you need to sacrifice your life for the job most of the time one week you maybe have one
67
or two days off even one or two days off we still working in
68
that day we bring the job back home and still working
69
and working and working
70
so this is the way we are now I think the new way of thinking is
71
when the system don't want us to be creator they don't
72
want us to be a creator don't want us to be the owner of the business
73
or entrepreneur we need to train ourselves we need to change the way of our thinking train ourselves to be creator
74
if we start to think about it start to think about something different from normal
75
I think most people can be creator easily.
76
I think most people can create their own job easily.
77
Their own job can be anything around us.
78
Anything around us can be a job.
79
It can turn to a job, anything, anywhere, anytime.
80
We don't need to be looking for a job.
81
Jobs can be everywhere.
82
I think whenever we develop ourselves into that level, that is the real freedom in our life.
83
Our life will be in our hands completely.
84
That is the way we free ourselves from the robot system.
85
If not, we are going to suffer like handicapped people who cannot do things much,
86
just waiting for the job that they were trained only.
87
That's sad.
88
I think humans have so much ability.
89
We have a lot of power, a lot of ability to do anything, to create anything in the world.
90
We should not look down on ourselves.
91
We should not ruin our ability in the way we are doing it now because life is so much fun.
92
Humans have to be able to create good life for ourselves.
93
Good life is the life that we enjoy our life.
94
We have time to relax, to be with family, to have a good food,
95
to create anything to make it fun.
96
But the way we are now, less and less people have fun in their life.
97
That's why there's a lot of people stressed and become mental problems.
98
They have a lot of mental health problems all over the world now.
99
A lot of people cannot sleep.
100
Sleeping is so good that most of people cannot sleep.
101
I think this is a big thing that we need to think is a problem.
102
I think it's the time.
103
to think about changing our mind,
104
changing the way of thinking by we have to develop ourselves,
105
train ourselves to be a creator more and more and more.
106
We can start from tiny things around us.
107
Just look at around us.
108
What do we like to do?
109
Anything we can create it.
110
We can make it into a job.
111
We can make it fun.
112
We can make it into the way of living easily.
113
When you look at the grass, the grass around me, the grass can turn to compost.
114
Compost can turn to food, can turn to money, can turn to anything.
115
Look at the trees.
116
The tree can turn to art, can turn to furniture, can turn to anything.
117
So many things.
118
There's a lot of things around us to think about.
119
It's so much fun when we know that there are so many choices around us.
120
But it's so sad when we feel that there's no choice.
121
If I cannot get a job, I have no choice.
122
That is the most sad part of our life.
123
We need to change the way of our thinking.
124
We need to change the way of our living.
125
If not, life is so boring.
126
Life is so much stress.
127
Life so much depressed.
128
I think we can make it fun.

¿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.
