1
Hi everyone!
2
So this is episode number four for Pillow Talk with special guest, Karen!
3
Hi!
4
Do you guys remember Karen from Summer Goals?
5
She was the really cute girl.
6
The one that did this and probably a lot of this.
7
Topics are how to deal with failure, rejection, sacrifice, and living by your parents' standards.
8
Let's go.
9
I can't go.
10
Okay, okay.
11
Go first.
12
Alright, this is by Relax2Nature.
13
When we hear the word rejection, it usually means something unpleasant.
14
But is there a positive side of rejection?
15
Sometimes we tend to feel like rejection is a bad or negative connotation because that's what society displaces on us.
16
However, I always had this belief in this mantra that rejection is a blessing in disguise.
17
Rejection is just one way of directing you to the right place that you need to be.
18
Everything happens for a reason, so if this doesn't happen right now, then something else is meant to happen.
19
I heard this one saying that really resonated with me and hopefully it resonates with you guys.
20
God or the universe always has three answers to any of your questions or concerns.
21
It's always yes, not yet, or I have something better.
22
Oh yeah.
23
So Lisa Chan asked, how would you tell your parents about wanting to live your own life
24
and not something they would expect from you?
25
I think a lot of times we feel like our parents don't understand us, don't communicate with them what we want, they really won't understand us.
26
It's true.
27
I know my parents were immigrants, so I knew like they went through so much and they didn't want us to go through the same hardships.
28
When I graduated from college, I was told that I needed a nine to five job.
29
Imagine trying to explain to your parents like, hey, mom and dad, I'm gonna quit my job now and make YouTube videos.
30
I think for them to really understand why this means so much to me is that I
31
I showed consistency in the things that I want.
32
I'm not just saying, "Hey mom, dad, I want to become a YouTuber or I want to become a painter." But instead, I show them that I'm doing it.
33
That dedication shows maturity and once you show maturity to your parents, that's when they can start believing in you.
34
Yeah, they trust you.
35
It's so true.
36
So Roshika, she asked, "How do I deal with failure?
37
It's depressing when I can't live up to my own standards."
38
I guess an example that I can give from myself is When I first started my YouTube channel, I had this expectation in my mind,
39
like how I want my videos to turn out.
40
but If I kept having that expectation, then I would not keep uploading things because I would just be disappointed every single time.
41
practicing and practicing and practicing.
42
In each practice you can You know, give yourself a pat on the back, like, "Wow, I did it !" You know, like, I...
43
I stepped out of my comfort zone to achieve something that I couldn't before.
44
So instead of thinking of it as a failure, think of it as mini -accomplishments to get you to that final goal.
45
Yes, yes.
46
Pat on the bag, mini accomplishments!
47
All the time.
48
You gotta keep doing that to keep you going.
49
Failure invites change.
50
That's how I see it.
51
And change could be a good thing.
52
AJ asks, "I'm scared about going to college and realizing I don't like my major or career decision.
53
Please help." It's okay.
54
Like seriously, it's okay if you don't know what you want to do even up until the point you graduate.
55
It takes time.
56
I mean, for some people it takes them a lifetime to find their passion.
57
College should be like an introduction to a new world for you to explore.
58
being on your own, being a responsible adult, being responsible for your time.
59
I feel like college teaches you a lot about time management.
60
Like if you have a class at 8am, you have to wake yourself up.
61
You're not going to have your parents there waking you up.
62
I know for a fact that right before I went to college, I thought that it was going to be a lot harder than high school, but it's actually a lot easier.
63
It is easier.
64
Because you don't have to go to six classes in one day.
65
You might be going to two to three different classes.
66
Yeah.
67
And you end up having a lot of time in your life day
68
and you can pick your teachers yeah you get to go on teachers enjoy this moment
69
because you're not gonna be around this many creative like -minded people in college because
70
when you go out into the real world it's really different
71
it's actually harder I feel they know like people actually say oh the real world's really hard
72
and I never really understood it until I had to go into it So enjoy it, please.
73
Tutus are sweeter asks, how do you pursue a career in art while being recognized for your intellect?
74
Love your advice.
75
I think society often discredits or doesn't give enough credit for creative people.
76
And if you just look around your, like everything around you, look at the magazines or like clothes or packaging, right?
77
Everything.
78
This room.
79
Yeah, there's someone that thought about how to put all the things in the world all that together.
80
Whenever there's design, there's a sense of intelligence behind it.
81
But it's another form of intelligence that's not about words or writing or books or science.
82
It's visual or it's sound, it's audio or it's taste.
83
If you want to pursue a career in art, there's so many different paths you can take.
84
You don't just have to be a painter.
85
You can be a social media manager that focuses on the creativity of the social media, creative director.
86
You could also be a stylist.
87
I mean, there's so many different facets of creativity.
88
Don't just limit yourself to one.
89
Final question is from Eleanor Foy.
90
She asked, Michelle, how do you deal with feeling isolated and lonely at school?
91
Love you.
92
Love you too.
93
There's nothing wrong with learning how to be comfortable by yourself and your own thoughts.
94
Good people will attract good people.
95
I think feeling isolated is only temporary because you'll eventually be attracted or you'll find good people If anything,
96
I think it's a blessing in disguise because You filter out.
97
the not so good people out of your life.
98
And so you only have like a handful of good people in your life.
99
And those are the only people that you do want in your life anyway.
100
If you want to find people, if you want change in your life, you have to invite that change.
101
And sometimes that change can be scary, but you need to have that challenge to push you into a different direction for your personal development.
102
So that's pretty much it guys.
103
These were all the questions.
104
Thank you so much for asking these great questions.
105
We hope you guys enjoyed the video and hopefully they were helpful.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
