1
Ugly action beats perfection.
2
What does that mean?
3
Let's take a look at this.
4
Why do we wait for perfection before acting?
5
Say it like that.
6
Repeat after me.
7
Why do we wait for perfection before acting?
8
Why do we wait for the moment to be perfect before we do something?
9
or let's restate it like this.
10
Why do we often hold back until everything seems perfect before taking action?
11
Again, why do we often hold back until everything seems perfect, before taking action?
12
Again, say that with me.
13
Why do we often hold back until everything seems perfect, before taking action?
14
All right, did you say that with me?
15
Let me ask you something.
16
Let me.
17
Let me becomes, you know, let me.
18
Let me ask you something.
19
Let me ask you something.
20
Have you ever had a goal, a dream, or even a small idea,
21
but never actually started because you were waiting for the perfect moment This is everybody, me included.
22
Say it with me.
23
Have you ever had a goal, a dream, or even a small idea,
24
but never actually started because you were waiting for the perfect moment?
25
Maybe you told yourself, maybe you told yourself this, I'll start when I feel ready.
26
4. I'll take action once everything is in place and I know exactly what to do.
27
5. I'll take action once everything is in place.
28
6. And I know what to do.
29
That's wouldn't happen.
30
6. I'll start when I feel ready,
31
or I'll take action once everything is in place and I know exactly what to do. But here's the truth.
32
Oh no, truth bomb incoming.
33
We say that sometimes.
34
Ooh, that's a truth bomb.
35
That's when a truth hits you hard.
36
It's a truth bomb.
37
Here comes the truth bomb.
38
That perfect moment never really comes.
39
Perfection is an illusion.
40
That perfect moment never really comes.
41
Perfection is an illusion.
42
Perfection is an illusion.
43
And while you're waiting for it, time keeps quietly moving forward.
44
And while you're waiting for it, time keeps quietly moving forward.
45
Think about it for a second.
46
Think about it.
47
Think about it for a second.
48
How many chances have you ever...
49
Oh, sorry, it doesn't say have you ever.
50
Let me try again.
51
How many chances have you missed because you were waiting for the right conditions?
52
I don't know.
53
Because I never tried, so I don't know if I missed a chance or not.
54
Because I didn't do anything.
55
Because I was waiting for the right conditions.
56
Alright, let's say that together.
57
How many chances have you missed because you were waiting for the right conditions?
58
Again, how many chances have you missed because you were waiting for the right conditions?
59
How many times have you planned,
60
prepared, researched, or thought about something for so long that you never actually did it?
61
I do that all the time.
62
How many times have you planned, prepared, researched, or thought about something for so long that you never actually did it?
63
Let's say that together one more time.
64
How many times have you planned, prepared, researched, or thought about something for so long that you never actually did it?
65
You never, yeah, yeah, yeah, never actually did it, did it, did it.
66
The reality is that life rewards action, not waiting.
67
That's the reality.
68
Life rewards action takers.
69
It doesn't reward people who wait.
70
The reality is that life rewards action, not waiting.
71
And action doesn't need to be pretty.
72
In fact, it's often ugly, awkward, and full of mistakes.
73
Action doesn't need to be perfect, perfect, or pretty.
74
Action doesn't need to be pretty.
75
In fact, it's often ugly, awkward, and full of mistakes.
76
you'll stumble you'll backtrack and you'll get things wrong or maybe you won't because you're perfect well other people will
77
I'm just kidding you will you'll stumble you'll backtrack if you backtrack you go backwards and you'll get things wrong. But here's the key.
78
Those imperfect, clumsy steps will always take you farther than the most beautiful plan that stays only in your head. That is poetic.
79
Let's say it again.
80
Those imperfect, clumsy steps will always take you further than the most beautiful plan that stays only in your head.
81
I paused there at this word because I said further, and this is spelled more like farther, will take you farther.
82
But people pronounce it further.
83
Further, farther.
84
I should have researched this before I started making this video.
85
I'm confused.
86
Further, farther.
87
It's further.
88
Further feels like it's natural.
89
Okay, let's go with that.
90
This is future chat.
91
I just finished making the video and then I looked it up.
92
The question between further and farther.
93
This is the answer.
94
Use farther for measurable physical distances, like he ran farther than anyone else.
95
He ran three miles.
96
He ran 10 kilometers farther.
97
Although a lot of Americans, they use further in both situations.
98
We'll get to that.
99
And further is used for metaphorical distance, time, or degree.
100
So further research is needed.
101
So you need more research, further research. So it's metaphorical.
102
In our situation, we're talking about our dreams, our goals.
103
So further is the correct one to use in our situation.
104
This is what it also said.
105
While often interchangeable, they can be changed, they can be switched.
106
farther implies literal distance and further implies an extension or additional amount.
107
Alright, so anyways, back to the lesson.
108
Those imperfect, clumsy steps will always take you further than the most beautiful plan that stays only in your head.
109
Ugly action moves you.
110
perfection just keeps you dreaming.
111
If you want perfection, you're just going to keep dreaming.
112
But if you want to move, make progress, you've got to take some ugly action.
113
You've got to do an imperfect something.
114
Take ugly action.
115
I like that.
116
I take ugly action every day.
117
That is why English Coach Chad is almost at a million subscribers on YouTube.
118
I can't believe it.
119
Holy cow.
120
I have been taking ugly action for many, many years.
121
And now I'm going to have a million subscribers on YouTube.
122
That's just amazing.
123
All right, I'm sidelined.
124
I'm off the track.
125
Let's keep moving forward.
126
Oh, that was it.
127
That was it.
128
Okay.
129
Let's take some ugly, imperfect action.
130
Do you want to take some ugly, imperfect action with me?
131
Let's shadow this.
132
Let's try to do it nonstop.
133
See if we can make a lot of mistakes as we go along.
134
Here we go.
135
Why do we wait for perfection before acting?
136
Why do we often hold back until everything seems perfect before taking action?
137
Let me ask you something.
138
Have you ever had a goal, a dream, or even a small idea, but never actually started because you were waiting for the perfect moment?
139
Maybe you told yourself, I'll start when I feel ready,
140
or I'll take action once everything is in place and I know exactly what to do. But here's the truth.
141
The perfect moment never really comes.
142
Perfection is an illusion.
143
And while you're waiting for it, time keeps quietly moving forward.
144
Think about it for a second.
145
How many chances have you missed because you were waiting for the right conditions?
146
How many times have you planned,
147
prepared, researched, or thought about something for so long that you never actually did it?
148
The reality is that life rewards action, not waiting.
149
And action doesn't need to be pretty.
150
In fact, it's often ugly, awkward, and full of mistakes.
151
You'll stumble, you'll backtrack, and you'll get things wrong.
152
But here's the key.
153
Those imperfect, clumsy steps will always take you further than the most beautiful plan that stays only in your head.
154
ugly action moves you perfection just keeps you dreaming
155
and that's it we did it boom we took some ugly
156
action we did a workout way to go keep moving forward
157
keep practicing one step at a time i'll see you in the next english speaking practice video

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.
