all right welcome back to

that channel where you improve your english you get an english exposure you learn

and practice and get an opportunity to listen to realistic english

and to practice imitating me and you don't die of boredom

because what is up with those robotic boring teachers i don't know about you

but i don't want none of that i don't want any of that that's the grammatically correct way.

I don't want any of that.

Get out of here.

I didn't learn Spanish by watching boring robotic teachers.

Okay.

Welcome back to the channel where I just talk nonsense.

I just talk nonsense.

I just word vomit.

It's a real expression.

Okay.

I didn't make that up.

Word vomit all over the video and you just soak it up

and your brain is soaking it up and it's happening and you're doing it.

You're doing the damn thing and you're doing a good job at it.

So keep doing it.

We're back with another installment of what did my aunt tell me in a WhatsApp message that was 24 minutes long.

If you haven't seen the first part, what are you doing?

Watch my videos.

What the hell, man?

Go back and watch my videos.

It was like two videos ago.

Come on, catch up.

Mustard.

That was a joke.

This is the part two of that video.

So basically what I did is I took clips of my aunt's audio message to share with you.

And then we're going to go through it.

We're gonna break it down gonna break it down gonna talk about it we're gonna analyze it

and you're gonna learn stuff all right sound good hell yeah let's go

this is the first clip she's just talking to me about

different family members she's just giving me the updates about what's

going on in the family for context for context enjoy john is good nothing new really

or different with his work he still wonders about

when to retire on a daily basis

it's like you know those decisions like it's it's a tough

one to make though um like to be financially feeling financially secure

but also knowing that you can't buy back time so like

if you can do it do it and enjoy your life

and i don't know he'll he'll figure it out

but um natalie is good she's has the flexibility to be remote at times

but she's supposed to be in the office a certain percentage of the time she seems to be remote more than not. But she's an adult.

We're trying to stay out of it.

God, that's freaking hard.

But anyway, so otherwise she's fine.

Ty was just here for a night.

He's back at school and trying to finish up.

He has credits to graduate early, so he's going to graduate in december and then head to dc

and hopefully work on capitol hill for a bit um i know his long -term plan is law school

so i don't know if

but most i think most most people don't go directly to law school they do some type of experiential work

that helps to make them a better candidate for law school

i don't know anyway he's gonna he's hoping to work on capitol hill for a

while all right welcome back how was

that on a scale of one to ten tell me in the comments how easy

or difficult 10 being the most difficult wait 10 yeah 10

being the most difficult one being the easiest how was the

first audio clip for you what i'm trying to show you is

that it's pretty simple i mean the way

that my aunt talks i mean standard american english

when we're just relaxed and we're half asleep in bed and what even when we're not half asleep we're just relaxed.

We're just chilling.

We're just low anxiety, just living life, talking about stuff for a while.

It's not that hard.

You know, it's pretty simple.

It's pretty basic.

It's pretty easy to follow.

And remember, I made these clips so much faster than they really were.

I cut out a lot of silence.

So in real life, she was actually speaking a lot slower.

Okay.

So let's analyze it.

All right.

John is good.

She's talking about her husband, my uncle, John.

John is good.

Nothing and really new or different with his work.

He still wonders about when to retire on a daily basis.

This is a common phrase on a daily basis, on a daily basis.

It's like, you know, regularly daily.

It's like saying daily on a daily basis, daily, like basically every day.

He wonders about this.

He thinks about this, like, huh, I wonder when I should retire.

I'm thinking about when I should retire.

He thinks about that like every day on a daily basis.

It's like, you know, one of those decisions like it's a tough one to make though like it's a tough decision

it's a hard decision it's a tough one it's a tough one

it's a tough decision to make be careful with

that a lot of students say take a decision

because they're translating from their native language looking at you spanish speakers

it's not take it's make in english we say make a decision make

it you need to like create it not take it create it like make it make the decision happen make it happen

It's a tough decision to make when to retire.

Yeah, like to be financially, feeling financially secure.

My aunt and uncle are quite privileged.

100

A lot of people don't even really even have the opportunity to retire because they don't have that financial security.

101

So some people have to pretty much work until they die.

102

And that's the unfortunate reality of the world.

103

And it sucks and it's stupid.

104

Yes, my aunt and uncle fortunately don't have to because of the position they're in.

105

But they are people who are very concerned with financial security.

106

And even though they could retire now and they'd be fine, they are used to or hoping for a certain standard of living.

107

And they want to make sure that it's comfortable enough for them.

108

You know, they're the type of people that they could have a lot of money, but they feel like it's not enough.

109

You know, like I don't feel totally comfortable.

110

It's kind of like never enough, you know, in the human mind.

111

But so she's just talking about how John is thinking about how he wants to feel financially secure,

112

but also keeping in mind the fact that you can't buy back time.

113

All of these years that you're working, yeah, you want to be financially secure, but also you're not getting any younger.

114

Money can buy a lot of things, a lot of things, but you can't buy back time.

115

You can't buy your time to get it back.

116

That's what it means, buy back time.

117

It's like to buy your time to get it back.

118

Can't buy it back.

119

Buy it back.

120

You can't buy time.

121

I mean, once it's gone, it's gone.

122

So that's an important thing to consider.

123

This is more how I think.

124

This is why I don't do a lot of work.

125

A lot of people see me, oh, you're a YouTuber.

126

Oh, you're influencer.

127

Oh, you're a content creator.

128

Oh, you must do a lot of work.

129

I don't.

130

Honestly, I don't.

131

I do the minimum.

132

That's why you see there's not a lot of complex editing in my videos.

133

There's not a lot going on.

134

I do the bare minimum

135

that I need to for my job to work for it to happen so I can make money.

136

But I really do not do that much intentionally because I don't like to work, which is normal.

137

Most people don't, but I have such a strong aversion to work and I would rather make less money.

138

I'd rather have more free time than work.

139

My aunt and uncle are not really those kind of people.

140

They would rather work than have less money.

141

And I don't even know what they're going to do when they retire and have all this free time.

142

Honestly, I don't even know what they're going to do anyway.

143

So that's, that's what she's talking about here.

144

So like, if you can do it, do it and enjoy your life.

145

And I don't know, he'll figure it out.

146

He'll figure it out when, when he's thinking about when he's going to retire, he doesn't know he'll figure it out.

147

He'll figure it out.

148

Don't worry about it.

149

Um, Natalie is good.

150

So talking about her daughter, Natalie, my cousin, Natalie, she has the flexibility to be remote at times

151

so with her job you know

152

she has the flexibility with her job to be to be remote to work remotely at times

153

but she's supposed to be in the office a certain percentage of the time

154

she seems to be remote more than not she seems to be remote more than not

155

and my aunt said this in a kind of way like she seems like she's mostly working remotely

156

and I think maybe she's supposed to work more in the office, but she's not going and doing it.

157

My aunt doesn't know what's going on with that.

158

She's a little suspicious.

159

She's a little suspicious of Natalie, but I am like, Natalie, hell yeah.

160

You work remote is just as much as you can get away with.

161

Who wants to go into the office?

162

The office, it's like, it's even, it's in a different city.

163

Like it's in a different town.

164

Like she's got to drive there.

165

She's got to get all, you know, dressed for the day.

166

She's got drive there, like just stay at home.

167

So, but she's an adult.

168

So this is my aunt kind of grappling with the idea, kind of like accepting the fact that now Natalie is an adult.

169

And even though most of her life, she was a child and, you know, as her mother, my aunt Angela kind of,

170

you know, it was her job to be like, you know, making sure she's doing the right thing.

171

But now that Natalie is an adult, she's a young adult.

172

She's only, she just graduated college.

173

She's only like 22 my aunt has to accept that

174

and give her space and like accept

175

that like she's gonna do what she's gonna do

176

and it's not really your place anymore to like tell her

177

what to do like this is on her now you know she's an adult

178

so we're trying to stay out of it we're trying to stay out of it trying not to get involved

179

but god that's freaking hard god

180

that's freaking hard uh freaking is just like a nice way of saying fucking oh that's fucking hard

181

but you know freaking is like the um you know more uh friendly version not not vanity you know

182

but god that's freaking hard so Angela's just saying you know she's an adult now

183

and so I gotta stay out of it

184

but god that's hard you know she wants to get involved

185

and be like Natalie you gotta go to the office um but anyway way

186

So otherwise, she's fine.

187

So otherwise, you know, in general, regardless, despite all that, whatever, she's fine.

188

Ty was just here for a night.

189

So Ty is Natalie's boyfriend.

190

Ty was just here for a night.

191

He's back at school and trying to finish up.

192

He has credits to graduate early.

193

So he's going to graduate in December.

194

So you get credits for the classes that you take in college, in university.

195

He has enough credits to graduate early.

196

So he's going to graduate in December instead of like May or whenever the year ends.

197

So he's going to graduate after this semester and then head to D .C.

198

I think his family lives in D .C and in the capital of the country.

199

I think that's why and hopefully work on Capitol Hill for a bit.

200

So Capitol Hill is like a government.

201

No, what is it?

202

It's a neighborhood.

203

It's a neighborhood, I think, that has some governmental buildings in it.

204

I don't know.

205

I really don't know.

206

And I don't care.

207

But yeah, it's just some prominent neighborhood in D .C.

208

It's a famous neighborhood in D .C.

209

that I don't really know about.

210

But yeah, so he's going to hopefully work there.

211

I don't know.

212

I guess he has family there.

213

I don't know how he's going to work there.

214

I really don't know anything about Ty.

215

I've never even met him.

216

I don't live in the United States and I come back to visit very rarely and I've never met Ty.

217

So I don't really know about this, but I think he maybe has some connections there.

218

I know his long -term plan is law school.

219

Okay, his long -term plan is law school.

220

He wants to be a lawyer, I guess.

221

So I don't know if, and then she trails off.

222

She trails off.

223

It's like she starts talking and then she stops talking and then she starts a new thing.

224

And then, you know, but most, I think most, most people don't, you know, she's trying to find the words.

225

Most, I think most, most people don't go directly to law school.

226

They do some type of experiential work.

227

Experiential, I guess.

228

Yeah.

229

I'm a little confused because there's also the word experimental, but this is different.

230

Experiential work.

231

Yeah.

232

I don't know.

233

I've never used this word in my life, but you know, just to gain more experience, work to gain experience.

234

They do some kind of experiential work that helps to make them a better candidate for law school, you know, to apply.

235

So if you if you get some work experience before you apply to law school, you're more likely to get accepted.

236

I don't know.

237

Anyway, he's gonna he's hoping to work on Capitol Hill for a while.

238

Yeah, I don't really know why it's work on Capitol Hill and not in if it's a neighborhood.

239

I don't really know.

240

I don't really understand this part, like because i don't know about this place um

241

but it doesn't matter you know native speakers we don't understand like everything

242

because we don't always know what people are talking about you know what i mean

243

but that's okay it's normal

244

but it doesn't matter it's like i get the general idea

245

it's gonna go work in dc whatever yeah

246

i guess he's gonna have a bit of a long distance relationship with natalie my cousin

247

i guess she goes to visit him a bunch and she can work remotely most of the time remember

248

So I guess they're going to make it work.

249

But yeah, so that was the first audio message.

250

And let's listen now to the second one.

251

Let's see.

252

That's Natalie.

253

Lindsay.

254

Lindsay is okay right now.

255

She's been struggling big time with just a bunch of things.

256

Her anxiety levels are kind of ramped up right now.

257

I think it's just the whole thing about, I may have already told you this sorry if I have

258

but I think just um just that realization

259

that at the moment like this is her life right now

260

that she's working Monday through Friday she's working long days

261

you know there's no long

262

there's no like end to the internship at the end of

263

the summer where she goes back to school to see friends

264

and have a looser schedule and blah blah blah I think that coming to grips with Her reality has been a challenge,

265

but then you kind of superimpose her anxiety issues on that.

266

And she's been struggling a bit, but she'll get there.

267

And I told her, you know, sometimes working like this is a means to an end, though.

268

Like, you need to get some experience, you need to earn some money,

269

you need to be able to fund things that you want to be able to do.

270

And maybe that means I think she'd like to own her own business one day.

271

I don't know what that would be or whatever, but you need to walk before you run.

272

So this doesn't mean that this is the job you're going to be in for the rest of your life.

273

Life is too short to hate what you're doing.

274

I don't know if she hates it.

275

I don't think that's the issue so much as

276

just grasping the reality of I got to get up every morning and go to work.

277

All right.

278

So this one is all about my other cousin, Lindsay.

279

So Angela, my aunt Angela has twin daughters, Natalie and Lindsay.

280

So this is about the other twin, Lindsay, who has a different life.

281

Let's see.

282

That's Natalie.

283

Lindsay, Lindsay is okay right now.

284

So okay is like, it's not really good.

285

It's not really bad.

286

It's like, eh, she's okay.

287

She's all right.

288

She's okay.

289

But eh, you know, in the middle.

290

She's been struggling big time.

291

This is a great expression.

292

This is great.

293

I love that she said this.

294

This reminds me of my family.

295

This reminds me of my grandma.

296

My mom big time is like a lot.

297

It's just, it's just a way of saying a lot.

298

And it's something that I heard mostly from my fam, my mother's family.

299

I don't know how common it is in the United States.

300

Like there must be a lot of people that say it somewhere.

301

I really don't know how common it is because it's something

302

that I've rarely heard in movies and shows and YouTube videos and social media.

303

Like I've rarely heard this outside of my mom's family, but I know they, they didn't make it up.

304

So it must exist.

305

But anyway, big time, it just, it's just a way of saying a lot.

306

So she's been struggling big time.

307

She's been struggling a lot, a lot.

308

If you don't know the word struggle, you need to know this verb.

309

It's like to, it's hard to explain, but it's like to be going through a hard time, to be having a hard time with something.

310

Like, oh, I'm struggling with life.

311

I'm having a hard time doing stuff, doing everything that I want to do.

312

There's a lot, you know, weighing me down.

313

There's a lot going on.

314

I'm overwhelmed or whatever.

315

Struggling.

316

But you could use it in any case, basically, when you would use having a hard time.

317

That's also another expression, to have a hard time with something.

318

So many students, because they're translating from Spanish or Portuguese, they go, I'm having difficulty.

319

Or sometimes they even say it wrong and they say, I'm having difficult.

320

And I have to explain to them that having difficulty with something like it exists, but it's not as common as other phrases,

321

but it's definitely wrong to say have difficult.

322

So many Brazilians say that I'm having, I have difficult.

323

Difficult is not difficulty.

324

There's separate words.

325

You got to learn the difference there.

326

But anyways, it's much more common to say that I'm having a hard time with something.

327

Something is hard for me.

328

Something is difficult for me.

329

I'm having a hard time.

330

I'm struggling.

331

That's way more common.

332

So she's been struggling big time with just a bunch of things.

333

So just a lot, a lot of things, a bunch of things.

334

Her anxiety levels are kind of ramped up right now, ramped up.

335

So you see how, even if you don't understand ramped up, you can kind of get it based on the context.

336

Like you can kind of understand the point

337

there her anxiety levels are kind of ramped up ramped up right

338

now I think it's just the whole thing about

339

and I may have already told you this may have already told you this says

340

I might have I might have already told you this I

341

may have I may have already told you this sorry

342

if I have but I think just um just the realization

343

that at the moment like this is her life right now

344

that she's working Monday through Friday she's working long days you know there's no long, there's no like end to the internship,

345

internship, sorry, in the internship at the end of the summer.

346

So the job that she has right now, she had an internship for a couple years, I think, or at least one year,

347

I don't know where she worked.

348

I don't know if it was the same job, but it was like the same building, same kind of work environment thing.

349

She had that as like a summer internship when she was in college.

350

So between her semesters in college, like on summer break, she had this internship and it was okay because it was short term.

351

And she knew at the end of the summer, she'd go back to school.

352

The internship would end and she'd go back to college and her life would go back to the way it was.

353

But now she accepted this job and there is no more college.

354

She already graduated.

355

So there's no light at the end of the tunnel.

356

There's no end to the internship there's no end to the summer well there's an end to the summer

357

but not to the job at the end of the summer

358

so this is just gonna it's just gonna keep going it's it's not ending

359

so she's coming to the realization

360

that oh I'm an adult now I have a I have an adult job

361

I work all year Monday through Friday all day long

362

it's not gonna end holy shit I had this realization even before I graduated college

363

which is why I didn't graduate and I basically ran away

364

and I I went to go live in the Amazon because I was like, I could see this.

365

I foresaw this.

366

I predicted my life being like this, just getting some job and then just being like, oh my God, this is my life now.

367

And just working in an office and just every day forever.

368

And it's not necessarily forever.

369

You can always change jobs or whatever.

370

But it's just kind of this realization that, yep, this is like...

371

my adult life now and there's no there's no end to it

372

because when you're a kid it's always like okay there's the end to the school year

373

and then you go to the next level and the next level

374

and you're always looking forward to graduation and then you go to college

375

and you're looking forward to graduation and there's you know

376

and there's also much more of a social life

377

when you're in school you have this constant social life you know you're all with your friends

378

and whatever you're with a bunch of people your age

379

and stuff and it feels like i don't know we're in this group together.

380

But then when you have an adult job

381

and you're all on your own and you're just kind of doing the independent adult thing, it's like a big shock.

382

It's like a big lifestyle shock compared to what you had before.

383

And so that's what Lindsay is dealing with right now.

384

And that's a perfectly normal thing that a lot of people deal with.

385

And some people, they look deeper into that and they realize like, you know what, this is like not how I want to live my life.

386

This is not how life is meant to be lived and they go do something totally different and crazy like I did.

387

Some people just kind of suck it up and just just do it.

388

You know, they do what they need to do to just cope with it.

389

And they're just like, this is life.

390

Some people just really don't have a choice.

391

I mean, they just feel like I what else am I going to do?

392

I have no options.

393

You know, I got to make money.

394

My situation is difficult.

395

Situation is difficult in my country or whatever.

396

Like people deal with this feeling in different ways.

397

But I think a lot of people go through this just like,

398

fuck this is what i'm going to be slaving away at for the next multiple decades several decades like yikes

399

and basically what i responded to her with what i told

400

angela in my response in my message to her was like i totally get

401

this feeling i totally understand exactly like what she's going through

402

and i think a lot of people do too and yeah there's a big problem with human society in the,

403

you know, the system, the way that jobs are, the work -life balance is horrible.

404

The balance between like personal life and work is just, it's all out of whack.

405

But in general, human beings, I firmly believe that, you know, human beings, obviously we have to do a certain level of work.

406

I mean, if we all grew our own food on farms and we would have to do work,

407

but it's not supposed to be so monotonous and so constant and so much really,

408

you know, and I've lived on a farm and I've grown food and I know what that's like.

409

And I still believe this.

410

I still believe that the nine to five Monday through Friday sitting in an office, it's not like, you know, we have to work.

411

We have to do something.

412

We can't just like do absolutely nothing to, you know survive on this planet but it definitely doesn't have to be

413

so soul killing as it is the way the system is the way a lot of jobs are nowadays

414

it does not have to be

415

that soul killing it could be a million times better

416

and we could still get everything done

417

that we need to get done we could still have comfortable lives

418

but it would basically take a lot of restructuring of society.

419

And then also just just basic like workers rights that are not even basically in existence in the United States.

420

But anyways, this is a complex topic.

421

This is a lot.

422

But I'm getting into like I'm taking this to a deeper place right now.

423

But what I'm trying to say is just that it's not that people waking up to this don't want to work.

424

It's not even that we don't want to work hard.

425

It's just that so many jobs that we have now are just so like anti -human.

426

It's like they were designed for machines, basically, not for human beings.

427

And the same thing with the school system.

428

And anyways, that's a whole rabbit hole.

429

I didn't know I was going to go down, but I mean, I didn't even really go down it.

430

I just kind of talked about it in a very brief way.

431

But anyways, these are kind of the thoughts that come up when I think about this stuff.

432

So continuing with what my aunt was saying, there's no end to the internship at the end of the

433

summer where she goes back to school to see friends

434

and have a looser schedule yeah that's the thing that's what I love about my job is

435

that I create my schedule and the same thing

436

when I lived on a farm is that I could choose

437

when I wanted to do farm work

438

and that's that's one of one of the things

439

that I'm talking about when I say like these jobs are

440

so anti -human nowadays it's

441

because well not just nowadays I mean it's been like this for a

442

while but I think human beings when we can kind of choose

443

when we want to do the work

444

or we can kind of have more flexibility or it's not always the same every day.

445

Like we can kind of switch it up.

446

We can change it up.

447

I feel like that's much more of a human way to approach work, you know, than the nine to five Monday through Friday,

448

you know, it's like, that's so robotic.

449

So that's one of the reasons, you know, she preferred to be in college because the schedule is looser.

450

The classes are more like at random times.

451

You have big breaks in between it's just

452

Yeah, college is a nice, relaxed, looser schedule, but you're still being productive.

453

Like you're still getting work done.

454

You're still learning things, studying, whatever, but in a better schedule.

455

You know what I mean?

456

And it's just more interesting because you got classes about different topics and stuff.

457

I'm sure her current job is not that interesting compared to that.

458

It's probably about the same thing like all the time, basically.

459

And my aunt says to see friends and have a looser schedule and blah, blah, blah.

460

I think that coming to grips with her reality, coming to grips, like realizing it, facing it, confronting it, it's been a challenge.

461

But then you kind of superimpose her anxiety issues.

462

OK, so it doesn't matter if you don't know superimpose, but you can kind of understand based on the context that,

463

OK, so she's struggling with coming to grips with the reality of her work life.

464

And then you superimpose her anxiety level.

465

So you put that on top of it or you add that to the mix and then, you know, that's a lot.

466

It's a lot.

467

Anxiety plus to come into grips with reality.

468

She's been struggling a bit, but she'll get there.

469

Angela says she'll get there.

470

She'll be all right.

471

She'll get used to it or she'll figure it out or whatever.

472

And I told her, you know, sometimes working like this is a means to an end.

473

So this is an expression that my aunt loves.

474

My aunt always uses this expression.

475

It's a means to an end.

476

It's like a way to get to the end when Lindsay didn't like school and when I didn't like school,

477

she said, oh, it's a means to an end.

478

She told me this when I told her I'm going to drop out of college

479

when I was in college and I said, I'm going to leave.

480

I'm not going to graduate.

481

She said, well, it's a means to an end.

482

And now she's telling Lindsay this with her job.

483

It's a means to an end.

484

In this case, I don't think Angela means it's a means to an end, like it's a means to retirement and dying.

485

I don't think she means like it's a it's a way to get to retirement

486

I think she means well she's going to explain it

487

but it's just like a way to get some experience basically

488

but I don't always agree with Angela using

489

this like I I don't really agree with like yes

490

you you kind of have to try things out first to give it a chance try

491

it out maybe get some experience you know figure out everything is a learning experience in life

492

but if you if you always stay in things

493

that you don't like by thinking like oh

494

it's just a means to an end it's just like it's just a way to get to the next point

495

so stick it out

496

so stay with it i don't think that's really a good mentality to have i think

497

if something in you is telling

498

you to get the hell out of there i think

499

you should you know what i mean like i think

500

there's a reason why i guess it all depends on the situation you know

501

but yeah she says you need to get some experience

502

you need to earn some money it's true you need to be able to fund things

503

that you want to be able to do.

504

So fund, like pay for, need to be able to pay for things that you want to be able to do.

505

And maybe that means I think she'd like to own her own business one day.

506

So she thinks Lindsay would like to own her own business.

507

I don't know what that would be or whatever, but you need to walk before you run.

508

You need to walk before you run.

509

Yeah.

510

I mean, is it good to get some more life experience before going on to next level things.

511

Yeah, sure.

512

Also, she's super young.

513

She's 22 years old.

514

You know what I mean?

515

There's so, so much time to, I mean, people change their lives and reinvent themselves when they're 50.

516

People start new businesses that become successful when they're 50.

517

Like, you know, there's no rush.

518

Like she's like, she's a baby, you know, she's just getting some experience.

519

And I see that from one perspective, it's not that deep.

520

But on the other hand, if you're waking up every day, hating your life.

521

For me personally, that's not sustainable.

522

I got to get the hell out of there.

523

That's me.

524

That's me.

525

And people have different limits, I guess, where they, something in them just clicks, switches, and they're like, hell no,

526

I got to get out of here.

527

I have a low tolerance.

528

It's true.

529

I have a low tolerance for things that I don't want to do, things that piss me off.

530

I hate to be like trapped in things.

531

I hate commitments that I don't really want.

532

But as I get older

533

and I look back would I have dropped out of college the way

534

that I did I don't know I don't know

535

if I would have if I could go back

536

and do it with what I know now but I think

537

if I could go back

538

and do it with what I know

539

now I would have chosen something totally different anyway I think

540

I would have gone to a different school

541

I would have had a different major I would you know like everything would have been different

542

so it's useless to play that game of what would you do

543

if you could go back knowing what you know

544

now the reality is you're just you're living things for the first time in the moment

545

and you just got to go with your gut feeling

546

and that's all I've ever done is just go with my gut feeling with what I feel in my gut

547

you know in my my intestines so yeah that's what I've always done

548

and um it well it turned out good for me

549

but it's true Angela has a point you need to walk before you run I don't know this doesn't mean

550

that this is going to be the job this is the job

551

that you're going to be and for the rest of your life.

552

Yeah.

553

And that's important to remember.

554

She needs to know that she's not stuck there forever.

555

Life is too short to hate what you're doing.

556

Yeah.

557

Personally, I would say also life is too short to even not like what you're doing, even if you don't hate it,

558

but you don't like it.

559

I don't know.

560

Life is too short for that too, but I don't know.

561

I speak from a privileged place also.

562

It's a lot of people just, they don't have so many options of enjoyable jobs.

563

I don't know if she hates it, she says.

564

I don't think that's the issue

565

so much as just grasping the reality of I got to get up every morning and go to work.

566

All right.

567

So that's what Angela said about Lindsay.

568

This turned into longer than I thought.

569

I only got two audio clips because I just talked a lot about that one, that last one. So whatever.

570

No problem.

571

I got like four more of those audio clips.

572

So I'm going to have to make more videos where we go through this, where we analyze my aunt's audio messages.

573

You guys seem to love it.

574

I love it too. So great.

575

And you know what?

576

My aunt just sent me another one.

577

She just sent me a 20 minute audio message, but I'm not going to do this forever.

578

I'm not going to make these videos with my aunt's audio message forever.

579

So I'll probably do a couple more using the messages from this current one

580

that we're working on this current message that was 24 minutes.

581

I'll probably make a couple more videos about that and then we'll switch to another.

582

We'll do a different topic or I'll make a different kind of video or whatever.

583

I like to switch it up.

584

I don't want all my videos to be always about the same thing.

585

My aunt did say, go ahead, use my audio messages as much as you want.

586

I got no problem with that, but I like to keep it interesting on the channel and switch it up.

587

So that's that.

588

Thanks for being here with me.

589

Thanks for watching until the end.

590

You guys are the best ones.

591

The best viewers are those who watch until the end or listen.

592

You don't have to watch.

593

You can listen, but yeah.

594

Love ya.

595

All right.

596

Take care.

597

Bye now.

598

Bye now.

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचना	वीडियो में
Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — पहले शुरू हुआ काम जो अब भी जारी है	She's been struggling
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है	haven't seen · I've never even met · I've never met
Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी	people who are · work, which is · those who watch

/z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: anxiety /æŋˈzaɪ.əti/, realization /ˌɹɪə.laɪˈzeɪ.ʃən/, anyways /ˈɛn.iˌweɪz/, cousin /ˈkʌz(ə)n/, nowadays /ˈnaʊ.ə.deɪz/

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
