1
Hey Psych2Goers, do you have low self-esteem?
2
Your self-esteem is a culmination of your physical self-image, accomplishments, capabilities, and perceived success.
3
In short, it's your opinion of yourself.
4
Some of us are blessed to have an environment that fosters high self-esteem.
5
Others are not so fortunate.
6
But despite unfortunate circumstances or events, you can cultivate high self-esteem.
7
Think of the protagonist who had a difficult childhood or a rough start in life.
8
despite the trials they faced, they were able to forge ahead.
9
Hopefully these few tips can help you believe in yourself again.
10
Number one, stop comparing yourself to others.
11
Sometimes comparisons can be helpful.
12
Using them as a template for improvement can inspire you to make changes.
13
Then again, sometimes they are a way for you to deconstruct yourself
14
and discover all the things that you think are wrong with you.
15
According to an article in Psychology Today, written by a physician, Dr. Baili, We can remind ourselves that people's outsides can't be compared to our insides.
16
This is because people can curate their social media versions of their lives
17
and they can do the same with their public lives.
18
You might have experienced being shocked when a couple appeared happy
19
and solid in a relationship until one of them announced their breakup.
20
Of course, we wish others well, but remember that you don't actually know what goes on behind closed doors
21
when their lives make you feel bad about your own.
22
Number two, overcome perfectionism.
23
I know, I know you're just trying to do your best and work hard to achieve your goals, but how can we know if we've crossed the line?
24
Have you been experiencing signs of procrastination, restlessness, being motivated by fear, and especially low self-esteem, well,
25
these are signs of a perfectionist.
26
Despite what social media tries to portray as a perfect life, creating one for yourself can lead to maladaptive rumination and deterioration of mental health.
27
Instead of achieving more, you may undergo more setbacks than you desire.
28
According to Oregon Counseling, we can take steps to overcome perfectionism through tendency awareness,
29
allowing room for mistakes, focusing on meaning over perfectionism, and setting reasonable goals for ourselves.
30
Number three, figure out what you're good at and develop it.
31
How do your abilities and self-esteem go hand in hand?
32
Well, your sense of purpose will increase.
33
When that happens, your self-esteem grows when you demonstrate to yourself your ability and competencies.
34
When you gain deeper fulfillment and inspire others around you, you can improve your self-esteem.
35
So how do you identify your abilities?
36
Try listing down what you love doing and your previous accomplishments.
37
It can be daily blogging, baking, cooking, or even science experiments that you did at a science fair.
38
Diving into activities that allow you to show off or discover your talents is a start to figuring out your strengths, which bring you confidence and purpose in life.
39
So tell us, what do you enjoy doing the most in your life?
40
Come on, don't be shy.
41
Let's hear it out in the comments.
42
And number four, focus on what you can change and the things that are in your control.
43
Dwelling on your worries can be a potent poison that whittles down your resolve.
44
It can trap you in an illusion that makes you believe that progress or anything remotely positive is impossible.
45
Instead of focusing on these negative thoughts, try focusing on what you can't change.
46
One way to overcome this is to label your thoughts as productive worry and unproductive worry.
47
To see things from a clear perspective.
48
When you know the difference between productive
49
and unproductive worrying you can start to manage your worries
50
which eventually helps you feel more confident in yourself your choices
51
and your abilities
52
so what's the difference you may ask well to keep it simple unproductive worry imagines all sorts of unlikely outcomes
53
and focuses on the what-ifs and worst case scenarios without any clear solutions
54
while productive worry He helps you solve a problem or resolve a situation and explores appropriate ways of finding solutions to problems.
55
Do you think you'll try some of these tips?
56
Remember, baby steps are the way to go.
57
It may seem scary to start, but just remember to be kind to yourself and let yourself make mistakes along the way.
58
Self-esteem is necessary to move forward in life.

Cos'è che imparerai?

Questo video ti aiuterà a migliorare due abilità chiave per parlare inglese con confidenza: la comprensione di discorsi conversazionali (con frasi fluide e argomenti pratici) e la capacità di esprimere concetti complessi come l'autoestima in modo chiaro. Inoltre, imparerai a identificare espressioni colloquiali utili per parlare di psicologia e benessere, come "low self-esteem" o "maladaptive rumination".

Ascolta questi suoni

Nella conversazione, noterai diversi esempi di connected speech (legature tra le parole). Ad esempio, "stop comparing yourself" si dice spesso come "stop comparin' yerself" (con la "g" di "comparing" ridotta e "yourself" pronunciato "yerself"). Inoltre, frasi come "how can we know" diventano "how can we know" con una legatura tra "can" e "we", creando un flusso più naturale. Attenta anche alle riduzioni come "I know, I know" pronunciato "I know, I know" con un accento leggero sulla seconda "know".

Parla come un madrelingua

Per imitare il ritmo e l'accento dello speaker, concentra ti sulla stressazione delle parole chiave. Nelle frasi come "focus on what you can change", la parola "focus" e "change" sono più forti, mentre le altre sono più leggere. Usa anche la shadowing in inglese: ripeti le frasi subito dopo lo speaker, cercando di seguire il suo tono e la sua velocità. Per esercitarti meglio, usa un shadowing site o semplicemente riproduci e pausa il video. Ricorda: il segreto è la pratica costante, anche con piccoli esercizi come "shadow speak" (ripetere a voce alta frasi brevi). Così imparerai a parlare con fluibilità e a trasmettere l'energia dello speaker, anche quando parli di argomenti seri come l'autoestima.

Imparare l'inglese con i video è un modo divertente e efficace per migliorare la tua pronuncia e la tua confidenza. Prova questi consigli e sentiti come un vero madrelingua!

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
