1
Let's learn how to work our machinery a little bit.
2
I agree.
3
We don't in this culture teach people how to operate their mind and body.
4
How do you get motivated?
5
Well, one way to do that is if you are good at subjectively attaching dopamine to the pursuit.
6
Just knowing, okay, I really am hungry for this.
7
I'm just going to tell myself that, you know, making it 1% of the way is a success.
8
And I'm going to keep going and I'm going to keep ratcheting on.
9
And then the other aspect of it is that anytime that we're leaning into action,
10
you know, it has the possibility of being an amplifying process or a depleting process.
11
And the key to that is making sure that you're balancing the dopamine and epinephrine systems.
12
We have to remember that this mechanism of dopamine and pathfinding to goals is in every animal,
13
humans dogs Sheep so grazing animal might be on a really barren landscape.
14
They go some direction and They don't smell water
15
which animals can do and so they veer off course
16
And then all of a sudden they get a little bit of scent of water at
17
that point That's when the dopamine is released not when they get the water and drink from it
18
So that puts them in energy to get there
19
You know you think about walking in the desert
20
and you're just dying of thirst
21
and all of a sudden you spot a big lake All
22
of a sudden you will have the energy to run the remaining mile Whereas before you thought you were gonna die.
23
How is that?
24
How is that?
25
It's not like more glycogen is suddenly available It's not like ketones did it for you.
26
So what did it?
27
That's dopamine.
28
That's dopamine release that says there's a reward waiting for me
29
And I would say finally in 2020 we finally as a
30
field got a clear idea of how dopamine is really working If you can start to register, ah, that craving and that friction and that desire,
31
that almost kind of low level of agitation, sometimes high level of agitation, that is that I'm trying to impose my will on the world in a benevolent way, we hope, that's dopamine.
32
It's working with its close cousin, which is epinephrine, which is adrenaline.
33
They are very close cousins.
34
In fact, dopamine manufactures epinephrine.
35
A lot of people don't know this, but adrenaline is actually made from the molecule dopamine.
36
Okay, so those two are hanging out together.
37
It's like crave work, crave work, crave and work, crave and work, crave and work.
38
And then you get the win.
39
And some people allow the big peak in dopamine to be associated with the win.
40
and smart people learn to adjust their celebration internally, right?
41
This is all internal.
42
You could throw the biggest party in the world, but as long as you're kind of laid back and looking at this, not letting yourself get manic crazy,
43
you won't necessarily crash as hard, and pretty soon your system will reset.
44
So you take the day, you clean up the dishes, you relax, you go, what now?
45
I'm feeling a little low.
46
Well, rather than going out and spiking your dopamine again, Just wait understand that the scale will reset again.
47
Give yourself a few days where you're gonna feel a little kind of underwhelm Things aren't gonna be as interesting
48
It's gonna be hard to trigger that big release because you just had that the peak Well, if you adjust that you relax you understand there's always a little bit of a postpartum depression
49
We sometimes hear about postpartum depression.
50
That's a clinical thing But there's always
51
that kind of hmm today's not as exciting as a previous days What am I going to do with my life?
52
But then, if you let it start ratcheting up again, then what you realize is your capacity to tap into dopamine as a motivator,
53
not just seeking dopamine rewards, that is infinite.
54
And I can say with great certainty that this is how you were able to build a big company and sell it, how you've been able to build a successful podcast and sell it,
55
how you're constantly seeking because seeking is the reward.
56
And I think for most people, we think of the reward as the finish line.
57
And so the key is to get to the finish line, step into the end zone, but no end zone dance.
58
It's just like, yep, and now I'm going to go do it again.
59
How we view the world is shaping the release of these chemicals.
60
And I do believe this happens when we have positive thoughts, we get a lift.
61
If we can get a lift from our positive thoughts
62
and then dopamine itself puts us in relationship with the outside world such
63
that we view the outside world as having more possibility, that is going to put us into forward momentum.
64
There are good, there are a lot of studies to support that.
65
The key with positive thinking is is that it has to be honest.
66
It can't be I've already won, you know, I don't have an Olympic gold medal.
67
If I could tell myself I'm gonna get one tomorrow, but I just don't have the skills.
68
So that's not gonna release dopamine in my system.
69
The key thing is that you can't just be all gas pedal all the time without rewarding yourself.
70
It's mental energy, it's the desire to push on, it's the desire to keep going.
71
So we need some consistent dopamine hits throughout the days or our months to give us more energy to pursue.
72
That's right.
73
But we don't want to be over pursued because then we'll burn out.
74
That's right.
75
And so everyone has to find where that sweet spot is.
76
There's a lot of interest these days in like habits
77
and habit formation because when you move that horizon in close and you complete something small, it's not about what you completed, it's the fact that you complete it.
78
So one thing to understand is that dopamine release in the brain is always subjective.
79
There's no experience that has unique domain over dopamine release that will only allow dopamine release.
80
So it's very subjective.
81
So if I say to myself, I'm going to get into the process of doing something, we have a new year coming up, so there'll be a lot of resolutions soon.
82
The, it's not, if you attach the dopamine release to the process of effort or goal setting itself,
83
you'll have more energy to be in effort.
84
And then if you can attach dopamine release to the belief that you're at least heading in the right direction, you'll have more energy to keep going in the right direction.
85
People make the mistake of thinking that the positive thought process should be attached to the finish line.
86
It's not about thinking you've already won.
87
It's not about being delusional.
88
It's about thinking that your training is going to take you to the finish line.
89
And so it's about moving that mental horizon in more closely
90
and then triggering some sort of positive internal representation of what you're doing.
91
Meaning thinking positive.
92
And people this is usually where I get stopped and people say wait, but it sounds so subjective Tell me exactly how to do it, but here's a good thought.
93
It's it's supposed to be subjective
94
This is this new
95
Everyone needs to figure out what allows them to continue to
96
be in forward momentum what allows them to constrain the world of possibilities
97
and to go after goals and how often to self-reward because
98
But the key is the self word because
99
if you start only pursuing external rewards That's when you are no longer in control of your dopamine system
100
Make sure that that reward really bask in it really appreciate what you've done
101
and what's come to you and but and here's a very important but is but
102
Take that feeling of being saturated with dopamine, the huge win, and attach it to the effort process that got you there.
103
you

Informazioni su questa lezione

In questa lezione, esploreremo i concetti fondamentali legati alla motivazione e al funzionamento del nostro cervello, come spiegato da un neuroscienziato. Imparerai come il dopamine gioca un ruolo cruciale nel stimolare la tua motivazione e come puoi applicare queste informazioni per migliorare la tua pratica di conversazione in inglese. Attraverso l'ascolto e la ripetizione (shadowing), avrai l'opportunità di affinare la tua pronuncia e la tua fluidità, utilizzando tecniche basate sulle scoperte neuroscientifiche.

Vocabolario e frasi chiave

  • Dopamina - Un neurotrasmettitore che gioca un ruolo essenziale nella motivazione e nel premio.
  • Epinefrina - Un'altra molecola associata con il rilascio di adrenalina e la risposta al piacere.
  • Processo amplificante - Un approccio che aumenta il tuo impegno e la tua energia verso un obiettivo.
  • Frustrazione - La sensazione di tensione che può accompagnare il desiderio di raggiungere un obiettivo.
  • Ricompensa - L’elemento gratificante che segna il completamento di un obiettivo.
  • Craving - La voglia intensa di raggiungere un obiettivo o un desiderio.
  • Riposizionamento - La capacità di fare una pausa per rimettersi in carreggiata dopo un'esperienza intensa.

Consigli per la pratica

Per migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese e la tua abilità nel parlare, ti consiglio di praticare la tecnica del shadowspeak ascoltando il video. Inizia con un ascolto attivo, prestando attenzione al tono e al ritmo del relatore, che è calmo ma incisivo. Poi, prova a ripetere le frasi a voce alta, seguendo il loro flusso naturale. Fai attenzione a mantenere un'intonazione simile e a non affrettarti. Se necessario, rallenta il video per afferrare ogni parola.

Ricorda che il shadowing in inglese è un ottimo modo per assimilare le strutture linguistiche e migliorare la tua pronuncia. Non preoccuparti se inizialmente non riesci a mantenere il passo; la pratica costante ti aiuterà a progredire. Infine, fallo con regolarità, dando a te stesso il tempo di assorbire le informazioni. Se senti la necessità di una pausa, ricorda che il “riposizionamento” del tuo stato emozionale è normale durante il processo di apprendimento.

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.
