Transcriber: Zeynep Yagci Reviewer: Manlin Fang I have a secret that's going to help you achieve all of your goals and dreams.
2
I've spent the last 25 years seeing the patterns of what keeps people stuck.
3
And I've interviewed thousands of people all over the world.
4
And I asked them, how did you achieve your goal?
5
I asked this question in Paris and London, Rome and New York, and even here in San Diego.
6
I wanted to connect with people to see how they overcame their struggles and achieve success. I got to ask people on my podcast in my community and I even stopped strangers on the street.
7
You could say I got a little obsessive for a while.
8
And that's how I found the secret.
9
I noticed the one common thread that each person had as part of their success formula.
10
The missing piece to achieving your goals and your dreams.
11
And here’s the secret: When they achieved their goal, they were in a group with people who shared that same goal.
12
This is what I call my people.
13
So who are my people? It's a group of diverse individuals who have the same goal that you do.
14
They provide you with support, accountability and motivation so that you can achieve what you want to accomplish.
15
This helps you silence those limiting thoughts and the mental chatter, because you're no longer alone in your experience.
16
And as an added bonus, you're getting built in friends.
17
I put this theory to the test.
18
I was curious; if I put people in a group with a common objective, would that lead to their success?
19
So I formed multiple groups with thousands of people and I did fun challenges. I dared them to do micro-commitments around a common goal.
20
People got shocking results every single time.
21
One of my community members, Lala, joined people who wanted to do their bucket list.
22
One of the items on her list was to sing around the world.
23
During the connection in the community, and her seeing other people share their bucket list dreams.
24
She got the courage to do it.
25
Now she's singing in Spain and she's going to Morocco next.
26
Or Vicky. She joined my community when she wanted to start a podcast.
27
Her journey, it was tough.
28
She battled with perfectionism, self-doubt, and a fear of technology.
29
But when she saw other people just like her with similar struggles, also wanting to start podcasts, she got the push that she needed.
30
Now she's published over 100 podcast episodes.
31
And that’s the secret.
32
You can tap into the power of my people, just like they did.
33
Now, you may be thinking, my friends and family are my people.
34
I don't need to join a group. Let me show you how this works.
35
Imagine that you have a goal. Like, let's say you want to become an author.
36
So here's you wanting to write a book.
37
And this is your current network of people: your friends, your family, and your current support system. And you tell them about your plan.
38
You're excited and you're expecting them to get excited.
39
But because none of them have ever had this goal of writing a book in their life, they may say things like, “why would you want to do that?” “That’s going to be hard.” “That will take you forever.” They mean well, but they don't want to see you fail. They want to protect you.
40
You feel misunderstood, and you start wondering if this is something you want to do. Or you could have people wanting to support you, but they just have no idea how to help. That can only take you so far.
41
You may decide you want to hire a coach or a mentor or a therapist, and that's good. But it's just not enough on its own.
42
This is where so many people end up stuck for years, thinking they have to do it alone, and they end up on their deathbed wondering, why didn’t I achieve my dreams?
43
I believe if they had just this one missing piece, they could have built their legacy, and lived the life they were meant to live.
44
When you have people who have the same interest as you, and they’re on the same journey. You get access to the mothership.
45
(Applause) The source of everything that you want to learn, and all of the people who are interested in it, too.
46
Some are further ahead than you, and they want to help you out.
47
Others are behind you and you get to help them.
48
You may have experienced this before, whether it's in sports or school club, a business forum, an employee resource group, or maybe even a stand up comedy class.
49
Really any setting where people are united with a common purpose.
50
The camaraderie and mutual understanding.
51
And encouragement that we feel when we’re in a space with people who are on the same path as us and they’re going through similar things. It’s priceless.
52
But what we don’t realize is, as we leave those environments, or as new goals arise that support often fades.
53
The truth is, finding my people isn't just a one time thing.
54
It's something we need to do over and over again for the rest of our life.
55
Like Paul, who joined a speaking club after his military service.
56
Because he wanted to improve his public speaking.
57
He wasn’t afraid to fail or make mistakes.
58
Because he was with other people that wanted to improve their speaking too.
59
This built him the confidence to practice and find his voice in a safe place.
60
Now, Paul’s speaking in front of groups, and he even started a community where he gives people their own safe space to speak When we talk about attaining our goals, we often think about having the right mindset.
61
Knowing our why and accountability.
62
But the thing that we don't hear people saying is the secret, which is being with people that have a shared goal.
63
And that is what my challenge is for you today.
64
Every time you have a new goal, find a different group of people who share that same goal.
65
If you think about it, it's not as hard as it may seem.
66
We're all gathered here together. You are now my people.
67
We are connected by this thing called TEDx.
68
We support ideas that can change everything.
69
If you're listening to this, you have shown that you can find your people too.
70
So I’m going to share three words that I love saying to my people all of the time.
71
I dare you.
72
I dare you. Go out and find your people, whether it's online or in person.
73
It could be a class, an association, an event, a community.
74
And if you can't find it, create it.
75
You’ll discover that as you find your people, networks grow and so do you, and so does your capacity to do the thing that you want to do.
76
Thank you. Thank you.
77
(Applause)

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?

Questo video offre un'opportunità unica per migliorare la tua pratica di conversazione in inglese. La relatrice, Stacey Lauren, esplora il potere della comunità nel raggiungimento degli obiettivi, un argomento in cui molti possono identificarsi. Praticare la tua shadow speech con questo video non solo ti aiuterà a perfezionare le tue abilità linguistiche, ma ti permetterà anche di assimilare vocaboli e frasi utili. Parlare insieme a Stacey e ai suoi esempi concreti può aumentare la tua motivazione e darti nuove prospettive sulla collaborazione e il supporto reciproco. Ascoltare un discorso realizzato in un contesto reale ti aiuterà a rendere più fluida la tua espressione orale.

Grammatica ed espressioni nel contesto

Durante il suo intervento, Stacey utilizza diverse strutture grammaticali che possono risultare utili per i parlanti di inglese. Ecco alcune chiavi per la tua pratica di conversazione in inglese:

  • "I asked them, how did you achieve your goal?" - Questa struttura interrogativa è fondamentale per iniziare conversazioni significative.
  • "When they achieved their goal, they were in a group..." - L'uso del passato semplice in contesti narrativi aiuta a descrivere esperienze altrui.
  • "You could say I got a little obsessive for a while." - L'espressione colloquiale "got a little obsessive" rende il discorso più autentico e naturale.
  • "They provide you with support, accountability and motivation." - Qui trovi un elenco che non solo è utile grammaticalmente, ma fornisce anche un modello per esprimere favori o contributi.

Inserendo queste strutture nel tuo shadowspeak, migliorerai notevolmente la tua padronanza dell'inglese.

Trappole comuni di pronuncia

Quando segui un video come questo, è importante prestare attenzione a alcune parole e frasi che potrebbero presentare difficoltà di pronuncia. Di seguito, alcuni elementi da tenere a mente:

  • La parola "community" viene spesso pronunciata con l'accento sulla seconda sillaba, il che può essere un punto critico per chi non è madrelingua.
  • Fai attenzione a "motivation", che può facilmente essere confusa con l'accento sulla terza sillaba. Praticare questa parola ti aiuterà a migliorare la pronuncia inglese.
  • Frasi come "achieve your goals" richiedono una pronuncia chiara per essere comprese, specialmente in conversazioni rapide.

Utilizza il shadow speak per esercitarti con queste parole ascoltando e ripetendo dopo l'oratrice. Questo approccio non solo affina la tua pronuncia, ma rafforza anche la tua fluency.

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.
