I've always thought of my 20s as this one big contradiction.
2
In some things you find your way, and in others, you're completely lost.
3
Somehow this era of your life is both the best of it and the worst of it.
4
And just when you think you've cracked the code, the rules change.
5
I used to believe that there was one clear path, that if I followed it, things would happen the way everyone said it would.
6
But now I know it's a little more complicated than that.

10
Thanks.
11
Hi. Where do I start?
12
Earlier this year, I came to the realization that I am approaching the end of my 20s.
13
And aside from trying not to freak out about it, it also got me thinking.
14
Your late 20s are an interesting time.

22
With the goals and milestones that I would hit, thinking that I had a lot of time to to achieve it all.

But now that I'm near the end of it, I realize that there's still a few things that I haven't done
24
that I thought I would have by now so I want to see if I could change that
25
actually this whole thing came to be when I realized
26
that last year I spent majority of my time at my
27
desk no gardening no home projects just everything on the back
28
burner basically I kind of let work take over my life a bit.
29
Granted, it was a crazy year.
30
Two years passed by and I realized that there's still a lot of things
31
that I said I would do that I haven't done yet.
32
And a lot of those things were just the small things that I enjoyed, you know.
33
So lately, I've been trying to put more effort into that again.
34
But that's okay.
35
We're gonna...
36
We're gonna figure it out.
37
We're figuring it out.
38
I'm gonna have to tell you 11 instead of 12.

Yeah, maybe something that'll work.

Nothing's ever felt so real to me.

I want you to know you're my everything.

55
It's funny.
56
You go the first half of this decade with people telling you that you have so much time.
57
Then all of a sudden, you're expected to have it all together.
58
But the truth is, no one exactly tells you when to make that switch.
59
We think not knowing what to do is the hard part, but not being clear on our choices is what really holds us back.
60
Often we think we need to know everything before we start, to feel prepared and to have all the plans laid out in front of us.
61
But it's actually through doing something that our next steps will be revealed.
62
You can never really be prepared for how fast time moves.
63
One day you're 22 and the next you're 28.
64
And day to day nothing seems too different.
65
But when you look back, everything is.
66
I'm trying to make more time to do things that I've always wanted to do, but felt like, for some reason, I didn't have the time to back then.
67
I think at one point all I wanted was enough time to watch all the movies and read all the books
68
But as I moved through life, I realized that even if you do have the time, it doesn't mean you'll actually do it
69
If we don't intentionally decide on how we want to spend our time
70
We'll always find something else to fill that time with Maybe I'm just being dramatic.

but they are enough to challenge me for the next four months given where I'm at right now in my life.
78
They are things that I've either wanted to do for the last couple of years that I've never really got to,

things that I've just want to incorporate more into my life

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.
