Kat says no. This is a video about time management.
2
Like, I do not use time the way I think I do.
3
Something I do these days is I time myself on my phone to track how much work I actually do.
4
I got this idea on the internet somewhere.
5
And I do this on days where I don't have to physically go into work.
6
So I'm like often at home working on music or on videos or whatever.
7
And it has given me a lot of insight.
8
I'd recommend this to anybody if you haven't tried it if you want to get better at your time management.
9
But the glaring conclusion that I have come to is
10
that I do not use my time the way that I think I do.
11
It's not even close.
12
I do not do as much work for as long as I think I do.
13
It's weird.
14
We all obviously value time.
15
We all have to maneuver it.
16
We all understand how it works.
17
But I've observed in myself the mental gymnastics that I do that misrepresents in my mind how I actually use my time.
18
How time actually moves for me and the typical results that are attained from a certain amount of time.
19
Bro, for years, like, I convinced myself that on a day in which I didn't have work,
20
right, I would say to myself,
21
like, oh, well, like, this is my day off.
22
Like, obviously, I can get eight hours,
23
maybe 10 hours of great work done.
24
But it's like, no, I don't.
25
I don't have 10 hours of time.
26
That is impossible.
27
I realistically will have to do other things.
28
Other things will pop up.
29
I can't possibly spend 100% of my waking hours making music.
30
So a couple years back,
31
I started implementing this thing where I would set a timer on my phone whenever I was working.
32
And the explicit rules that I had to follow were that I had to stop the timer anytime I did anything else.
33
So if I got a phone call,
34
if I had to cook,
35
if I had to clean,
36
if I get distracted in any way,
37
if I have to do anything else,
38
I have to turn the timer off until I begin again.
39
And I would do this on days where I thought I had plenty of time to get stuff done.
40
And needless to say, what I thought going in would be like an easy eight hour workday,
41
I very quickly realized like,
42
dude, I only spent three and a half hours doing work today.
43
And the strange thing was that that would feel like a lot to me.
44
It felt like I was locked in all day when in reality,
45
I spent more than half of that hypothetical eight hour day doing other things.
46
It's my day off.
47
And realistically, a lot of other things need to get taken care of.
48
I think as I was leaving college,
49
I started to watch those like Kenny Beats videos where he would be like,
50
if you're really about this music shit,
51
like you should be making beats 14 hours a day.
52
And as like a 22 year old,
53
I was like, you're right.
54
Like I could do that easily.
55
And that's just not the case, unfortunately.
56
Setting the timer and all that,
57
like it doesn't have to be a strict disciplinary thing.
58
It doesn't have to be torture because I think what it demonstrated for me was
59
that would I realistically be able to spend a meaningful,
60
precocious eight hours doing work?
61
I don't know, to be honest.
62
Now, that depends on the person, of course.
63
Ultimately, it is about long-term consistency,
64
but consistency is more achievable if I have actual information that backs up.
65
Like, how do I use my time?
66
How do I function?
67
How do I get work done?
68
I guess I've been trying to shave off as much fat from my life as possible.
69
And I've learned that this is easier said than done.
70
But yeah, I still do it to try to hold myself accountable.
71
Maybe it will help you as well.
72
Those are just some insights that I've had.
73
Yeah, thank you for watching.

練習のコツ

この動画のペースとトーンに合ったシャドーイングを行うためには、いくつかのポイントに注意しましょう。まず、動画の内容をじっくりと聴き、どのように話が進むかを理解することが大切です。

次に、shadow speechを行う際は、リスニング中に話者のイントネーションやアクセントを真似しましょう。また、動画の再生速度を調整することができる場合は、少しスピードを落として、より正確に発音を真似ることができます。これにより、英語シャドーイングの効果を最大限に引き出すことができるでしょう。

さらに、学んだ語彙を利用して、自分自身の経験や感想を英語で話す練習を行うことも有効です。例えば、英語スピーキング練習として、あなた自身の時間管理の経験について話してみてください。自分の考えを取り入れることで、より意欲的に学ぶことができるでしょう。

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
