1
Should you do it or not?
2
Is it better to act or not?
3
Should you speak up or not?
4
To be or not to be?
5
That is the question.
6
In any given day we are presented with thousands of decisions
7
from the trivial like choosing what socks to wear to the momentous like deciding to get married or not.
8
But every choice matters and every choice is painful.
9
In Shakespeare's Hamlet we meet a character who is torn by indecision and inner conflict, the same conflicts that you and I feel all of the time.
10
But there is something a bit excessive about Hamlet's inner thoughts.
11
They seem to get caught up in themselves and there is a sense that he is crippled by his own indecision.
12
But as the play goes on, it becomes clear that he is delaying and putting off his need to choose.
13
He debates with himself to avoid choosing.
14
Hamlet is caught in what Kierkegaard calls lost in the infinite.
15
It's a paralysis that comes on when we realise the scale of the choices available to us.
16
It's an awareness of the infinite variety of consequences that come in choosing one way or another.
17
It's felt in those crux moments as when you leave home
18
or after a breakup or if you come into some money or if you want to kill your uncle Claudius.
19
We delay by running the countless options over and over in our head because we are scared of making a choice.
20
In his most famous speech Hamlet has to make the ultimate decision should we endure
21
and carry on or should we just give up?
22
And it's a choice that we all have to make every day
23
and in every decision because choosing what socks to wear or who to marry is an example of affirming life.
24
Every choice commits to now.
25
Nietzsche once wrote that the lesson of Hamlet is that knowledge kills action.
26
To make a decision, to be anything, requires doing.
27
Hamlet's soliloquies are some of the greatest prose ever written but ultimately Hamlet needs to act.
28
We all need to act if we want to live.
29
Thank you.

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。
