Hi, what's up everybody?
2
It's me, Tommy.
3
I am in the middle of my trek and it's been two hours already.
4
I've gone through something bad recently and I just feel like the world is against me.
5
I don't feel like myself.
6
I have some negative thoughts and I decided to go into the nature to really heal myself and I hope that it can help me feel better and it really does.
7
So I think I should have a short podcast episode to talk about this, you know, how I deal with my negative feelings and what I do when I have bad days.
8
So this is the short podcast episode, slow version, and I hope you enjoy it.
9
Let's go find somewhere to sit and take a break.
10
So I think this is a great spot right here.
11
So yeah beautiful spot right for this short podcast episode.
12
So in today's episode I will talk about three things that I do whenever I have a bad day.
13
The very first thing that I do is to have the De-Cheeto Detox.
14
I love sharing content, I love spreading value, you know, to the people around me.
15
I'm a content creator, so I go online every single day.
16
And I think social media has opened, I mean, endless doors for me, you know, helping me with meeting new people and spreading meaningful messages and helping a lot of people but also it has stolen a lot for me like my peace so whenever i feel like i'm having a bad day and i just keep telling myself that you need to get away from social media tommy maybe a day or two you know I try to stay away from social media and it helps a lot I mean to just go for a walk go for a trek to really immerse myself in nature it can really be a game changer to be right here deep in the nature when nobody's around what you can hear right now is the sound of the stream the birds singing the trees talking nature is the best medicine so whenever you feel down whenever you feel like everything is against you try to find somewhere go somewhere with nature and take some fresh air, really.
17
sometimes you need to disconnect with the world around you to really reconnect with yourself and the best thing to do is probably to immerse yourself in nature this is the form of relaxation that I want so that's the very first thing and the second thing that I usually do to deal with my negativity is to sit quietly and journal.
18
You know, that's the best way.
19
Whenever I do so, I have all my thoughts down onto a piece of paper.
20
I feel like problems sold.
21
Really.
22
And after a few days, when I look back, I just laugh at myself for how silly I was, how crazy I couldn't imagine myself thinking or acting like that and the problems seem not to be that bad that big so really having your thoughts down onto a piece of paper can really help you feel so much better so next time when you have something happen in your life please go sit down.
23
No phone, nothing, no one around you, there's only you, your thoughts have all them down onto a piece of paper and I mean you feel like life is still beautiful and the problem is not that big.
24
So the third thing that I have is to have an accepting mindset.
25
There will be some things that I can't control.
26
There will be some things that are out of my hand.
27
So I mean, instead of trying to control everything and everyone around me, I try to have an accepting mindset.
28
People will act the way that they want, no matter how good I am, no matter how kind that that I treat them, no matter how much that I want them to change or I want things to go my way.
29
Sometimes things cannot be the way that I want.
30
I heard this one.
31
The fastest way to be happy in life is to lower your expectation.
32
Do not expect too much on other people or other things expect in yourself.
33
So have an accepting mindset.
34
So this is something that I always say to myself like whenever things happen that I can't control, that I can't do anything about it and I just say to myself can't change it.
35
If something that you can't change why wasting your time worrying about that.
36
so those are three things that I do on my bad day so what about you how do you deal with your bad days let me know in the comments and I hope you enjoy this short podcast episode and yep I hope you have a beautiful day peace

このビデオで話す練習をする理由は？

この短いポッドキャストエピソードでは、トミーさんが「悪い日」を乗り越えるための方法について話しています。彼の話し方や表情から、感情を表現する大切さが伝わってきます。このビデオを通じて、感情や考えを伝える英語のスキルを磨くことができます。また、自分の状況をポジティブに変えるための具体的な手段を学ぶことで、自己表現する力を向上させることも可能です。英語シャドーイングの実践を通じて、トミーさんのように自分の声を見つけ、より自信を持って英語を話すことができるようになります。

文法と表現の文脈

トミーさんが使用する重要な構造には、以下のようなものがあります：

  • 「try to + 動詞」 - 自分の行動や努力を表現する際によく使われる構造です。例："I try to stay away from social media."（SNSから離れるようにしています。）
  • 「instead of + 名詞/動詞-ing」 - 代わりに何かをすることを示します。例："instead of trying to control everything"（すべてをコントロールしようとするのではなく）。
  • 「accepting mindset」 - 新しい語彙として、「受け入れる心構え」を強調しています。日常会話に取り入れることで、ネガティブな状況にどう対処するかを表現できます。

こうした文法や表現を身につけることで、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ちます。

一般的な発音トラップ

トミーさんの発音の中で特に注意が必要な点はいくつかあります。例えば：

  • "nature" - こちらは「ネイチャー」と正確に強調することが重要です。言葉の途中での音の流れにも注意しましょう。
  • "accepting" - の発音では、母音の部分が曖昧になりやすいので注意が必要です。正しいアクセントをつけて言うことが大切です。

こうしたポイントを意識的に練習することで、英語の発音を良くすることができ、相手に伝わりやすくなります。ビデオを視聴しながら、YouTubeで英語学習を進めるのが効果的です。

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。
