1
There's two ways to see the world.
2
Some people see the thing that they want, and some people see the thing that prevents them from getting the thing that they want.
3
There's a great story of two lumberjacks, where every morning they start chopping wood at the same time, and every day they stop chopping wood at the same time.
4
And every day one of the lumberjacks disappears for about an hour in the middle of the day, and every day he chops more wood than the other guy.
5
And this goes on for months.
6
And eventually the one who works all day, he says, I don't understand.
7
Every day we start at the same time.
8
Every day we stop at the same time.
9
Every day you disappear for about an hour in the middle of the day.
10
And every day you chop more wood than me.
11
Where do you go for that hour?
12
And the other lumberjack looks up and goes, oh, go home and sharpen my axe.
13
You know, that if you take an infinite mindset, it's not about how much you can get done each day.
14
It's how much you can get done over the course of a career or over the course of a lifetime.
15
and you got to take vacations which means you turn off your email and you turn off your phone and you do not connect to the office.
16
You know go sharpen your axe.
17
I have five little rules that you can follow as you find your spark and bring your spark to life.
18
The first is to go after the things that you want.
19
Let me tell you a story.
20
So a friend of mine and I we went for a run in Central Park.
21
The Roadrunners organization on the weekends they host races and it's very common at the end of the race they'll have a sponsor who
22
will give away something apples or bagels or something and on this particular day when we got to the end of the run
23
there were some free bagels and they had picnic tables set up and on one side was a group of volunteers on the table were boxes of bagels and on the other side was a long line of runners waiting to get their free bagel.
24
So I said to my friend, let's get a bagel.
25
And he looked at me and said, the line's too long.
26
And I said, free bagel.
27
And he said, I don't want to wait in line.
28
And I was like, free bagel.
29
And he says, nah, it's too long.
30
And that's when I realized that there's two ways to see the world.
31
Some people see the thing that they want and some people see the thing that prevents them from getting the thing that they want.
32
I could only see the bagels.
33
He could only see the line.
34
And so I walked up to the line.
35
I leaned in between two people, put my hand in the box and pulled out two bagels.
36
And no one got mad at me.
37
Because the rule is, you can go after whatever you want.
38
You just cannot deny anyone else to go after whatever they want.
39
So the point is, you don't have to wait in line.
40
You don't have to do it the way everybody else has done it.
41
You can do it your way.
42
You can break the rules.
43
You just can't get in the way of somebody else getting what they want.
44
Rule number two, take care of each other.
45
The United States Navy SEALs are perhaps the most elite warriors in the world.
46
And one of the SEALs was asked, Who makes it through the selection process?
47
Who is able to become a SEAL?
48
And his answer was, I can't tell you the kind of person that becomes a SEAL.
49
I can't tell you the kind of person that makes it through BUDS.
50
but I can tell you the kind of people who don't become SEALs.
51
He says the guys that show up with huge bulging muscles covered in tattoos who want to prove to the world how tough they are, none of them make it through.
52
He said the preening leaders who like to delegate all their responsibility and never do anything themselves, none of them make it through.
53
He said the star college athletes who've never really been tested to the core of their being.
54
none of them make it through.
55
He says some of the guys that make it through are skinny and scrawny.
56
He said some of the guys that make it through, you will see them shivering out of fear.
57
He says, however, all the guys that make it through,
58
when they find themselves physically spent, emotionally spent, when they have nothing left to give physically or emotionally,
59
Somehow, someway, they are able to find the energy to dig down deep inside themselves, to find the energy to help the guy next to them.
60
They become seals, he said.
61
You want to be an elite warrior, it's not about how tough you are, it's not about how smart you are, it's not about how fast you are.
62
If you want to be an elite warrior, you better get really, really good at helping the person to the left of you and helping the person to the right of you.
63
Because that's how people advance in the world.
64
The world is too dangerous and the world is too difficult for you to think that you can do these things alone.
65
If you find your spark, I commend you.
66
Now who are you going to ask for help and when are you going to accept help when it's offered?
67
Learn that skill.
68
Learn by practicing helping each other.
69
It'll be the single most valuable thing you ever learn in your entire life.
70
To accept help when it's offered and to ask for it when you know that you can't do it.
71
The amazing thing is when you learn to ask for help, you'll discover that there are people all around you who've always wanted to help you, they just didn't think you needed it because you kept pretending that you had everything under control.
72
And the minute you say, I don't know what I'm doing, I'm stuck, I'm scared, I don't think I can do this, you will find that lots of people who love you will rush in and take care of you.
73
But that'll only happen if you learn to take care of them first.
74
Lesson 3.
75
Nelson Mandela is a particularly special case study in the leadership world because he is universally regarded as a great leader.
76
You can take other personalities and depending on the nation you go to, we have different opinions about other personalities, but Nelson Mandela across the world is universally regarded as a great leader.
77
He was actually the son of a tribal chief, and he was asked one day, day, how did you learn to be a great leader?
78
And he responded that he would go with his father to tribal meetings.
79
And he remembers two things when his father would meet with other elders.
80
One, they would always sit in a circle.
81
And two, his father was always the last to speak.
82
You will be told your whole life that you need to learn to listen.
83
I would say that you need to learn to be the last to speak.
84
I see it in boardrooms every day of the week.
85
Even people who consider themselves good leaders, who may actually be decent leaders, will walk into a room and say, here's the problem, here's what I think, but I'm interested in your opinion, let's go around the room.
86
It's too late.
87
The skill to hold your opinions to yourself until everyone has spoken does two things.
88
One, it gives everybody else the feeling that they have been heard.
89
It gives everyone else the ability to feel that they have contributed.
90
And two, you get the benefit of hearing what everybody else has to think before you render your opinion.
91
The skill is really to keep your opinions to yourself.
92
If you agree with somebody, don't nod yes.
93
If you disagree with somebody, don't nod no. Simply sit there, take it all in,
94
and the only thing you're allowed to do is ask questions so that you can understand what they mean and why they have the opinion that they have,
95
you must understand from where they are speaking, why they have the opinion they have, not just what they are saying.
96
And at the end, you will get your turn.
97
It sounds easy, it's not.
98
Practice being the last to speak.
99
That's what Nelson Mandela did.
100
Lesson four.
101
In the 18th century, there was something that spread across Europe and eventually made its way to America called purple fever, also known as the black death of childbed.
102
Basically what was happening is women were giving birth and they would die within 48 hours after giving birth.
103
This black death of childbirth was the ravage of Europe and it got worse and worse and worse and worse over the course of over a century.
104
In some hospitals, it was as high as 70% of women who gave birth who would die as a result of giving birth.
105
But this was the Renaissance.
106
This was the time of empirical data and science, and we had thrown away things like tradition and mysticism.
107
These were men of science.
108
These were doctors.
109
And these doctors and men of science wanted to study and try and find the reason for this black death of childbed.
110
And so they got to work studying, and they would study the corpses of the women who had died.
111
And in the morning they would conduct autopsies, and then in the afternoon they would go and deliver babies and finish their rounds.
112
And it wasn't until somewhere in the mid-1800s that Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes realized that all of these doctors who were conducting autopsies in the morning weren't washing their hands before they delivered babies in the afternoon.
113
And he pointed it out and said, Guys, you're the problem.
114
And they ignored him and called him crazy for 30 years.
115
Until finally somebody realized that if they simply washed their hands, it would go away.
116
And that's exactly what happened.
117
When they started sterilizing their instruments and washing their hands, the black death of childbed disappeared.
118
The lesson here is sometimes you're the problem.
119
And my point is, is take accountability for your actions.
120
You can take all the credit in the world for the things that you do right, as long as you also take responsibility for the things you do wrong.
121
It must be a balanced equation.
122
You don't get it one way and not the other.
123
You get to take credit when you also take accountability.
124
There was a former Undersecretary of Defense who was invited to give a speech at a large conference about a thousand people.
125
And he was standing on the stage with his cup of coffee and a Styrofoam cup.
126
And he took a sip of his coffee and he smiled and he looked down at the coffee.
127
And then he went off script and he said, you know, last year I spoke at this exact same conference.
128
Last year I was still the undersecretary.
129
And when I spoke here last year, they flew me here business class.
130
And when I arrived at the airport, there was somebody waiting for me to take me to my hotel.
131
And they took me to my hotel and they had already checked me in and they just took me up to my room.
132
And the next morning I came downstairs and there was someone waiting in the lobby to greet me.
133
And they drove me to this here same venue and handed me a cup of coffee in a beautiful ceramic cup.
134
He says, I'm no longer the undersecretary.
135
I flew here coach.
136
I took a taxi to my hotel and I checked myself in.
137
When I came down the lobby this morning, I took another taxi to this venue.
138
I came in the front door and found my way backstage and when I asked someone, do you have any coffee, he pointed to the coffee machine in the corner and I poured myself a cup of coffee into this here styrofoam cup.
139
He says the lesson is, the ceramic cup was never meant for me.
140
It was meant for the position I held.
141
I deserve a Styrofoam cup.
142
Remember this, as you gain fame, as you gain fortune, as you gain position and seniority, people will treat you better.
143
They will hold doors open for you.
144
They will get you a cup of tea and coffee without you even asking.
145
They will call you sir and ma'am and they will give you stuff.
146
None of that stuff is meant for you.
147
That stuff is meant for the position you hold.
148
It is meant for the level that you have achieved of leader or success or whatever you want to call it.
149
But you will always deserve a Styrofoam cup.
150
Remember that.
151
Remember that lesson of humility and gratitude.
152
You can accept all the free stuff.
153
You can accept all the perks.
154
Absolutely, you can enjoy them.
155
But just be grateful for them and know that they're not for you.
156
We're asking our youngest generation to work and succeed and find themselves and build their confidence and overcome their addiction to technology and build strong relationships at work.
157
We're asking them to do this.
158
And these are the environments we've created.
159
We keep saying to them, you're the future leaders.
160
We're the leaders now.
161
We're in control.
162
what are we doing this is what empathy means it means if there's an entire generation struggling maybe it's not
163
them it's like you know the only thing that i that um the common factor in all my failed relationships me same thing
164
oh we just can't get the right out there you know the right performance out of our people maybe it's you right it's not a generation It's not them.
165
They're not difficult or hard to understand.
166
They're human beings like the rest of us trying to find their way, trying to work in a place where they feel that someone cares about them as a human being.
167
By the way, that's what we all want.
168
In other words, it's not even generational.
169
It's all of us.
170
This is the practice of empathy.
171
That if we're struggling to communicate to someone, if we're struggling to help someone be at their natural best, I'm tired of people saying to me, how do I get the best out of my people?
172
Really?
173
That's what you want?
174
They're like a towel.
175
You just ring them.
176
How can I get the most out of them?
177
No. How do I help my people be at their natural best?
178
Right?
179
We're not asking these questions.
180
We are not practicing empathy.
181
We have to start by practicing empathy and relate to what they may be going through.
182
And it will profoundly change the decisions we make.
183
It will profoundly change the way we see the world.
184
We're growing up in a Facebook, Instagram world.
185
In other words, we're good at putting filters on things.
186
We're good at showing people that life is amazing even though I'm depressed, right?
187
And so everybody sounds tough.
188
And everybody sounds like they got it all figured out.
189
And the reality is there's very little toughness and most people don't have it figured out.
190
And so when the more senior people say, well, what should we do?
191
They sound like this is what you got to do.
192
and they have no clue.
193
So you have an entire generation growing up with lower self-esteem than previous generations, right?
194
We know that engagement with social media and our cell phones releases a chemical called dopamine.
195
That's why when you get a text, feels good, right?
196
It's why we count the likes, it's why we go back 10 times to see if and if it's going if our Instagram is going slower, I would I do something wrong, do they not like me anymore, right?
197
The trauma for young kids to be unfriended right?
198
Dopamine is the exact same chemical that makes us feel good when we smoke, when we drink, and when we gamble.
199
In other words, it's highly highly addictive.
200
That's basically what happened.
201
You have an entire generation that has access to an addictive numbing chemical called dopamine through social media and cell phones as they're going through the high stress of adolescence.
202
Why is this important?
203
What's happening is because we're allowing unfettered access to these these dopamine producing devices and media, basically it's becoming hardwired.
204
And what we're seeing is as they grow older, too many kids don't know how to form deep meaningful relationships.
205
Their words, not mine.
206
They will admit that many of their friendships are superficial.
207
They will admit that their friends, that they don't count on their friends, they don't rely on their friends, they have fun with their friends.
208
But they also know that their friends will cancel on them as something better comes along.
209
Deep meaningful relationships are not there because they never practice the skill set.
210
And worse, they don't have the coping mechanisms to deal with stress.
211
So when significant stress starts to show up in their lives, they're not turning to a person, they're turning to a device, they're turning to social media, they're turning to these things which offer temporary relief.
212
I believe loving your work is a right and not a privilege.
213
I despise the fact, I lament the fact, I curse the fact that so few people get to say, I love my job, as if they've won some lottery.
214
You know, you go out with your friends and somebody says, I love my job, and everybody goes, oh my god, you're so lucky, right?
215
That to me is madness.
216
Everybody, the vast majority, should get to wake up and say, I love my job.
217
It is a right, it is a God-given right that we should love where we work and we should demand it.
218
We should demand that our leaders provide an environment in which we want to come, where we want to care about each other,
219
where we feel safe to express our vulnerabilities and our fears and our concerns, that we're open to correction and discipline and feedback, that we're not defensive because we know that it's being given to help us improve and grow.
220
And we want to improve and grow.
221
And in turn, we will help others improve and grow.
222
Because when we feel safe, when we feel that our leaders
223
care more about us than a number, they care more about our lives and our confidence and our joy and our skill set more than some short-term game,
224
that they care more about our priorities than the priorities of some disinterested external constituency,
225
then we will respond in kind and we will offer our blood and our sweat and our tears and we will make sacrifices of all kinds to see that our leaders vision is advanced and that this company continues to thrive.
226
Not for them, for ourselves.
227
It becomes deeply personal.
228
It becomes something we love contributing to.
229
I talk about it all the time.
230
Working hard for something we don't care about is called stress.
231
Working hard for something we love is called passion.

なぜこの動画でスピーキングを練習するのか?

Simon Sinekのこの動画は、英語でのスピーキングを実践するための素晴らしいリソースです。特に、彼のストーリーテリングの技術は、言語を学ぶ際に非常に有益です。動画の中で彼がシェアする考え方やエピソードは、視聴者に積極的な思考を促し、自分の意見を表現する能力を高めます。YouTubeで英語学習を進める中で、Sinekの情熱的なスピーチは、英語スピーキング練習に役立つ多くの表現や文法構造を学ぶ機会を提供しています。彼の言う「自分のやりたいことを追求する」ことは、スピーキングスキルの向上にも直結します。

文法と表現の文脈

この動画から学べる主な文法構造や表現を以下に挙げます:

  • 「There are two ways to see the world」 - 世界をどう見るかの選択肢を強調する表現。
  • 「I could only see the bagels」 - 自分の視点を示すための表現。主語に強調を置いています。
  • 「You just cannot deny anyone else to go after whatever they want」 - 他人の欲求に対する配慮を示す複雑な文構造。
  • 「Take care of each other」 - 短く、でも力強い命令形の表現。日常会話にも利用できる。

これらの構造は、IELTS スピーキング対策においても非常に重要です。コンテキストに合った表現力を磨くことで、より自然な英会話ができるようになります。

一般的な発音の落とし穴

この動画では、いくつかの発音が特に注意が必要です:

  • 「lumberjack」 - アクセントの違いに注意が必要。特に母音「u」の発音が曖昧になりがちです。
  • 「sharpen my axe」 - /ʃ/と/a/の音の明瞭さが求められます。
  • 「take vacations」 - /v/の音が正確に発音されていないと、意味が伝わりづらくなるかもしれません。

これらの言葉を正しく発音することは、英語スピーキング練習において重要なスキルです。shadow speechを通じて、自然な音の使い方を習得する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。
