Hello, and welcome back to Everyday English Talk,
2
the podcast that helps you practice simple, everyday English.
3
I'm Anna.
4
And I'm Ben.
5
Today, we're talking about something very important for everyone, motivation.
6
Yes, motivation means the energy or reason to keep going,
7
even when you feel tired or lazy.
8
Sometimes we all feel like we don't want to study,
9
work, or do exercise.
10
That's normal.
11
But what can we do when we feel this way?
12
How can we stay motivated in daily life?
13
That's our topic today.
14
We'll share easy tips to help you stay positive and keep moving forward.
15
And don't forget, you can also download our free PDF transcript.
16
It includes today's script, vocabulary, and practice exercises.
17
You'll find the link in the description.
18
You can read along while listening or review it later when you study.
19
So, let's begin with a simple question for you, our listener.
20
What do you do when you feel tired or don't want to work?
21
So, Ben, let's talk about one simple way to stay motivated.
22
Yes, one very good way is to set small goals.
23
Small goals?
24
Hmm, can you explain more?
25
Of course, a goal is something you want to do,
26
something you want to finish.
27
For example, your goal could be,
28
I want to learn English.
29
Ah, I see.
30
So when I finish my homework,
31
maybe I can watch my favorite show.
32
That is my reward.
33
Exactly.
34
But that big goal can feel difficult.
35
Sometimes it feels too heavy.
36
Yes, if I say, I want to be perfect, maybe I feel stressed.
37
Maybe I don't even want to start.
38
That's right, but if you make a small goal, it feels easier.
39
It feels possible.
40
For example, instead of saying,
41
I want to learn English perfectly,
42
I can say, I will learn five new words today.
43
Perfect example.
44
That is a small goal.
45
You can do it in a short time.
46
And after I learn five words,
47
I can say, wow, I finished my goal.
48
That makes me happy.
49
Yes, when you finish a small goal, you feel successful.
50
You feel strong.
51
Hmm.
52
Then, can we think of more examples of small goals?
53
Sure.
54
Let's think about studying.
55
A big goal is, I will read this whole English book.
56
Wow, that feels very hard.
57
Maybe 200 pages?
58
Yes, but a small goal could be,
59
I will read two pages today.
60
Ah, yes.
61
Just two pages.
62
That feels possible.
63
Another example.
64
Exercise.
65
A big goal is, I want to run a marathon.
66
That is 42 kilometers.
67
Oh, no. That's too big for me.
68
Yes, me too.
69
But a small goal is,
70
I will walk for 10 minutes today.
71
Yes, 10 minutes is easy.
72
And if you do it every day,
73
little by little, you get stronger.
74
That's the secret.
75
Small steps make big changes.
76
I think small goals are also good for cleaning.
77
Cleaning?
78
Oh yes, tell me.
79
A big goal is, I want my whole house to be clean today.
80
That sounds very difficult.
81
Yes, but a small goal is,
82
I will clean my desk.
83
Or, I will wash the dishes.
84
Exactly.
85
Just one small job.
86
When you finish, you feel good.
87
Maybe you do another small job.
88
Yes.
89
One by one, the house becomes clean.
90
So Ben, why are small goals so powerful?
91
Good question.
92
Number one.
93
Small goals give you success.
94
When you finish them, you feel proud.
95
Number two, small goals are not scary.
96
They are easy to start.
97
Number three, small goals make big progress.
98
Step by step, little by little, you go forward.
99
I like that, step by step.
100
It's like climbing a mountain.
101
Yes, if you say, I must climb the whole mountain now, you feel afraid.
102
But if you say, I will take one step, it feels okay.
103
And after many small steps,
104
you are at the top.
105
Do you have a small goal, Anna?
106
Yes.
107
My small goal is to write in English for five minutes every day.
108
That's a good one.
109
Do you write in a diary?
110
Yes.
111
Just a few sentences about my day.
112
For example, today I cooked rice.
113
I watched a movie.
114
I talked to my friend.
115
Simple but powerful.
116
Every day you write, your English grows.
117
What about you, Ben?
118
Do you have a small goal?
119
Yes.
120
My small goal is to drink more water.
121
I say, I will drink one extra glass of water today.
122
That's healthy.
123
And very possible.
124
So, remember, big goals are good,
125
but small goals help you every day.
126
That's right.
127
Small goals make you happy,
128
give you progress, and help you stay motivated.
129
Start small, and soon you will see big results.
130
And now, let's think about another way to stay motivated.
131
So, Ben, we talked about small goals in the last part.
132
Yes, small goals are very powerful.
133
But there is another way to stay motivated.
134
Oh, what way?
135
It is to reward yourself.
136
Reward?
137
What does that mean?
138
A reward is something good you give to yourself after you finish a job.
139
It's like a little present.
140
Ah, I see.
141
So when I finish my homework,
142
maybe I can watch my favorite show.
143
That is my reward.
144
Exactly.
145
A reward is like fuel for your motivation.
146
So, rewards are like, thank you for yourself.
147
Yes, you say, good job me,
148
I worked hard, now I enjoy a reward.
149
Can you give me some examples of rewards, Ben?
150
Sure.
151
One example is food or drink.
152
If I study for one hour,
153
I drink a cup of tea as a reward.
154
Oh, I like that.
155
After studying, you enjoy tea.
156
Another example is music.
157
After finishing a job, I listen to one of my favorite songs.
158
That sounds nice.
159
Music is relaxing and fun.
160
Or you can take a short break,
161
walk outside, stretch your body,
162
or sit in the sun for five minutes.
163
Yes.
164
A break can feel like a reward too.
165
What about you, Anna?
166
What rewards do you like?
167
Hmm.
168
For me, I like to watch a short video.
169
If I write something for work,
170
then after, I watch a funny video.
171
That's my little reward.
172
Oh, I see.
173
Something to make you laugh.
174
Yes.
175
And sometimes my reward is chocolate.
176
That's a sweet reward.
177
I think rewards are important because they give you energy.
178
Yes, that's true.
179
If you work and work and never reward yourself, you feel tired.
180
But if you reward yourself,
181
you feel happy and ready to do more.
182
Exactly.
183
A reward is like fuel for your motivation.
184
But Ben, can rewards be too big?
185
Good question.
186
Yes, sometimes people make rewards too big.
187
For example, I studied for one hour,
188
now I will buy a very expensive phone.
189
That's too much.
190
Yes, that is not good.
191
Rewards should be small and simple, not too big.
192
So, the key is, keep rewards small, fun, and healthy.
193
Yes.
194
A cup of tea, a short walk,
195
a favorite song, a little chocolate.
196
These are perfect.
197
Let's practice some short sentences with reward.
198
Good idea.
199
Listeners, you can repeat after us.
200
I reward myself after I study.
201
I watch a movie as a reward.
202
My reward is to drink coffee.
203
I take a short break as my reward.
204
Great job, everyone.
205
So, let's review.
206
First, work on your goal.
207
Second, when you finish, give yourself a small reward.
208
Then, you feel happy and ready for the next goal.
209
Yes, it's a simple system.
210
Work, reward, motivation.
211
So listeners, remember, don't forget to reward yourself.
212
Yes, even a very small reward can give you new energy.
213
Work hard, then enjoy a little present for yourself.
214
That way, you stay happy and motivated.
215
Exactly.
216
So Ben, we talked about small goals and rewards,
217
but I think there's another very important point about staying motivated.
218
What is it?
219
It's about your environment.
220
The place where you study, work, or practice.
221
Ah, yes.
222
A positive environment can really help.
223
If your space is clean,
224
quiet, and comfortable, it's much easier to stay motivated.
225
Exactly.
226
Imagine this.
227
Your desk is full of books, papers, and trash.
228
You can't find your pen.
229
Your phone is making noise.
230
Would you feel motivated?
231
No way.
232
I would feel tired before I even start.
233
Me too.
234
But if your desk is clean,
235
your chair is comfortable, and you have a bright light, you feel ready.
236
That's right.
237
A small change can make a big difference.
238
Even just opening the window for fresh air can give you more energy.
239
Yes.
240
And some people like to play soft music while they work.
241
Oh, like jazz or piano music?
242
Exactly.
243
Something calm.
244
It makes you feel relaxed but focused.
245
I sometimes listen to nature sounds, like rain or birds.
246
It helps me concentrate.
247
That's a great list.
248
And remember, you don't need to do everything at once.
249
True.
250
You should try different things and see what works best for you.
251
Another point is about the people around you.
252
Oh yes, people can change your environment too.
253
For example, if you study with a friend who is serious,
254
you feel serious too.
255
Yes.
256
But if you study with someone who always checks their phone or talks too much,
257
then it's very hard to stay motivated.
258
I remember one time I went to the library with my friend.
259
He worked very hard, so I also wanted to work hard.
260
That's a perfect example.
261
A positive environment is not only about the desk or room,
262
it's also about the people near you.
263
Exactly.
264
If the people around you are focused and positive,
265
you will feel the same.
266
And sometimes, even small things can help.
267
Like putting a green plant on your desk.
268
Or a photo that makes you happy.
269
Yes.
270
Something that makes your space nice and comfortable.
271
I also think about light.
272
If a room is too dark, I feel sleepy.
273
But with bright light, I feel more awake.
274
Good point.
275
So, let's make a short list for our listeners.
276
Okay.
277
For a positive environment.
278
First, keep your desk clean.
279
Second, make sure there is enough light.
280
Third, open a window for fresh air.
281
Fourth, play soft music or sounds if you like.
282
Fifth, study with a friend who is serious.
283
And finally, add small things that make you happy, like plants or photos.
284
That's a great list.
285
And remember, you don't need to do everything at once.
286
Yes, just try one or two ideas.
287
If it works, keep it.
288
If not, try something different.
289
Exactly.
290
The goal is simple.
291
Make your environment a place where you want to study or work.
292
Because if your place feels good, you will feel good.
293
And when you feel good,
294
it's easier to stay motivated.
295
I agree 100%.
296
So listeners, think about your own environment.
297
Is your desk clean?
298
Is there fresh air or light?
299
And do you study with people who help you stay motivated?
300
Try to change one small thing today.
301
Maybe clean your desk or open the window.
302
You'll be surprised.
303
Small changes can make a big difference.
304
So, listeners, what helps you feel motivated?
305
Clean desk, music, light, or something else?
306
Share your answer in the comments.
307
Ben, we already talked about setting small goals,
308
giving yourself rewards, and creating a positive environment.
309
But I think there's one more very important thing for staying motivated.
310
Oh, what is it?
311
It's to always remember your why.
312
Your why?
313
What do you mean?
314
I mean the reason you started.
315
Why are you learning?
316
Why are you working hard?
317
Why are you practicing?
318
Ah, I see.
319
Like your big reason.
320
Exactly.
321
If you forget your reason,
322
you can feel tired or bored.
323
But if you remember your why,
324
it gives you energy again.
325
That makes a lot of sense.
326
For example, if you are learning English,
327
your why might be, I want to travel more easily.
328
Or, I want to talk with my international friends.
329
Or maybe, I want to get a better job.
330
Yes, each person has their own why.
331
And that reason is very powerful.
332
Let me tell a short story.
333
I had a friend who wanted to learn guitar.
334
At first, he practiced every day.
335
But after a few weeks, he got tired.
336
Oh no. Did he stop?
337
Almost.
338
But then he remembered his why.
339
He wanted to play guitar at his sister's wedding.
340
That memory gave him new motivation.
341
That's wonderful.
342
And did he play at the wedding?
343
Yes.
344
He played a beautiful song and his sister cried happy tears.
345
Wow, what a great example.
346
His why helped him finish his goal.
347
Anna, do you have your own why for learning something?
348
Yes, I do.
349
When I was learning Spanish,
350
my why was to travel in Spain and talk to local people.
351
Every time I felt lazy, I remembered my dream.
352
Did it help you?
353
Yes, a lot.
354
I kept thinking, one day I will sit in a cafe in Spain and order food in Spanish.
355
And finally, I did it.
356
That must have felt amazing.
357
It really did.
358
And you, Ben, what is your why for learning English?
359
My why was to watch English movies without subtitles.
360
I love films and I wanted to understand them fully.
361
That dream gave me energy to keep practicing.
362
See, that's the key.
363
If you remember your why,
364
you can continue even when it's hard.
365
Yes, because the journey is not always easy.
366
Sometimes you feel bored.
367
Sometimes you want to give up.
368
But when you stop and think, why did I start?
369
You find new power.
370
Let's make a quick list of possible whys for our listeners.
371
Great idea.
372
Here are some examples.
373
To travel more easily.
374
To get a better job.
375
To talk with friends or family.
376
To pass an exam.
377
To enjoy books, music, or movies.
378
to feel proud and confident yes
379
and remember your why doesn't need to be big even a small reason is okay
380
if it makes you happy I agree
381
and here's a simple tip write down your why on a
382
piece of paper oh that's clever you can put it on your desk
383
or on the wall so when you feel tired you can look at it
384
and remember yes it's like a little voice saying don't stop keep going exactly
385
so listeners think about it what is your why is it to travel to work to talk with family
386
or something else
387
remember when you know your why you can always find motivation again so don't forget it write Write it down,
388
keep it close, and let it give you energy every day.
389
So listeners, what is your why for learning English or working on your goals?

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
