쉐도잉 연습: I Asked 1000 People About Their Biggest Regrets in Life and Learned... - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

Over the last three years, I have asked more than 1 ,000 people of all ages in more than 35 countries one big question about life.

What is a big mistake that you've made or a big regret that you have that you've learned a valuable lesson from?

And their answers have taught me more than any class or course ever could.

Now, in this video, we've compiled all of their answers

and we are sharing the most insightful and emotional ones that you absolutely need to hear.

valuable lesson.

Not telling my mom I loved her as often as I should have.

Yeah, I'd like to be able to go back and do that again.

She died in July.

I was really close to her and she died quickly of dementia.

So, you know, she kind of lost her sense of the people she loved

and the people around her and went downhill very quickly and wasn't pretty.

And it just kind of made me realize that the old cliche about You're here one day and you're gone the next, you better enjoy it while it lasts because it does not last long.

I voluntarily withdrew myself from seeing my mom for a while.

We had an argument and we got back together and it was the best ever.

And then I regretted the time I spent apart from her.

What did you learn about that?

We all make mistakes, we all have difficulties, and sometimes you don't realize what the difficulties of others are.

Until you're older and you start experiencing difficulties yourself, and then you say, "Now I see,

so maybe I should have been kinder." My father passed away in '89, and I wanted to leave comedy because I just...

I just loved entertaining him more than anybody else.

He came to every show.

And my mother is now in late stage dementia, so she doesn't know who I am.

devastating, but up until She did know who I was.

I never I never missed a day of talking to her until she didn't know who was calling.

I was like, "I'm going to die soon." I was 25 years old when my father died,

and I was not a kid.

I always worry about it.

I think I can do business.

I don't know if my father is yet.

I think I'm doing it repeat those things.

They're just great.

There are no bad ones.

I only wish I had more.

They were great experiences.

You're not going to share our channel with your wife, are you?

She doesn't know how to use YouTube, so.

That is a loaded question.

One that I would like to answer, but I'm not going to.

I'm gonna guess the relationship one?

Okay.

We hear that a lot, yeah? didn't know any better.

I invested too much time in a relationship.

I wanted to be married, move forward, etc, etc. You know, if all your friends are telling you that someone is awful,

maybe stop and consider about whether perhaps, you know, they have a point.

But you knew he was bad or it was more the commitment aspect?

Oh, it was more the commitment aspect.

Not bad, but completely wrong and you,

you know, sort of polish up the parts that work.

I think many people don't make that judgment.

They just keep polishing the turd.

I'm not okay with polishing the turd.

I would never get married when I was so young, because what the hell was my hurry?

I was 19.

I had a baby when I was 20.

What was my hurry?

I would have waited, because there are things I wanted to do, which I never did.

I wanted to be a singer.

I always thought I had a voice.

Do you regret not having gone for that?

I mean, a lot of people have these similar dreams.

They don't go for it.

It's done, it's over with, it's finished, you know.

Could have, would have, should have, it's over.

Probably the one thing that I regret was I got married early.

I was working and I didn't spend much time with my children.

I was always busy and my father was always busy.

I never had a relationship with him.

And I guess it came by me naturally and I followed in his footsteps.

I don't have any children.

Do you regret that?

Did you ever regret it?

I did regret it, of course.

I did feel that it's something that I should perhaps have done, but I wasn't cut out for it.

Were kids ever on the table for you?

Is that a regret?

Yeah, it is.

I think when I was much younger for sure, like, oh yeah, one day, one day, one day.

And I always put it off.

And then when I met my wife now, we were both older All these things happen for a reason.

So I don't question them.

I'm not a good person.

I had someone who had someone who had a job, so I didn't know.

I lived in my life only but I was a good one.

But I was really good.

So if you could go back in time and say you were 20, 25 and you could do it over, what would you do differently?

I would say 25.

Clothes, cars, houses.

154

He earned gold.

156

That's all you need.

157

I think one of the best things in failing

158

or going through ups and downs financially is you learn the downs are not that bad.

159

Life still can be good.

160

There's a lot of things you can do.

161

So you realize that whether you have a lot or a little or in the middle, That's not the most important thing.

162

I mean, he grew up extremely poor, hoping to get his next meal.

163

So we know what it's like to

164

Have nothing and have more than nothing follow your dreams and

165

because the passion will get you over the finish line always Always I still want to make money.

166

Okay.

167

That was my job.

168

I was in the finance business.

169

I was there to make money It's not that important.

170

You have to have passion to be good.

171

I lost my passion and if you don't have passion You're not gonna make it.

172

I'm not interested in making the last bucks You have more than you need to survive and take care of your family.

173

That's enough.

174

But just this habit to have it

175

you guys watch our videos trying to get some life advice so that your life can be happier and more fulfilling.

176

But listening to the video is one thing.

177

What do you actually do with it once you turn the video off?

178

We have created over the last few years a series of guided journals and planners and stationary products, all based on the advice you hear on our channel,

179

that genuinely help you take something away and improve your life.

180

Now, our newest product that came out in December is called the Everyday Planner.

181

It's a daily planner that helps you get organized and focus on what matters most.

182

But the big announcement today is for the first time ever, we're actually releasing a product in multiple different colors.

183

So today I introduce to you the Everyday Planner in dark brown.

184

and in pink.

185

If you've been listening to this video, you know how important your environment is.

186

And so we wanted to create different colors that adapt to your own mood and your own environment.

187

So these two are in a limited series batch.

188

If you want to grab one, click the link in the description or scan the QR code on screen to grab yours today.

189

This sounds quite dull actually, but it was taking the wrong job off for the one

190

that had more status than the one actually I really enjoyed that was way more adventurous when I was young.

191

That then I did what I was expected to do, the fancy office all that, rather than the really funky job that I really wanted to do.

192

And that was selling satellite dishes in India.

193

I want to become a stage performer.

194

I never achieved that.

195

I think, yeah, well, I'll keep that in mind.

196

Yeah.

197

How come you never achieved that?

198

What happened?

199

My dad, particularly, was thinking, you know, being a stage performer, you have very short professional time where If you study a skill,

200

you can use until later time.

201

So instead of being a stage performer, you did what?

202

Well, I did accounting.

203

Do you regret that looking back?

204

I always think that will always be part of me.

205

That's an aspiration that will stay with me forever.

206

You never know.

207

You might see me dancing one day on the stage.

208

- You would love to.

209

- For me, my biggest regret was I wanted to be an actor.

210

That was my dream since I was in elementary school.

211

I was in all the school plays, and I had a modicum of success like when I was in my late teens, early 20s.

212

I was on a few TV shows, and I was sort of almost on the cusp of making it.

213

I guess I got scared, and it was like, you know, I need to work, I need to support myself, obviously.

214

I was the quintessential starving artist.

215

I was sleeping on friends' couches.

216

I was bartending.

217

I was a server, whatever, doing what I had to do so I can go on auditions during the day.

218

And I kind of like gave up on that dream and got like the typical corporate nine to five job.

219

And that's my biggest regret in my life, because I was like 20, let's say 22.

220

I should have really kept at it and pursued it, because that's all I've ever wanted to do was be an actor.

221

And now I have some lame corporate job, and it's like, yeah, I can pay my rent and whatever, live.

222

But what is the point at the end of the day?

223

You recognize that time is so short.

224

That's the only one thing that you can't get back.

225

Sort of hyper aware of that now.

226

You know, when you're 22, you think you're going to live forever.

227

I got my whole life ahead of me.

228

No, you have to do it then.

229

try, fail, There's nothing to be ashamed of with failure.

230

Just learn from it and then move on and just try a whole bunch of different things.

231

That would be my biggest advice to a young person.

232

I had a nice job.

233

I was a New York City public school teacher, which many people think is a really terrible job, but I love more or less every minute of it.

234

You have to really love what you do, and if you're not happy what you do, it's the worst miserable kind of thing in the world.

235

You kind of hope and pray that the money will come through that, because of your passion, and you know, your goodwill to the job you're doing.

236

But there is no guarantee.

237

There really isn't any guarantee.

238

I think mine was not feeling confident enough in myself to try something new.

239

I started watercolor painting when I was 50.

240

I should have started it way before that, but I just didn't come up as something I felt like I could do.

241

And I was successful at it.

242

What held you back?

243

You said you weren't confident enough.

244

What was-- I think it was just confidence, just shyness and-- not feeling like I could do it.

245

My father always said, "If you're going to do something, do it right." I interpreted that if you're going to do something, do it perfectly.

246

So if you're not sure you're going to be able to do it perfect, you don't try.

247

That's not true.

248

The big one is, A year from now, you'll wish you started today.

249

I've always worried about the future.

250

I can have enough money.

251

Is it the right moment?

252

Is something else?

253

Should I, you know, take care of some immediate responsibilities, needs?

254

I haven't, for the most part, been somebody who lives in the moment.

255

I still would look more in the future.

256

My wife was very much in the moment, so...

257

I would, uh, I would say you got to strike a balance, right?

258

Because if you're.

259

too much in the moment, you might be screwed in the future.

260

The other extreme, you know, you always living in the future, you miss out on all the opportunities it could have had in the moment in the day.

261

What is a big mistake that you've made or a big regret that you have that you learned a valuable lesson from? So many.

262

Judging people too harshly, too quickly.

263

Judgemental.

264

Not taking risks.

265

You know, sometimes you see a road, you know, I talked about the road you didn't take.

266

And you look at the things that you, the choices you made along the way and you think, oh, was that the road I should have taken?

267

I wanted to be a lawyer, but I had it.

268

A slight speech impediment, I felt that would be a handicap.

269

But I got over the speech problems.

270

Anyway, yeah.

271

It's too late now.

272

It's very hard, very hard for kids today.

273

Get as much education as you can.

274

Just make yourself valuable, but make sure that you're the best that you can be, and then your life will be okay.

275

That's something I wish I had done.

276

Then God knows where I could have been.

277

When I don't do my homework and I play video games.

278

Like he said, sometimes I am on my phone instead of doing my homework.

279

So I lose a lot of time.

280

Spending as much time as I do on my phone, because I feel like I should be doing so much more.

281

And I'm just staying on TikTok for hours while I could be pursuing my passions.

282

One big thing that happened like this year was

283

that I like broke my arm and my hip in like a skiing accident.

284

I was going like way too fast and I was like going off like a massive jump and I just lost control.

285

I would just not do that.

286

Expect less.

287

My motto is don't expect anything from anyone.

288

If you expect less, then you will be much happier.

289

worry less about what others think and what other do.

290

You gotta take risks.

291

You gotta be willing to fail and get up again.

292

There's no such a thing as a bad choice.

293

You always learn something.

294

It's painful to fail.

295

That's why they put erasers on pencils.

296

His life is just one mistake after another.

297

They continue to What did it happen?

298

I don't actually believe in mistakes.

299

I believe in lessons that push you forward.

300

Some people I've known allowed mistakes to actually freeze them in that moment of time, and they could never get out of it.

301

The biggest one I guess I've learned is that to spend more time with people.

302

Pay attention, listen to them.

303

You know, it's easy to keep moving on.

304

and being worried about the river flow, but I think you have to get off once in a while, just enjoy the shore.

305

just enjoy what you're doing, you will be surprised by where you get.

306

And I think life is short and you need moments of contentment when you're not thinking about what you don't have, when you're not thinking about what you don't want,

307

when you're not thinking about what some other person you're seeing or hearing has and you're saying, I want that.

308

I think you need to.

309

You know, my grandmother used to always tell me, if you're not healthy, you're not wealthy.

310

You know, success is just getting up and in the moment, not being aware of a pain, not being aware of what you have, just.

311

And that's, this moment that you're watching right now, is success.

312

Thank you so much for watching this video.

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.
