1
Regret.
2
It's one of our most common emotions, but also one of our most misunderstood.
3
We think that the path to a good life is to ignore our regrets, to always look forward and never look back, to always be positive and never be negative.
4
And that is a mistake.
5
We have a rich body of science telling us that if we approach our regrets in the right way, we can enlist them to work smarter, and live better.
6
In this video, I'm going to show you the four universal regrets that people all over the world have.
7
And I'm going to show you how to learn from them.
8
A few years ago, I created something called the World Regret Project, where I asked people all over the world to share with me one of their big regrets.
9
We now have a database of more than 26 ,000 regrets from people in 134 countries.
10
And what's amazing about these regrets is that around the world, people seem to have the same four core regrets.
11
First category, Foundation regrets.
12
These are small decisions that people make early in life, no single one of which is deadly or cataclysmic, but they'd accumulate to negative consequences later on.
13
Classic example: I spent too much and saved too little, and now I'm broke.
14
Foundation regrets sound like this: If only I'd done the work.
15
Second category: Boldness regrets.
16
You're at a juncture in your life.
17
You have two choices: You can play it safe, or you can take the chance.
18
and overwhelmingly People regret not taking the chance.
19
And it doesn't matter what the domain of life is.
20
It could be asking somebody out on a date.
21
It could be starting a business.
22
It could be traveling.
23
What sticks with us over time are the inactions, the lack of boldness.
24
Boldness regrets sound like this: "If only I'd taken the chance."
25
regret doing the wrong thing because most of us are good
26
and most of us want to be good it could be
27
bullying it could be extramarital affairs it could be lying
28
when we do the wrong thing it sticks with us moral regrets if only i'd done the right thing
29
Final category, connection regrets.
30
These are about relationships and not only about romantic relationships but about the full suite of relationships in our lives.
31
You have a relationship that was intact or should have been intact, but it comes apart.
32
and it often comes apart in deeply undramatic ways.
33
It doesn't explode, It just drifts apart.
34
You want to reach out, but you don't because it's going to be awkward.
35
You want to reach out, but you think the other side's not going to care.
36
So you wait, and the drift widens.
37
Almost always a mistake.
38
Connection regrets sound like this: "If only I'd reached out." So around the world, people have the same four core regrets, foundation regrets.
39
If only I'd done the work.
40
Boldness regrets.
41
If only I'd taken the chance.
42
Moral regrets.
43
If only I'd done the right thing.
44
And connection regrets.
45
If only I'd reached out.
46
These regrets are instructive.
47
And one of the things I learned as a researcher is that when people tell you what they regret the most, they're telling you what they value the most.
48
And these four universal regrets are telling you, telling all of us, what we value in life.
49
They're giving us the path to a good life.
50
Let's go to another area here.
51
What do you do with your regrets?
52
All of us have regrets.
53
How do you turn them into an engine of progress?
54
I have a three -step process for doing that.
55
The three -step process is this.
56
Inward, outward, forward.
57
First step when you have a regret is how you treat yourself.
58
When we make mistakes, when we have screw -ups, when we have regrets, the way we talk to ourselves is cruel.
59
We think that being that mean -spirited toward ourselves is going to improve our performance, and that's not true.
60
So the first step in dealing with a regret is to treat yourself with kindness rather than contempt.
61
Don't treat yourself better than anybody else.
62
but don't treat yourself worse than anybody else.
63
A lot of the times the way we talk to ourselves, we would never talk to anybody else that way.
64
Recognize that your regrets are part of the human condition, and recognize that your regret is a moment in your life not the full measure of your life.
65
Step two: outward.
66
There is a strong argument in the research for writing about your regret, talking about your regret.
67
We fear that if we talk about our regrets with other people, or we talk about our mistakes or setbacks, that people will think less of us.
68
But there's some very good evidence that's wrong, that people often think more of us.
69
They admire our courage, they admire our candor.
70
So that's one reason to talk about your regrets, to write about your regrets.
71
The other reason is that when we express our regrets, it's shoulder.
72
A final reason that this outward expression of regrets is valuable is that negative emotions are blobby, they're amorphous.
73
They sit up there like a vapor.
74
When you write about your regret or talk about your regret, you take this vaporous, abstract thing and you turn it into concrete words that's less menacing.
75
So, final step: forward.
76
How do you use your regret to move forward?
77
You have to be very systematic and explicit about this.
78
Think about your regret and ask yourself these two questions: What lesson is this teaching me
79
and what am I going to do next?
80
Extract a lesson from the regret and then take that lesson and say, what is my next move going to be?
81
When we do that, this negative emotion can be a positive force, because looking backward can move us forward.

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.
