Hello and welcome for this episode at the house.
2
I hope you are well and that you have taken care of you since the last time we got in the ears.
3
The last week there, there was no episode because I had planned to make you a story time episode on my marathon,
4
but it was annuling last minute, the week of the race.
5
So I didn't want to record an episode for you, without really thinking and doing something, and to complete a void.
6
So I thought we would wait for the next week
7
And we are here for an episode on the notion of pleasure
8
And on the fact of losing pleasure in the things that we do in life
9
That's what our passions, relationships, habits, hobbies, objectives that we have
10
Because it's true that I think growing up, I've lost a bit of a flame and an étincell On certain things that I could do,
11
on certain things that I could do
12
I have a lot of put it on the ground and said that somehow we can't always do what we love,
13
that everything can't always be a part of pleasure and
14
that we have to know how to do things even when it's not what we wanted, even if it's not exactly what we wanted.
15
And I think
16
that I have a lot of received this excuse in my head on all these little things of my life, whether it be on my objectives,
17
on my passions, on my relationships, saying that if I don't take pleasure to do that, it's just because it's life and it's like that.
18
I think there is much more behind and
19
that it is much easier to say that it is just
20
because we grow
21
and we take less pleasure to do all these things rather than there is a real reason behind
22
and that it is between our hands and our actions daily
23
and the way we talk and how we manage certain things
24
that has direct impact on the pleasure that we can take
25
and it is true
26
that recently I have been asked a lot of questions about the pleasure in everything
27
that I've been in my career in my goals, in my relationships, etc. In terms of what I've learned in my life,
28
I don't think I'm never considered a perfectionist.
29
In the contrary, I'm the last to have an attention to detail.
30
I'm the least perfectionist who exists.
31
But one of my biggest mistakes, I think that I have a lot of expectations towards myself.
32
I always expect to have some results, I always expect to achieve some things in a certain way.
33
And I think that these expectations towards myself are sometimes very beneficial
34
because they have allowed me to do excellent things in my life
35
and to achieve incredible goals and to achieve things that make me happy and which are super cool for me.
36
But I think there are also moments where these expectations
37
that I put on my shoulders and that I feel are the center of many things that I do,
38
I can't take this pleasure in things that I take into my life, in my habits, in my passions, in my career, in my relationships.
39
When we have a lot of expectations in ourselves and we can't always fill them all the time,
40
even if we wait for ourselves to always respond to these things that we have in mind,
41
It's a vicious circle of eternal satisfaction because it doesn't stop.
42
Once you've reached some expectations, you have others who are going to place.
43
And in fact, these expectations, for me, have taken a lot of place, and I think there's a lot of place,
44
I think, in what I do in my life and what I do in my life.
45
And I've been asked this question in the moment, to ask if it's not my fault, if I don't have too much expectations in my life.
46
I was talking about an article on Substack, which was talking about this notion of pleasure.
47
A woman, I don't know her name, but she mentioned the writings and research of Natalie Goldberg.
48
And she called it
49
What is keeping us from pleasure?
50
What is what retient us to take pleasure?
51
It's an anagramme of pleasure.
52
P -L -E -A -S -U -R -E Each letter of pleasure is related to a notion
53
that retains us to take pleasure in our lives.
54
Whether in our work, in our hobbies, in our relationships, in our habits,
55
in all these things what is what really retient us at the prise of pleasure
56
and the fact of to aim and to take pleasure at what we do.
57
The first thing that we retient in life to take pleasure is obviously for the P, the perfectionism.
58
And she calls it, I need to be brilliant all the time, dès que I do something.
59
This is obviously impossible.
60
We never would expect someone in front of us to be 100 % perfect
61
and brilliant at each thing he or she entreprend.
62
And the perfectionism, I think it's natural that we want to do the things the most perfectly possible.
63
In fact, I think I think today we have
64
so much access to success and perfection through everything we consume
65
and clicking on a button and out a thing from our pocket each minute of the day,
66
each second of the day that we wait to arrive at this level of perfectionism.
67
But I think it's quite logical
68
that perfectionism comes completely against pleasure in the actions of life
69
because it takes a lot of place because
70
when we want to be perfect it's going to eat
71
and it makes us forget everything else we just want to do everything to perfection.
72
But the problem with perfectionism is that it empires everything to do completely natural and logical.
73
It is to say that to grow in a relationship, to improve in any hobby, to evolve in your work,
74
in your knowledge, etc. You have to learn, and to learn, you have to repeat,
75
you have to fail, you have to learn from what we do of what we do well, we have to know.
76
to not be perfect for just to improve or to learn more.
77
And I think that sometimes even if I lack a bit of perfectionism in what I do in my life,
78
I'm still happy to not be blocked by doing things that I like, just because I know that I'm not perfect at what I do.
79
And where it comes from with the notion of pleasure, it's that there are maybe a lot of things we want to do,
80
like dance, dance, theater, whatever, maybe artistic thing we want to test, but we say that I'm not brilliant and I'm not brilliant until I start,
81
so I don't want to do it because I know I'm null.
82
And this notion of perfectionism
83
and this research of perfectionism in each aspect of our lives can prevent us from doing things
84
that could potentially bring a lot of pleasure.
85
Then, for the second letter, the L, it talks about legitimacy.
86
It explains it as, I'm not this person.
87
At first I didn't understand what she wanted to say, but when we think about it,
88
let's take an example of someone who wants to go into a sport, who would like to go in a jump course,
89
and who would like to go in a semi -marathon, but this person has this problem of legitimacy where she says I'm not a sportsman,
90
I'm not a sportsman, I can't do that I don't know who I am
91
and I think that I had a lot of
92
that at the time but I didn't have been a sportsman or I didn't have been a sportsman I can't do that,
93
I don't know, it's not me I was told that we're all out of a mom we're all out of someone
94
everyone is becoming someone everyone is becoming who he is everyone
95
in growing is becoming a mosaics of everything who he is going to happen,
96
a mosaics of all the people he has met a mosaïque of all the things that he interested, all the things that he decided to work,
97
to push, on which he decided to grow, to educate.
98
Maybe today we are not exactly these people who think are legitimate to do things, because we have given an ideal and we think
99
that everyone who does this thing has this type of character
100
or this type of habit in his life and that we don't.
101
But in reality, everyone can become who they want to become.
102
And the big problem today is that we really put people in categories, So when you look at any industry or even sport,
103
when you look at the people who have been riding a marathon semi -marathon, no one has the same story.
104
Maybe there are many people who have a little bit of predisposition
105
and who have been doing a lot of athletes for a long time, but most people have a completely different story.
106
Most people have started differently, at different times of their lives, for different reasons.
107
There is no status quo, no way, no type, no profile of the type, everyone can do that and it's too much to put barriers like
108
that and I'm the first to say I'm not an writer, I'm not an actress, I can't write books,
109
I can say that, while in reality there are already so many things in our life, in our civilization that prevent us from doing things,
110
that make us access to things more difficult.
111
Why would we come to put the buttons in the chair while there are already so many buttons exist.
112
We are legitimate to test everything in our lives, we have all our place here,
113
we have all the right to test what we want to test.
114
And I don't know, I read this article in my mind,
115
it made me realize how to legitimize it takes place in this equation of action and pleasure.
116
And it really gave me to be aware of how I speak, how I see, and what I say,
117
and to really try to see and understand where I feel like I'm missing from legitimize.
118
To remember that it's not the case, that I have my life in my hands, that I have my personal life in my hands,
119
that I have my I have my daily life in my hands
120
and that I have the capacity to model my life
121
and to reconstruct this mosaic that I have completed and made that I am today.
122
And I thought it was important to share it with you through this episode.
123
The third point, the E, the pleasure, because it's the word in English, it's not the word in French.
124
It talks about exhaustion, so that's how I feel.
125
It reminds me of another quote that I love, which is you can never do it with someone who can enjoy it.
126
When we do something to do something until we get to no longer power, we have pushed the ball too far.
127
I'm going to go back to the course to pieds, but it's like when you say you want to prepare a marathon
128
and you're at your third month of preparation and you don't even know what you're at, you're all given.
129
And sometimes when you go too far, you lose this notion of pleasure because you're feeling to force it, because it's the case, and
130
because there's a sense of courage of exhaustion really takes a lot of place at this moment in our lives.
131
And it's very difficult sometimes to find this balance between doing what we love, but not doing too much, but not doing too much.
132
Because sometimes I feel that when I try to listen and really slow on certain things,
133
I feel that I lose the line and then I don't want to be as good as certain things, because I'm a bit content.
134
and that I feel like I don't need to leave because if I leave,
135
I will lose the film and I can be as well as it is.
136
And again, my waiting is sometimes a bit of perfectionism, in fact, but it's very complicated, I think, to find this balance,
137
especially when we talk about business, passion, etc. You can be a photographer and be too happy that doing the photo is your job and,
138
therefore, you want to and accept all things, and at the end, and not sleep, and be exhausted of what you do,
139
and so lose the notion of pleasure, it's super hard.
140
And I think it's inevitable to fall on top of it at a moment.
141
It's inevitable, sometimes, when you do something that you like, to want to do too much,
142
and so to get exhausted and to lose the notion of pleasure.
143
And I think that, in fact, it's a balance balance where you have to remove weight from one side, add another, find a balance.
144
It's really personal to each other.
145
There's not one person.
146
I think we can't do a copy -and - paste on how other people manage their sports, their hobbies, their past -temps, their job, their relationship.
147
There's no copy -and -coller possible because we have all different characters, we have all different receptors, different ways to feel different,
148
different pleasure, we're all completely different on that.
149
And I think it's really important to sometimes be able to
150
break a little bit to understand where we are going too far and how we can find this balance between
151
and not to do enough enough for not to get tired because this notion of disappointment comes to ruin the pleasure.
152
And I think that sometimes it's the thing that really comes to gâchers the pleasure.
153
And once we realize that it's just that we're doing too much and that it's removed the pleasure,
154
it allows us to slow down a little bit and so to find the pleasure.
155
And that's what happened recently when I prepared the marathon which was just annuling, which I talked about in the beginning of the episode.
156
I was going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
157
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
158
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
159
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
160
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
161
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
162
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
163
I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all, I'm going to do it at all,
164
I'm going to do it at to remove the pressure,
165
remove the things I had put in my time job through this desire to prepare me correctly and intensively
166
and to find out, thanks to this soulagement of intensity and this soulagement of this exhaustion that I had felt, a huge pleasure and today,
167
every day, I'm going to run for me,
168
it's a pure pleasure it's a pure pleasure and I'm so happy to have removed this exhaustion and this challenge in trop,
169
this weight that I put on my shoulders because it allowed me to find this pleasure
170
Then in What is keeping us from pleasure, the letter is the A.
171
It talks about avoidance, the fact of avoiding things.
172
Sometimes we know very well that things will be good, will make us happy, will be sincerely and purely good,
173
mechanically, chemically in our brain, but we find a way to do something and avoid this thing.
174
The type of example that comes in my mind, For example, we know that there is a book that we love too much,
175
that we want to read, that there is a book that we want to go on, that we want to go on,
176
that we want to go on, that we want to go on, that we want to go on, that we want to go on,
177
that we want to go on, that we want to go on.
178
But we want to take the solution to facilitate, to avoid that with, for example, our phone or other things.
179
I would say that it is sometimes unconscious, but it is purely, I think, unconscious.
180
And this is what I mean by my episode on dopamine,
181
which I can only recommend you to listen if you haven't listened is that today our brain is,
182
with the networks, but also with the instantanity of life in general, we all attend very instantaneously,
183
and so things that are sometimes natural or can do good for us, like for example, cooking a long dish,
184
going to do sports, reading a book, it seems a lot too complicated to our brain
185
because it gives us a pleasure which is too far compared to an instantanity, which is promised at the second level,
186
It's to say that to look at a real real,
187
it will give all of the dopamine to our brain compared to reading three chapters of a book, where it's in several pages,
188
several minutes, or at the end of the lecture, we will take a lot of dopamine.
189
I think that it's really a work to do very long, to realize what I'm trying to do in my life,
190
why I'm trying to avoid it, and to try to arrange it.
191
I think that it really requires a lot of conscience, a lot of introspection what I wanted to say is it's
192
good to be a little to try to understand where it comes
193
and what are those things that we avoid a little bit in our lives.
194
Next, what's that brings us to pleasure ?
195
We go to the S, she calls it the should, so the right.
196
I should be working on something serious.
197
I should work on something serious.
198
It's like that she describes it.
199
And I think that's the real thing, really, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I think of the life of many people in general,
200
it's that we don't want to do things
201
that we would like to do because we think
202
that there are other things we should do in the place that are more serious or better seen in the society.
203
In fact, I think we are so addicted to productivity today in our society
204
that as soon as there is something that doesn't look productive but that will make us a lot of pleasure,
205
we say that we shouldn't do it because there are things we could do more productive.
206
It's like saying that I have too much to draw, that I have too much to draw this night,
207
that I want to throw a piece of art for 3 hours on my stuff, but no, in fact, I should wash my linge,
208
I should work at home on my table, I should do this, I should do that.
209
It's more acceptable in terms of productivity in our society, because we have the impression that everything we have, in the 24 hours of our day,
210
should be provided to productivity and to things that are productive.
211
but I can't describe at which point in my life
212
these moments where I relapse from these things that I should do something
213
and that I accept to take my time to do nothing
214
or to do something that is not at all productive or
215
that have nothing to do with productivity are just the moments where I get the most,
216
where I feel the best in my life are the moments where I am the most happy
217
and where I am the most and it's not even for giving a reason to
218
that I'm not even trying to tell you
219
that you don't have to be productive because it's just that it's that you accord productivité.
220
Non, ce n 'est pas du tout ce que je suis en train d 'essayer de dire.
221
Justement, genre, ça se trouve ça va pas du tout vous apporter de la productivité, mais si ça vous apporte du plaisir,
222
putain mais en fait c 'est normal.
223
Genre, on devrait tous pouvoir prendre du plaisir dans notre vie
224
sans culpabiliser pour avoir pris une demi -heure pour regarder un épisode Netflix.
225
Il y a plein de choses qui pourraient nous rendre tellement
226
heureux dans nos vies mais qu 'on s 'empêche de faire
227
juste parce qu 'on a l 'impression que c 'est pas
228
productif et que ça va pas nous apporter quelque chose dans notre vie.
229
Genre, c 'est pas parce que tu vas pas vendre les bonnets que tu fais quand tu tricotes, que tu peux pas te mettre au tricot.
230
Genre, c 'est pas parce que tu
231
You can't sell your drawings or create a side hustle or create an Instagram account of your drawings that you can't design.
232
It's not because you don't want to play in a theater theater
233
or pass a casting for a pub that you can't just do theater or learn text.
234
We're not obligated to monetize or hustle -ish, for a little bit of an English, to put productivity in everything we do.
235
And I think that really, it's a flail in my life and in the lives of many people I think today.
236
It's this need to be productive when we think about it, the dimanche has just been created like the day of the Lord,
237
and I don't even put religion in it or what, it doesn't matter your religion, it doesn't matter what you believe or not in the God,
238
the dimanche is supposed to be sacred, like nothing to do, and we managed to have the impression that we have to give absolutely everything,
239
that we just have to do every second of our time, to make productive money and stuff,
240
but no, not really, and I think I'm the first who should work on it.
241
I'm so part of these people who do not work on it, not to want to optimize and to productize it, even if it's a term,
242
I don't know it's not a term.
243
I have the right and we have the right to do things for pure pleasure, for no desire to do what else to do.
244
And it should be okay and we should not want to want it
245
because I think that just to want it is a vicious circle which makes it even worse.
246
The next one, the U of pleasure, she called it the unworthiness, So the fact that we don't deserve something.
247
I don't deserve something.
248
I think it's a lot of reference to the syndrome of the impostor.
249
We don't take pleasure to certain things when we feel like we don't have enough work to do it.
250
And I think it's a lot of this notion of productivity that I mentioned before.
251
And even of legitimacy that I mentioned before is
252
that we have put in the context of the types of people who do or who do what we want.
253
And I think
254
that sometimes this syndrome of the imposter can take a lot of place in the pleasure
255
because when you have the impression of having less worked or having less deserved something, you have the impression of being,
256
excuse my term, but being a bastard of appreciating something
257
because we don't deserve it and
258
because there are people who need to work a lot or because there are people who don't have it, so we don't have it,
259
etc. I think that it's really something on which we can work and maybe a little more niche, maybe not many people feel that.
260
It's super hard to know who deserves and who doesn't deserve, because it's super subjective.
261
And it's not because there's someone who works a little less, but who doesn't deserve it,
262
maybe she works differently, maybe there's other things that happened, we can't know.
263
And it's not because we're not exactly in a persona that we don't deserve these things in our lives, just simply.
264
And I find it so sad to say, I don't deserve this thing that makes me happy and makes me happy.
265
I don't say that to someone I love.
266
I never say to my partner, you don't deserve this thing, you don't deserve this thing, you don't deserve this thing, you don't deserve this thing,
267
you don't deserve this thing, you don't deserve this thing, you don't deserve this thing.
268
You don't deserve this thing.
269
You don't deserve this thing.
270
I never say that to someone I love, I never say that to a friend, I never say that to someone you don't deserve this thing.
271
So you won't be happy because you don't deserve it.
272
It's a lie to say that you don't deserve something that will make you happy.
273
Everyone deserves to be happy.
274
The last letter, the R of pleasure is rules.
275
It has to.
276
Sometimes we don't take pleasure to do things because we have the impression
277
that we need to go perfectly in a hole or that we need to do exactly the same way.
278
And it's sometimes related to perfectionism.
279
It's to say, for example, if you want to launch into the content creation, imagine.
280
And you say, yes, but people do this, they post like that, they talk like that, they talk like that, they do this kind of videos.
281
I have to do that.
282
because you will just copy what exists, you will just not do anything at all, you will just do things because you need to do things,
283
and you will just do things like that because it's like that it's done and that it's...
284
It's absolutely necessary that I do this phrase at the beginning, or that I say it like that, or that I put this music,
285
that it's like that it works and that I do post
286
so frequently and that I do put such videos or such photos,
287
or that I do put such stories because it's like that it's done and that everyone does things like that.
288
You will just not take pleasure.
289
We must follow rules in our lives, in our daily lives, in how we talk to people, how we are in the street,
290
our staff etc. There are rules to follow, in life it's like that.
291
So why are we, in things where we don't need rules, where we can remove rules, we don't do it?
292
Why do we not just leave ourselves completely free of how we do things, how we say things, how we present things,
293
our creativity, our spirit, our knowledge, our hands, our actions? why would we not leave this possibility of discovering?
294
Because I think that all the things
295
that I have brought the most pleasure in my life are things that I have left to discover, that I have left to imagine,
296
that I have left to create, and that are coming from me,
297
from my deepest, and that have been sincere and authentic in my life and in my creation.
298
And I think that the times where I was a bit affrontée, I don't know if I can say it like that,
299
affranchie, that's what I want to say, where I was affranchised of the rules and of what I thought of being the way to do things,
300
were the times where I was the most happy, because I left myself being myself and I left myself discovering things.
301
And finally, last letter, it's the E, external audience, the external audience.
302
She called it what people will think.
303
So what people will think.
304
And I think there is nothing more human than to stop doing
305
or not doing things because we think too much about the eyes of others and what people will think about us.
306
When we grow up, we don't stop talking about certain passions we have
307
because we have fear that people will judge who we are, because we have fear that people will see who we are,
308
because we have fear that people will see who we are, or say something or think something because we have fear that they are wrong seen,
309
wrong perceived, wrong interpreted, or that we have fear of following some dreams or will just
310
because we have the impression that it will appear to some way to other people.
311
In this external audience, there is really the way to think about what the others will think,
312
but also the way to think about how to do it well because there are people who will look.
313
And the two me make so much worse because at the end of the day,
314
there is only that we are going to spend our lives with us.
315
I don't want to live my life for someone else.
316
I want to live a life that corresponds to someone else, for someone else, in the regard of someone else.
317
It's a terroristic thing to say that I could
318
or could make things happen because I have taken too into someone else in my life or an audience of external viewers.
319
I think it's super human to control what people think of us through our actions and how we can be in sport,
320
etc. It's completely human and I think it's normal.
321
But it doesn't not have to prevent us from doing things that make us happy and prevent us from doing pleasure.
322
I think when we feel pleasure in a hobby, in a relationship, in a job, in whatever whatever we do in our lives,
323
we shouldn't try to find other reasons to do it.
324
To take pleasure should be enough to continue to do something.
325
We shouldn't look further.
326
In any case, I hope this episode you enjoyed, I hope it talks about it as it has been mentioned,
327
I hope you learned something as I learned as much as I learned through this article and this thought of Natalie Goldberg.
328
I love you very much, and I say to you next week!
329
Bye!

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
