31
All right, so today's episode is all about mindset.
32
We're going to practice two real -life situations.
33
First, talking to a friend who's struggling with negative thinking, and second, sharing your goals and positive mindset with a language partner.
34
Both conversations will teach you how to express your thoughts, encourage others, and talk about personal growth in English.
35
Sound good?
36
Sounds perfect.
37
I'm ready.
38
Great.
39
Let's start learning.
40
Okay, Fizu, let me ask you something personal.
41
When you wake up in the morning, what's the first thought that comes to your mind?
42
To be honest, usually I'm thinking, oh no, another day of work.
43
You're being honest, and I love that.
44
But let me ask you, how does that thought make you feel?
45
Um, it make me feel tired already.
46
Right, I can imagine.
47
But let me help you with that sentence real quick.
48
Instead of it make me feel, we say it makes me feel with an S at the end.
49
Can you try that?
50
Oh, it makes me feel tired already.
51
Perfect, you got it.
52
Now, here's the thing about mindset.
53
That first thought in the morning, that's your mindset starting to work.
54
If your first thought is negative, like, oh no, another day of work, your brain starts preparing for a bad day.
55
But if you change that thought to something positive, like today is a new opportunity, your brain prepares for a good day instead.
56
Really?
57
Just changing one thought can do that?
58
Yes, it sounds simple to work, but it's incredibly powerful.
59
Let me give you an example.
60
Imagine two students learning English.
61
Student A thinks, English is so hard, I'll never be fluent.
62
Student B thinks, English is challenging, but I'm getting better every day.
63
Who do you think will improve faster?
64
Um, I think student B.
65
Exactly, because student B has a growth mindset.
66
They believe they can improve.
67
Student A has a fixed mindset.
68
They believe they can't change.
69
See the difference?
70
Yes, so mindset is really important for learning English.
71
It's important for everything.
72
Learning English, your job, your relationships, your health, everything.
73
That's why we're talking about it today.
74
Now let me teach you some useful phrases for talking about mindset.
75
First one, I have a positive mindset.
76
This means you think positively about life.
77
Can you say that?
78
I have a positive mindset.
79
Good.
80
Now try this one.
81
I'm working on changing my mindset.
82
This means you're trying to think differently i'm working on changing
83
my mindset excellent here's another useful one your mindset affects your
84
success this means the way you think influences your results try
85
it your mindset affects your success perfect see fisu you're already
86
learning how to talk about mindset in english now let me ask you do you think you have a positive
87
or negative mindset most of the time?
88
I think sometimes positive, sometimes negative.
89
It depends on the day.
90
That's very honest.
91
And actually, that's normal for most people.
92
But here's what I want you to understand.
93
You can train your mindset.
94
Just like you train your body at the gym, you can train your mind to think more positively.
95
Want to know how?
96
Yes.
97
How I can do that.
98
Good question.
99
But let me fix that sentence quickly.
100
Instead of how I can do that, we say how can I do that.
101
We flip the order.
102
Try it.
103
How can I do that?
104
Perfect.
105
So here's how.
106
Every morning when you wake up, say three positive things out loud.
107
For example, today will be a good day.
108
I'm grateful for my health.
109
I'm improving my English every day.
110
Just three simple sentences.
111
If you do this every morning for one month, your mindset will completely change.
112
Really?
113
Just three sentences?
114
Yes.
115
It sounds too simple to work, but trust me, it's incredibly powerful.
116
You're literally training your brain to think positively.
117
And you know what the best part is?
118
It only takes 30 seconds.
119
That's amazing.
120
I'm going to try this tomorrow morning.
121
I love that.
122
That's already a positive mindset right there.
123
You're willing to try something new.
124
Now let's practice a longer conversation about mindset.
125
All right, Fizu, let's talk about something really important, the connection between mindset and success.
126
Have you ever noticed that some people seem to succeed at everything they try, while other people always struggle?
127
Yes, I always wondering about that.
128
Some people is so lucky.
129
Ah, good observation.
130
But let me help with the grammar.
131
Instead of I always wondering, we say I always wonder, present tense.
132
And instead of some people is, we say some people are.
133
Try again.
134
I always wonder about that that.
135
Some people are so lucky.
136
Perfect.
137
Now here's the interesting thing.
138
It's usually not about luck.
139
It's about mindset.
140
Let me tell you a story.
141
I had two students last year.
142
Both wanted to become fluent in English.
143
Both had the same classes, the same materials, the same opportunities.
144
Student number one, let's call him Mark, always said things like, I'm terrible at English, and I can't remember vocabulary, and I'm too old to learn.
145
What do you think happened to Mark?
146
Um, he didn't improve.
147
Exactly right.
148
He gave up after three months.
149
Now, student number two, let's call her Lisa, said things like, I'm getting better every day, and mistakes help me learn,
150
and I can do this if I practice.
151
What do you think happened to Lisa?
152
She become fluent.
153
Almost.
154
We say she became fluent, past tense.
155
Can you try that?
156
She became fluent.
157
Yes, exactly.
158
After one year, Lisa was speaking English confidently.
159
Same teacher, same materials, but completely different mindset.
160
Lisa had what we call a growth mindset.
161
She believed she could improve.
162
Mark had a fixed mindset.
163
He believed he couldn't change.
164
See the difference?
165
Yes.
166
So growth mindset is good, and fixed mindset is bad exactly a growth mindset means you believe you can improve through effort
167
and practice a fixed mindset means you believe your abilities are set
168
and can't change and here's the amazing truth everyone can develop a growth mindset it's a choice
169
so I can choose to have growth mindset yes
170
and actually you just need to add a before growth mindset
171
try I can choose to have a growth mindset I can choose to have a growth mindset perfect
172
and you know what you're already showing a growth mindset right now every time i correct your english
173
and you try again that's growth mindset you're not giving up you're learning that's beautiful thank you masu
174
that makes me feel good you should feel good now let me teach you some powerful mindset phrases that successful people use.
175
Ready?
176
Yes.
177
Okay.
178
First phrase, I can learn anything if I practice enough.
179
This shows growth mindset.
180
Can you say that?
181
I can learn anything if I practice enough.
182
Great.
183
Next one, challenges help me grow.
184
This means you see difficult situations as opportunities to improve.
185
Challenges help me grow.
186
Excellent.
187
Here's another, I'm not good at this yet, but I will be.
188
Notice the word yet.
189
It means you're still learning.
190
It's very powerful.
191
I'm not good at this yet, but I will be.
192
Perfect.
193
Now, Fizu, let me ask you something.
194
When you make a mistake in English, how do you feel?
195
Sometimes I feel embarrassed.
196
Sometimes I feel like I'm stupid.
197
Okay, I really appreciate your honesty, but let me tell you something important.
198
Making mistakes doesn't mean you're stupid.
199
It means you're learning.
200
Every mistake is your brain trying to understand something new.
201
So instead of thinking, I'm stupid, what if you thought, I'm learning?
202
How would that feel different?
203
Hmm.
204
I think it would feel better.
205
Less, um, less pressure.
206
Exactly.
207
Less pressure, more freedom to try.
208
And that's what mindset does.
209
It changes how you interpret situations.
210
Same situation, different interpretation, completely different feeling.
211
That's the power of mindset.
212
Wow.
213
I never thought about it like that before.
214
I know, right?
215
It's amazing once you understand it.
216
Now, let's practice these ideas in real conversations.
217
We're going to do two role -play situations where you'll talk about mindset in English.
218
Ready?
219
Yes, I'm ready.
220
All right, here's our first situation.
221
Imagine you have a friend named Alex.
222
Alex is trying to learn a new skill, maybe playing guitar, maybe learning to cook.
223
It doesn't matter.
224
But Alex is really struggling and feeling negative about it.
225
You meet Alex at a cafe, and Alex is feeling discouraged.
226
I'll be Alex, and you'll be yourself, trying to encourage your friend and help them change their mindset.
227
Ready?
228
Okay, I'm ready.
229
But I'm a little nervous.
230
Don't worry, you'll do great.
231
Remember, it's just practice.
232
All right, here we go.
233
I'm Alex, sitting at the cafe with my coffee, looking sad.
234
Hey, Fizu.
235
Thanks for meeting me.
236
I really needed to talk to someone.
237
Hey, Alex.
238
What's wrong?
239
You look sad.
240
Good.
241
Start.
242
Very natural.
243
Keep going.
244
I'm just...
245
I'm so frustrated.
246
I've been trying to learn guitar for three months now, and I'm still terrible.
247
I can't even play a simple song.
248
I think I should just give up.
249
Oh, no. Don't give up.
250
Um, maybe you just need more practice.
251
Good.
252
That's encouraging.
253
Keep going.
254
But I've been practicing every day.
255
Other people learn so much faster than me.
256
I think I just don't have talent for music.
257
Hmm.
258
Alex, I think you have, um, you have a fixed mindset about this.
259
Oh, great job using that vocabulary.
260
Keep going.
261
A fixed mindset?
262
What do you mean?
263
It means, um, you think you can't improve, but actually everyone can improve if they practice.
264
You need to have a growth mindset.
265
Almost perfect.
266
Just say a growth mindset with a before it, but excellent explanation.
267
You need to have a growth mindset. But how?
268
I feel like I'm just not good at this.
269
Alex, you say you are terrible at guitar, but maybe you should say, I'm not good at guitar yet, but I will be.
270
The word yet is very important.
271
Wow, Fizu, that's exactly what I taught you, and you're using it perfectly.
272
Great job.
273
Hmm, I'm not good yet, but I will be.
274
I guess that sounds better.
275
But what if I never get better?
276
Alex, you will get better.
277
Three months is not a very long time.
278
Maybe you need to change how you're thinking about mistakes.
279
Good.
280
Just small fix.
281
Not a very long time and how you think about mistakes.
282
Try that part again.
283
Three months is not a very long time.
284
Maybe you need to change how you think about mistakes.
285
What do you mean?
286
When you make mistakes with the guitar, don't think, I'm terrible.
287
Think, I'm learning.
288
Every mistake helps you grow.
289
That's growth mindset.
290
Excellent advice, Vizu.
291
I'm so proud of you.
292
You know what?
293
You're right.
294
I've been so negative about this.
295
Maybe I need to change my attitude.
296
Yes, and Alex, can I tell you something?
297
You said you practice every day.
298
That's amazing.
299
That shows you really want to learn.
300
You just need to be patient with yourself.
301
You're right.
302
I do want to learn.
303
I guess I've just been too hard on myself.
304
Yes.
305
So tomorrow when you practice guitar, say to yourself, I can learn this if I practice.
306
Every day I'm getting better.
307
Can you try that?
308
Okay.
309
I can learn this if I practice.
310
Every day I'm getting better.
311
Yeah, I can do that.
312
Good.
313
And remember, challenges help you grow.
314
Perfect, Fizu.
315
That was wonderful.
316
Okay, I'm stepping out of character now.
317
Wow, that was really impressive.
318
You used so many of the phrases we learned, and you genuinely encouraged Alex.
319
How do you feel?
320
I feel good.
321
It was actually easier than I thought.
322
That's because you understood the concept.
323
You didn't just memorize words, you understood the meaning of growth mindset.
324
That's real learning.
325
Now, let me highlight the most important phrases from the situation
326
key phrases don't give up encouraging someone to keep trying you
327
have a fixed mindset identifying the problem you need to have a growth mindset, suggesting the solution.
328
I'm not good yet, but I will be, using yet to show growth.
329
Every mistake helps you grow, positive perspective on mistakes.
330
Challenges help you grow, seeing difficulties as opportunities.
331
These six phrases are incredibly powerful for encouraging yourself and others.
332
Great job, Vizu.
333
Now let's try our second situation.
334
Okay, I'm ready.
335
Alright, here's situation number two.
336
Imagine you joined an online language exchange group.
337
You're meeting your new language partner for the first time on a video call.
338
You want to introduce yourself, talk about your English learning goals, and share your positive mindset about learning.
339
I'll be your language partner, Sarah.
340
You're yourself, Fizu.
341
This is your chance to practice talking about your goals and mindset in a positive way.
342
Ready?
343
Okay.
344
Yes, I'm ready.
345
Great.
346
Imagine the video call just connected.

350
I'm Sarah.
351

352
Nice to meet you, too.
353
I'm very excited for our language exchange.
354
Wonderful.
355
Natural and friendly.
356
Keep going.
357
Me, too.
358
So, tell me about yourself.
359
Why are you learning English?
360
Well, I'm learning English because I want to communicate with people from different countries.
361
I think English is very useful for my career also.
362
That's great.
363
How long have you been studying English?
364
I have been studying for about two years now.
365
Perfect grammar.
366
I have been studying for about two years.
367
Keep going.
368
Wow, two years.
369
That's wonderful.
370
How do you feel about your progress?
371
Honestly, at first I was very frustrated i made many mistakes
372

373

375
and it changed everything for me now i believe i can improve
376
if i practice every day oh growth mindset I love that.
377
Can you explain what that means to you?
378
Yes.
379
Growth mindset means I believe I can learn anything if I work hard.
380
It's different from fixed mindset, which means you think you can't change.
381
With growth mindset, I see challenges as opportunities to grow, not as problems.
382
Excellent explanation, Fizu.
383
Perfect English, perfect understanding.
384
I'm so proud.
385
Wow, that's such a positive way to think.
386
So what are your goals for improving your English?
387
My goals are to speak more fluently and to feel more confident when I talk with native speakers.
388
I also want to stop translating in my head.
389
I want to think in English directly.
390
Those are great goals.
391
And what's your plan to achieve them?
392
My plan is to practice speaking every day, even if just for 15 minutes.
393
I also watch English videos and I try to speak out loud when I practice.
394
And most important, I remind myself every day, I'm not perfect yet, but I'm getting better.
395
Beautiful, Fizu.
396
Perfect use of yet.
397
Keep going.
398
I love your positive attitude.
399
It's so inspiring.
400
Do you have any advice for other English learners who feel discouraged?
401
Yes, I would say don't compare yourself to other people.
402
Everyone learns at different speed.
403
Just focus on your own progress, and remember, every mistake you make is helping you learn.
404
Don't be afraid of mistakes.
405
That's wonderful advice.
406
You know what, Fizu?

424
I feel really good.
425

426
It felt natural to talk about my goals like that.
427
That's because you weren't just speaking English.

All right, Fizu, quiz time.
581
I'm going to ask you three questions about mindset.
582
Ready?
583
I'm ready.
584
A little nervous, but ready.
585
Don't be nervous.
586
This is just practice.
587
Okay, question number one.
588
What's the difference between growth mindset and fixed mindset?
589
Growth mindset is when you think you can't change.
590
Ooh, not quite.
591
That's actually fixed mindset.
592
Let me explain.
593
Fixed mindset is when you think you can't change, Like, I'm bad at English, and I'll always be bad.
594
Growth mindset is when you believe you can change and improve through practice.
595
Like, I'm not good yet, but I can get better.
596
Does that make sense?
597
Oh, yes, I mixed them up.
598
So growth mindset means you can improve.
599
Fixed mindset means you can't change.
600
Perfect.
601
You got it now.
602
Excellent.
603
Question number two.
604
Why is the word yet so powerful when talking about mindset?
605
Because yet means you will improve in the future.
606
Yes, exactly right.
607
When you say, I'm not good yet, the word yet shows you believe you will be good in the future.
608
It shows growth mindset.
609
Great answer, Fizu.
610
Last question.
611
What should you think when you make a mistake?
612
Um, I should think, I'm terrible.
613
No, no. That's fixed mindset thinking.
614
With growth mindset, when you make a mistake, you should think, this mistake is helping me learn, or I'm learning and growing.
615
Mistakes are good.
616
They show you're trying.
617
Can you say that?
618
Oh, yes.
619
When I make a mistake, I should think, this mistake is helping me learn.
620
Perfect.
621
You got it.
622
And you know what?
623
You just proved it.
624
You made a mistake on question one, but then you learned and got the next ones right.
625
That's growth mindset in action.
626
You're right.
627
I did improve.
628
That feels good.
629
All right, everyone.
630
Before we finish, I want to give you three practical tips about mindset and learning English.
631
Okay.
632
I'm ready to learn.
633
It's very reasonably priced.
634
A full meal with an appetizer, main course and dessert is usually around $25 to $35 per person.
635
I love it.
636
I actually started doing this after our morning motivation episode.
637
It really helps me feel better.
638
That's wonderful.
639
See, it works.
640
Tip number two, replace I can't with i can't yet whenever you want to
641
say i can't speak english well add the word yet at the end i can't speak english well yet
642
that tiny word changes your entire mindset from fixed to growth will you try
643
that fisu yes i will say i can't yet instead of just i can't that's really smart exactly
644
and tip number three celebrate your mistakes I know this sounds crazy
645
but every time you make a mistake in English smile
646
and say good I'm learning because mistakes mean you're trying
647
and trying is the only way to improve what do you think Fizu that's hard Masu

654
We practiced how to encourage someone with negative thinking, and we practiced sharing our goals and positive mindset with a language partner.

664
That's growth mindset.
665
Also, at the beginning, I made a mistake.
666
I mixed up growth and fixed mindset.
667
But Masu explained it, and now I understand perfectly.
668

Waarom deze video perfect is voor spreekpractica
Deze video over "mindset" is een parel voor Engelsleerders omdat het zich richt op alledaagse conversaties die direct toepasbaar zijn. De dialogen zijn natuurlijk, met eenvoudige taal maar diepgaande onderwerpen, waardoor je niet alleen woorden leert, maar ook hoe je emoties en overtuigingen uitdrukt. Bovendien bevat het kleine grammaticacorrecties (zoals "it makes me feel" in plaats van "it make me feel"), die cruciaal zijn voor vloeiende spraak. Dit maakt het ideaal om te oefenen met de shadowing techniek, want de tempo is redelijk en de intonatie is helder.
Diepgaand: Wat maakt de taal natuurlijk?
Laten we enkele zinnen uit de conversatie onder de loep nemen:
- "Two people can experience the exact same situation but one person feels defeated and the other feels motivated." De structuur "but" maakt de zin dynamisch en weerspiegelt echte spraak, waar contrasten vaak direct genoemd worden.
- "Mindset is your way of thinking, your mental attitude about life." Door "your way of thinking" te herhalen met "your mental attitude" maakt het de definitie duidelijker zonder te complex te worden – een truc die native speakers vaak gebruiken.
- "Can you try that?" Deze vraag is vriendelijk en direct, wat typisch is voor interactieve gesprekken. Het moedigt de ander aan om te oefenen, net zoals je dat in echte situaties doet.
Dit soort zinnen leren je niet alleen woorden, maar ook hoe je taal gebruikt om verbinding te maken.
Oefenroutine: Shadowing voor betere uitspraak
Om de spraak echt te internaliseren, gebruik de schaduwspraak (shadowing). Volg deze stappen: 1. Speel een korte fragment van de video af (5-10 seconden). 2. Pauzeer en herhaal direct na de speaker, probeer het tempo, de intonatie en de uitspraak na te bootsen. 3. Neem jezelf op terwijl je dit doet. 4. Vergelijk je opname met de originele audio en let op verschillen in "makes" (met S) of "feel" (korte klinker). Herhaal dit dagelijks, en gebruik indien nodig een shadowing app om je voortgang te volgen. Deze methode helpt niet alleen je engelse uitspraak te verbeteren, maar ook je vloeiheid. Na een week merk je dat je sneller reageert en meer zelfvertrouwen hebt in conversaties over mindset en andere onderwerpen!
Grammatica in deze video
De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:
| Structuur | In de video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — iets dat eerder begon en nog bezig is | I've been trying · I've been practicing · have you been studying |
| Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog telt | haven't subscribed · Have you ever noticed · I've been |
| Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doet | are set · is fixed |
| Werkwoord + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — werkwoorden die door de -ing-vorm worden gevolgd | love reading · start learning · starts preparing |
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.
