English Leap Podcast from Speak English with Class.
2
Hey, English learners.
3
Welcome back to the English Leap Podcast,
4
the place where you learn real English through real conversations.
5
I'm Kate.
6
And I'm Ben.
7
It feels so good to be here again.
8
You know, Kate, today's topic, it's a big one.
9
Oh, totally.
10
We're talking about something that everyone dreams about, but not everyone does.
11
It's called How to Push Yourself to Success.
12
Yeah, success.
13
Everyone wants it, right?
14
But sometimes we just wait for it to happen.
15
We wait for the perfect time,
16
or more motivation, or a better mood.
17
Yeah, and while we wait,
18
days turn into weeks, and dreams just sit there,
19
waiting for us to move.
20
This episode is about that moment.
21
The moment when you stop waiting and you start moving,
22
even when it's hard, even when you don't feel ready.
23
And we'll talk about how small steps,
24
mindset shifts, and even tiny pushes can completely change your path.
25
In English, in life, in everything.
26
So if you've ever felt lazy,
27
tired, scared, or just stuck, stay with us.
28
You're not alone.
29
Yeah, we've been there too.
30
But today, we're going to help you push through it.

36
and reflection questions to help you grow faster.
37
Alright, take a deep breath,
38
my friend, because today, you're about to take your next step forward.
39
Yeah, let's begin.
40
You know, success sounds beautiful when we talk about it, right?
41
Everyone says, I want to be successful.
42
I want to change my life.
43
Yeah, we love the idea of success,
44
the celebration, the results, the praise,
45
but not the part before that,
46
the work, the pain, the discomfort.
47
Right.
48
Everyone wants the view from the mountain, but not the climb. So true.
49
And that climb, it's not always pretty.
50
It's tiring, sometimes lonely, sometimes painful.
51
But if you stop because it's hard,
52
you'll never reach the top.
53
You know what this reminds me of?
54
When I started working out last year,
55
I wanted to feel strong,
56
look better, have more energy.
57
But when my alarm went off at 6 a.m.,
58
my brain went, Ben, sleep is also part of health.
59
Oh, that's so me!
60
Every time I plan to go for a run,
61
suddenly the bed feels extra comfortable,
62
and I tell myself, tomorrow.
63
Definitely tomorrow.
64
And that's where most people stop.
65
Not because they can't do it,
66
but because they don't want to feel uncomfortable.
67
But growth lives in that discomfort.
68
It's like jumping into cold water.
69
The first few seconds shock you,
70
but then it feels refreshing.
71
Hmm, yes.
72
And once you push through that uncomfortable moment,
73
it starts to change you.
74
Not just outside, but inside too.
75
That's the real test.
76
Doing what you said you'd do even when it's not easy.
77
And that leads perfectly to our next point.
78
You don't need to feel ready.
79
You just need to start.
80
I love this one.
81
Because I think most of us keep waiting for that right moment.
82
You know, when we'll feel confident or have more time or when everything feels perfect.
83
Oh, totally.
84
I used to do that all the time.
85
Actually, remember when Aaron and Evan first asked us to host this podcast?
86
Oh, yeah.
87
How could I forget?
88
You were like, me?
89
No way.
90
I don't think I'm ready for that.
91
I really said that.
92
I was so nervous.
93
I kept thinking, what if I mess up?
94
What if my accent sounds weird?
95
What if people don't like my voice?
96
Yeah, you were overthinking everything.
97
And I remember telling you,
98
Kate, nobody ever feels ready the first time.
99
Yeah, and you were right.
100
I finally said yes, even though my hands were shaking when we recorded the first episode.
101
But once we finished, I felt this wave of pride,
102
like I actually did it.
103
That's the thing.
104
Courage doesn't show up before you start.
105
It shows up because you start.
106
You just have to push yourself past that first wave of fear.
107
Mmm, yeah.
108
You don't wait for confidence to magically appear.
109
You build it, step by step.
110
And look at us now.
111
This is only our second episode.
112
But already, it feels easier, smoother.
113
Right?
114
That's proof that confidence grows with action.
115
You don't wait for it.
116
You earn it.
117
So if you're listening right now, maybe you're waiting too.
118
Waiting to start learning English.
119
or chasing a dream or changing your life.
120
Here's the truth.
121
You'll never feel completely ready.
122
But if you start now,
123
you'll be ready sooner than you think.
124
Don't wait for the perfect time.
125
The right time is the moment you decide to move.
126
That's it.
127
Just start and everything else will follow.
128
Speaking of starting small, that brings us to our next point.
129
Because once you take that first step,
130
what really matters is what you do next.
131
You know, people often think success means making some huge dramatic change.
132
Like, I'll quit everything and start fresh.
133
But real success doesn't work that way.
134
It's built quietly, slowly, one small push at a time.
135
Yeah, so true.
136
I remember when I was trying to improve my English years ago.
137
I thought I had to study for hours to make progress,
138
but I'd just get tired and give up.
139
Then one day, I started writing short notes every night,
140
tiny ones like three sentences about my day.
141
And over time, my writing got so much better.
142
That's perfect.
143
Because small steps don't scare you, they're doable.
144
When I was learning guitar,
145
I told myself just 10 minutes a day
146
and at first I laughed 10 minutes felt useless but after a month I could play full songs.
147
I love that it's like pushing a heavy train the first few pushes feel impossible
148
but once it starts moving it becomes unstoppable exactly small pushes build momentum
149
and momentum builds belief and every time you show up,
150
even when you don't feel like it,
151
you teach your brain that you're serious.
152
Yeah, it's not about perfection, it's about presence.
153
Showing up for yourself, even for five minutes,
154
makes you stronger than the version of you who did nothing.
155
That's how success is built.
156
One small promise kept every day.
157
Beautifully said.
158
And that brings us to something important.
159
Because when you keep pushing,
160
sometimes things still don't go the way you expect.
161
Right.
162
Sometimes you fail.
163
And it hurts.
164
But that doesn't mean it's over.
165
It means you're learning.
166
And that's exactly what we'll talk about next.
167
You know, Ben, failure used to scare me.
168
I thought if I failed,
169
it meant I wasn't good enough.
170
Same here.
171
I used to think success meant no mistakes.
172
But now I see the truth.
173
Success needs mistakes.
174
Yeah, because mistakes show you what doesn't work.
175
And that's powerful.
176
When I failed my first job interview,
177
I cried the whole day.
178
I felt embarrassed, like I wasn't smart enough.
179
But a week later, I realized I didn't fail because I was bad.
180
I failed because I wasn't prepared yet.
181
That's such a big shift.
182
You didn't lose, you just got feedback.
183
When I started a little YouTube channel years ago,
184
my first video got like 10 views.
185
I deleted it.
186
Oh no, you didn't.
187
I did.
188
But now I wish I hadn't.
189
Those 10 people actually watched me.
190
I could have learned and improved.
191
But I gave up too early.
192
Yeah.
193
Failing doesn't mean you're finished.
194
It means you're in training.
195
It's like a GPS.
196
When you take a wrong turn,
197
it doesn't say trip over.
198
It says recalculating.
199
I love that.
200
Recalculating.
201
So next time you fail, don't quit.
202
Just adjust.
203
That's what pushing yourself really means.
204
Not doing everything right, but not giving up when it goes wrong.
205
Mmm, yes.
206
Every failure carries a lesson,
207
if you're brave enough to listen.
208
And that connects perfectly to the next one.
209
Because when we fail, we often start looking around and thinking,
210
they're doing better than me.
211
Let's talk about that.
212
Oh, this one hits hard.
213
I still do it sometimes.
214
I scroll through social media and see people doing amazing things,
215
and suddenly, I feel small.
216
Me too.
217
You see someone fluent in three languages,
218
someone with a perfect body,
219
someone always traveling, and you think, ugh, I'm so behind.
220
Yeah, but what we forget is,
221
people only show their best moments.
222
They don't post the days they felt tired or scared or lost.
223
Exactly.
224
We see the highlight reel, not the full movie.
225
And when you compare your behind-the-scenes to someone else's highlight,
226
you'll always feel like you're losing.
227
That's such a good way to say it.
228
Because success is personal.
229
You can't copy someone's path.
230
Your road might be longer, slower, or completely different.
231
And that's okay.
232
Right.
233
It's like running in your own lane.
234
If you keep looking at the person next to you,
235
you'll trip on your own path.
236
Mm, so true.
237
Keep your eyes on your journey.
238
Even if you move slowly, you're still moving.
239
And who knows, maybe someone else is looking at you and feeling inspired.
240
Yeah, so if you're listening right now and thinking,
241
everyone's ahead of me, remember, you're not behind.
242
You're just on your timeline.
243
Once you stop comparing, everything feels lighter.
244
Your journey gets quieter, more peaceful, more you.
245
Because pushing yourself isn't about going faster.
246
It's about moving right for you.
247
And part of that is knowing when to rest, not quit.
248
You know, Kate, people forget that rest is not the opposite of hard work.
249
It's part of it.
250
Totally.
251
I used to feel guilty every time I took a break.
252
Like, if I wasn't busy, I wasn't serious.
253
But I learned something.
254
Burnout doesn't mean you're strong.
255
It means you ignored your limits.
256
Yes.
257
Even athletes rest.
258
Even the sun sets.
259
Rest doesn't mean you stopped shining.
260
It means you're recharging to shine again.
261
That's beautiful.
262
And the same goes for small wins.
263
We're so focused on the big goals that we forget the little victories.
264
Finishing a lesson, improving pronunciation,
265
or even showing up to listen to this podcast today.
266
Exactly.
267
Every little win deserves a moment of pride,
268
because those small victories keep your motivation alive.
269
It's like climbing a mountain.
270
If you never stop to rest or look at how far you've come,
271
you'll lose the joy of the climb. So true.
272
Pushing yourself isn't only about moving forward.
273
It's about pausing, smiling, and saying, I'm doing it. Because you are.
274
If you're still trying, you're already succeeding.
275
And that's what this whole episode is really about.
276
Not being perfect, but being persistent.
277
Um, yeah.
278
Take a deep breath.
279
You've come far.
280
And the best part?
281
You're still climbing.
282
You know, Kate, I think that's the real meaning of success.
283
It's not one big win.
284
It's all the small moments you say, I'll try again.
285
Yeah, those quiet moments when no one's watching.
286
But you still decide to keep going.
287
That's where real growth happens.
288
Right.
289
And if you think about everything today, it all connects.
290
You step out of your comfort zone.
291
You take action even when you're not ready.
292
You push a little every day.
293
You learn from failure, you stop comparing,
294
and you rest when you need to.
295
That's such a beautiful cycle.
296
A real, human one.
297
Because success isn't just about reaching the top,
298
it's about who you become on the way there.
299
And remember, pushing yourself doesn't mean being hard on yourself.
300
It means believing you can grow, even when it's hard.
301
You're stronger than you think.
302
So keep climbing.
303
Keep learning.
304
pushing yourself to success.
305
This is Ben and I'm Kate.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
