Prática de Shadowing: How to Accept Criticism (Gracefully) - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo
Criando lição...
1
There's a reason one sentence of criticism from your boss can ruin your entire week
2
because your brain doesn't just hear you missed the mark.
3
It hears if you keep missing the mark, you're gonna lose your job and we are gonna fire you.
4
So today I'm going to walk you through four mistakes almost everyone makes when responding to criticism.
5
And then I'll show you the filter that I use to decide what to take in, what to clarify and what to let go of.
6
better and the one thing that holds them back is their inability to handle criticism
7
and feedback in a constructive way
8
because many wonderful opportunities for growth they actually arrive disguised as criticism
9
if you've never learned how to handle this you'll spend your entire life rejecting the very type of feedback
10
that could have changed your life mistake number one you get defensive the second criticism comes your way
11
when someone critiques you it rarely feels like they're
12
A lot of the time people genuinely just don't know how to give feedback in a way that's constructive.
13
I promise you 90 % of the time the people giving you criticism, they aren't actually trying to destroy you.
14
They're trying to help you improve They just never learned how to do it well
15
and because most people suck at giving feedback the criticism comes across
16
and feels like an attack But it's actually just information that you can actually use to get better that I knew.
17
And every single time I showed him a new card routine, whoa!
18
Try that again.
19
Oh Not editing whatsoever.
20
That was just all real.
21
That was real magic
22
But every single time I would show my cousin a piece of sleight of hand a new card routine
23
that I've learned He would always say things like watch your
24
angles Vin Everyone on your left can see how you did
25
the trick you flash the second card looking back He was just trying to help me, but at the time I got super offended.
26
I wasn't hearing any of the feedback I was just hearing you're not good enough Vin
27
in myself and then I was just thinking he was being overly critical of me and I actually don't need this anymore.
28
Okay Peter, that's the wrong edit.
29
Can we just do that again please?
30
And that's what I'm talking about.
31
And because I reacted so badly to the feedback my cousin Hung was giving me, eventually He stopped giving me feedback.
32
completely.
33
And think about that for a second.
34
The person who was most qualified to help me improve, he stopped helping me because I trained him to stop because of my inability to receive feedback.
35
So for about a year after that, I kept practicing on my own without getting any feedback from anybody.
36
And then I started to perform for real people, for audiences, and then they'd start to say things to me like, "Oh Vin, I saw the card in your hand.
37
Wait, it went into the other hand.
38
Oh, I saw you palm it." And then it hit me.
39
My cousin Hong wasn't trying to make me feel bad when he was giving me the feedback.
40
He was actually trying to help me and save me from those exact moments.
41
If someone cares about you enough to hand you the gift of growth, don't slam the door on it because it arrives in bad packaging.
42
Because if you keep slamming the door, you train the people around you to stop sharing anything useful.
43
Your friends stop being honest with you.
44
Your team stops raising the issues that they feel inside.
45
Your mentor holds back when giving you feedback.
46
And your manager softens everything until it becomes almost pointless and meaningless.
47
more that are preventing you from growing.
48
That's what happens when everyone around you has been trained to protect your feelings instead of telling you the truth.
49
Now of course not all criticism comes from a good place.
50
Which leads me to...
51
Mistake number two.
52
You treat all criticism the same.
53
I learned this one the hard way too, unfortunately for me.
54
I started creating content back in 2009.
55
I loved more than anything making mini short films.
56
Even appeared in the background as an extra of one of my favorite youtubers here on youtube, Wong Fu Productions.
57
And after I uploaded my first few short films on my youtube They weren't even critiquing the story.
58
They were critiquing and mocking the way I shot the footage, the way I looked, my appearance.
59
And those comments made me feel extremely insecure.
60
It made me so insecure that I actually stopped making videos with my face in them.
61
When I started making magic videos, I decided to only show my hands my legs and yeah, yeah, my crotch.
62
And that's why they called me the crotch magician.
63
And because then they teased me about that, I then stopped creating content altogether for a good while.
64
Looking back now, what fascinates me isn't the fact that people called me ugly.
65
It's what I started to believe because of those comments.
66
Somewhere along the way, I adopted the idea that only attractive and good looking people should create content.
67
That if people thought I was ugly or you were ugly, you should stay out of the spotlight, regardless of how much value you have to offer the world.
68
Which sounds completely ridiculous.
69
But that's what criticism can do if you're not careful.
70
You stop evaluating whether or not the criticism is true and you start building your whole damn life around it.
71
After I decided to stop creating content, I remember seeing all my camera gear sit there in the corner, my lights and my microphone, and every single time I saw them, it really hurt.
72
Because they weren't reminders of my journey as a creator, they were reminders of the criticism and the meanness that existed within those comments.
73
At that stage of my life, I didn't know how to sort the criticism properly, so I gave the comments far more weight and authority than they deserved,
74
and it cost me three whole years.
75
through to the person's profile.
76
No scope 360, eh?
77
They have no videos on their channel, no body of work, no evidence that they have ever created anything.
78
they were just a spectator telling those in the arena how
79
they should be fighting can you see the problem here the problem was
80
that i was treating all criticism as
81
if they deserved the same amount of authority upon realizing this
82
instead of asking myself is this criticism i now ask who is this criticism coming from
83
because criticism and credibility they're not the same thing earlier this year i was in dubai
84
and i happened to be in the same room as mr beast one of the biggest in the world.
85
Now if Mr Beast looked at one of my thumbnails of my videos and said, "Vin, I think you could improve the packaging and make it stronger." Would I listen?
86
Absolutely.
87
Because he's spent years studying attention, audience psychology, at a level that very few people on earth have done.
88
But, on the other hand, if a random user on YouTube who has an account that has an egg as its profile picture comments "Bro, your content sucks", that doesn't carry the same weight.
89
Let me give you another example.
90
I would never take content creation advice from my mom, but if Peter, my head of creative, gives me feedback on my content, I'm listening.
91
Now, would I listen to Peter's advice on parenting?
92
Absolutely not!
93
Peter's a terrible father!
94
What?
95
I don't even have kids!
96
Exactly.
97
Case in point.
98
Terrible father.
99
He doesn't even know they exist.
100
Shameful.
101
Do you know what else is shameful?
102
Peter has asked me right now in this moment in the video to do a call to action to say, by the way, if you're new to my channel
103
and you want to join me for a free two hour
104
masterclass where I'm going to teach you how to speak with more clarity and also to stop rambling, make sure you click the link in the description or scan the key.
105
QR code just on screen over here.
106
And I'll teach you how to turn your thoughts into words faster by communicating with frameworks.
107
God damn it, Peter.
108
That's so shameful.
109
Before we get to the next point.
110
Oh, thank you.
111
I just needed to quickly have a sip of water.
112
Oh, just wash the shame out.
113
I hate working with Peter.
114
Mistake number three, you let a vague criticism So what do you think then?
115
"Ahh, it's not good Peter.
116
I'm just not feeling the vibe." "Oh man, I knew he never liked me.
117
He probably regrets hiring me.
118
Now he has to think about firing me, but he just doesn't know how to say it." "So then he just criticizes my edits
119
so I can get the picture without him actually saying it." In that situation, when I gave Peter feedback, I was being far too vague.
120
And when someone receives vague criticism, instead of clarifying it, they just create a story in their heads about what it means.
121
to that's what makes vague criticism so dangerous the comment itself is unclear
122
but the story
123
that you start to build around it in your own head
124
becomes painfully clear it's not good becomes i'm not good now
125
you're not responding to the feedback anymore you're responding to the story
126
that you created in your own head vague criticism gives you just enough information to feel bad
127
but not enough information to improve don't assume the first comment is the whole critique get curious Yeah.
128
Pause.
129
Sometimes if you just leave a little bit of silence, the other person will naturally explain what they mean and give you more context.
130
And if they don't, you take control.
131
Ask them a question that turns the criticism or the vague criticism into specific information.
132
For example, if somebody is being vague, you can just ask, hey, when you said that, What did you specifically mean? because the very moment you ask for clarity,
133
one of two things will happen.
134
Either the person gets really specific and gives you something useful, or you realize they were only one layer deep and they had nothing to add.
135
That one question protects you from building a whole negative identity around feedback that was never fully formed in the first place.
136
Let me show you the two examples I'm talking about.
137
So what do you think, Ben?
138
Ah, Peter, I'm just not feeling the vibe.
139
When you say vibe, - No. Well, I was just bored, just making conversation.
140
I was only one layer deep in this scenario.
141
Just not really feeling the vibe Peter.
142
Yeah.
143
When you say vibe, what do you mean by that?
144
Well, it's kind of the soundtrack is off.
145
The edit's really good, brother.
146
But I just feel like the music is a bit too slow.
147
We need to speed up the pace.
148
Maybe something more upbeat.
149
Maybe something more inspiring.
150
Yeah, I love that.
151
Thanks for the feedback.
152
That right there.
153
That's the difference.
154
So the next time somebody gives you vague feedback, slow it down.
155
Ask the next clarifying question.
156
Make sure the feedback earns its meaning.
157
And you know what?
158
This has made me curious.
159
I want to say it's a little bit more.
160
I want you to drop a comment down below.
161
Let me know when somebody's given you a vague piece of feedback, and what story did you start to create around it?
162
Maybe re -examine those to see if those stories that you created are even true.
163
Leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you.
164
Mistake number four, you think the goal is thicker skin.
165
It might sound like the goal is to build thicker skin when you talk about criticism and feedback, but I actually think that advice is a little bit dangerous.
166
When people say you need thicker skin, affect you.
167
If every piece of criticism feels like an attack of course you'll start to build armor around yourself to protect yourself.
168
You'll become harder to hurt.
169
It kind of makes sense but here's the issue.
170
The same armor that keeps the attack out also keeps out the insights.
171
A troll online says something cruel it hits the wall good it hits the armor it did its job
172
but then the mentor points out a blind spot of yours and it hits the same wall it hits the same armor.
173
Your Same damn armor, same damn wall.
174
Your partner says, hey, when you do this, it makes me feel unheard.
175
Yep, you guessed it, same armor, same wall.
176
And now the thing you built to protect yourself is also preventing you from growing.
177
That's why I believe the goal isn't to build thicker skin.
178
The goal is to use a better filter.
179
And that's exactly what I want to give you right now.
180
Step number one.
181
Pause.
182
Don't react right away and ask yourself one question.
183
What is one useful thing that I can take from this?
184
The moment criticism hits, your body wants to defend, deflect and justify.
185
But if you can buy yourself just five seconds and ask that one question, you force your brain to switch from threat into learning mode.
186
serious attention.
187
Step three, is there specific feedback?
188
If not, and it's really vague and wishy -washy, Ask a question to qualify it and to get specifics.
189
Step number four, Take what's useful and let the rest pass on by.
190
You're not building a wall that blocks everything, you're building a filter that sorts the good stuff from the bad stuff and the useless stuff.
191
What's credible, specific and constructive gets to come in.
192
What's vague, unearned and sometimes even just mean passes through you and keeps on moving straight into the trash can.
193
You don't have to store it, you can just let it go.
194
Criticism, feedback and honest conversations are so important because sometimes the people around you can see things that you cannot.
195
If you're willing to stay open long enough to hear the feedback and receive the criticism, it can change the trajectory of your life.
196
Every opportunity for growth often arrives disguised as criticism.
197
And if you learn how to recognize it, filter it
198
and then use it you'll gain access to lessons that most people spend their entire lives looking for.
199
I'll see you in the next video.

Dicas de Prática
Para aproveitar ao máximo esta lição, recomendo utilizar a técnica de shadowing em inglês. Durante a visualização do vídeo, tente repetir as falas logo após ouvi-las. Isso irá ajudá-lo a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês, permitindo que você se familiarize com a entonação e o ritmo da fala natural. Lembre-se de prestar atenção à maneira como o orador expressa suas emoções ao falar sobre críticas; isso torna o exercício mais eficaz.
Por se tratar de um conteúdo que aborda situações delicadas, comece praticando em um tom mais lento, pois isso facilitará a assimilação do vocabulário técnico. Ao se sentir mais confortável, você pode aumentar progressivamente a velocidade para acostumar-se com diferentes ritmos de fala. Além disso, procure prática de conversação em inglês com um parceiro ou até mesmo em um shadowing site, onde você possa trocar ideias sobre como lidar com críticas e discutir os desafios que enfrentou ao fazer isso.
Por fim, ao usar a técnica de shadow speech, busque feedbacks sobre sua pronúncia e habilidades de conversação de pessoas em quem confia. Aceitar críticas pode ser difícil, mas é um passo crucial para seu crescimento e sucesso tanto no aprendizado de inglês quanto em várias áreas de sua vida.
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.
