Criando lição...
1
I've actually always found something to be very true,
2
which is most people don't get those experiences because they never ask.
3
I've never found anybody that didn't want to help me if I asked them for help.
4
I always call them up.
5
I called up, this will date me, but I called up Bill Hewlett when I was 12 years old and he lived in Palo Alto.
6
His number was still in the phone book.
7
And he answered the phone himself.
8
He said, yes?
9
He said, hi, I'm Steve Jobs.
10
I'm 12 years old.
11
I'm a student in high school, and I want to build a frequency counter.
12
And I was wondering if you had any spare parts I could have.
13
And he laughed, and he gave me the spare parts to build his frequency counter, and he gave me a job that summer in Hewlett-Packard working on the assembly line,
14
putting nuts and bolts together on frequency counters.
15
He got me a job in the place that built them.
16
And I was in heaven.
17
And I've never found anyone who said no or hung up the phone when I called.
18
I just asked.
19
And when people ask me, I try to be as responsive, you know, to pay that debt of gratitude back.
20
Most people never pick up the phone and call.
21
Most people never ask.
22
And that's what separates sometimes the people that do things from the people that just dream about them.
23
You've got to act.
24
And you've got to be willing to fail.
25
You've got to be willing to crash and burn.
26
with people on the phone, with starting a company, whatever.
27
If you're afraid of failing, you won't get very far.

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.
