Instead of
2
mindlessly scrolling on social media and comparing ourselves to others, let's do something more worthwhile with our time.
3
Here's a list of 100 things we can do without scrolling.
4
We can go for a walk.
5
It doesn't cost any money and we can do it anytime and almost anywhere.
6
On the days when we feel extra motivated, we can even go for a run.
7
If walking or running doesn't excite you and you feel like it's too boring, then combine it with something like listening to a podcast or an audiobook.
8
Have you ever tried a main character walk? listening to music, walking around and feeling like the main character in a movie.
9
I do this so often and it always makes me feel so confident, so powerful and so happy.
10
You can walk to a park, spend time in nature and soak in some vitamin D.
11
Or you go to a cafe, grab your favorite hot drink and walk around with it.
12
Moving our bodies in general, it makes us feel good and we all should do it more often.
13
We can also go to workout classes, which is also great to meet new people, yoga, pilates or what about trying the dance class that you've always wanted to try.
14
If you don't want to go out and rather stay at home, then grab your workout mat and do a home workout.
15
There are so many here on YouTube.
16
Strength training, stretching, whatever you feel like.
17
Or you try to learn a new skill like a handstand.
18
There used to be a time when we were We were so excited about all kinds of things,
19
like playing, dancing or enjoying time with others.
20
We were so adventurous, curious and our time was filled with exploring and learning.
21
Where did that time go and why did we stop?
22
Just because we're getting older doesn't mean that we are now too old to be curious, too old to explore or too old to learn something new.
23
We can, at any age, go on adventures and learn something new like riding a skateboard
24
or we can download an online course and learn about a specific topic, something that we are interested in, like for example to me it's filmmaking.
25
Be a student, at home, in a library or in a bookstore.
26
Grab a book and study, something that you always wanted to study.
27
We can learn a new language or learn something important that school never taught us, like how we should invest our money.
28
You always wanted to start a YouTube channel or you always wanted to start a business?
29
Then now do the research, figure out what you need and then learn.
30
Learn about what to do and how to start.
31
We can learn an instrument, learn how to grow flowers, herbs, vegetables or fruits.
32
The list of things we can learn is endless.
33
We just have to find out what makes us feel excited and then just do it.
34
Instead of scrolling, which often makes us feel left out or behind in life, why don't we take our time to do something that makes us feel good about ourselves and good about our life.
35
We can take the time to clean our apartments or to deep clean of room.
36
When was the last time you vacuumed under your bed?
37
We can reorganize a room, get small new things like fresh flowers or candles.
38
I also love to print out photos, put them in frames and decorate my rooms with it.
39
Declutter the clothes you haven't worn in years or all the old nail polish, makeup and skincare that's already expired.
40
Declutter the the books you won't read anymore or the accessories you no longer like.
41
Let go of all the things you no longer need.
42
It feels so damn free.
43
We can deep clean our fridge and then go grocery shopping to stock up on fresh, healthy and nourishing foods.
44
We can reorganize our pantry kitchen, get glass jars and fill them up with dry goods such as oats or dried fruits.
45
Clean your dirty makeup brushes.
46
Deep clean your laptop, which means you delete all the files you don't need anymore.
47
Do the same with your phone.
48
Delete all the apps you don't need anymore and sort out your photos.
49
Give your body some extra love with a manicure or pedicure.
50
Have a spa day at home or enjoy an everything shower, which is exactly what it sounds like.
51
A head to toe shower ritual that covers pretty much everything.
52
From shaving your body, to body scrub, to washing your hair.
53
You know what I mean.
54
Put on a face mask or hair mask and while waiting, you can catch up on journaling or do that puzzle.
55
That puzzle that's waiting for you to do it.
56
You always said you don't have time for it.
57
Now, you have time for it.
58
The thing is, I don't think scrolling or spending time on our phones is always bad.
59
Actually, if we are mindful and make conscious decisions about how we spend our time on our phones, then I think you can benefit us.
60
In so many ways.
61
Next time when you choose to scroll, then scroll.
62
But don't scroll for hours.
63
Instead, set a time limit and set a timer if needed.
64
Look out for inspiration and watch content that is actually helping, inspiring or motivating you.
65
You can search for specific things like recipes, travel inspiration or fashion looks.
66
Only watch content from accounts that make you feel good.
67
And remember that you have the power to choose what you consume and what you don't.
68
Use social media to be social.
69
Leave a nice meaningful comment or a message and last but not least, unfollow all the accounts of people that don't make you feel good.
70
You have the power.
71
I'm gonna repeat it.
72
You choose what and how you consume.
73
I want you to understand that you always have the choice.
74
Every day, every day you can choose if you want to spend your time comparing yourself to others or if you, instead, want to invest your time into becoming a better, smarter and stronger version of yourself.
75
Instead of scrolling, start writing.
76
Writing is so powerful.
77
Write down your thoughts, your feelings, make a list of all the things that make you happy.
78
Make another list of all the things that you want to do, like a bucket list.
79
Write down your dreams, your goals and plans for the future.
80
Make a vision board and then put it somewhere, somewhere where you can see it every day.
81
If you need inspiration and you don't know where to start, then get inspired on Pinterest.
82
Not a fan of writing?
83
Then create a keynote or a PowerPoint and make a presentation about your future life, dreams and all your goals.
84
How often do you feel like there's just not enough time?
85
Not enough time to have new experiences or to try new hobbies?
86
Where is all the time going and why does it feel like time is flying faster and faster?
87
I think we can't stop time.
88
We can't press pause, but we can consciously choose to make every moment and every day counts.
89
Every day we can try to make the most out of it
90
and try new things like ceramic painting or we try a new recipe from another country.
91
We can try to bake something then eat it ourselves or share it with our neighbors.
92
We can try to paint, grab a camera and take cool photos.
93
We can create our own film like a vlog or a video about something that we think is interesting.
94
What about trying a new hairstyle or watching a tutorial and trying a new makeup look.
95
Have a look into your wardrobe, dress up just for yourself and start romanticizing your life.
96
Go to the park and enjoy a meal in that park, have a picnic or date yourself, go on a solo date.
97
The thing is one day, one day you will wake up
98
and there won't be any more time to do the things that you've always wanted to do.
99
So please Do it now.
100
Even though it's scary, but ask that person to go out on a date with you.
101
Call your parents, call your grandparents and tell them you love them.
102
Or call a friend, someone you forgot to call in a very, very long time.
103
Are you always waiting for invitations from others?
104
Then why not hosting a dinner party yourself?
105
Or a little event, a party, a movie night or a game night?
106
Instead of watching Netflix at home alone, go to the cinema, go on adventures or go on a hike,
107

Сценарий: Как заменить прокрутку в соцсетях на полезные дела
Видео предлагает реальный сценарий: вместо бесконтрольной прокрутки в социальных сетях, вызывающей чувство неполноты, можно заняться делами, которые поднимают настроение и развивают навыки. Речь идет о простых, но эффективных действиях — от прогулок с подкастами до уборки дома или изучения нового языка. Такой контекст идеально подходит для практики аудирования и репликации, так как он содержит повседневные выражения и естественную интонацию.
Полезные сочетания и фразы для запоминания
- mindlessly scrolling — бесконтрольно прокручивать (например: "Instead of mindlessly scrolling, try reading a book").
- main character walk — прогулка в роли главного героя (используется с предлогом "go for": "I love going for a main character walk").
- deep clean — тщательно убрать (с указанием места: "deep clean the fridge" или "deep clean a room").
- nourishing foods — полезная еда (в контексте покупок: "stock up on fresh, nourishing foods").
- everything shower — комплексная душа (с описанием: "enjoy an everything shower with scrubs and masks").
Эти сочетания часто используются в разговорном английском, поэтому их запоминание поможет звучать естественно. Они подойдут для тренировки shadow speak — техники повторения речи за носителем.
Ваше задание на shadowing: повтори за видео
Для улучшения произношения английского и интонации попробуйте эту задачу: выберите 1-2 абзаца из видео (например, о прогулках или уборке) и прослушайте их несколько раз. Затем включите запись на паузу после каждого предложения и повторяйте его, копируя темп, высоту голоса и ударения. Это техника shadowing, которая помогает развить автоматизм речи. Используйте для тренировки shadowing site или запишите себя, чтобы сравнить с оригиналом. Практикуйте 5-10 минут ежедневно — это поможет быстро улучшить навыки разговорного английского.
Такой подход не только тренирует речь, но и мотивирует к полезным действиям — два в одном!

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
