1
Look, learning English helps me feel strong in professional situations.
2
SPS acknowledges the traditional custodians of country and their connections and continuous care for the skies, land and waterways throughout Australia.
3
My work days can feel the same every day.
4
Emails, meetings, deadlines.
5
And sometimes one task, even if it's very small, can feel very hard.
6
You put it off, think about it all day, and then it just stays on your to-do list.
7
A to-do list is a list of jobs that you have to do.
8
Do you make those for yourself?
9
For me, it's not a task itself that is difficult.
10
It's just getting started on it.
11
Hi, I'm Josipa and in this episode we are talking about small wins at work.
12
Those tiny achievements that help us feel good and stay motivated.
13
So let's imagine a short break at work, coffee in hand, Alan and Claire are chatting about the little wins they had today.
14
I finally sent that email I've been putting off.
15
Give yourself a pat on the back.
16
I know that was a tough one.
17
I know, right?
18
I even treated myself to chocolate.
19
Good on you.
20
Now use that small win to build some momentum.
21
Small wins at work might not seem like a big deal, but for me, they can make a huge difference.
22
How about you?
23
Do you celebrate small wins?
24
While you think about your last small win, let's look more closely at the phrases we just heard.
25
Alan first said, I finally sent that email I've been putting off.
26
To put something off means to delay doing it, often because it feels difficult or uncomfortable.
27
It's a very common phrase in everyday English, especially when talking about work.
28
For example, you could say, I've been putting off that report all week.
29
Or, I keep putting off calling the client.
30
I keep putting off cleaning those shelves.
31
Next, Claire said...
32
Give yourself a pat on the back.
33
To give yourself a pat on the back means to feel proud about something you've done.
34
It is like you praise yourself.
35
It's often used when someone has achieved something, even something small.
36
You might also hear, You should be proud of yourself.
37
Or, more casually, Nice work!
38
Then Alan said, I even treated myself to chocolate.
39
To treat yourself means to give yourself a small reward.
40
It could be chocolate, a coffee, a break, or anything you enjoy.
41
For example, I treated myself to a nice lunch.
42
Or I'll treat myself after I finish this task.
43
Next, Claire said...
44
Now use that small win to build some momentum.
45
Momentum is energy and movement so that things progress.
46
When you build momentum, one small success helps you move on to the next task and so you keep going.
47
You could also say...
48
Keep the ball rolling with that win.
49
The phrase, keep the ball rolling, comes from sport.
50
When you roll a ball, it keeps moving.
51
In English, we use it to mean keep going or don't stop.
52
Keep the ball rolling.
53
For example, I finally got through my emails.
54
Now I can keep the ball rolling and finish my report.
55
Finally, Alan said...
56
One step at a time.
57
I'm slowly getting there.
58
One step at a time is a very common phrase in English.
59
It means focusing on small actions instead of trying to do everything at once.
60
It's often used to talk about habits, work goals or personal progress.
61
And of course, you're not getting to any particular destination when you say, I'm taking one step at a time.
62
But you are making progress in whatever you are doing.
63
You could also say, I'm getting there, slowly but surely.
64
Or, I'm making steady progress.
65
If you are making steady progress, you are slowly improving or getting better, one step at a time.
66
Now, let's run through that dialogue one more time, and then my favourite part, our turn to practice out loud.
67
Let's go.
68
I finally sent that email I've been putting off.
69
Give yourself a pat on the back.
70
I know that was a tough one.
71
I know, right?
72
I even treated myself to chocolate.
73
Good on you!
74
Now use that small wind to build some momentum.
75
Now it's time to practice.
76
See if you remember the meaning before hearing the answer.
77
What does it mean to put something off?
78
To put something off means to delay doing something, often because it feels difficult or uncomfortable.
79
What does it mean to treat yourself?
80
To treat yourself means to give yourself a small reward.
81
It could be chocolate, a coffee, a break, or anything you enjoy.
82
Now let's practice our pronunciation skills by repeating after Alan and Claire.
83
You should be proud of yourself.
84
Give yourself a pat on the back.
85
I treated myself to chocolate.
86
Keep the ball rolling with that win.

Грамматика в этом видео
Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:
| Конструкция | В видео |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect Continuous have/has been + -ing — действие началось раньше и продолжается | I've been putting |
| Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчас | you've done · has achieved |
| Глагол + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — глаголы, после которых идёт форма на -ing | keep putting · keeps moving |
| Совет с «should» should + глагол — сказать, что стоит сделать | should be |
Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание
Говорящий использует 16 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например I'm, I've, don't. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.
- Звуки «sh» и «zh»: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, casually /ˈkæʒuəli/, shelf /ʃɛlf/, destination /dɛstɪˈneɪʃən/
- Длинные слова — следите за ударением: momentum /ˌmə(ʊ)ˈmɛntəm/, uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, continuous /kənˈtɪn.juː.əs/, destination /dɛstɪˈneɪʃən/
Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:
- /w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: reward /ɹɪˈwɔɹd/, waterway /ˈwɔːtəweɪ/
- Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/, reward /ɹɪˈwɔɹd/, acknowledge /əkˈnɑ.lɪd͡ʒ/, dialogue /ˈdaɪəˌlɑɡ/, praise /pɹeɪz/
Как заниматься с этим видео
- Прослушайте всё видео один раз молча и выпишите незнакомые слова.
- Повторяйте предложение за предложением на обычной скорости, пока ваш ритм не совпадёт с ритмом говорящего.
- Запишите себя и сравните с оригиналом, обращая внимание на такие слова, как momentum, phrase, uncomfortable.
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.
