Have you ever thought to yourself before going to sleep, tomorrow is the day I'll change,
3
tomorrow is the day I'll get up early in the morning, have a healthy breakfast, for a morning jog,
4
breathe fresh air, tomorrow is the day I want to change to who I really want to be,
5
the best version of myself.
6
While change doesn't come easy,
7
you have to incorporate certain habits in your life that will eventually lead to you becoming the best version of yourself.
8
You'll also have to eliminate certain habits that are hindering your path.
9
Well, how long will it take you to form a new habit or get rid of an old one?
10
Most people will tell you it takes exactly 21 days for a person to form a habit
11
or get rid of an old one.
12
I remember once in high school one of my teachers told
13
me it takes exactly 21 days for me to form a new habit
14
and i thought this is my chance to become a bed maker i thought that for the next 21 days
15
instead of getting up every day and yelling mom please don't forget to make my bed today
16
I thought I'd do it myself.
17
Day by day, early in the morning,
18
6 a.m., even on days I was running late, I got up every morning and I made my bed.
19
And I hated every second of it.
20
And by day 22, I opened my eyes, and the first thing I did was say,
21
Mom, please don't forget to make my bed today.
22
I quit.
23
And of course, that was expected.
24
And I thought, okay, maybe I'm just going to be a little bit worse at life than bed makers.
25
Whatever.
26
However, I do not exaggerate if I say that this 21-day theory is the most famous myth in the world of self-development.
27
Let's dive a little into our theory to understand where the number 21 came from
28
and the reasons for its spread in self-developmental books and courses.
29
Dr. Maxwell Maltz was a plastic surgeon in the 1950s when he began noticing a strange pattern among his patients.
30
For example, in a nose job,
31
he saw that the patient took exactly 21 days to get used to start seeing his or her new nose.
32
He also noticed that if a patient had an arm or leg amputated, the patient would acknowledge the feeling of their new limb for
33
exactly 21 days before starting to get used to their new condition.
34
Dr. Maltz published his theory in a book that went very famous in that era and sold over
35
30 million copies and here the conflict started brewing and people
36
and it made sense why people were starting to believe his
37
theory why number one the number 21 is considered a source a short period of time
38
and that's also considered a source of temptation which means something you can do
39
number two the number 21 is also long enough to be believable a difficult challenge but not
40
impossible i mean who wouldn't love to change their whole life
41
within just 21 days wouldn't Wouldn't you love to start waking
42
up early in the morning every day wouldn't you love to
43
start cooking healthy recipes wouldn't you love to start drinking weird smoothies
44
and all within less than one month we'd go for it in a heartbeat
45
so is it true can we really change our lives within 21 days I know that sounds very exciting,
46
but there are actually a few factors you'd have to consider
47
to be able to estimate the time it'll take you to form a new habit
48
or get rid of an old toxic one.
49
Number one is the complexity of your goal.
50
If I decide to start eating fruit daily, which is considered a simple habit,
51
I'd probably take less time than if I want to acquire a complex athletic skill, like a tennis serve.
52
Number two, behavior consistency affects the speed of acquisition.
53
Me repeating a certain behavior for three minutes a day is
54
different than my friend repeating the same behavior for 30 minutes a day.
55
So we want to clear things up.
56
How long will it take us to form a new habit or get rid of an old one?
57
And is there a reliable study that we can depend on?
58
Answer is yes.
59
There is a famous study by the psychologist Philip Lally titled, How Are Habits Formed?
60
The study followed 96 people over a period of 12 weeks.
61
Each person chose a new 12-week habit to work on,
62
such as drinking three cups of water before lunch or running for 15 minutes after dinner.
63
After 12 weeks, the data was analyzed to determine the time needed to move
64
from the old habit to start subconsciously carrying out the new one.
65
And after 12 weeks, we found
66
that it took approximately two to eight months in order for the task to become a habit,
67
and 66 days to be exact.
68
The difference in time it took to form a habit was largely due to the task itself, the person, and their circumstances,
69
as some were able to form the habit within 18 days, while others took 254 days.
70
So according to psychologist Lally, if you want to know the time required to form a new habit or get rid of an old one,
71
the truth is that you may need two to eight months and not just 21 days.
72
Guys, whether it's two months, three months, a year, two years, it doesn't actually matter how long it takes.
73
As much as it matters that you have to begin with today.
74
And once you begin, make sure to maintain your new habit.
75
Make it part of your schedule.
76
Set reminders.
77
Create a supportive environment.
78
and most importantly, you don't have to be perfect.
79
Making a mistake once or twice has no lasting effects on your behavior.
80
Actually, that'll give you time not to rush yourself into things.
81
You have to give yourself time and not just rush yourself into becoming a better virgin.
82
If I want to become a better person, I'll have to commit to the system and embrace the process.
83
That way, I'll commit to making timely improvements rather than rushing myself too hard into things.
84
Change is not always easy and it's not always simple.
85
But with enough dedication, any habit can be reshaped.
86
So if you really want it, becoming the best version of yourself, get up today and start working on it.
87
I promise you'll get there.
88
Thank you.

Советы по практике

Чтобы извлечь максимум пользы из данного видео, используйте метод shadow speech для улучшения произношения и понимания. Смотрите видео и следуйте за голосом спикера, пытаясь повторить фразы в том же темпе. Не бойтесь делать паузы, чтобы углубиться в каждое предложение. Это отличный способ учить английский с YouTube, так как вы можете подстраивать скорость воспроизведения под себя. Попробуйте использовать shadowspeaks, чтобы отслеживать свои улучшения и прогресс. Важно поддерживать shadowing английский на регулярной основе, чтобы усвоенные привычки укреплялись.

Постарайтесь практиковать хотя бы 10-15 минут в день. Это время может показаться незначительным, но последовательность и регулярность — ключевые факторы в процессе формирования новых привычек. Обратите внимание на свой прогресс и постарайтесь применять новые слова и выражения в своей повседневной речи. Это поможет вам не только закрепить изученный материал, но и развить уверенность в своих языковых навыках.

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.
