Hello everyone, thanks for being here.
2
Today I want to talk about one of my favorite topics, self-love.
3
I have so many things to say in this video,
4
so let's dive right into it.
5
I have a question for you.
6
Do you think loving yourself is selfish?
7
I've seen so many people being accused of selfishness when they start choosing themselves,
8
and I want to say something about this.
9
To people who want to manipulate you
10
and take advantage of you to people who want you to sacrifice your happiness
11
and your well-being for them they will 100% accuse you of being selfish
12
when you prioritize yourself and let me tell you this there are
13
so many people like this sometimes they can even be your
14
family members don't ever let anyone manipulate you into believing
15
that loving yourself
16
and choosing yourself is bad i mean let's get this straight okay people who are unhappy
17
when you choose yourself are those who benefit from you not
18
choosing yourself just think about it people who get angry
19
and like resentful when you live your life in a way
20
that makes you feel truly happy only care about their own needs so they will
21
guilt trip you and make you believe you are selfish when they are in fact the most self-centered ones
22
you need to see through them you need to be the first person to prioritize yourself
23
because no one's going to do that for you i mean
24
if you're happy sacrificing your health and energy for others it's your life
25
and i have nothing to say but i just hope
26
that you love yourself enough to always choose the best for yourself and never accept anything that is below your standards
27
whether it's a partner, a relationship,
28
a friendship, or a thought, a belief, an identity.
29
The moment you realize that something or someone is not benefiting you,
30
they're not adding anything good to your life,
31
but only taking from you and harming you, it's time to leave.
32
It's time to end things and free yourself.
33
Always ask yourself, is this benefiting me?
34
Is this improving my life?
35
Is this enriching my life?
36
If the answer is no,
37
you need to do something and only you can save yourself.
38
Anything that is toxic and negative needs to be removed from your life right away.
39
And when you love yourself enough,
40
you will be so quick with this.
41
As soon as you see people's true colors,
42
they're out and never coming back.
43
The same thing goes with negative thoughts and beliefs.
44
They don't even stand a chance.
45
That's how you know you love yourself.
46
You'll start calling people out.
47
I don't care who is disrespecting you.
48
You should never let it pass.
49
If they disrespect you, if they say things that hurt you, call them out.
50
Ask them, what makes you think it's okay for you to say these things to me?
51
Why do you say that to me?
52
Why?
53
Don't ever say the same things to me again.
54
You need to stand up for yourself like that because no one is going to do that for you.
55
You need to stand up for yourself,
56
confront people and never let anyone think it's okay to walk all over you.
57
You either eliminate them completely from your life or you limit your interactions with them or you draw some strict boundaries.
58
Don't ever let anyone mess with you.
59
There's this one harsh truth that you need to accept.
60
And that is no one is going to truly think for you.
61
everyone is thinking about themselves even people who always say they
62
want the best for you the best for you in their
63
mind has to be the best for them first you know
64
what i'm saying many people are just imposing their own beliefs about what's good for you on you
65
or convincing you to do the things that will eventually benefit them so basically everyone is thinking for themselves and Hey,
66
you should too.
67
Be a little selfish.
68
Especially if you're a woman,
69
you need to be 10 times more selfish
70
because there are thousands of ways other people and the society can take advantage of your softness,
71
your kindness, your femininity and your selflessness.
72
If you don't prioritize yourself,
73
you will never be someone's priority.
74
I'm sorry.
75
This is the real world.
76
It's not like you sacrifice your energy,
77
your health, your time, your beauty for someone and they are going to reciprocate.
78
No, not gonna happen.
79
I mean you can easily see this in your life.
80
Look around you, look at people and especially women who sacrifice themselves for others.
81
Are they happy?
82
Are they loved?
83
Are they cherished?
84
Or are they the first ones to be taken advantage of?
85
Or are they the first ones to be blamed when something goes wrong?
86
Or are they the ones who feel exhausted and depressed at the end of the day?
87
Always put yourself first.
88
And this is not selfish.
89
Only when you love yourself can you love someone else.
90
If you are lucky enough to have a connection,
91
whether a friendship or a romantic relationship with someone who has a firm foundation of self-love and self-accountability,
92
like authentic, healthy self-love, you will feel a huge difference.
93
They are caring, gentle, emotionally mature and respectful.
94
They will be there for you when you need them,
95
but they will also give you the space to do your own things and the freedom to make your own decisions.
96
Like when you love yourself,
97
first of all, you also have a rich and fulfilling life that makes you feel truly happy on your own, right?
98
Then you won't be emotionally dependent on anyone else.
99
And secondly, you will encourage others to love and take good care of themselves.
100
You will be like a source of inspiration and positivity.
101
But if you don't love yourself,
102
the love you give to others will be very toxic because it's controlling,
103
it's obsessive and it's desperate.
104
I just don't understand how can you love someone else when there's no love here for yourself?
105
It's impossible.
106
This leads me to the next point.
107
ever trust people who don't love themselves.
108
This is especially important when you first meet someone new,
109
like when you go on a first date or when you meet a new friend,
110
you need to observe and ask them about the way they take care of themselves.
111
Are they taking good care of their physical health?
112
Are they physically active?
113
Do they enjoy food that is good for their body or do they eat junk food all the time?
114
Are they in touch with their emotions?
115
Do they have the habit of observing
116
and trying to understand their emotions instead of you know acting on them impulsively
117
or blaming others for their feelings all the time and also pay attention to the way they talk about themselves
118
if they talk about themselves with a mean
119
and indifferent voice don't expect them to treat you well because
120
if they don't even respect and value themselves how can they do the same thing for someone else.
121
And well, I think that self-love does not mean forcing or manipulating others to change themselves and sacrifice themselves for you.
122
That's not self-love.
123
So if you see someone who has the tendency to do these things or to express self-love in these ways,
124
it's a red flag and you should run away.
125
I think people who love themselves in a truly selfish way,
126
like, you know, belittering others needs and expecting others to sacrifice for them actually have a lot of self-hatred.
127
They hate themselves and they cannot make themselves happy
128
so they force others to do that for them and then play the victim when they don't get what they want.
129
True self-love means you know what you need
130
and you walk away the moment you realize the other person is not what you need
131
so you don't force people to change,
132
you don't waste your time manipulating anyone, you just walk away.
133
So yeah, if you are meeting someone new,
134
make sure to observe whether they love and take care of themselves in a healthy way.
135
Because the way they treat themselves is also the way they treat others.
136
It's always the same thing.
137
To give you a small tip,
138
you can tell whether a person loves or hates themselves by listening to how they talk about others.
139
You know, whenever I go on social media and see a hate comment,
140
I am always so curious because like...
141
how judgmental, mean and cruel must this person be to themselves in order for them to be this judgmental,
142
mean and cruel to another human being?
143
I mean if you have a kind,
144
loving, understanding inner voice, there's no way you can talk to someone else with such a cold-hearted attitude.
145
Whenever I communicate with others,
146
I am very careful with my word choice because I know
147
that words carry power and they can lift someone up or push someone down to the darkest place.
148
This is because I communicate with myself very kindly.
149
I never say anything or think anything negative about myself.
150
So that's why I don't say or think the same thing about others.
151
That's why when I see a mean comment under my videos,
152
there are not many though,
153
I don't get offended or hurt
154
but I just I just feel bad for the person who left
155
that comment and you need to remember this next time when someone says something hateful,
156
judgmental or disrespectful towards you besides standing up for yourself if needed just feel bad for that person.
157
It's not your problem, it's their problem.
158
They must have such a poor self-image and self-concept.
159
They must hate themselves so much to have such evil thoughts about someone else let alone say them out loud.
160
They are suffering a lot internally.
161
When you remember this, you won't take anything personally and you won't be easily hurt by all those words anymore.
162
You need to like yourself so much that it doesn't matter whether other people like you or not.
163
This is probably the biggest transformation that I myself have experienced.
164
I used to be a very insecure person.
165
I cared way too much about what other people thought about me
166
and I needed external validation like whenever I said something I wanted others to agree with me
167
or have the same opinion as me.
168
Whenever someone was not happy with something I said
169
or did I thought about it for days
170
and the only times I felt proud of myself were when someone gave me compliments and recognition.
171
But then I was fortunate enough to be given many chances to develop a strong connection with myself
172
and it got stronger and stronger
173
and stronger to a point where I no longer care about what other people think about me.
174
I mean, if they agree with me, okay.
175
If they disagree with me, fine.
176
If they like me, alright.
177
If they don't like me, no big deal.
178
I like myself.
179
I like myself
180
and that's all I need do you know what I want
181
to recommend to you you need to create a list of all the things that you love about yourself
182
now if I ask you to list five things just five things
183
that you love the most about yourself can you do it
184
right away it seems to be such a simple thing
185
but a lot of people don't even know what they love about themselves they don't even know all the special
186
and wonderful qualities that they have and it's
187
so sad to see like in the English lessons I design
188
and teach I include many discussions and questions
189
that can help develop a better sense of self-understanding and self-love
190
but whenever i ask my students the question what is your
191
best quality none of them can answer at least not right away they get very bewildered
192
because they've never thought about it before you know
193
when you enter a relationship right one of the things you
194
like to do is ask your partner what they love the most about you with the expectation
195
that they will list out dozens of of things that you've ignored.
196
Why do you need someone else to do that?
197
Why aren't you the first person to recognize your beauty and acknowledge your abilities?
198
You need to know yourself so well.
199
You need to establish this firm,
200
indestructible foundation of self-understanding and self-appreciation so
201
that no one can tell you who you should be or control how you should feel about yourself.
202
Loving yourself means you never stop working on yourself.
203
And the things that you work on don't have to be the same things
204
that other people and society expects you to work on.
205
It can be something that you personally find fulfilling and enjoyable.
206
It doesn't have to follow any trends or societal expectations.
207
You just do the things that you personally enjoy that will benefit you in all aspects,
208
physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
209
I think self-love is like a combination of self-acceptance, self-care, and self-discipline.
210
Discipline in yourself is also a crucial part that can create more balance
211
and stability in your life and this can benefit you tremendously in the long run.
212
It's like you love yourself across all timelines so you forgive and appreciate your past self, right?
213
You accept your present self and you prioritize your future self's needs
214
and all of your actions will benefit you in all timelines.
215
So it's not self-indulgence, it's not about seeking short-term pleasures
216
but It is about knowing what you truly need and making a consistent effort to bring it to yourself.
217
True self-love means you love yourself unconditionally.
218
You love yourself on both good and bad days.
219
You love yourself when you are winning and losing.
220
You love yourself at your best and at your worst.
221
You know, it's easy to love yourself when you are successful,
222
happy, healthy, productive, optimistic.
223
But it's the love that you give yourself in the darkest,
224
lowest points that will truly make you feel safe and secure in your own presence.
225
I myself went through bad days on which I was not at my best at all.
226
I lay in bed all day.
227
I crashed out and acted impulsively.
228
I watched all the negative thoughts that were lingering in my head for days.
229
And I still loved myself regardless.
230
Whenever I looked at myself in the mirror and even when I looked like a mess,
231
I didn't criticize myself.
232
I just said, okay, Haing is going through a hard time right now.
233
She needs a break.
234
She needs to express her emotions.
235
She needs some rest.
236
But she's still my number one girl and she'll feel better soon.
237
I watched myself pulling through those hard days with loving eyes and I didn't even say one negative thing about myself.
238
I just tried to understand the reasons behind my emotions and my behaviors and gave myself what I truly needed.
239
no judgment no criticism no disappointment just pure love and care
240
and thanks to this i usually get back on my feet very quickly i know
241
that a lot of things can happen in the past
242
that make you feel worthy and valuable only when you achieve something
243
or when you do something well
244
but we are human beings we're not supposed to be brilliant and productive all the time you will make mistakes
245
you will mess things up,
246
you will be lazy, you will lose motivation,
247
you will fumble, you will fail and it's okay.
248
I think a big part of self-love is learning to be your own good parent.
249
And parenting yourself does not just mean disciplining yourself,
250
but it's also about allowing yourself to have the time and space to rest,
251
forgiving yourself and treating yourself well, even on hard days.
252
Okay, that's everything that I want to share in today's video.
253
To be honest, I actually procrastinated on making this video for so long for some reason.
254
But finally it's here and I feel so happy and fulfilled right now after sharing everything that's been on my mind.
255
I really hope that you find what you need to hear in this video.
256
Remember to love yourself and choose yourself every day.
257
Because when you do that,
258
everything and everyone will also love you and choose you.
259
Thanks for watching.
260
I'll see you again soon.
261
Bye!

Когда вы практикуете речь, вы не только запоминаете слова, но и учитесь связывать их с контекстом. Это, в свою очередь, помогает улучшить произношение английского и ваше общее понимание языка. Используя shadow speak, вы сможете тренировать свою интонацию и ударение, что делает вашу речь более естественной и понятной.
Грамматика и выражения в контексте
В данном видео собраны интересные грамматические структуры и фразы, которые помогут вам в разговорном английском:
- “Is this benefiting me?” – Использование вопросов для анализа ситуации важно в любом языке. В английском это помогает вам лучше структурировать мысли.
- “They will guilt trip you” – Фраза “guilt trip” показывает, как кто-то может манипулировать чувством вины, что также полезно знать в контексте общения.
- “You need to see through them” – Эта структура полезна для формирования мнений и критического мышления на английском языке.
Эти выражения являются основополагающими для уверенного общения и помогать вам учить английский с YouTube гораздо эффективнее.
Распространенные ловушки произношения
В видео имеются слова и акценты, которые могут быть сложными для произношения. Например, слово “selfish” может звучать не так, как написано. Также важно обращать внимание на интонацию в таких фразах, как “choose yourself” и “call them out.” Это поможет вам избавиться от акцента и улучшить произношение английского.
При практическом использовании shadowing site вы сможете делать записи и сравнивать свое произношение с оригинальным. Вы заметите, как мелкие оттенки произношения влияют на понимание, что является ключевым для успешного общения.
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.
