Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,
2
where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
Hey Emily, it is so great to be here with you today.
5
And I am very happy to see all our wonderful friends watching us.
6
I am so excited too, Paul.
7
Today we have a very special topic that can change everything for our listeners.
8
Oh really?
9
A topic that can change everything?
10
Now I am very curious, Emily.
11
What is it?
12
We are talking about how to rewrite your mindset and rewrite your life.
13
It is all about the power of our thoughts.
14
Wow, that is beautiful.
15
You know, a famous book by a doctor named Carol Dweck talks about this.
16
She says we have two types of mindsets.
17
Two types of mindsets?
18
Can you tell us more about that, Paul?
19
I love learning about how our brains work.
20
Yes, there is a fixed mindset and there is a growth mindset.
21
People with a fixed mindset think they cannot change their abilities.
22
Oh, I see.
23
So if they fail a test,
24
they think, I'm not smart,
25
and they just want to give up.
26
That is very sad.
27
Exactly.
28
But people with a growth mindset think differently.
29
They believe they can always learn,
30
improve, and grow with hard work.
31
I love that.
32
It reminds me of a beautiful truth,
33
that our minds are a gift,
34
and we can renew them every single day.
35
Yes, Emily, absolutely.
36
When we change our thoughts, our whole world changes.
37
It's like opening a window to let the beautiful sun shine inside.
38
That is a lovely image, Paul.
39
In English, we have a very simple and powerful word for a growth mindset.
40
The word is yet.
41
Yet?
42
Just that tiny word?
43
How can a small word change our mindset, Emily?
44
It's like magic, Paul.
45
For example, Instead of saying,
46
I can't speak English, you say,
47
I can't speak English yet.
48
Ah, that is brilliant.
49
I can't do it yet means you are going to learn and do it in the future.
50
Yes, exactly.
51
It gives you hope and motivation.
52
It changes a negative thought into a very positive situation.
53
That is so true.
54
You know, there's another very famous writer named James Clear who wrote a book about tiny habits.
55
Oh, I know that book.
56
He says that small changes every day can create huge results in our lives, right?
57
Yes.
58
He says if you improve just 1% every day,
59
you will be 37 times better after one year.
60
Wow!
61
37 times better?
62
That is incredible, Paul.
63
It shows that we don't need to change everything in one big day.
64
No, not at all.
65
We just need to take small,
66
faithful steps every single day and trust the journey.
67
So, Paul, how can we use this when we learn English?
68
Can you give us a real-life example?
69
Well, imagine you are practicing listening.
70
Instead of saying, this is too fast,
71
I don't understand, you can change your words.
72
Oh, what can we say instead to keep our mindset positive and growing?
73
You can say, this is a good challenge for my ears,
74
and I'm learning new sounds today.
75
See the difference?
76
Wow, yes.
77
The first version makes you feel stressed,
78
but the second version makes you feel like a champion.
79
Exactly.
80
We have to talk to ourselves like we are talking to a dear friend.
81
We must be kind to ourselves.
82
That is a very Christian way to live too, Paul to love ourselves,
83
be patient with our mistakes,
84
and always move forward with grace.
85
Beautifully said, Emily.
86
Mistakes are not bad.
87
In fact, mistakes are just proofs that you are trying.
88
Yes.
89
Let's talk about how to say these things in English.
90
What are some different ways to express a change in our thoughts?
91
Good idea.
92
For example, in an informal way with friends,
93
you can say, I changed my mind.
94
Yes, I changed my mind is perfect when you choose the different option.
95
Like, I changed my mind.
96
I want tea instead of coffee.
97
But what if we are at work or in a formal situation, Emily?
98
What can we say then?
99
In a formal situation, you can say,
100
I have reconsidered my position.
101
It sounds very professional.
102
Ha ha!
103
I have reconsidered my position.
104
Wow.
105
I feel very fancy and smart just saying that.
106
You are fancy, Paul.
107
Let's use it in a sentence.
108
After looking at the data,
109
I have reconsidered my position on the project.
110
That is excellent.
111
So, we have, I changed my mind for casual days,
112
and I have reconsidered my position for serious business.
113
Yes, exactly.
114
Another great phrase for a new mindset is to look on the bright side.
115
Have you heard that one, Paul?
116
Oh, I love that expression.
117
To look on the bright side.
118
It means to find the positive thing in a bad situation, right?
119
Yes.
120
For example, if it is raining outside,
121
you can look on the bright side and say,
122
well, at least my garden is getting water.
123
Hmm, that is a great way to live.
124
It's all about gratitude.
125
When we are thankful, fear and negativity disappear.
126
Yes, gratitude rewrites our mindset instantly.
127
It's like a superpower for our emotions.
128
But sometimes, Emily, it is hard.
129
Sometimes we have a very bad day and our thoughts are very negative and loud.
130
I understand, Paul.
131
We all have those moments.
132
When that happens, I like to use a phrase called to pause and reflect.
133
To pause and reflect.
134
That sounds very peaceful.
135
How do you do that when you are stressed?
136
Well, I stop talking, I take a deep breath,
137
and I remember all the good things that God has given me.
138
That is a perfect strategy.
139
It helps us control our thoughts instead of letting our thoughts control us.
140
Yes, exactly.
141
If you are enjoying this conversation,
142
don't forget to like the video,
143
subscribe to the channel, and share it with a friend who is learning English.
144
And if you are still listening, comment mindset below.
145
We love reading your comments and seeing your progress.
146
Yes, we do.
147
Your comments always bring a big smile to our faces.
148
Now, Paul, let's talk about another practical phrase.
149
Oh, what phrase is that, Emily?
150
I am ready to learn.
151
The phrase is, to shift your focus.
152
It is very common when people talk about success and motivation.
153
Ah, to shift your focus.
154
That means to change what you are looking at or what you are thinking about.
155
Yes.
156
For example, if you are worried about the future,
157
you can shift your focus to the present moment.
158
That is so important.
159
In the present moment, we can actually do something.
160
We can study.
161
We can smile.
162
We can help someone.
163
Exactly.
164
You can tell your friend,
165
don't worry about the mistakes.
166
Just shift your focus to your next step.
167
That is beautiful advice.
168
I'm going to write that down.
169
Shift your focus to your next step.
170
Good job, Paul.
171
You are always a great student.
172
You have a true growth mindset.
173
Thank you, Emily.
174
I try my best every day.
175
You know, learning a language is the perfect way to practice this.
176
Why do you say that, Paul?
177
How does language learning help our mindset?
178
Because when you learn a language,
179
you must become like a little child again.
180
You have to make mistakes to learn.
181
Oh, that can be very hard for adults.
182
Adults hate looking silly or making mistakes in front of other people.
183
Yes, but that is the secret.
184
If you rewrite your mindset, you don't feel silly.
185
You feel excited because every mistake is a lesson.
186
Wow, Paul, that is profound.
187
It requires humility, but it brings so much freedom and joy.
188
Exactly.
189
It is a beautiful adventure.
190
You are not just learning words,
191
you are growing your soul.
192
I love that so much.
193
Let's look at another comparison of phrases we can use when we talk about changing our lives.
194
Okay.
195
What phrases do you have for us now, Emily?
196
Well, you can say, I want to start over.
197
That is a very common,
198
natural way to say you want a clean page.
199
Oh, I want to start over is very clear.
200
Like, my drawing is bad,
201
I want to start over on a new paper.
202
Yes, but if you want to sound a bit more formal or poetic,
203
you can say, I want to turn over a new leaf.
204
To turn over a new leaf?
205
Wow, that sounds like a story about a beautiful tree in the spring.
206
What does it mean?
207
It means to change your behavior and become a better person.
208
It is about a fresh, positive start in life.
209
Oh, I see.
210
So I can say, after the new year,
211
Paul decided to turn over a new leaf and exercise every morning.
212
Yes, exactly.
213
That is a perfect example, Paul.
214
See how rich English is when we look at these variations?
215
It is wonderful.
216
It gives us so many colors to paint our thoughts with.
217
Look at you, Paul.
218
You are being very poetic today.
219
I like this inspired version of you.
220
Thank you.
221
I think our topic today is inspiring me.
222
Changing our mindset makes us see the beauty in everything.
223
It really does.
224
When we focus on good things,
225
pure things, and lovely things,
226
our hearts become so full of peace.
227
You know, Emily, sometimes people think that changing your mindset means you can never feel sad.
228
Is that true?
229
Oh, no, not at all.
230
Feeling sad is a normal part of being human.
231
Having a good mindset doesn't mean hiding your tears.
232
Then what does it mean when a person with a good mindset feels sad or disappointed?
233
It means they accept the sadness,
234
but they do not stay there forever.
235
They know that a new day will come, and hope will return.
236
Ah, yes.
237
It is like a storm.
238
The storm comes, but we know the sun is still behind the dark clouds.
239
Yes, that is exactly it.
240
We can say, I am going through a tough time,
241
but I know things will get better.
242
That is a very strong and hopeful sentence.
243
It shows resilience.
244
Resilience is a great word, too.
245
Resilience is an amazing word.
246
Can you explain what resilience means for our beginner friends, Paul?
247
Sure.
248
Resilience is the ability to bounce back like a rubber ball.
249
When you drop it, it goes right back up.
250
I love that definition.
251
A resilient person falls down,
252
but they bounce back up with a smile.
253
Exactly.
254
And our listeners are very resilient,
255
because learning a new language takes a lot of bouncing back.
256
Yes, it does.
257
You are all doing an amazing job.
258
Every time you listen to us,
259
you are building your resilience.
260
Absolutely.
261
Every minute you spend studying is an investment in your beautiful future.
262
Paul, let's play a small game to practice.
263
I will say a negative phrase,
264
and you rewrite it into a positive mindset phrase.
265
Are you ready?
266
Oh, a game.
267
Yes, I love games.
268
I am totally ready, Emily.
269
Hit me with the first phrase.
270
Okay.
271
Here is the first one.
272
I am terrible at public speaking.
273
I always get too nervous.
274
Hmm.
275
Let me rewrite that.
276
I can say, public speaking is an opportunity for me to share my ideas,
277
and I am learning to manage my energy.
278
Wow!
279
That was incredible, Paul.
280
You transformed a scary thing into a wonderful opportunity.
281
Thank you.
282
It feels much better to say it that way.
283
Give me another one, Emily.
284
Okay, try this one.
285
I don't have enough time to exercise.
286
My life is too busy.
287
Ah, the classic time excuse.
288
I can rewrite it like this.
289
I can find 10 minutes today to take care of my health because my body is important.
290
Yes, exactly.
291
10 minutes is small, but it is a perfect start.
292
You see, friends, it is all about how we tell our story.
293
Yes.
294
The words we use inside our heads are the most important words we hear all day long.
295
That is so true.
296
Paul, do you have any specific habits in the morning that help you set a good mindset for the day?
297
Yes, I do.
298
Before I look at my phone or computer,
299
I sit quietly for five minutes.
300
I say thank you for three specific things.
301
Oh, that is a beautiful routine.
302
What kind of things do you say thank you for?
303
Simple things, like a warm cup of coffee,
304
the sound of the birds outside,
305
or a good night of sleep.
306
That is lovely.
307
It starts the day with abundance instead of starting the day with stress or rush.
308
Yes.
309
And what about you, Emily?
310
Do you have a morning ritual to rewrite your mindset?
311
I do.
312
I like to look in the mirror and say a positive declaration,
313
like, today is going to be a productive and joyful day.
314
Really?
315
Does saying it out loud help?
316
Why do you do that, Emily?
317
Yes, it helps a lot.
318
Hearing your own voice say something positive sends a strong message to your brain wow i should try
319
that tomorrow morning i will look in the mirror
320
and say paul you are going to be awesome today yes please do
321
that paul and you can say it with a big happy smile too
322
i will it might feel a little funny at first
323
but i know it works for the mindset it is okay to feel funny.
324
Sometimes we need to laugh at ourselves to keep life light and joyful.
325
Absolutely.
326
A good laugh is like medicine for the soul.
327
It makes all our problems feel much smaller.
328
Let's think about how our friends can apply this tonight before they go to sleep.
329
What can they do?
330
Before going to sleep, they can think about one good thing that happened today,
331
just one small victory.
332
Yes!
333
Even if the day was difficult,
334
there is always at least one small good thing,
335
like a nice conversation with a friend.
336
Or like finishing this podcast episode.
337
That is a big victory for their English studies.
338
Yes, exactly.
339
You are filling your mind with good English vocabulary and positive thoughts at the same time.
340
That is what we call a win-win situation.
341
You win with your English and you win with your life.
342
Win-win situation.
343
That is a perfect idiom for today, Paul.
344
Thank you.
345
I love using idioms when they fit the moment perfectly.
346
Before we finish, Paul, can we review the main phrases we learned today for our friends to remember?
347
Of course.
348
We learned to change your mind for casual situations and to reconsider your position for formal moments.
349
We also learned to look on the bright side when things are hard and to shift your focus to change our thoughts.
350
And my favorites, the tiny word yet and the beautiful idiom to turn over a new leaf for a fresh start.
351
Those are fantastic tools for your vocabulary and your life, everyone.
352
Use them this week.
353
Yes, practice them, speak them out loud,
354
and watch your mindset rewrite your world.
355
Well, everyone, that is all for today's episode.

Почему стоит практиковать разговор с этим видео?
Практика говорения, основанная на видео, как это, представляет собой отличный способ развить уверенность и улучшить произношение. Важно понимать, что язык не просто набор слов и грамматических правил. Это живая форма общения. Слушая разговоры в контексте, подобном этому, вы можете не только улучшить свое произношение, но и научиться выражать свои мысли более естественно.
Используя метод shadow speech, вы повторяете за спикером, что помогает закрепить новые фразы и выражения. Путем shadowing английский способ, вы сможете быстрее освоить разговорный английский, подражая интонациям и эмоциям, выражаемым говорящими. Это особенно полезно для начинающих, так как помогает развивать слух и понимание языка в контексте.
Грамматика и выражения в контексте
В этом видео поднимаются важные моменты, которые можно разбирать по частям.
- Fixed mindset и growth mindset: Эти термины помогают понять, как наши убеждения влияют на обучение. Использование "yet" в качестве окончания фразы демонстрирует изменение в отношении к процессу обучения.
- Фраза “I can’t speak English yet”: Это выражение иллюстрирует позитивный подход к изучению языка, подчеркивая, что возможности в будущем неограниченны.
- Употребление вопросительных предложений: Спикеры используют вопросы, чтобы вовлечь слушателя и сформировать диалог. Это ключевой элемент в практическом владении языком.
Общие ловушки произношения
В разговорной речи могут встречаться слова и выражения, которые часто вызывают трудности у изучающих язык. Например:
- “mindset”: Обратите внимание на произношение, часто можно услышать неправильное ударение.
- “improve”: Стоит сосредоточиться на правильной артикуляции этого слова.
- Используйте метод shadow speak для тренировок; следуя за произношением спикера, вы сможете избежать распространенных ошибок.
Запоминайте правильное произношение и интонации, слушая видео и повторяя за ними. Учить английский с YouTube становится еще более увлекательным и эффективным, когда вы сможете обыгрывать разговоры в реальном времени, что поможет вам уверенно общаться на любом уровне!
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.
