ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: Are you disappointed in yourself? |🎧 Podcast and Chill | Beginner

Hey, everyone.

Welcome back to another episode of Podcast and Chill, our beloved listeners.

I'm your host, Leo, the guy who can teach you something while making you laugh.

And I'm Gwen, your informative host, here to help you get useful information.

And yeah, don't forget to focus on our sharings.

Not just your jokes, Leo.

Got it, got it.

Just ask our listeners.

I always share useful tips, right?

Okay, I trust you.

Yeah, I won't make you feel disappointed.

No need to be that serious.

Making others feel disappointed is not a big deal.

Oh, you're absolutely right.

It's also the topic we will share today.

Dear our listeners, you can pause the video, close your eyes, and answer the following questions.

Do you think negative thinking is good or bad?

Do you feel bad when you are disappointed in yourself?

And do you want to overcome that feeling?

Can I answer these questions?

Oh, Leo, that's for our listeners.

Anyway, fine.

I believe our beloved listeners also want to hear your answers.

Before being happy like I am now, I always worried about saying something people wouldn't like.

And because of that, I also ended up disappointing myself.

And now, I've overcome that feeling.

so I'm really excited to share with my audience.

I understand you, Leo.

Dear listeners, if you've ever had a feeling like Leo, being sad because things didn't go as planned, or because you don't meet people's needs, this episode is for you.

Today we're talking about something that many people feel but don't talk about much, being disappointed in yourself.

That's right.

Disappointment can feel overwhelming, but the good news is it's something we can work through together.

We've prepared a special free PDF for this episode, full of useful phrases for your learning.

Don't forget to check it out.

Let's start.

First, let's talk about why it's completely fine to feel disappointed.

Have you ever noticed how fast we tend to judge ourselves when we experience negative emotions?

We often think things like, I shouldn't feel this way.

or there must be something wrong with me.

But the truth is, feeling disappointed is a normal part of being human.

Exactly.

In fact, research from the University of California shows that almost 70% of people regularly experience self-doubt.

It's a normal part of life.

Instead of trying to push these feelings away, the key is to accept them and remind ourselves that it's okay to feel the way we do.

Leo, can you take an example for listeners to understand?

Sure.

Let's say you applied for a job but didn't get it.

It's totally natural to feel disappointed.

Instead of thinking, I'm such a failure, try telling yourself, It's okay to feel sad about this.

I put in the effort, and it's normal to feel upset.

Let's practice that phrase together.

Repeat after me.

It's okay to feel this way.

I'm allowed to feel disappointed.

Great.

Remember, feelings aren't good or bad, they just are.

What matters is how we respond to them.

Now that we've accepted how we feel, let's go a bit deeper.

Ask yourself, why am I feeling disappointed?

Understanding the real reason behind our feelings can make a big difference.

That's really important.

Disappointment often comes from things like setting goals that are too high, comparing ourselves to others, or being afraid of failing.

When we figure out what's really causing the disappointment, we can start to work on it.

For example, let's say you worked hard on a presentation, but it didn't go as well as you hoped.

Instead of saying, I'm terrible at this, ask yourself, what could I have done differently?

Did I practice enough or was I too nervous?

Writing things down can help too.

Dr. James Pennebaker, a psychologist at the University of Texas, suggests that journaling about your feelings can help you process them better.

Try this.

Take a notebook and write down, what am I feeling right now and why?

Let's try writing.

It is good for a lot of issues in our life.

So that's how you help yourself get over your disappointment?

It doesn't help at all.

Hey.

Just joking.

It doesn't help at all if you just write without thinking about yourself.

You're free to write anything, as long as it's related to you.

It could be about study or work problems or some mental problems that we might face.

I agree.

It takes time to reflect.

It means to think about things you have done.

But you know, it's really worth it.

The more we understand our emotions, the better control we have over them.

Can I ask you a question, Gwen?

Yeah, why not?

Have you ever set a goal for yourself, and when you didn't achieve it exactly how you wanted, you felt like quitting?

Oh, I've been there many times.

When I don't get into the school I want, or I keep looking but never get called in for an interview, that's when I feel the most frustrated.

Trying to be perfect can really trap us.

Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar, a professor at Harvard who teaches about happiness, says that trying to be perfect only causes stress and frustration.

Instead of aiming for perfection, he recommends aiming for good enough.

What matters more is making progress than being perfect.

But don't get me wrong.

What I mean is not about just being enough, not wanting to develop more.

It's about trying with a suitable goal.

Think about how a baby learns to walk.

They stumble, fall, and get back up, right?

We don't expect them to walk perfectly right away, do we?

100

So why do we expect ourselves to be perfect all the time?

101

Remember, it's all about progress, not perfection.

102

Every step forward, even if it's small, is what helps us improve and grow.

103

Letting go of perfection gives us the freedom to keep going, no matter what.

104

Let's take a break and learn some new phrases today.

105

You can take your own example on each phrase to understand it more.

106

push something away.

107

Try to avoid or ignore something.

108

Example, it's not healthy to push your feelings away when you feel sad.

Definition, to directly deal with a situation or issue.

111

Example, instead of avoiding the problem, face it and try to solve it.

Definition, to understand or solve something.

114

Example, we need to figure out why the project is not going well.

122

Type your answer in the comment section to discuss with other listeners.

123

What's a better way to deal with disappointment?

124

Accept the feeling and remind yourself that it's okay to feel that way.

125

How can writing things down help you deal with your emotions?

126

Writing things down helps you process and understand your feelings.

127

Now we will learn more ways to have a positive thinking.

128

Let's shift gears and talk about something positive, celebrating small wins.

129

When was the last time you praised yourself for even a little achievement?

130

It could be something simple, but it still counts.

131

That's such an important point.

132

So often we overlook our small successes and only focus on big achievements.

133

The truth is, even small wins can actually boost our motivation and happiness.

134

It's a great way to remind yourself that you're moving forward, even if it doesn't always feel like it.

135

Every small win is proof that you're on the right track.

136

Absolutely.

137

For example, maybe you learned five new words in English today.

138

That's a win.

139

It doesn't matter how small it seems, it's progress.

140

Or perhaps you completed a task at work that had been on your to-do list for days.

141

Maybe you helped a friend with something, or even just took time for yourself to relax and recharge.

142

These moments matter.

143

They're part of your journey, and they deserve recognition.

144

Imagine this.

145

You've just made a mistake, and the first thought that pops into your head is, well, that's it.

146

I'll never recover from this.

147

Sound familiar?

148

It's easy to feel that way, but here's a secret.

149

Mistakes aren't the end.

150

They're just the beginning of a new lesson.

151

I read about Sarah Blakely, who started Spanx with no money and little business experience.

152

She made many mistakes, like struggling with manufacturers and marketing.

153

But instead of giving up, she learned from each mistake and became a self-made billionaire.

154

I can relate to that.

155

A while ago, I tried learning how to play the guitar.

156

My first few attempts were terrible.

157

I couldn't even play a simple song.

158

But instead of getting discouraged, I practiced every day, learned from my mistakes, and now I can play a few songs pretty well.

159

I'm still not perfect, but I'm much better than before.

160

Well, mistakes are like stepping stones that lead you to improvement.

161

Now, let's talk about something really important, being kind to yourself.

162

This is called self-compassion.

163

Think of it as treating yourself the way you would treat a close friend when they're feeling down.

164

Yeah, Dr. Kristin Neff, who researches self-compassion, explains that we need to be gentle with ourselves, especially in tough moments.

165

It's easy to be kind to others, but we often forget to treat ourselves with that same care.

166

Think about this.

167

If a friend came to you feeling down because of a mistake, you wouldn't say, You're awful at this.

168

You'd say something like, It's okay.

169

Everyone makes mistakes.

170

You're doing your best.

171

Let's try that together.

172

Next time you feel down, say to yourself, I'm doing my best and that's enough.

173

Ready?

174

Let's repeat it.

175

Well done.

176

Being kind to yourself doesn't just lift your mood.

177

it also gives you the strength to try again and keep going.

178

Last but not least, we'll talk about finding motivation.

179

After feeling disappointed, it can be hard to start again.

180

You can also talk to a friend or someone you trust.

181

Sharing your feelings can help you feel lighter and more hopeful.

182

Great.

183

Remember, every step forward, no matter how small, brings you closer to your goal.

184

We will learn the last five phrases for today.

185

Make sure to practice speaking all of them.

186

Stepping Stone Definition A step towards progress Example Each project is a stepping stone in your career.

187

Lift someone's mood Definition Make someone feel happier Example A compliment can lift your mood instantly Step forward.

203

Just share your thoughts with us in the comment section.
