Talk about goals today, goals, goals.

Goals are tricky.

They're a little bit tricky.

So, you know, there are a lot of opinions out there about how to make goals.

And, you know, there's kind of a general, what we call conventional wisdom.

Conventional wisdom.

It means common sense.

It's what most people think about making goals.

You'll hear kind of the same advice all the time about how to make a goal.

But I think the conventional wisdom, I think the common sense ideas,

the common ideas about goals, are missing some things.

The advice is not great.

It's okay, but it's not great.

And so I think goals are a little more complicated,

in some ways a little more dangerous, than most people understand.

So we have to think carefully about how to make a goal, how to think about the goals,

what mindset to have, etc. Because if we do it wrong, if you do it wrong, if you make goals in a wrong way,

meaning not skillful, it can actually hurt your motivation.

You know, a goal, if you do a goal, make a goal badly, the goal will actually hurt your motivation.

It will make you less motivated.

It will make you less likely to succeed.

So this is why it's important.

because we have to do our goal setting in a way

that makes us more motivated because that's what goals are for, right?

The idea of having a goal is it motivates us to improve in some way to get better.

So if the goal does not do that, if the goal makes you feel less powerful, less confident, less motivated, it's a bad goal.

It's done badly.

So we'll talk about this in a little more detail.

Today we're live on Facebook today.

I decided to change that over to Facebook.

I do find the quality of the comments are better on Facebook.

People are more focused on the topic.

On YouTube, we get...

This is generally...

I find this in YouTube in general, not just my channel, but all around the internet.

The YouTube comments are just not quite as good.

The quality is just a little bit less.

People are more distracted, that kind of thing.

So I do like being on Facebook for that reason.

I don't like the company Facebook, but I do like our audience.

So welcome to all of you.

Let's talk about goals first.

I'm a little late today at the live show because my babies were late going to bed.

They stayed up late tonight.

So it took a little longer, so the show might be a little shorter today.

So let's just jump in really quickly.

Goals.

Okay, so there's a few mindsets about goals, right?

People always say, oh, you should have goals, goals they should be specific they should be measurable right

and that's fine that's fine that's decent advice okay you have

a very specific goal meaning you know exactly what you want to achieve

and you have maybe a specific date right

and you can measure the goal you did it or you did not do it

then you have things like the secret like the book the secret

which is quite popular and this The idea of the secret is that you, I mean, the main idea of the secret is you add a lot of emotion to your goal

so that you visualize it, you like, you see, you imagine the goal, you imagine you have achieved it already,

and you let yourself feel wonderful and feel great, imagining how wonderful it is to achieve the goal.

so this is the idea

oh and i hear baby is crying in the other room oh no do you need help in there

okay anyway so this is the idea of making goals

and you know this this this advice is okay it's not

bad one second i need to just do something really quickly here I've got a baby problem.

I just need to check on my baby.

Sorry, guys.

One second.

Everything okay?

It's all right?

Okay, guys.

All right.

I think it's okay.

okay um okay one more thing sorry about this

yeah i'm gonna ban this guy one second uh delete

and he's gone all right good okay just needed to ban somebody all right so goals

so the idea the secret people are they're imagining you got

to put all this emotion into it that's also nice it makes the goal more powerful

so fair enough So what is the problem?

The problem is this, that as I was discussing yesterday, sometimes if you have too much emotion about your goal,

too much emotion, that it actually can hurt you.

And the reason is this, is that you want it so much, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, that it can actually kind of take away your energy.

And the key thing is that it creates fear.

Fear.

Fear of what?

Fear of failure, fear of not achieving your goal.

This is demotivating, meaning it's the opposite of motivation.

That while it's good to have a lot of strong positive emotions, to get really excited about your goals,

sometimes this can turn into fear or it can take away too much of your energy.

Why?

100

A few reasons.

101

Number one, if you have a big goal, if you have a big goal and you're constantly thinking about it, dreaming about it, thinking about it, but it's far away, it's far,

102

far away, it's a big goal, so you need a lot of time.

103

Maybe you get excited for a few days, maybe you get excited for a few weeks, but then what happens after a month, after two months, after three months,

104

you can start to get a a little depressed, sometimes worried, sometimes afraid that you're never going to do it, right?

105

You're imagining, imagining, imagining the end, imagining the end, using the secret, oh, it's so great, it's so great,

106

but it actually starts to feel impossible because you're imagining something that's so totally different than your life now.

107

So this can actually hurt your motivation sometimes, because you start to realize, okay, this dream is very nice,

108

but it's nothing like my life now.

109

I'm so, so far away from it.

110

And by reminding yourself, by thinking about the end goal too much, with too much emotion, you can actually start to become a little depressed about it.

111

You can actually hurt you in that case.

112

I think the secret works better for shorter goals, goals that are closer, where you really can feel you're getting closer.

113

You really feel that it's possible.

114

And so when you think, ah, it's possible, then indeed, yes, you start to imagine it.

115

You feel the emotion of it, of the victory.

116

And this will make you more excited this will give you greater and greater motivation because you feel like, I can do it.

117

You have that confidence.

118

But when the secret hurts you, that technique of the secret, where it hurts you, where it's not effective, I think is when the goal is too,

119

too big, too, too far away.

120

When really inside, you really don't believe you can do it.

121

It seems so far.

122

And you might get excited a little bit, But then eventually what happens is you lose your motivation because you start to feel,

123

oh, this excitement, I want it, I want it, but right now I'm too far.

124

And you start to feel bad now, right?

125

You start to feel that something's wrong now.

126

And you're focusing too much on the end, too much on the end, and you're not enjoying right now.

127

You're not enjoying the process.

128

And that will destroy your motivation, especially for a large goal.

129

So again, let's give an example.

130

We'll use the marathon example because it's so easy.

131

It's such a clear example.

132

So imagine, okay, me, me right now.

133

I'm thin.

134

I'm in good shape.

135

Generally decent fitness.

136

Let's imagine I have a goal.

137

I'm going to do a marathon in six months.

138

Okay, if I use the secret, I imagine myself crossing the finish line, my arms in the air, feeling great. Will this help me?

139

Yeah, I will, because I feel very confident I can do it.

140

In six months, I definitely could do a marathon.

141

Okay, I have no doubt about it at all i mean i've done them before

142

and i'm i'm in pretty good shape a decent fitness level i could not do a marathon today

143

but i could do it in six months okay so

144

if i really got excited about it it would motivate me a lot

145

but on the other hand let's imagine my mom my mom

146

who is you know still very overweight who has never run

147

one mile in fact even walking one mile would be very

148

difficult for her she's in she's you know in her 70s she's overweight her whole life

149

terrible fitness level for her if she tried to use the secret of imagining a marathon

150

doing a marathon i don't think it would help her i think it would actually be the opposite

151

because she would feel it was impossible.

152

I think she would feel it was just terrible.

153

You know, like, I can't do it.

154

I can't do it.

155

There's no way.

156

This is impossible.

157

And so by imagining this marathon, I think she would be imagining it.

158

It would seem great.

159

But then she would wake up in the daytime and she feels like, oh, look at me.

160

Like, I'm never going to do this.

161

And it would actually cause her to hurt, to lose motivation.

162

And she would start to feel like I'm too far.

163

And she would stop focusing on now.

164

So you have to enjoy the process.

165

Like I enjoy running.

166

I enjoy exercising.

167

So training for a marathon sounds fun.

168

Every day would be enjoyable for me.

169

But for my mom, no. For my mom, it would be better for her to focus on a shorter

170

goal like just walking for an hour in the park

171

and focus on enjoying it and looking at the trees and not something huge like a marathon.

172

She might, maybe in her mind, she would, maybe someday I'll do a marathon.

173

But focusing on that, focusing on something too far away would not be helpful.

174

And it's kind of the same for you, of course, about English.

175

So, depends on your level.

176

If you are advanced already, you're very advanced, and you have a goal I want to be like near

177

native right you want to be very high mastery well

178

if you're advanced now already you can already understand movies

179

and TV you can read most books in English well that's a good goal for you

180

that would be a great goal

181

because you would feel it's possible it would motivate you to

182

do better right not be lazy keep improving your English on the other hand, for a beginner, someone starting with English,

183

just beginning, where English feels so, so difficult, it seems like such a big, difficult thing to do, just to speak English,

184

just to be basically fluent, feels like a lot.

185

For a beginner like that, I think it's a bad idea to want to think about becoming like a native,

186

even for some intermediate level.

187

That's most of you.

188

I think trying to become native, like a native speaker, it's a nice goal, you know, for the future.

189

But I think don't focus on that now because it will feel too far, too, too, too difficult.

190

And it actually can hurt your motivation.

191

Why?

192

Because each day you realize you're not close each day you wake up

193

and you're like oh

194

and you maybe you improve maybe your vocabulary is growing your fluency is much better you understand much more

195

but you don't enjoy your improvement why

196

because every day you say i'm still not native i'm still

197

not native i'm still not native you're focusing too much on this super super super super high goal

198

so it's killing your enjoyment now.

199

You're not noticing your improvement.

200

You're not noticing how wonderful your English is already.

201

In fact, I think it can be very motivating to instead focus backwards, focus on the past.

202

Focus on the past.

203

Think about two years ago, your English two years ago.

204

Think about it.

205

How good was your English two years ago?

206

You're listening, you're speaking, you're reading.

207

And then compare to now, and hopefully you have improved.

208

Some of you have improved a lot in two years maybe even three months ago three months ago you have improved

209

that's why we're doing this challenge this four month challenge

210

because the idea is you started last month

211

and you're making a big effort last month this month we

212

continue we continue until end of November at the end of November what will we do?

213

we're going to remember we're going to think back to August August 1st We're going to think back to August 1st,

214

and we're going to notice how much did we improve.

215

And I think all of us will improve.

216

And that's very motivating.

217

Then you feel like, yes, wow, I really have improved.

218

In four months, I improved a lot.

219

My listening is better.

220

Maybe my speaking is better.

221

My reading is better.

222

Maybe your writing is better, right?

223

And this is very, very motivating.

224

So sometimes, instead of looking forward at a big goal far away,

225

often it's helpful to look back and to realize you have already made improvements,

226

to notice and enjoy your improvements now.

227

Don't wait to be happy.

228

This is the point.

229

See, some goals are good.

230

They're fine.

231

But the problem is some people have an idea that,

232

oh, I cannot be happy until I reach my goal.

233

I will wait to be happy until I reach the goal.

234

I will wait to enjoy English until I am super perfect.

235

I will wait to be excited until I run a marathon or a double marathon.

236

And that's where, that's the problem.

237

We have to enjoy the whole, every step.

238

It's just like a journey, right?

239

It's just like a trip.

240

You don't, if you go to travel, maybe you want to travel around the world, you know, a big trip, one year, travel around the world.

241

You realize, right, it would be crazy, crazy to just focus on the last day of your trip.

242

Ah, I can't wait till the end of the trip, the last day.

243

That's my goal.

244

I'll finish the big trip.

245

Ah, then I'll be happy.

246

Of course, that's crazy because you want to enjoy every day of the trip.

247

Every day could be enjoyable.

248

Every day a new experience.

249

Every day you learn something.

250

the whole trip the whole journey that entire year could be magical

251

and wonderful well it's the same with learning it's the same with anything in life

252

that it's great to have the goal

253

but we have to remember enjoy each day each step enjoy your english level right now right now you're listening to me,

254

only in English, my podcast is usually 45 minutes, 50 minutes, an hour or more,

255

only English, and you are understanding, that's amazing.

256

Think, remember when you were a beginner.

257

Remember when you were a beginner.

258

This, today, what you are doing now, you probably thought, ah, that would be impossible.

259

Listen to an American talk for one hour only in English and understand most of it, right?

260

Sometime in your past, you thought that will be very tough.

261

That's impossible.

262

And now you're doing it right now.

263

So enjoy it, okay?

264

Enjoy it.

265

It's good.

266

Yes, you want to improve.

267

Yes, you want to get better.

268

But also enjoy now.

269

Enjoy and remember, you have already improved a lot.

270

Enjoy it.

271

You can read in English now.

272

You're doing our challenge.

273

You're listening.

274

You know, on our, I'll show our gab group.

275

On our gab group, you know, we have people who are listening to all kinds of cool things and they're understanding.

276

You know, like here, speaking, oh, this is Hindi, it's a little different.

277

But, you know, look at this, like Brave New World.

278

And, you know, people are reading Brave New World now and listening, of course, to my show about Brave New World.

279

And Julia Takeda is listening to an audio book by Brian Tracy, a motivational speaker about success.

280

You know, how cool is that?

281

It's all in English.

282

Asma is listening to Matthew McConaughey, an actor, some kind of talk.

283

I mean, just look at all these cool things.

284

Ibrahim Ali is listening or is reading while listening, so reading and listening to a Robert Kiyosaki book about education,

285

why A students work for C students. So cool.

286

And he's also reading another Robert Kiyosaki book and listening, sorry, Fake Money, Fake Teachers, which I want to read that book.

287

It sounds great.

288

And Lisa is listening to Jane Austen, right?

289

Famous British writer, Jane Austen.

290

Mansfield Park also has a nice movie, Mansfield Park.

291

Here's Carol.

292

She's listening to us, Steve Coffin and Matt vs. Japan, who I'll be interviewing Matt vs. Japan next week, which is cool.

293

she's listening to a few of his looks like she's doing a lot of Matt vs. Japan's YouTube videos,

294

which is great she's getting ready for my interview next week but look at this, it's all in English all these cool things I know people

295

are listening to Tony Robbins some of you are reading Tony

296

Robbins some of you watched Steve Kaufman yesterday had a live video also about language learning see,

297

this is it, you gotta enjoy it you gotta enjoy it now you're improving, but it's very important to enjoy it while you're improving.

298

Enjoy what you are doing now.

299

This is the problem with goals.

300

See, this is the weak point where I would say the danger, the possible danger of goals.

301

The possible danger of goals is you live in the future.

302

You live just imagining some perfect day in the future that might not come.

303

It might never come, right?

304

And you forget about now.

305

You forget to enjoy now.

306

You forget to love what you're doing now.

307

You forget to appreciate your success that you already have.

308

You forget gratitude, okay?

309

And that can hurt your motivation.

310

So, yes, have a goal, but my idea of goals, my way to do goals now is I'll make a goal, maybe a big goal, and I'll kind of,

311

it's in my mind, and then I push it aside and I kind of forget about it.

312

I kind of forget.

313

Like, I have a goal to be fluent in Japanese, okay?

314

But it's very big.

315

It's far away.

316

So I'm not going to think every day, fluent Japanese, fluent Japanese.

317

It'll just stress me out.

318

It's too far away.

319

So I have it in my mind.

320

I push it away.

321

And instead, I focus on today.

322

Today, I will do seven hours of Japanese.

323

Tomorrow, I will do seven hours of Japanese.

324

I'm focused just on our challenge.

325

It's just this four -month challenge.

326

That's all.

327

I'm just trying to...

328

I have a certain number of hours I want to do during our challenge.

329

So we have three more months, September, October, November.

330

So that's all.

331

I'm just focused on that only and just enjoying it and I'm improving and that's all.

332

Just focus on enjoying it, improving.

333

I've, you know, focused on finding some interesting things in Japanese that I can understand, which is not much, but I find some stuff.

334

And this is much better.

335

If I focused on being fluent, it would destroy my motivation and stress me out, get me really stressed.

336

If I focused on someone like Matt vs. Japan and his super high level, it would hurt my motivation.

337

Like, I'm never going to do that.

338

Maybe I will.

339

I don't know, but we'll see.

340

The point is, though, you got to really have your goal and then kind of your big goal,

341

push it away, and then focus closer to now and enjoy now.

342

And this works much better.

343

I find this works much, much better for goal setting.

344

This is a more effective, more powerful, more motivating way to use goals.

345

All right.

346

There you go.

347

Let's get into the comments.

348

Fernando says I just finished to read your book I think

349

it was amazing I'm confused in some areas well you can ask questions Fernando

350

I think I finally banned this guy just kept spamming the site ah Okay,

351

Rashid says, You're a great teacher, now I'm fluent in English.

352

I started to take English lessons for advanced level.

353

I applied your methods in learning Spanish.

354

They are valid for any language.

355

Thanks so much.

356

Yes, of course they are.

357

Of course, I'm a native speaker of English, so I only teach English, of course.

358

I'm not qualified to teach anything else.

359

But yes, the ideas, the principles are effective for any language.

360

I mean, we'll see when I interview Matt next week.

361

The principles, we agree.

362

I already know that the basic principles he used to learn Japanese are very similar to the ones

363

that I'm teaching you to learn English.

364

Steve Kaufman discusses similar principles.

365

You know, we're all influenced by Stephen Krashen and reality.

366

Pham says, hello from Pasol.

367

Hello to you.

368

Hello to Pasol, my friends in Vietnam.

369

okay

370

yeah like merrick says and america is saying this in a very you know kind of effective summary here.

371

Maintaining balance and motivation is very important.

372

I recently exaggerated my ambition to ride a bike and the goals I set myself for it.

373

And that's right.

374

I'm a little depressed now because I couldn't achieve my goals.

375

Yeah, it can happen.

376

There was a fear of failure and the excitement of riding turned into an obsession with realizing my plans.

377

Now I have to sort it out from the beginning, catch the mistakes I've made.

378

Yes, that's right.

379

That's a good example of what can happen

380

when you set the goal too big and you become crazy about it because then you stop enjoying what you're doing.

381

You're just so focused because the goal seems so huge.

382

You think you have to, ah, crazy.

383

You become kind of crazy about it and you kind of lose the enjoyment.

384

Instead, you're motivated by fear of failure.

385

And this kills your enjoyment.

386

And often then you do not achieve the goal and all you did was kind of kill the enjoyment.

387

So it's tricky.

388

It's tricky.

389

It's nice to dream big.

390

I love the idea of dreaming big, but we have to, I think it's also good, like I said, for the big,

391

big, big goals, I like to put them out there like as a possibility, but the ones I really focus on are shorter.

392

They're ones that I feel confident about achieving.

393

Like, am I confident about being fluent in Japanese right now?

394

I'm not, so I'm not going to focus on that.

395

It'll just make me crazy and stressed out.

396

Am I confident I can do 200 hours per month, September and then October and November?

397

Can I do 600 more hours before our challenge is finished?

398

Yes, that I know I can do.

399

So that's a good goal.

400

It motivates me.

401

I feel good about it.

402

And it's a little difficult.

403

It definitely pushes me it pushes me to you know work a little harder

404

but it's you know it's just hours i don't have it's not really performance

405

so i know i can do it so it's motivating

406

but motivating in a positive way makes me enjoy every day

407

and i'm not stressed about it so that goal works very well

408

that kind of goal helps

409

so like merrick had let's say he had i don't know what his goal for a bike but But maybe, you know, let's say you wanted to do some huge long -distance race or something.

410

So maybe instead, you can have that as maybe an idea.

411

Like I'll just talk about running.

412

I know running better.

413

You know, maybe in my mind, I say I want to do a double marathon, like 50 -mile race.

414

But if I focus on that, that is a large and quite difficult thing to do.

415

So instead, I would focus on doing maybe I'm going to do a marathon in six months.

416

Kind of have in my mind, you know, maybe I'll do the double marathon after that, but I'm not going to focus on the double marathon too much because it's too far right now.

417

I would focus just on doing a regular marathon first.

418

After the regular marathon, then I'll be in great shape, and then I'll think, hmm, maybe now I'll focus on the double marathon, right?

419

Because it's closer.

420

It feels possible.

421

It wouldn't be so stressful.

422

So it's just a little tricky.

423

This goal stuff can be a little tricky sometimes.

424

Well, yeah, right.

425

Haitham says, you will not be able to speak English like a native in one month or a week.

426

Well, exactly.

427

So, you know, it's okay to have that as a goal.

428

Like, we'll talk next week when I talk to Matt, that his goal was to speak basically perfect Japanese like a native.

429

And I think, you know, He didn't completely achieve it 100%, but I think he's probably 99 % achieved it.

430

He did a really great job.

431

But we'll talk with him about this.

432

Well, yeah, here's another problem.

433

I'm so bored, I feel it's impossible.

434

Rwand.

435

See, this is the other problem.

436

It can start to feel boring because when your goal feels too far, then you start to become bored with today because,

437

oh, well, today I'm not even close to my goal.

438

Still not close, right?

439

And tomorrow, I'm still not close.

440

And the next day, still not close.

441

It's too far.

442

And you can start to become bored because you're too focused on the future and not on now.

443

So it's better to, in that situation, you're feeling bored, change your goal, create a short goal.

444

Create a short goal, like next month.

445

Next month, you want to achieve something next month or maybe in three months.

446

One to three months is a nice time.

447

Your goal could be just to read a certain number of pages in English, to listen a certain number of hours,

448

to watch, I don't know, season one of Friends.

449

Something like that.

450

You know you can do that.

451

And it's much more fun.

452

Well, like Ziad says, the problem is we don't take action and think, I don't have time, passing time with awful thoughts.

453

This is another problem with large goals.

454

They seem so far, they kill your action because you feel like, okay, I can do something today, but it's just such a tiny step.

455

but if you have a goal that's close then you feel like you get excited

456

because you're like i'm so close

457

and you want to take a step you want to take another step

458

because you know you're getting close to that

459

so again this is a big advantage of making your goals

460

more achievable they got they've got to feel achievable it's more about your mindset right it's it's

461

that you feel inside or you think you have a confidence

462

that you can do it it's possible you can't do it right now

463

but you feel like I can this is possible

464

if a goal feels impossible then it will kill your motivation it's got to feel possible to you

465

so you make it smaller and smaller until it feels possible hey giuliano and sardinia good to see you

466

yeah like nana says nana komatsu says uh that's true one time i was kind of frustrated

467

because my goal was improving my english like a native i wasn't achieving it

468

but then i looked back and And I saw how much I have been improving.

469

I was glad.

470

I felt so nice about it.

471

Yes, Nana, very nice.

472

It just helps to do this, to review your achievements, to appreciate what you have already done.

473

It reminds you that, aha, I can improve.

474

I can and I am.

475

Yeah, Abraham and Lee, see, he's reading a book in English.

476

Finish!

477

Give Yourself the Gift of Done by John Acuff.

478

See, I mean, you can read books completely in English for native speakers.

479

That's great.

480

Claudio, good to see you from Milan.

481

Yeah, like Lisa says, right now, my goal is to enjoy a nice conversation, movies, and books in English.

482

I started learning English years ago, but I didn't put enough effort into it.

483

Now, I feel I'm able to spend more time, more effort every day.

484

I'm doing it, and I really enjoy it.

485

Fantastic.

486

See, this is the reward.

487

You just start to enjoy it, having conversations, enjoying movies, enjoying books.

488

These are fun, right?

489

So you're starting to enjoy the process. So important.

490

Will reading more books improve my English speaking?

491

Yeah, especially your vocabulary.

492

Reading is number one for vocabulary.

493

It really helps.

494

yeah now this is well said by lucas lucas says aj i think the goals are important

495

but much more important is the road after the goals right

496

the path for example what are you doing for your goals every day.

497

This, I agree with this.

498

If my goal is to learn German and my goal is to be fluent, I need to practice German every day.

499

The most important is the system, the daily system, the daily habits.

500

How to achieve my goal.

501

It's all about our actions.

502

Words without actions are worthless.

503

Yes, this is another way.

504

What's his name?

505

Scott Adams.

506

Scott Adams talks about us.

507

He has a book about this.

508

He talks about that systems are more important than goals.

509

So, systems means really habits.

510

It's kind of like your organized habits, that that will give you more success when you focus on systems than habits.

511

So, for example, a system would be, I will read one hour English every day, I will listen to one hour of English every day,

512

and i will review one hour of vocab you know from my reading every day

513

and you do it every day that's a system that's a

514

system you do it every day every day every day it's a system

515

and it will improve your english a lot over time you will get better

516

and better and better by focusing on the system, the habits.

517

Yeah, like Abdullah, he says, it's a helpful tip to partition big goals into mini goals.

518

It means divide.

519

That leads to the final goal.

520

In our way, the big goal is very important, like you said.

521

Yeah, right.

522

That's another way to think of it.

523

So, imagine you have your huge goal, whatever your goal is, your big goal.

524

Speak fluent English like a native, like a native.

525

Well, you don't start with that goal as the first goal.

526

It's too big.

527

You break it, right?

528

What's the path?

529

Where are you now?

530

What's the first step?

531

Then what's the next step?

532

What's the next goal?

533

So maybe you create five or 10 goals step by step by step, and then just focus on the next one, the one that's in front of you.

534

Yeah, see, this is a good idea.

535

This is cool what Mikhail says.

536

During our challenge, I noticed one thing.

537

Some days I don't have motivation.

538

Then I just start listening to podcasts or some interesting videos.

539

And my motivation incredibly increases.

540

So, for example, I had planned to listen two hours, and I finish the day with six or more.

541

This is true.

542

This is something I experienced with running many times, many times when I was running a lot or training for a marathon.

543

So I'd get up and it's time to run, maybe morning, right?

544

And I'm like, ah, I'm just tired.

545

I don't want to run today.

546

I feel lazy.

547

I don't want to run today.

548

Ah, you know, like for an hour, I'm just complaining and ah, but I do it.

549

I put on my clothes.

550

All right.

551

Maybe just a short run today.

552

Today, I'll just do a short run.

553

And so I finally, I get outside, start jogging.

554

Okay.

555

And then like after 10 minutes or 20 minutes, start feeling good.

556

Start feeling better.

557

Start feeling better.

558

Energy starts going up and up and up.

559

Start running faster, a little faster, a little faster.

560

And then suddenly it's, you know, One hour later, I'm feeling great, and I keep going, and I have a nice long run and feel fantastic,

561

and then the rest of the day feel really good.

562

It doesn't always happen.

563

Sometimes you just feel bad.

564

But it happens many times when you do this, that if you just push yourself to do a little bit,

565

that sometimes you start to feel better, you start to enjoy doing it, and then suddenly you do much more than you expect, right?

566

You think, okay, today I'll just run 30 minutes.

567

But then after 30 minutes, you feel great.

568

You keep going for one hour or two hours.

569

Or like Michal says, you say, ah, I don't want to listen to English today.

570

Ah, all right, I'll just do 20 minutes.

571

I'll just listen 20 minutes today.

572

And you listen 20 minutes, and then you start enjoying it.

573

It's the video's interesting.

574

The audio's interesting.

575

And you go, ah, I'll keep going.

576

And you do 30 minutes, an hour, two hours, six hours.

577

So don't let the first feeling stop you.

578

That's also important each day.

579

You know, even when you feel lazy, make yourself do a little bit just push yourself to do a little

580

if you still feel bad okay have an easy day just do a short day

581

that happens sometimes

582

but sometimes also you think it will be an easy day you think it will be a short day

583

but something changes you have a good time and you do a lot more good uh good comment

584

lewa says hi from texas hello to texas

585

see this is cool darby says on my learning english journey

586

i started a challenge where i learned 10 new words every

587

day now i'm doing 60 new words a day see this

588

is cool too this is again where you start with a goal

589

so if darby started with 60 words maybe it would have felt impossible to him in the beginning and he said,

590

ah, 60, ah and he would have stopped, maybe quit but instead he said 10,

591

10 seems possible I'll do 10 new words a day and then he realized, okay, after a while oh,

592

10 is easy, I'm used to doing 10 now maybe I'll do 20

593

and then he probably did that for a while and then he said, well, I could probably do 30 and now he's all the way up to 60 so that's fantastic

594

oh abra says

595

if you want to do an interview an interesting person contact

596

tenzin wongyal rinpoche i assume is tibetan buddhist he's a great teacher of our time abra

597

if you could send me a link to uh his website

598

or video or some contact i just would like to learn a little more about him But, you know, I'm open to that for sure.

599

Okay, I'm going to finish with Alexi's comment because he's got a nice long comment.

600

He always has good comments.

601

I don't even need to read them first.

602

Let's just see what Alexi says.

603

Okay, every day we want to see improvement, but it doesn't work this way.

604

Indeed.

605

We have to compare ourselves every month, not days.

606

It's a good point.

607

A lot of professional bodybuilders, for example, have their own coach to understand what kind of muscle they're improving.

608

In my case, to achieve something, whether it be in good shape or be good at English,

609

I have to turn the fearful thing into a habit to improve steadily without doubt.

610

If the babies would be afraid to start walking, they would never be able to do such basic things when they're grown.

611

Good point.

612

I've also saved myself mentally in the gym when I'm doing the last reps.

613

Just get it done even if you die.

614

It helps a lot.

615

As you can see, I'm still alive.

616

Yeah, yeah.

617

These are all good points.

618

Point number one being that, right, it's very hard to improve day to day.

619

You might be improving, but you don't feel it.

620

That's the point.

621

So with your english if you learn one new word

622

or you listen you know an hour you probably have improved

623

but maybe it's a tiny improvement you don't notice it so much so it's harder to feel the improvement

624

so i agree with alexi that it's better to compare months you know months instead of days

625

so look back four months ago

626

or six months ago compared to now are you better well then now you know you're improving

627

but if you just look to yesterday you probably think well i'm the same

628

well because it's too short the time's too short that's good point number one uh

629

and and body building is a great example of this

630

because yeah a bodybuilder goes to the gym

631

and they work a muscle let's say they work their shoulders

632

one day well the shoulder is not bigger the next day

633

right they're not they don't notice oh my shoulder is much bigger today no it takes a

634

while right They've got to eat a lot.

635

They've got to work that shoulder many times, the shoulders.

636

And then, yes, after a month or months, they will get bigger shoulders and bigger muscles in general.

637

But it takes some time.

638

So there is a time lag.

639

This is why our challenge is four months long.

640

First, it was three months.

641

I decided, let's make it a little longer because then we will notice the improvement.

642

We can notice the change.

643

One month's not enough time to notice.

644

Now, some of you already are noticing improvements.

645

That's great.

646

I noticed improvement.

647

I'm better than one month ago in Japanese, for sure.

648

But I'm starting at zero level, so of course I'm improving.

649

When you're a low beginner, the improvement is very obvious.

650

But when you're intermediate level, the improvement is less obvious.

651

So you need longer time.

652

One month for some of you is not enough time to notice improvements.

653

But four months I do think is enough.

654

If you're really working hard for our challenge these four months, I think at the end of November you will definitely notice improvements, possibly very big improvements.

655

So Alexei, very good, always has great comments.

656

we'll just end this show today by looking at our challenge so here on our challenge board we have the listening

657

all right on our listening challenge

658

so right at the top you know these guys now have

659

uh four to five hundred hours we've been doing this what we're about week number five almost

660

so that's almost a hundred hours a a week that's pretty impressive

661

so edward anderson sven h alimana lee julia lamaine chero uh jose ramos ramos i uh i am Perumal,

662

Jean Ribeiro, Julia Taquita, Alexander Beliakov.

663

Nicely done, all of you.

664

So that's ranging from 284 all the way up to 568.

665

You know, that's some serious hours, guys.

666

Great job.

667

Great job.

668

And we'll look over in the reading.

669

I've been focusing on listening, as I've said.

670

So I'm curious about the readers.

671

Edward Anderson.

672

So Edward Anderson, I think clearly what we're seeing with Sven

673

and Edward is that they're combining their reading and listening at the same time.

674

That's how they're getting these big hours on both.

675

Otherwise, it would be impossible, okay?

676

So they're reading along as they listen, which is not a bad technique.

677

It's a nice technique.

678

And we have Roberto de Santos with almost 230 hours of reading.

679

Carol, I know, is focused very much on reading.

680

She's got 211 hours of reading.

681

I imagine Carol's vocabulary is improving very fast.

682

all of these people, I imagine their vocabulary is growing quite a lot

683

because what reading especially does is improves your vocabulary a lot, much better than listening.

684

Now, listening has other benefits, but I've noticed myself with Japanese

685

that I feel like I need to do more reading because I just feel my vocabulary is not growing fast enough,

686

starting to get a little frustrated that I feel like I need to learn more words.

687

You know, I feel this pressure now.

688

And so I'm trying to push myself to do a little more reading because I need to get the words.

689

On the other hand, my listening has improved quite a lot.

690

And then we have, was it Hikam and Mirwais and Shero,

691

I imagine, is also doing the double thing.

692

Salvador Ramirez Inderpal and Zibinek

693

Skalinski

694

at their top 10 for reading again good job I mean really getting in some big hours of reading

695

that is like vocabulary superpower right there these guys are getting and everyone else who's doing that reading

696

congratulations excellent excellent finally don't forget our Gab group that's where you can see what other people are reading can get ideas.

697

What I like about this Gab group, if you can see on Gab, yep, you're seeing on the screen if you're watching,

698

our Gab group here is that you get some cool ideas about things to listen to

699

or things to watch or things to read because you can see everybody's posting what they are reading, what they are listening to.

700

So you can kind of find maybe you're getting bored and you want something new, something interesting.

701

So you can go through and see like, oh, that's cool what's that and click the link

702

or do a search

703

704

that sounds like an interesting book it's an audiobook julia's listening

705

to it robinson caruso those are good stories albertina is reading robinson caruso And also Hansel and Gretel, fairy tales.

706

I like fairy tales, too.

707

I'm listening to traditional old Japanese stories,

708

old audiobooks, Momotaro and Isunboshi and the little samurai, all these kind of traditional stories.

709

I like them.

710

They're really nice.

711

But anyway, you see the idea that people are posting videos, YouTube videos, the names of books, the names of audios, audiobooks.

712

You can get a lot of ideas here from the Gab group of different things that might be interesting to you, all different things.

713

718

I have to go watch some babies.

719

720

And I'll be back tomorrow.

721

So have a great day.

722

Continue with the challenge and set those goals, but make sure the goal feels possible.
