1
People are gonna probably make fun of you and so what
2
and people are gonna find you cringe because you're trying to be someone
3
that you're not But it's like how the fuck do you know that if you were to do it,
4
you would be embarrassed Do I really want what they have or is it just because I don't have it?
5
Hi guys, welcome back to my channel today I really want to talk about something.
6
I feel like everyone talks about this Especially I feel like
7
when I get dms from you guys where you're saying I want to make videos I want to make content,
8
but it's like cringe what happens to my friends like bullies me about it
9
and makes fun of me about it So I really want to talk about this topic.
10
You see all over the internet recently where people say that how cringe creates success.
11
I personally believe that if you're doing something and you don't feel embarrassed,
12
you're probably starting too late.
13
It's natural to start something at the beginning and you feel embarrassed about it.
14
Like that just means you're on the right timing of it.
15
You're supposed to feel like that because it's like when you're not familiar with something,
16
you don't know how to do something.
17
Of course, you're going to be a little bit embarrassed and that just means that you're starting.
18
And also along that, I think
19
that I also really want to talk about like comparison because like we all know that to do something,
20
to grow, to be your most authentic self,
21
you have to be cringe.
22
Because when you become a cringe,
23
cringe, it's where you're willing to take a lot of risk,
24
a lot of risk that other people wouldn't take.
25
And sometimes when you keep doing that,
26
you're like, I don't care, I don't care.
27
There's certain moments in life where you start comparing because you're like,
28
oh, am I actually being cringe?
29
Because it's not, I don't think it's like a linear slope where you're just like,
30
I don't care what people think,
31
I don't care what people think.
32
I think you build thicker skin over time,
33
but I genuinely believe that there's going to be moments where you're going to be like,
34
oh, this is kind of cringe.
35
Like, what the fuck am I doing?
36
Especially when you interact with different groups of people.
37
Like, that's just how it'd be sometimes, right?
38
So I also want to talk about that.
39
And so I have some notes on my phone and my laptop,
40
which I will probably be looking down to read.
41
Like, yeah, of course, like there's like moments where you really just think that it's fucking cringe.
42
Like literally me the other day when I was streaming on Twitch and people were like,
43
hey, you should look at some thirst traps by people.
44
And yeah, I sometimes find them cringe
45
but you know what it's just what people do like some people might find me cringe
46
and that's completely fine like she's so cringe you know
47
so something i get it it can just be you know it's kind of funny
48
but i think people think other things are cringe
49
because it's imperfect you have to take risk
50
and you also have to learn from your mistakes
51
because at the beginning especially for those of you guys who
52
are aspiring content creators of course people find it cringe
53
because you're trying to become someone without evidence right you're like oh i'm gonna make a bunch of content.
54
I'm going to try to become this content creator,
55
but you don't even have very much big of a platform.
56
Like you're getting there.
57
And the thing is that you're going to be seen
58
when you're doing this path and people are going to find you cringe because you're trying to be someone that you're not,
59
but it's like, how the fuck do you know that?
60
Because that's just how life works.
61
You're a, right?
62
You want to get to be,
63
it's not like you just suddenly go to be,
64
you have a path that you need to take to become B.
65
But the thing is that when you think it, you can become it.
66
And there's a path you're going to be seen.
67
You're going to be seen trying.
68
And I think the scary thing about trying and doing things
69
that are different is that you're going to be seen
70
and people often say like nobody really cares about what you do like people don't really judge you for
71
i disagree with that because i think
72
that yes people will judge you for what you do
73
and it's like people are going to probably make fun of you
74
and so what i think true confidence is knowing
75
that yes people may talk about you people may judge you
76
but you know that you yourself can persevere You know that you yourself can be fine no matter what the environment is.
77
I think that's true confidence.
78
And I think it's just authenticity is very, very important.
79
And I think when we find something cringe, right?
80
Like, oh, that's so cringe.
81
I genuinely think it's just like a projection of our inner self.
82
Like it's kind of like you see someone do something that's kind of cringe
83
and you find it cringe because if you were to do it,
84
you would be embarrassed, right?
85
And that's why you find it cringe.
86
But just because you do it doesn't mean it's like a really bad thing.
87
It's just that you're just a little embarrassed about it and you don't accept that certain aspect of yourself.
88
You know, that's why you find certain things like, oh, kind of weird.
89
But that's why I find like sometimes thirst trapping a little like,
90
you know, like cringe.
91
And this maybe in reality is not even cringe.
92
It's just the fact that if I were to do it,
93
I might find it a little, you know.
94
So I think it's just our own projections towards things.
95
And I think this year it truly taught me that authenticity is very,
96
very important in life because it makes things so much easier
97
but sometimes being authentic in the society it doesn't feel safe to be authentic with everyone because sometimes it's just,
98
and it's like, I think it's great for people who can be authentic to everyone.
99
But sometimes it's just, at least for me,
100
I, not like I pick and I choose,
101
but sometimes there's certain people that you just feel like there needs to be like a certain barrier.
102
Like there's certain people that you feel safe enough to be authentic.
103
And there's certain people that you're just like,
104
oh, I need to put on my like, what's the word?
105
Like, like corporate, corporate, not like corporate,
106
but just like, you know, like professional, polite.
107
You know what I mean?
108
When you truly do what you want to do,
109
if it's so-called cringe, I still think that you should do it.
110
Because even now, like, when I post my own videos,
111
like, I'm like, oh, that is so cringe.
112
Like, why the fuck do I do that?
113
But I wouldn't be here.
114
I generally would not be here doing this if I didn't put myself out there.
115
Low-key, like, I look back,
116
I'm like, oh, why did I do my makeup like that?
117
Why did I do my hair like that?
118
Why do I talk like that?
119
It just, like, goes on and on and on.
120
I can keep judging, I can keep judging.
121
But it's like, because I put myself out there,
122
not, like, to be judged,
123
well, that too but i didn't really think of it like
124
that i'm just like i've done all the embarrassing like people see me like i put myself out there
125
and
126
but now it's like who cares like people can judge me
127
like there's worse stuff out there like i've posted very embarrassing before like there's worse out there
128
and nowadays like
129
when i film it just i feel very comfortable you guys always ask why i feel
130
so comfortable when i film it's because like there's so much embarrassing out there
131
because like
132
that i'm just like oh now at least i know how
133
to do my eyeliner at least my makeup ease like you
134
know i don't care like you can say all the you want like it doesn't really matter
135
so it just goes to show you that when you're cringe
136
and when you're just keep doing it
137
and doing it you get more confident in it
138
but like i said before it's not linear
139
and there's moments where you become a little bit self-aware not like self-aware
140
but like a bit more like you become a bit i don't know
141
if the word is insecure
142
because i'm not gonna lie like for a very long time i didn't give a i didn't give a
143
and even now it's like right this instant i feel like i'm in the I don't give a fuck mood
144
but there's moments where I do give a fuck I'm like
145
oh why do I post this well why should I do this why should I do
146
that it's this is kind of weird because you start comparing okay
147
when you meet more people you start comparing especially in a city like New York
148
and sometimes like genuinely even now this is like open conversation
149
but sometimes I generally ask myself I'm like oh
150
when I see people like doing certain things I'm like oh I kind of want to do
151
that but I ask myself do I really want what they have
152
or is it just because what did I write down There was something that I wrote down.
153
Hold on.
154
I need to get my fucking journal, bro.
155
Oh, okay.
156
This is what I wrote down.
157
I said that.
158
Do I really want what they have or is it just because I don't have it?
159
Let me repeat that.
160
Do I really want what they have or is it just because I don't have it?
161
And I asked myself and I'm like, okay.
162
And I think like, do I want what they have?
163
Do I want that dress?
164
Do I want that invitation?
165
Do I want to be noticed by certain people?
166
Like, Do I want to look like her?
167
Do I want to like dress like the certain way?
168
Do I want to be,
169
you know, traveling all across the world?
170
Do I want to be on the show?
171
Like, like XYZ, whatever examples you can think of.
172
Like, do I want that?
173
Or is it just simply because I don't have it right now and I want it because of a fucking human greed?
174
But I think for me, I really thought within.
175
And I think it's not even the external thing.
176
It's internally.
177
I think I get sad or I get insecure when I see how confident girls can be.
178
And this sounds so fucking fucked up, I know
179
but it's generally I think about it because I'm like oh she looks
180
so beautiful xyz and I it makes me feel really shit about myself
181
and I'm like it's not because of them being at a fancy place
182
or getting whatever the external thing is it's more
183
so the within I feel
184
so envious of how confident they are these days I'm not
185
gonna lie I feel like I'm not very comfortable in my own skin as much as I want to be
186
and I'm like wow it's the confidence I get envious of the confidence sometimes I don't know
187
if the word is envious but I think that
188
when I see other girls very very confident and like being just
189
so confident in public it makes me realize how much i
190
don't want to be perceived i think it just shows how much i need to improve to get there
191
when i said that that makes me come to terms to things more like
192
when i try to describe my own emotions like things make sense
193
and i'm like okay this is something that we just have to fix
194
but at the same time makes me feel really bad
195
because it's very hard to differentiate between like do i really want this
196
or is it just because i'm being avoidant and it's just something
197
that i don't want to get out of my comfort zone
198
and And something that I found online was that this is what they said.
199
This is what you call relative deprivation.
200
The sense that someone else's success highlights that you lack,
201
even if you didn't care about it before.
202
It's not always genuine desire.
203
Sometimes it's the discomfort of being reminded you could be doing more or that someone's path seemed clearer than yours.
204
So they said that try asking yourself this.
205
Would I still want what they have if no one could see it?
206
Would it still feel fulfilling if it didn't look impressive online?
207
And if the answer is no,
208
then it's probably comparison talking, not true desires
209
and I think for a lot of things you don't know what you want that's another thing
210
which is why I like to try out a lot of different things for myself even
211
if I'm not good at it I'll try it out
212
because I never know what might happen and the thing is
213
that I feel like back then when I tried things I wasn't scared
214
because there was like there was a goal like me now
215
was probably what my college self would want to be I'll be
216
so fucking for real like I'm literally living in New York
217
and that was something I've always wanted to do
218
and I think back then I didn't give a fuck because I couldn't afford to give a fuck.
219
I didn't care.
220
I was like, oh, this is gonna be cool.
221
Like I romanticized this entire life.
222
And then now that I'm here,
223
I feel like I don't want to sound corny when I say this,
224
but I feel like I've gotten to a point where I'm like,
225
okay, this is where I wanted to be.
226
And sometimes I forget that.
227
Sometimes I forget that.
228
Sometimes I'm still in the college mindset sometimes and I'm like, what the fuck?
229
And I feel like that drive back then,
230
like I was not scared.
231
Like I didn't give a fuck because I was like constantly chasing and chasing.
232
But now that I'm here,
233
it just feels like I don't know what I'm chasing.
234
And then I start getting a little scared because back then
235
when I try out different things I'll be honest like nobody was really watching
236
but now that there's like people watching it's a little scarier I'm like oh okay
237
but it's like I think
238
that compared to a lot of people I probably like really don't give a fuck on like the shit
239
that I post you know like I post embarrassing shit like
240
I really don't give a fuck I think just being in a way like my quote-unquote authentic self
241
or just how I just act it makes me feel fulfilled it makes me feel happy
242
and it's like I also just want to add
243
that like I feel super super blessed to be accepted by you guys like genuinely I remember
244
when I first started making content I didn't really feel like
245
I belong like you guys genuinely made me feel like I belong like there's people who are actually like me
246
and then I can actually sit here and talk about certain things
247
and you guys listen and you guys think similar to me
248
and that makes me feel very very blessed sometimes
249
because of you guys I feel oh yeah I definitely one in life like you guys are the best
250
but it's also just like
251
when you compare yourself like people are always like comparison the thief of joy i agree with
252
that but i also do think that
253
when you compare it is also a way to grow to get better like
254
when you're interacting with a lot of different people your sense
255
of what you see becomes wider as in like you see the possibilities of a lot of different things
256
that you never really thought of before and that's very important
257
because let's just say like you're a fucking fish right
258
when you're fucking fish in a small pond you don't see what's outside right
259
so it's very important to get uncomfortable and
260
when you get uncomfortable i think that
261
that is also how you grow you know there's a reason why it's uncomfortable like it really tests you
262
and it makes you feel like you're not doing enough
263
but it's like the moment when you realize that that's
264
when you also become more that's when you realize
265
that oh maybe i lack this lack
266
that see i don't use the word lacking
267
but it's just like there's another possibility for you out there
268
that you can achieve okay that you did not know before you're uncomfortable now because this is not something you're used to.
269
But like I said before at the beginning,
270
that just means that you're just on time, okay?
271
Because if this was something that you are like super comfortable with and you just never did it before,
272
that just means you're a little fucking late because like, what the fuck?
273
Like you might as well do it.
274
Like what the heck?
275
If you're comfortable with this and you're fine with this,
276
you might as well do it.
277
But if you're uncomfortable, that just means that the timing is perfect and you can just start right now.
278
I believe that we only live once.
279
This is my personal belief.
280
You don't have to have the same belief as me,
281
but this is my personal belief.
282
You only live once genuinely make this life yours okay i
283
mean it whoever's judging you do they pay your rent are
284
they paying your fucking bills babe like who gives a fuck you have to live this life as your own
285
because i think like it's so such a blessing
286
that we get to experience this life at this specific timing
287
you're probably not going to be here within 100 years you're probably not going to be here
288
because i think it's such a regret to be you know
289
when you're laying on your deathbed
290
and you're just like oh i could have been doing this i could have been doing
291
that you might as well be fucking and embarrassing
292
and do some stuff where people are gonna talk about
293
because trust me i don't know i feel like people who say
294
that people don't talk about people i think we should just accept
295
that yes people are going to talk about us but
296
so what yes people are going to talk about us
297
but they're fucking pathetic losers like we're out here trying to make better versions of ourselves testing our limits
298
and putting ourselves out there and they just be talking shit
299
but honestly we probably need people talking shit about us
300
because those are the fucking haters and haters be fans
301
if people are talking about you you're probably doing something right okay babes
302
so yes people are gonna talk about you okay i don't
303
know this might be an unpopular opinion i don't know people fucking say this
304
but i live with the mentality people are gonna talk shit it might be a very pessimistic thing
305
but whatever you want to believe in i just think
306
that people not talking about you is kind of unrealistic
307
because you know there's always haters out there
308
and i don't think it's necessarily a bad thing
309
because it's just reality especially when you do something
310
that where a majority of people don't do people are going to say things
311
and you know they might be right they might be wrong who the fuck knows
312
but all you really do know at the end of the day
313
which is kind of the sad reality is
314
that you just live your own life this life is yours
315
you do certain things you face the consequences of it
316
but i think that everyone should be wanting to improve their lives
317
so if you think
318
that something's going to genuinely improve your quality of life do it you know do it
319
and you have to remember
320
when you become a certain version of yourself you're going to attract people who are like you
321
and i think i've said this before it's also you're gonna attract people who i really hate to say this
322
but sometimes they put a little disguise as your friend they're those people
323
that you know that they're just friends with you but you know
324
that they secretly don't like you and those instances it really sucks
325
because it's like that gets exhausting and it really sucks
326
because it really makes me just not even want to talk to people anymore
327
because you feel it's a sort of energy that you know
328
that they're not happy for you
329
and you're gonna attract a lot of those people that's why be smart with who you hang out with
330
and my advice is always keep your circle small okay you
331
rather have a few close friends than a bunch of fucking
332
acquaintances a friend to all is friend to none okay
333
and i live by that
334
because to me it just feels like there's no backbone i generally think
335
that you can only build meaningful friendships when you can genuinely invest time
336
and energy into each person when you have a lot of people you cannot invest all
337
that energy into everyone you know it's just not possible So be wise with the people that you hang out with.
338
I also want to say that it is okay for,
339
let's say that you have certain goals, right?
340
Especially when you start comparing to people.
341
When you have certain goals and your goals change, they shift.
342
I think that's very normal,
343
especially if you're a person,
344
you're fucking going to evolve.
345
And also you're getting older.
346
Of course, the things that you want is going to evolve.
347
But I think it's also very important.
348
You know, this is going to be open conversation.
349
You guys can disagree with me on this.
350
It's also just like, remember what your child self wants.
351
Some people might say that,
352
well, you're just saying that because you want to stay within your comfort zone.
353
That could be it.
354
But I also don't think it's wrong to be within your comfort zone sometimes.
355
It makes you feel safe because I feel like if you're constantly feeling unsafe and constantly stressed,
356
it's, I don't think that's good for your mental health.
357
You have to sometimes just be comfortable and feel safe and also protect your inner child, right?
358
I think it's good to have a balance of pushing yourself bit by bit,
359
but also be comfortable and doing things where your child self would have wanted
360
because that I think brings a lot of joy.
361
Like the other day I literally built my projector and I'm just sitting in my bedroom.
362
I'm lying in my bed watching,
363
looking at the wall, watching the projector, watching cartoons.
364
Because back then I didn't get to watch a lot of like American,
365
like mainstream cartoons as a kid because we didn't have the channels to watch it.
366
So now that I have that,
367
I'm like, that's so good.
368
And literally I get to call takeout now because I'm an adult.
369
I mean, these are things that just generally brings me a lot of joy.
370
So I'm saying like, even when you compare yourself,
371
just make sure to not lose track of who you wanted to be as a kid.
372
Like you just constantly have to ask yourself,
373
when as a kid certain things would make me happy chances are those things will probably still make you happy
374
so sometimes make sure to just tap into that
375
and make sure you're fulfilling that to make yourself feel better
376
so yeah that's just something
377
that i just wanted to pop in here i know that's like a whole jumble of thoughts
378
but that's just something that's been going on in my head lately
379
that kind of journaled about and maybe you guys might find it relatable
380
and it might get you guys thinking too
381
but anyway guys i hope you guys like this journal entry let me know what you guys think
382
and i'll see you guys all very very soon okay bye Talbot

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
