1
People often ask me, does work make you happy?
2
And the answer is it can.
3
But we have to understand how.
4
It's a real skill.
5
The biggest mistake that people make about work and happiness is thinking that success in worldly terms is going to bring happiness.
6
And it's not true.
7
That's true.
8
The worldly success from work has to do with money and power and the admiration of other people and job titles, et cetera, et cetera.
9
And a lot of people mistakenly think that those markers of success will bring happiness in its wake.
10
In other words, be successful, get happy automatically.
11
That's exactly wrong.
12
I've done research for years as an economist on labor markets and the characteristics of work.
13
And it's true that you need to make an income where you can support yourself and your family.
14
But that doesn't bring happiness.
15
That just eliminates the sources of unhappiness.
16
To get actual happiness from work, you need to seek two things, and really two things only.
17
We call them earned success and service to others.
18
Service to others is pretty self-explanatory.
19
I can talk about that in a second.
20
Earned success, not so much.
21
That's the opposite of what psychologists refer to as learned helplessness, where nothing you do really matters, and so you kind of give up.
22
It's also associated with depression and loneliness in the workplace, et cetera.
23
You don't want learned helplessness, that's for sure.
24
You want earned success where you feel like you're creating value with your life, value with your work, value in the lives of other people through your work, and it's being acknowledged and recognized.
25
That's how earned success works.
26
That's why it's so critically important that people who are bosses, people who are managers, that they help other people to earn their success and they recognize the value that people are creating.
27
That's why meritocracy is so critically important for people to get actual joy from their work.
28
The second is service to other people.
29
You have to feel like your job matters to others and you're lightening somebody else's load.
30
Then you'll go to work with joy.
31
It's weird.
32
The data are pretty clear that it doesn't actually matter to a certain extent what the job is.
33
You know, I've done experiments with people where they say, I feel like I'm a drone.
34
I feel like I'm a cog in a machine.
35
And then they'll do something like, through the experimentation process, They'll start getting coffee for the people in the next cubicle at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
36
You look like you could use a fresh cup of coffee.
37
And mysteriously, they start to like their jobs better.
38
Why is that?
39
Because we're made to serve other people.
40
If you can build your work into something that's meaningful to you because you're truly earning your success and recognized for it, and you're serving other people, and on top of that,
41
you're doing something you're really good at, work's going to bring you joy.
42
100% guaranteed.
43
Thank you.

關於本課
在這節課中，學習者將通過分析工作與幸福之間的關係來練習英語口語。影片中探討了在職業生涯中獲得快樂的關鍵因素，包括“ Earned Success”（獲得成功）和“ Service to Others”（服務他人）。學習者將通過影子跟讀強化對這些概念的理解，並提高自己的英語口語表達能力。
關鍵詞彙和短語
- 幸福 (happiness)
- 工作 (work)
- 獲得成功 (earned success)
- 服務他人 (service to others)
- 學習無能 (learned helplessness)
- 職場孤獨 (loneliness in the workplace)
- 回報感 (sense of value)
- 快樂 (joy)
練習技巧
在進行英語口語練習時，採用影子跟讀（英語影子跟讀）的的方法是非常有效的，尤其是在處理影片中的講話速度和語氣時。以下是一些具體的建議，幫助你更好地練習：
- 選擇影片中簡單明瞭的句子進行跟讀，注意講者的語調和重音。
- 儘量模仿講者的語速，逐漸增加複雜度，提升英語口語流利度。
- 在跟讀時，關注關鍵詞彙的發音，例如“獲得成功”和“服務他人”，加強對這些短語的記憶和應用。
- 如果有困難，暫停影片，先理解句子的意思，再進行重複練習。
- 與同伴進行交流，分享各自的經驗，提高口語互動能力，適合雅思口語練習。
- 可以將影子跟讀與獨自練習相結合，即在沒有影片的情況下，回憶並複述你所跟讀的內容。
記住，定期進行影子跟讀（shadowspeak）不僅能夠提高你的語言能力，還能幫助你在溝通中感受到更多的快樂，這樣你的工作和學習將變得更加充實和有意義。
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
