When we say that we're feeling lost in life, we're implying that there's a certain direction that we're supposed to be heading in, or a certain path that we should be following, and for whatever reason, we're not on that path.

Feeling lost in life is so part of the human experience, it's so common, that the psychologist Eric Erickson proposed that we might face up to eight different crises throughout our lifetimes.

Like think, for example, of the quarter-life crisis, or the mid-life crisis.

working through moments like these moments of uncertainty and confusion it's not easy and so today I wanted to share three different things that we can do in

order to try to find our way back onto the proverbial path again whenever we're feeling lost and warm things as well to better help for sponsoring today's video we're gonna chat more about them at the end

I personally think that it's a little bit of a myth that there is a single purpose for everyone somewhere out there in the world that we just have to

find i think it puts a lot of pressure on us to try to find this one thing that we love and it also doesn't give much

space for passions to come and go as they tend to so instead of seeking a singular purpose i think that we

can better derive guidance and direction from a set of personal values these are a collection of personal truths like for example valuing family spending time with them valuing adventure

valuing nature, the beauty of it, and preserving it, valuing caring for those in need, valuing learning and creating.

The psychiatrist Viktor Frankl once said that the meaning of life is to give life meaning.

And I always feel like being connected with our personal values can help us when we're trying to make decisions to make sure that we're making the right ones, but it also helps in giving our lives some kind of direction or some kind of meaning.

So to help you in defining your your own set of personal values, we've actually created a free downloadable PDF.

You can find the link for it in the description box below.

And in it, you're gonna find a list of 75 values.

If you're up for it, just give it a skim and circle or write down the three or five that resonate with you the most.

Whenever I feel like I'm lacking a sense of purpose, I usually find at least some comfort in knowing that I'm doing the best that I can whenever I'm staying close to my personal values.

It's really easy to get caught up in our everyday lives and in our never-ending list of to-dos.

And you might remember in a video of ours from a couple of years back, I had recommended trying to focus our attention on quadrant one of the Eisenhower decision matrix.

So in short, the matrix divides our to-do list along two axes, things that are urgent and things that are important.

And quadrant one is where items fall that are both urgent and important.

These are things like finishing deadlines or responding to emails.

But beware of the urgency trap.

Working on the items that are in quadrant one is great from a productivity perspective, but it's often at the expense of making time for working on the items that are in quadrant two.

The tasks that are in quadrant two are those that are less urgent but more important.

And so usually it's the tasks that are more meaningful and that spark joy.

So for me, this is where I slot tasks like making time to garden or planning our next holiday or video chatting more with family back home or learning how to paint.

These are things that I feel are important but because they aren't urgent i also often find that i don't make time for them and in

my own personal experience when i don't make time for the items that are in quadrant two that's when i tend to start feeling a

bit lost or maybe burnt out or unfulfilled so in the free pdf that we've attached below you can actually fill out the eisenhower matrix for

yourself and then just keep a close eye on what you're putting in quadrant two try to create space for at least one of these items and maybe just actively schedule it in your agenda.

I really feel that it's making time for the tasks that are in quadrant two that can really help to contribute to our lifelong goals and our values.

Very often in our lives, our wants and needs are in direct conflict with each other.

Like we want to explore and travel the world, but at the same time, we want to put down deep roots.

We want to start a family but we also want to be independent and free from responsibilities.

And sometimes it's the wanting of these very conflicting things that can make us feel like we don't know what we're doing.

And it can be really frustrating.

Like I remember I once called my mom a bit emotional that I was really missing family back home.

I wanted to be with them in Canada again.

With my parents and my sisters and their kids and I just missed them so much and I missed the familiarity of home but at the

same time I knew that I chose the life of living abroad in the Netherlands with Robin and I was so grateful for the life that

we were building for ourselves here but at the same time I felt like an outsider and so I was just completely torn and honestly I still am like do I stay or do I go back home and anytime I feel lost or anytime I feel like I'm being pulled in different directions directions.

It's the words of my mom that actually brings me a whole bunch of comfort because she often says you will have everything you've ever wanted in your life but just never all at the same time.

For me it means that it's okay to focus on just one thing at a time because very likely at some point in my life I will have that other thing

that I want instead but it will be at the expense of whatever it is that I have right now and so kind of feeling torn between these two very conflicting desires, it can feel very debilitating.

And especially if you're an anxious person like me and tend to overthink which of the decisions is the best one to follow.

And it's again my mom's words of wisdom that offer me some relief because she'll often say, shine just enough light to see only one step of the path ahead of you at a time.

And it's her way of reminding me that it's okay to not have all the answers right now.

Because when we try to do it all, it feels like we have a mountain to climb, where in fact all that matters today is that we put one foot in front of the other.

It's a reminder to take it just one step at a time and to focus on what's right in front of us.

And so kind of feeling lost, it's obviously not easy, but it also means that there's a shift happening, a pivotal moment of potential personal growth.

Henry David Thoreau once famously said, Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.

And so it might be worth it to work through these moments intently, but that's not to say that we have to do it all by ourselves.

So I again wanted to thank BetterHelp for sponsoring today's video in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month.

I think many of us face a mental health challenge at some point in our lives, whether that's feeling lost in life or overwhelmed, or as I've said for me, it's been living with anxiety.

And I think it's so important to talk about it just so that we realize like we're not alone but at the same time it's important to talk to somebody about it who you know can properly listen and help.

For me anyway therapy has been indispensable.

So BetterHelp is an online therapy platform where you can chat with your own therapist weekly via video or voice chat or through unlimited instant messaging.

Whatever you feel most comfortable with and wherever you feel most comfortable talking to them because it's all online and everything is of course confidential.

To start you just fill out a questionnaire to assess what your specific needs are and then within 48 hours you'll already be matched with a therapist.

They also offer financial support which you can apply for during the signup process and if for whatever reason you're just not clicking with the therapist that you've been matched with you can actually request a new one anytime and free of charge.

They've got over 20,000 therapists working with them with a broad range of expertise so someone else is bound to be a great fit.

In advocating for and making mental health care more accessible, BetterHelp is actually offering 10% off of your first month.

So if you or someone that you know could benefit from speaking to a licensed therapist, then check out betterhelp.com forward slash pick up lines or check out the link that I'll leave for you in the description box below.

If you've been feeling a little bit lost lately, I feel you.

I have been there before and it's just very uncomfortable and unpleasant, but it's temporary and a little bit of introspection can go a long way.

It's a great way to get started, especially when you write things out.

So if you'd like again that PDF that we've created for you with a few prompts to help offer some direction The link for that is in the description box below and thanks so much for hanging with me today I really appreciate it.

FOR YOU

為什麼要通過這個影片練習口語？

對於許多正在學習英語的學生來說，感到迷茫和失去方向是常見的。這段影片通過探討人生的意義和尋找個人價值觀，提供了一個有趣的口語練習背景。觀看並跟隨這個影片，對於提高英語口語能力非常有幫助，因為你可以學習到如何表達情感和思考。同時，通過shadowspeak（影子口語），學習者能夠模仿演講者的發音和語調，從而更加自信地進行與他人交流。

語法與表達結構分析

在影片中，演講者使用了一些關鍵的結構，這些結構對於學習者非常重要：

感覺迷茫 (feeling lost) - 這個短語傳達了不確定和失落的情感，適用於描述個體的狀態。
個人價值觀 (personal values) - 通過定義個人價值觀，學習者可以學會如何表達自己內心的重要性。
一項一項來 (one step at a time) - 這個短語能夠幫助學習者理解在複雜情況下如何逐步進行，適合於提倡耐心的重要性。

運用這些語法結構，學習者能夠更有效地用英語表達自己的思想和情感。

常見發音陷阱

在這個影片中，有一些詞彙和表達方式可能會對學習者構成發音挑戰：

迷茫 (lost) - 這個詞在快節奏的對話中可能更難發音，學習者可以通過重複影子模仿以練習準確發音。
價值觀 (values) - 在英語中，這個詞的發音需要注意音節的重音，確保清晰度。
重要 (important) - 這個詞在句子中的語調變化可能影響其發音，學習者可以通過模仿提高語感。

通過這些對發音的集中練習，學習者將能夠更流利和自信地使用shadowspeaks（影子口語）技巧，增強英語口語能力。

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：

結構	影片中的用法
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事	we've actually created · we've attached · you've ever wanted
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的	being connected · being pulled · are lost

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。
