1
Bye you Bye you Many of us are wandering the earth,
2
accomplished in many ways, capable of fulfillment at many points,
3
but with a fundamental wound that stops us from becoming who we truly might be.
4
We don't quite know who we Oh.
5
It isn't, of course, that we can't remember the basics of our biographies.
6
We're unsure around two things in particular: Firstly, we don't have a stable sense of what we're worth.
7
And secondly, we don't have a secure hold on our own values, or judgements.
8
Without knowing who we are, we tend to have particular trouble coping with either denigration or adulation.
9
If other people decide that we are worthless or bad, there will be nothing inside us to prevent us from swallowing their verdicts in their entirety,
10
however wrongheaded, extreme or unkind these might be.
11
We'll be helpless before the court of public opinion.
12
We'll always be asking other people what we deserve before seeking inside for an answer.
13
Lacking an independent verdict, we also stand to be unnaturally hungry for external praise.
14
The clapping of an audience will matter to us far more than would ever be wise.
15
We'll be prey to rushing towards whatever idea or activity the crowd happens to love.
16
We'll laugh at jokes that aren't funny, uncritically accept undeserving concepts that are in vogue,
17
and neglect our truer talents for easy, popular wins.
18
We'll trail public opinion slavishly, constantly checking the world's whims rather than consulting an inner barometer in order to know what we should want,
19
feel and value.
20
We need to be kind on ourselves.
21
No one is born with an independent ability to know who they are.
22
We learn to have an identity because, if we're blessed, in our early years, someone else takes the trouble to study us with immense fairness,
23
attention and kindness, and then plays us back to us in a way that makes sense and that we can later emulate.
24
years and use as a defence against the distorting verdicts from hurried or ill -intentioned others.
25
Knowing who one is, is really the legacy of having been known properly by somebody else at the start.
26
This early identity building tends to unfold with apparently innocuous but life -saving small steps.
27
"That must really have hurt," a parent might say in response to an upset, thereby validating an infant's own feelings.
28
Or "It's okay not to feel happy on your birthday," the parent might say at another point,
29
delicately upholding an infant's less typical response to certain events.
30
Ideally, the child isn't just known, he or she is also interpreted as likeable.
31
A good parent offers generous interpretations.
32
They're on the side of the child
33
and are always ready to put the best possible gloss on moments of ill temper
34
or of failure which forms the basis upon which resilient self -esteem can then later emerge.
35
Now, that's the ideal, but it can, of course, go very wrong and often does.
36
A parent may offer mirroring that is out of sync with the reality of the child.
37
"Look, who's such a happy little boy or girl?" a parent might insist, when actually the opposite is clearly the case,
38
thereby badly scrambling the child's ability to connect with their own emotions.
39
Or the parent might only lend the child a very harsh, punitive way of interpreting itself,
40
repeatedly suggesting that the child is ill -intentioned or no good.
41
Or the parent may simply not show very much interest in the child, focusing themselves elsewhere.
42
so that the child grows up with a feeling that not only is it not worth cherishing, but also because it hasn't been adequately seen and mirrored,
43
that it doesn't even quite exist.
44
a feeling of unreality is the direct consequence of emotional neglect.
45
Realizing that we lack a stable identity is a sobering realization.
46
But we can, with a fair wind, start to correct the problem at any point.
47
We need to seek out the help of a wise and kindly other person perhaps a good psychotherapist, someone who can study us closely,
48
mirror us properly, and then validate what they see Through their eyes, we can learn to study, perhaps for the first time,
49
how we really feel, and take seriously what we actually want.
50
We can, by being witnessed generously,
51
more often learn to take our own sides and feel increasingly solid inside trusting ourselves more than we trust the crowd,
52
feeling that we might be able to say no,
53
not always swaying in the wind and feeling that we are in possession of some of the ultimate important truths about us.
54
having come to know ourselves like this, we will be a little less hungry for praise, a little less worried by opposition,
55
and a lot more original in our thinking.
56
we will have learned the vital art of both knowing and befriending who we, really are.
57
Our Know Yourself cards can help us to better understand the deepest, most elusive aspects of ourselves.

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。
