14
I just got back from a trip to LA.
15
I've been traveling a lot lately and while it's been fun I'm very happy to be home.
16
While I was there I met up with a new creator friend Megan Tan in person for the first time ever.
17
It was such an adventure and I think we had an even better time than we thought we would.
18
Today I want to talk about the one mindset shift that completely changed my 20s.
19
For the past several years,
20
I've had this personal motto that goes,
21
say yes now, figure it out later.
22
I've talked about it once on here before,
23
and it is a motto that I hold very close to my heart
24
and has been responsible for many events in my life.
25
It's my little tattoo on my wrist,
26
and I cannot believe it's already been two years since I got this thing.
27
That's crazy.
28
A lot has changed since then,
29
and I always find it very interesting to revisit themes at different phases in my life and see if it's still relevant,
30
if things have changed, or if it's reinforced.
31
And for this in particular there have been a few things that have reminded me of it.
32
When I had first come up with the phrase,
33
figure it out later, it was after I had dropped out of college and was slowly finding my way in the world.
34
I had an idea of what I wanted to do,
35
but I wasn't great at putting myself out there.
36
I cared way too much about what people thought.
37
I was way too in my head about some things,
38
and I struggled to really find my voice.
39
And throughout this time, Figure It Out was my anchor.
40
It was a way of reminding myself to just make a decision,
41
and I will figure it out when I get there.
42
Sort of having this trust in yourself while taking these leaps of faith
43
and periodically it will pop in and out of my life.
44
I think we inherently know when we connect with the idea of something.
45
It feels exciting and terrifying all at once.
46
But before we even have the chance to pursue it,
47
we often hold ourselves back because we don't know how it will turn out.
48
When Megan asked me to go on a trip to the west coast,
49
there was a moment where I felt hesitant to go.
50
It had been a while since I've done anything like that.
51
We had only just begun to know each other and I was considering saying no.
52
But you never know what an opportunity will lead to,
53
and you never know how impactful something will be till after you've done it.
54
There could be a million different things that could make it the wrong choice,
55
but you only need a few good reasons for it to be right.
56
When it comes to these giant leaps of faith,
57
quitting your job, taking the trip,
58
meeting someone for the first time,
59
it always leads back to this four-letter word, risk.
60
Beautiful outside.
61
There was a period of my life where I was feeling very stagnant.
62
I wasn't meeting new people or experiencing new things,
63
but I was also not putting myself out there at the same time.
64
It's so easy to be comfortable in your bubble,
65
but I think it's also important not to take it too far,
66
and it's not about saying yes to everything,
67
but it's important to know when something will be a healthy push.
68
It can be intimidating to open yourself up,
69
to show the world who you are and not know how it's gonna be received.
70
This place.
71
But never going to know what's on the other side unless we're willing to take
72
that first step and see where that tells us where to go next.
73
The beauty of putting yourself out there is
74
that it also forces you to be adaptable and creative in ways you may have not expected.
75
It's sunny California.
76
It opens you up to seeing things in a different way,
77
learning from different people, and maybe even finding things you weren't even looking for.
78
There will always be some level of risk involved
79
when it comes to doing something completely out of the ordinary from what we're used to.
80
But honestly, I think that's just the name of the game.
81
And depending on what season of life we're in,
82
it's either gonna be a yes or a no. And I think both answers are valid.
83
It depends just where you're at in life.
84
And if it's a yes,
85
then sometimes it'll work and sometimes it won't.
86
But either way, you'll learn something from it.
87
My creative journey so far has been full of moments where I had to try different things and experiment,
88
whether it was collaborating with new people,
89
exploring different styles, or diving into new formats.
90
Many of the ideas that I had this year,
91
including my collab with Megan,
92
have been made possible with the support of Epidemic Sound,
93
who has provided me with so much of my soundtrack over the past year,
94
so a huge thank you to them.
95
Using Epidemic Sound allowed me to focus more on my creativity,
96
knowing that I had access to a huge library of licensed music
97
and sound effects that could fit any vibe that I'm going for.
98
Epidemic makes things incredibly easy,
99
from being able to organize my own project playlists to what's probably my favorite feature,
100
downloading stems of a song.
101
As I've grown as a creator,
102
I've learned that having reliable tools like Epidemic Sound is so crucial.
103
It's helped me stay true to my creative vision without second guessing myself.
104
When they hooked it up,
105
I was able to get a 25% off code off of yearly plans,
106
but it is only available for this week.
107
So if you've been thinking about it, then get on it.
108
Just remember to paste in the code.
109
So if you are ready to bring your stories to life,
110
then I highly, highly recommend Epidemic Sound.
111
And you can check them out using the link in my description.
112
There's a certain naive confidence you have when you just enter your 20s,
113
unlike any other part of your life.
114
It's the easiest to lose and the longest to get back,
115
and if there was one part of that era I could take to the next,
116
I think it probably would be that.
117
It is quite the claim that this is the mindset that helped me navigate my 20s out of everything else.
118
But looking back, I can't imagine all the things I would have missed out on,
119
and all the things that led to another since then.
120
It is truly one of the few themes in my life that keep on reoccurring,
121
in between all the years and different contexts and routes.
122
And each time still holds this universal truth,
123
that it starts with what you think you can do,
124
but ends with finding out.
125
So I hope you enjoyed this video.
126
It was very fun to revisit a topic and see where I was at with it.
127
Safe to say, my trip to California with Megan was not a disaster.
128
In fact, it was the complete opposite.
129
I guess you got to see a little bit of the behind the scenes in this video,
130
but Megan made a beautiful video while we were on our trip in California.
131
So if you haven't seen that yet,
132
then please check it out.
133
As always, thank you for watching.
134
You can find me on Instagram at Life of Risa in the meantime,
135
and I will see you in the next one.
136
Bye!
137
you

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。
