Hey everyone! Welcome back to The English Leap Podcast!

0:05.70 – 0:09.47 (3.8s)

your go-to English podcast for learning English and improving your life.

0:09.70 – 0:13.83 (4.1s)

I’m Erin, and as always, I’m joined by my fantastic co-host, Evan.

0:14.17 – 0:19.87 (5.7s)

Evan, how are you doing today?

0:20.30 – 0:22.83 (2.5s)

Hey, Erin! I’m doing great—feeling energized and ready for today’s topic. How about you?

0:23.57 – 0:29.53 (6.0s)

I’m doing well too!

0:29.60 – 0:31.13 (1.5s)

You know, I had this moment yesterday where I just sat down and thought— why does it feel like some people completely turn their lives around while others stay stuck in the same place?

0:31.47 – 0:42.23 (10.8s)

Oh, I’ve had that thought too!

0:42.80 – 0:44.90 (2.1s)

You see someone go from struggling to successful, and you wonder—what’s their secret?

0:45.13 – 0:50.90 (5.8s)

Are they just lucky? Or is there something they’re doing differently?

0:51.07 – 0:55.27 (4.2s)

Exactly! And then I started thinking about when I was learning English.

0:55.60 – 1:00.77 (5.2s)

At first, it felt impossible—so many words, so many rules.

1:01.37 – 1:06.10 (4.7s)

But then, little by little, things started making sense.

1:07.10 – 1:10.37 (3.3s)

That’s so true. When I first started learning, I kept thinking, "If I just knew more words, I’d be fluent." But it wasn’t just about vocabulary—it was about building habits, changing my mindset, and actually using what I learned.

1:10.97 – 1:28.37 (17.4s)

And that’s when it hit me—life is the same way! Big transformations don’t happen overnight.

1:28.40 – 1:36.87 (8.5s)

It’s not about one huge decision. It’s about the little changes we make every day.

1:37.10 – 1:42.50 (5.4s)

And that’s exactly what we’re talking about today—how to change your life.

1:43.00 – 1:47.50 (4.5s)

And before we jump in, we have something special for you!

1:47.60 – 1:51.43 (3.8s)

We’ve created a free PDF packed with practical exercises to help you take real steps to change your life.

1:51.57 – 1:58.97 (7.4s)

It includes: Key Takeaways from today’s discussion, comprehension questions to test your understanding and grammar exercises to build confidence in your English skills!

1:58.97 – 2:10.90 (11.9s)

And that’s not all! We’re also introducing some intermediate-level words and phrases in today’s episode.

2:11.33 – 2:18.63 (7.3s)

That’s right! And we’ll take a closer look at them later in Charlotte’s Vocabulary Section, where Charlotte will break down those words and phrases, explain their meaning, and show how to use them in real-life conversations.

2:19.27 – 2:33.83 (14.6s)

So stick around—by the end of this episode, not only will you have practical steps to change your life, but you’ll also have new English vocabulary to help you express your ideas even better!

2:34.13 – 2:47.57 (13.4s)

m-hmm! You know, Erin, thinking about what we just talked about— how life changes little by little—it makes me wonder why so many people struggle to make those changes in the first place.

2:47.63 – 3:00.27 (12.6s)

That’s a great question! Change sounds exciting, right?

3:00.27 – 3:04.20 (3.9s)

A fresh start, a new beginning. But here’s the truth—most people never actually make those changes.

3:04.47 – 3:11.83 (7.4s)

Why? Because change is hard. Let’s talk about the common reasons people feel stuck.

3:12.60 – 3:19.27 (6.7s)

Yeah! First, there is fear of failure.

3:19.90 – 3:23.77 (3.9s)

Many people ask, “What if I try and fail?” But what if you try and succeed? Every successful person has failed along the way. The difference is—they kept going.

3:24.00 – 3:36.53 (12.5s)

Exactly! The second reason is lack of direction.

3:36.57 – 3:40.63 (4.1s)

Some people know they want a better life but don’t know where to start.

3:41.00 – 3:44.70 (3.7s)

They think they need a perfect plan before taking action.

3:45.10 – 3:48.40 (3.3s)

And then there’s negative self-talk—saying things like, “I’ll never be good at this,” or “I’m just not a language person.” These thoughts stop progress before it even begins.

3:49.17 – 4:00.67 (11.5s)

Finally, one of the biggest traps—waiting for motivation.

4:00.87 – 4:05.20 (4.3s)

People say, “I’ll start when I feel ready.” But here’s a secret: Motivation comes AFTER action, not before.

4:05.87 – 4:15.03 (9.2s)

That reminds me of when I struggled with a personal challenge.

4:15.77 – 4:19.10 (3.3s)

I kept waiting for the “perfect moment” to start.

4:19.40 – 4:22.77 (3.4s)

But that moment never came—until I just took the first step.

4:23.13 – 4:27.23 (4.1s)

And once I did, everything started falling into place.

4:27.50 – 4:31.23 (3.7s)

That’s a great point! And I remember feeling the same when I was learning English.

4:31.33 – 4:36.77 (5.4s)

At first, I thought, “I’m not good at this,” but then I realized—the only way to get better was to actually start practicing Exactly! And that brings us to our key lesson: Understanding what’s holding you back is the first step to changing your life.

4:37.40 – 4:57.20 (19.8s)

Once you recognize these barriers, you can start working on breaking them down.

4:57.33 – 5:02.47 (5.1s)

So, Evan, now that we understand what holds people back, the next big question is—how do we actually start making those changes?

5:02.53 – 5:12.23 (9.7s)

That’s where small, daily improvements come in.

5:12.80 – 5:15.87 (3.1s)

People often think they need a dramatic transformation overnight, but real change happens gradually.

5:16.37 – 5:22.90 (6.5s)

Have you heard of the 1% rule?

5:23.27 – 5:25.60 (2.3s)

Yes! If you improve just 1% every day, you’ll be 37 times better in a year!

5:25.87 – 5:32.30 (6.4s)

That’s because small efforts compound over time, just like interest in a bank account.

5:32.53 – 5:37.83 (5.3s)

Exactly! And that ties into the power of habits.

5:38.13 – 5:42.17 (4.0s)

James Clear talks about this in Atomic Habits—how habits shape our identity.

5:42.53 – 5:47.97 (5.4s)

Small changes may not seem big at first, but they redefine who you are over time.

5:48.27 – 5:55.00 (6.7s)

Right! Like reading just 10 minutes a day, practicing English for 5 minutes daily, or even replacing negative thoughts with positive affirmations.

5:55.10 – 6:04.87 (9.8s)

And I love real-life examples. I know someone who became fluent in English just by listening to podcasts every day.

6:05.20 – 6:12.87 (7.7s)

They didn’t start with an intense study plan—just consistent small steps.

6:13.17 – 6:18.00 (4.8s)

That’s so inspiring! The takeaway here is, small consistent actions lead to big results over time.

6:18.33 – 6:26.00 (7.7s)

So if you’re listening and wondering where to start—just pick one small habit today!

6:26.37 – 6:32.03 (5.7s)

Exactly! And you know, Erin, while taking action is important, there's something even more fundamental—our mindset.

6:32.53 – 6:41.17 (8.6s)

Because let’s be honest, how we think about change makes all the difference.

6:41.27 – 6:45.17 (3.9s)

Absolutely! There’s something called the Growth Mindset vs. Fixed Mindset.

6:45.30 – 6:51.00 (5.7s)

If you have a growth mindset, you believe “I can improve.” But if you have a fixed mindset, you think “I’ll never be good at this.” That’s a huge difference! And another thing—our brain is wired to focus on what we train it to notice.

6:51.70 – 7:08.30 (16.6s)

Have you heard of the Reticular Activating System (RAS)?

7:08.37 – 7:11.23 (2.9s)

Yes! It’s why when you learn a new word, you suddenly hear it everywhere.

7:11.67 – 7:17.17 (5.5s)

Your brain filters information based on what you focus on.

7:17.57 – 7:21.07 (3.5s)

So if you keep telling yourself “I can’t do this,” your brain will find evidence to prove it.

7:21.47 – 7:27.23 (5.8s)

But if you say “I am improving every day,” your brain will focus on that progress instead.

7:27.47 – 7:33.47 (6.0s)

That’s why reprogramming your mind is so powerful!

7:33.80 – 7:37.57 (3.8s)

Three great ways to do that are affirmations, visualization, and gratitude.

7:38.27 – 7:43.70 (5.4s)

Right! Positive self-talk like “I am getting better every day” helps reshape our thoughts.

7:44.37 – 7:50.70 (6.3s)

Visualization—seeing yourself succeed—tricks your brain into believing it’s possible.

7:50.73 – 7:56.27 (5.5s)

And don’t forget gratitude practice!

7:56.40 – 7:58.63 (2.2s)

When you focus on what’s going well, you train your brain to see opportunities instead of obstacles.

7:58.73 – 8:04.47 (5.7s)

That’s the power of mindset!

8:05.30 – 8:07.20 (1.9s)

It’s not magic—it’s about training your brain to work for you, not against you.

8:07.20 – 8:12.93 (5.7s)

So true! Now that we’ve talked about the power of mindset, there’s something else that holds people back— waiting for the right moment to start.

8:13.03 – 8:23.23 (10.2s)

Yes! So many people believe that they need to be completely ready before they take action.

8:24.37 – 8:31.00 (6.6s)

But here’s the truth—you will never feel fully ready.

8:31.00 – 8:35.00 (4.0s)

Exactly! Progress comes before confidence.

8:35.13 – 8:38.90 (3.8s)

When I was learning English, I hesitated to start speaking because I felt like I wasn’t ready.

8:39.47 – 8:44.80 (5.3s)

I kept thinking, “What if I make mistakes?” But the more I waited, the harder it became.

8:45.13 – 8:51.80 (6.7s)

That’s so relatable! But when you finally took that first step, what happened?

8:52.33 – 8:58.30 (6.0s)

Well, once I started speaking, I realized that making mistakes was part of the learning process.

8:58.40 – 9:04.80 (6.4s)

Each conversation, even with errors, built my confidence. I wasn’t perfect, but I was improving.

9:05.47 – 9:13.30 (7.8s)

And that’s the key! There’s a concept I love—“Done is better than perfect.” Too many people delay action because they want everything to be just right.

9:13.30 – 9:23.67 (10.4s)

But in reality, imperfect action is always better than no action.

9:23.93 – 9:29.10 (5.2s)

Right! If you wait for perfection, you’ll never get started.

9:29.17 – 9:33.63 (4.5s)

Whether it’s learning English, starting a new habit, or making a big life change—just begin!

9:33.70 – 9:40.27 (6.6s)

Small steps will lead to big improvements over time.

9:40.63 – 9:43.87 (3.2s)

So here’s a quick challenge for you, our listeners—Think of one thing you’ve been postponing.

9:44.27 – 9:49.50 (5.2s)

It could be practicing English, starting a workout routine, or even reaching out to someone for help.

9:49.50 – 9:55.47 (6.0s)

And then—just take one small step today! Not tomorrow, not next week—today.

9:55.70 – 10:03.47 (7.8s)

Because action leads to momentum, and momentum leads to confidence.

10:04.00 – 10:08.80 (4.8s)

That’s right! Small, consistent actions over time create massive change.

10:09.33 – 10:15.07 (5.7s)

So don’t wait for the perfect moment—make today the day you start.

10:15.13 – 10:19.87 (4.7s)

Speaking of taking action, have you ever noticed how much our surroundings shape our habits and decisions?

10:20.33 – 10:26.77 (6.4s)

It’s not just about what we do, but who and what we surround ourselves with.

10:27.17 – 10:32.10 (4.9s)

Absolutely! The people you surround yourself with, the content you consume, and the mindset you adopt all play a huge role in shaping your life.

10:32.77 – 10:42.87 (10.1s)

Yes! There’s a famous saying, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” If you’re surrounded by negative, unmotivated people, it’s hard to stay motivated.

10:42.93 – 10:55.27 (12.3s)

But if you’re around positive, goal-driven individuals, their energy and habits will rub off on you.

10:55.67 – 11:01.50 (5.8s)

That’s so true!

11:02.00 – 11:03.37 (1.4s)

100

So, how can we create an environment that supports growth?

11:03.43 – 11:07.70 (4.3s)

101

First, start by following inspirational people.

11:07.97 – 11:11.40 (3.4s)

102

Whether it’s authors, speakers, or even social media accounts, exposing yourself to positive influences will shift your mindset over time.

11:11.40 – 11:20.10 (8.7s)

103

Absolutely! And joining online learning communities is another great way to stay motivated.

11:20.47 – 11:26.03 (5.6s)

104

There are so many groups out there for English learners, book clubs, and personal development.

11:26.17 – 11:31.87 (5.7s)

105

When you’re part of a community that values growth, you naturally start improving too.

11:32.37 – 11:37.43 (5.1s)

106

And just as important as adding positive influences is reducing exposure to negativity.

11:37.97 – 11:43.83 (5.9s)

107

That could mean limiting time spent with people who constantly complain or even cutting down on negative news and social media that drain your energy.

11:44.27 – 11:54.87 (10.6s)

108

m-hmm! That reminds me of when I was learning English—I felt stuck until I joined an English learning community.

11:54.97 – 12:01.97 (7.0s)

109

Suddenly, I had people to practice with, share struggles, and celebrate progress.

12:02.80 – 12:08.03 (5.2s)

110

That made all the difference!

12:08.57 – 12:10.37 (1.8s)

111

That’s such a great example!

12:10.97 – 12:12.87 (1.9s)

112

The right environment creates momentum, making it easier to grow and stay on track.

12:13.00 – 12:18.70 (5.7s)

113

So, here’s something to think about—who are the five people you spend the most time with?

12:19.00 – 12:24.87 (5.9s)

114

Are they helping you grow, or are they holding you back?

12:25.37 – 12:28.57 (3.2s)

115

If they’re not pushing you to be better, it might be time to make some adjustments.

12:29.07 – 12:33.80 (4.7s)

116

Surround yourself with people and influences that inspire and uplift you.

12:34.33 – 12:39.03 (4.7s)

117

And speaking of inspiration, sometimes learning new words and phrases can help us articulate our goals and mindset even better.

12:39.40 – 12:47.00 (7.6s)

118

That’s why we have Charlotte here to break down some key vocabulary from today’s discussion!

12:47.47 – 12:52.57 (5.1s)

15:29.30 – 15:33.60 (4.3s)

125

So, Evan, if we had to leave our listeners with one key takeaway from today’s episode, what would it be?

15:33.80 – 15:40.67 (6.9s)

126

I’d say it’s this—you have more control over your life than you think.

15:40.83 – 15:45.83 (5.0s)

127

Small changes, the right mindset, and a strong environment can completely transform your life.

15:45.97 – 15:52.10 (6.1s)

128

That’s so true!

15:52.37 – 15:53.77 (1.4s)

129

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。

如何在ShadowingEnglish上有效练习

选择您的视频： 挑选一段语音清晰、自然的YouTube视频。TED演讲，BBC新闻，电影片段，播客或雅思口语范例都很好。将URL粘贴到搜索栏中。从较短的视频（短于5分钟）以及您真正感兴趣的内容开始——兴趣是最重要的导师。
先听，理解上下文： 第一次听的时候，将速度保持在1倍速并仅仅倾听。还不要尝试重复。专注于理解其含义，收集新词汇，并注意讲话人如何强调单词，连读声音及使用停顿。
设置跟读模式：
- 等待模式：选择 +3s 或 +5s ——在每句话播放完毕后，视频会自动暂停以便您有时间大声重复它。如果您想完全控制并在每次重复后由您自己点击下一步，请选择 手动。
- 字幕同步：YouTube字幕有时会在音频前或后略微出现。使用 ±100ms 使它们完美对齐以助您准确跟读。
大声跟读（核心练习）： 这是真正发生改变的一步。当一个句子播放出来立刻——或在暂停期间——大声、清晰且自信地重复出来。千万不要只是张张嘴：要模仿说话者的准确节奏、重音、音高和连读。力求听上去就像说话者的影子，而不仅是逐字背诵。使用重复功能多次练习同一个句子，直到感觉自然为止。
提高难度： 当练习段落变得相对舒适后，就去挑战自我。将速度增加至 <code>1.25x</code> 或甚至 <code>1.5x</code> 以训练高速语言反射。或者将等待模式调整为 <code>关闭</code> 以进行连续跟读——这是最进阶同样收益最大的模式。持续的每日15–30分钟的练习将可以在几周内产生可见的效果。
