1
Okay, here's the thing.
2
I have a dilemma.
3
I hope you can maybe give me some input or something, because I've been thinking about this for months.
4
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons.
5
I'm trying to make myself just make a decision.
6
I don't know why it's so hard.
7
We're going to talk about that while I get ready for midsummer.
8
Today's midsummer.
9
I want to have these two braids in the front.
10
I'm going to give that a try
11
and then put a light little makeup on
12
and also take you guys with me today to see what we're doing here in Sweden when we celebrate.
13
For a long time now, I've just been feeling very lost, very stuck.
14
Like, what am I doing with my life?
15
Where do I want things to go?
16
I'm not following the traditional path, which I think that makes me feel more lost because most people by this time,
17
they're married, maybe they have a kid, maybe several kids, and I am just not.
18
I mean, you guys, you're following my dating journey, at least as much as I'm sharing,
19
and you know that the dating front just isn't doing anything for me right now.
20
So I also can't
21
wait for that like i can't pause my life
22
and be like well maybe i'll meet someone and maybe things will change
23
and no we're not doing that because time goes by
24
so fast and you need to do what you want to do
25
and do it now if you can the dilemma is i want to leave stockholm
26
I'm not gonna get into Stockholm is great in so many ways.
27
Yeah, it is.
28
But also It's not so great in many ways
29
and it's not even about it being great
30
or not being great It's more about the fact that I feel like I need some novelty
31
I am getting very very comfortable in my day-to-day
32
and I think I'm maybe getting too comfortable I feel like if I'm this comfortable now
33
where I'm starting to feel lots of friction when it comes to getting out of my comfort zone and doing new things, what will I be like in five or ten years?
34
That kind of scares me.
35
Routine isn't bad.
36
I love routine
37
and this is part of why I just have not been able to make a decision because I love my kitchen, I love my walks, I love the people I see every week,
38
I love the predictability of my routine right now in a way.
39
I feel like I've built a pretty good life for myself
40
and part of me is like why would I go away from that?
41
Why would I change that at all?
42
Why not just live the life I've created, enjoy it and that's it.
43
But part of me is also like, but I just miss being a little lost.
44
Well not mentally lost, because we have plenty of that.
45
Physically lost.
46
Like going to a new place and having to sort of create a new routine and maybe meet some new people, see some new faces, hear maybe a different language
47
and just sort of throw myself out there because i remember
48
when i lived abroad for two years i grew
49
so much i learned so much but not even just
50
that just you know having a good fulfilled life where you've done different things
51
and i feel like if i don't move abroad again now
52
when would i do that
53
when would be the better timing than now i feel like there really isn't a better timing than now
54
because now I'm not tied down by much like I have obviously people
55
that I love here and again my routine and my lovely kitchen
56
and my bed I would miss those things so much
57
and here's also another thing that happens when you grow older is
58
that you are not as willing to be uncomfortable
59
if you can avoid it like when I moved abroad
60
when I was 20 21 I didn't really care about the fact
61
that I was going to share a fridge with six seven other people
62
and when i say moving i don't even know for how long maybe a temporarily move temporary move maybe a few months,
63
six months, maybe a year, maybe longer, you never know.
64
When you make a big life decision, it could go either way.
65
Let's say you move abroad.
66
You could move, you could feel miserable and sad
67
and like you don't fit in and you can feel like maybe it wasn't mistaken, you just want to go back home and it wasn't at all what you expected, that could happen.
68
What could also happen is that you could go somewhere
69
and it could be this amazing experience where you're like thank god I did that, I'm so happy, this was the best thing that could have ever happened to me, look at all these people that I've met,
70
look at this life that I've built in the new grocery stores
71
and yeah maybe my bed isn't that comfortable but it's my bed in this new city.
72
How lucky am I to even be here?
73
Or you could fall somewhere in the middle where you could be like yeah it's a good experience, I'm enjoying it, I could be here for five months but you know then I'll be happy to go back home.
74
You don't know in advance and that's what makes every decision
75
so scary because you don't have any information in advance
76
and this goes for any leap of faith that you take in your life.
77
You can try to intellectualize and do research and pros and cons list and do all the planning.
78
And that is good to an extent because you want to be prepared.
79
You don't want to just be
80
dumb spontaneous as i call it
81
but then you reach a point where it's like now it's
82
not really up to me anymore i can't really control anything
83
behind this point now it's just up to faith life god destiny whatever you might call it
84
and that's where i think a lot of people pump the brakes
85
and they're like okay am i willing to risk things not going the way that i want them to go
86
the way that I hope for them to go.
87
What if it's a waste?
88
What if it's a bad decision?
89
Another thing that I think about a lot is that, is it Stockholm or is it me?
90
That one is a little bit painful.
91
And it's a little bit one, like, I don't want to really think about it.
92
Because I'm like, there's no way it could be me.
93
I am a little bit notorious for moving around quite a bit.
94
Not abroad, but, you know, within my city.
95
So I also know that I sort of have a bit of a hard time just settling.
96
But also, why would I want to settle?
97
Is that just because it's the norm?
98
Like, oh, you should settle.
99
You're now at the age where you should just chill out.
100
you know, find someone, build a life.
101
And to an extent, honestly, I'm like, you know, I wish that's what I wanted.
102
I wish that's what I wanted because it sounds, I don't want to say less stressful.
103
I feel like that sort of doesn't do justice to how hard that is.
104
Obviously, kids, family, it's not easy.
105
That is not, not what I'm saying.
106
But then you at least know the route
107
that you want to take that's the only thing i'm talking about then you know
108
that that's what you want and i wish i knew
109
that that's what i want but it's not at least right now
110
and is that cope am i coping
111
because i'm like i'm never gonna find someone anyway
112
and i don't know like let's just let's just pretend like that's not what i want
113
because that hurts less i don't know i don't think so that's not what it feels like to me But realistically, how would I know?
114
We are, as humans, very, very good at deceiving ourselves.
115
So the things that you think you know, you may not actually know.
116
But when I close my eyes, what excites me more is the thought of going somewhere new,
117
stepping out an airport, and just smelling newness. and being like let's
118
see let's
119
see am
120
i escaping myself am i moving from place to place to place and still not feeling fulfilled in me, like, maybe that place, maybe if I go there.
121
Will this feeling, this longing that I can't really name, follow me?
122
Or is it really the location?
123
Is it my environment that just isn't feeding me right now?
124
I feel like I can't be my best self here in a way.
125
Something about being here makes me feel boxed in in a way, or like I'm being held back in a way.
126
I can't really put my finger on it.
127
Not that it's too small necessarily.
128
I mean Stockholm isn't… Stockholm is a great hub for a lot of things
129
and a lot of creatives and things like that, but somehow, for some reason, it still kind of feels a little small right now.
130
Or is it just that my life in Stockholm feels small?
131
I am not creating the best life that I could be creating here.
132
I don't even have one clear city in mind.
133
I would have to try out a few different places.
134
Or just make up my mind and just go for it.
135
Because maybe it's gotten to a point where this whole research part of my brain,
136
the whole making lists and weighing pros and cons and going back and forth, is actually becoming just avoidance and procrastination.
137
And maybe it's actually no longer productive.
138
I have to cut my brows.

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。
