1
Is there anything in your life that you feel kind of lost about right now?
2
Like you're lacking some form of clarity and you hate the state because all you want to do is to kind of move forward and have a sense of understanding of what to do,
3
where to go, what decision to take and just knowing, you know?
4
But guess what?
5
There is one important thing you have to do when this happens.
6
When your mind is confused, when you're lost, the last thing you should be doing is actually to think more, think harder, push through.
7
Come on, you know, let's have a resolution.
8
Listen, I did that for the entire 2025 and I kind of ruined my entire year because of that.
9
Because what that made me was to get more stuck.
10
Let's say you have something unresolved.
11
So your natural instinct is to basically think harder and think more about it because your brain kind of thinks like, well, if I just think more, then the answer will come to me, right?
12
But that's like the biggest mind F ever because what it does instead,
13
it makes you step into overthinking and overthinking is basically you just looping in the hamster wheel and not getting anywhere.
14
What that hamster wheel does to you is that it drains you off energy and it actually drains you from any potential clarity because you're just getting more and more tired.
15
You're getting more and more confused.
16
Your thoughts are becoming more and more deluded.
17
Like you think whatever you're doing is super productive.
18
So that's why you keep doing it more.
19
Like, no, no, I just need to think more.
20
I need to think more.
21
But you're just making it worse.
22
Thinking shuts down as soon as overwhelm starts and overwhelm happens when you start thinking more.
23
Do you see the logic?
24
There is one important thing I want you to understand because I have finally understood it.
25
I've been stuck for a long period of time.
26
You know, ladies, I've shared with you how I'm currently in this kind of life transition stage.
27
And so I'm in this in-between phase where basically I've left my old identity behind and now I'm stepping into something unknown and I'm not in my new beginning yet.
28
I'm still in the middle trying to figure things out.
29
And so that leads to a lot of like thinking and thinking and thinking, because you're just trying to find some form of clarity of where you're heading.
30
The problem is that I still don't have any more clarity, even though I've been thinking now for three entire years.
31
Yes.
32
So this video is from experience because I have finally understood this one crucial thing that you have to know.
33
And before I share it, I want you to know that I have a weekly email that I send out called Anna's Aha Moments because I love having these like epiphany moments and I want to share them with you because I hate gatekeeping.
34
So go to annabay.email.com.
35
if you want to subscribe to this free email that I send out every single week.
36
And also if you like more long form conversations, then I invite you to come and join my YouTube memberships page because there I get to really talk freely and just well, uncover a lot of interesting subjects.
37
So come and join me there.
38
I want you to know if there's one thing you have to memorize after this video, video is that clarity does not come from you forcing a resolution.
39
Okay?
40
I know the brain hates the unknown.
41
I know being in some form of nothingness is super stressful and you just want to get yourself out of that state of mind and have some form of clarity.
42
And at this point, you're almost like ready to rush it as long as you can get yourself out of that state.
43
Right?
44
But please don't do that.
45
Okay?
46
Don't do that.
47
That's what I did.
48
That got me just more and more stuck.
49
And what happens is that you're going to just start overthinking, rumination, you name it, and this is not going to be productive.
50
Okay?
51
We went through that.
52
Now this is the part that I know you're not going to like, but I have to tell you because this is the truth.
53
What you do when you feel like you have mental chaos, lack of clarity and simply cognitive overload.
54
Well, ladies, that's when you take a step back.
55
Yep.
56
Now I know some of you are going to be like, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's not for me.
57
Like I know I need to find a solution.
58
No, you don't.
59
You do not go and find a solution when your head or your brain is overactive.
60
Okay.
61
When your brain is overactive, there's not going to be a solution.
62
So what you do is that you take a step back, you pause and you step into this nothingness.
63
Okay.
64
When I say step back, by the way, I'm literally saying that you should put yourself in some form of mental stillness.
65
It can also be environmental stillness, but you have to step into some form of calm.
66
Your mind needs to calm the F down.
67
I'm serious.
68
Yes, you're going to think that this is not productive whatsoever.
69
Now, usually I do not give this advice because I do believe in taking action and being proactive.
70
That's how we move forward in life.
71
But there are exceptions and this is a big time exception.
72
What you need to do is to take a time out, become a little bit passive because that's actually going to be more productive in this case.
73
So what do you do?
74
Well, you stop pushing, you stop trying, you stop thinking, you stop, you know what?
75
You completely just disconnect from it all because you have to just enter this empty space, go and do something else,
76
go and think about something else, change your environment, just do something that interrupts this whole like pattern that you're in, you know, this loop that's just looping right now at this stage.
77
The last thing, please promise me that the last thing you're going to do in that moment is to pick up your phone and be like, okay, I'm just going to take five minutes to just chill a little bit and scroll on social media.
78
No, that's actually the worst thing to do because what happens in that moment is that you actually start overstimulating your system even further.
79
And that is exactly what you have to break.
80
The mind computer is overheating.
81
So you need to kind of calm it down and make it still.
82
I mean, I'm sure you've had this happen to you where you feel like, oh my goodness, I feel so refreshed, you know, because you went on holiday,
83
you completely shut yourself off from work and thinking, or like those moments when you're all of a sudden just gained this massive clarity and you're like, oh, I know now what to do.
84
And that is because you switched off your thinking.
85
You stopped thinking about it.
86
I have this super weird thing.
87
And please let me know in the comments if you have something similar.
88
Every time I go to have a shower, I like to actually lay down in my bathtub while having a shower.
89
And every time I stare into the white bathtub and I stare at my feet,
90
I feel like I'm entering this really strange mental portal where all the answers where all the answers are like penetrating my head and just giving me all these
91
epiphanies after epiphanies.
92
And I'm like, what is going on?
93
Is God talking to me right now?
94
Or what is this?
95
Because all of a sudden I'm having all these answers that I have been forcing to come the entire day.
96
But here in this little pathetic bathtub, I'm seeing everything so clearly.
97
I know, weird, but that's because that bathtub actually acts as a form of nothingness.
98
And that's exactly where you need to step in right now.
99
Whether it is an actual bathtub or you just go for a little walk in the forest, or you do another activity like meditation or whatever, whatever,
100
anything that you know you can turn to that helps you calm down, think about nothing and step into a form of nothingness.
101
Cause that's where you need to be right now.
102
And I bet you, you're going to find more clarity once you do this little exercise.
103
Now, look, these advice are just based on my own toxic mindset that I've been working with so many years.
104
And I have just found ways of how to finally be able to move forward.
105
And I want to share everything that I learned with you.

本课介绍
在这一课中，学习者将通过新的视频内容来提高他们的英语发音和表达能力。视频讨论了在思考混乱时应该如何寻找清晰度，而不是通过强迫自己思考来解决问题。学习者将有机会通过模仿视频中的讲话方式，练习语音和语调，使他们在日常对话中更为流利。
关键词汇与短语

- 迷失 (lost) - 感到困惑或不知道该如何前进。

练习提示
为了提高英语发音，建议学习者进行shadowspeak练习。在观看该视频时，可以使用以下方法来改善发音：
- 选择视频片段的核心句子，反复聆听并模仿说话者的语调与节奏。
- 关注说话者的情感表达和语气变化，这将有助于提升语音流畅度。
- 尝试在较慢的播放速度下进行shadow speech，以便更好地掌握每个单词的发音。
- 定期练习这些句子，以增强记忆，同时提高自信心，这对提高英语发音特别有效。
- 在练习过程中，确保发音自信且清晰，不要害怕犯错，保持积极态度！
通过这些方法，学习者将在表达时变得更加自然，提高他们的英语语言能力，进而在生活中更为流利地交流。
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。
