學英語的三種健康心態

(1)要有自信; (2)要像是學騎腳踏車一樣; (3) 別忘記自己是台灣人,不必當外國人!

大多數學英語台灣人的我們都不會就讀外文系,也不會出國留學,但是我們想學好英語,因為要提升競爭力。英語是工具、是技術,因此學習的效率及效果非常重要,超凡遠距創辦人李其興Paul Lee在屏東鄉下長大,不曾出國留學,多年來從事建築業,但現在全心投入發展全文輸入輸出訓練,幫助台灣學習英語的孩子,因為有著2030雙語國家的願景,我們到時要成為做好準備的那一群。

Great Minds Discuss Ideas, Average Minds Events, Small Minds People!

應用單字

  1. sarcastic諷刺的
  2. solution解決方案
  3. backstab背後道是非
  4. criticize批評
  5. shame羞辱
  6. comparison比較
  7. detrimental破壞的
  8. fallacy誤解

To know what you are, first let’s define “ideas,” “events,” and “people.”

Discussing people here means to talk about a person, usually in a negative, sarcastic way. Discussing events means to talk about what happen in our life and how those things cause problems to us. Discussing ideas means to find out what is behind an event, for example, the cause or solutions to the problems. Don’t be the small minds!

Unfortunately we are surrounded by them in our life. They follow celebrity gossip, start office politics, and backstab and criticize others. Online, they shame or attack each other. In real life, they make comparisons and complaints about this and that. They are happy with others’ failures. Small minds are judgmental, get offended easily and tend to reiterate what has already happened. They are good at identifying others’ mistake, blaming others, yet they have no solution. Small minds discuss something that seems interesting, but detrimental to their relationship with others and family. Average minds look beyond people and focus on events. They identity facts, start conversation, and provide opinion based on the facts.

Yet it is a fallacy that just discussing events makes people smart. It probably does, but we can be smarter if we offer solutions to the problems. Great minds find solutions to problems, even if the problems don’t seem to relate to them. Stay average, but try to move closer to the great. Stay average, but prevent yourself from being the small.

Change your words, Change your world!

改變你說的話,改變你的世界!

  1. mindset思維模式
  2. negative負面
  3. setback挫折
  4. daunting令人氣餒的
  5. challenge挑戰
  6. forwardlooking前瞻性的
  7. hatred仇恨
  8. orchestrate策畫
  9. fruition實現

We can change the words we use to change our mindset. No matter whether we talk to others or to ourselves. Mindset is how you see the world and how you see yourself in the world. With a negative mindset, our life seems difficult, small setbacks feel like failures, new situations feel daunting, and trying feels hopeless. With a positive mindset, mistakes are what we learn from, something new is an exciting challenge, hard work brings results, and our world is a great place.

Changing your mindset can be simple. You just need to change the words you use. Your choice of words is an important way to create a happy world around you. You can help your children, students, and friends to develop a positive mindset. You just need to change the words you say to them and help them to change the words that they say. Here are some examples of how to turn around words: ‘It is too hard’ becomes ‘It may take some time and effort.’ ‘You made a mistake’ becomes ‘Hey, mistakes help you improve.’ This creates a 180 degree turn around from a negative, hopeless feeling to a positive, forward-looking view.

Words are powerful and our brains believe what we hear. The right words spoken in the right way can bring us love, money and respect, while the wrong words—or even the right words spoken in the wrong way — can lead people to argument, distrust, or hatred. We must carefully orchestrate our speech if we want to achieve our goals and bring our dreams to fruition.” Help your children, family, people around you and yourself to hear the right words that are going to create your happy world.

Every word matters.

我們可以改變我們說的話來改變我們的思維模式,無論我們是對他人說話或是對自己,思維模式就是你如何看這個世界及如何看在這世界的自己。帶著負面思維模式,我們會覺得人生很難,小小挫折就像是大大失敗,新的處境令人感到氣餒,任何嘗試都是無望的。帶著正思維模式,錯誤可讓我們從中學習,覺得新事務是很棒的挑戰,覺得辛苦會帶來成果,我們的世界很美好。

要改變你的思維模式很簡單,只需要改變你說話時所使用的字,選擇你說話時所用的字是很重要的,選擇用字可以在你周邊創造快樂環境,你可以幫助你的孩子、學生、或朋友

發展正面思維模式。你只需要改變你說話的方式以及幫助他們改變他們說話的方式,這裡有幾個如何轉變用字的例子,「這太難了!」 轉變成 「這可能需要一些時間及努力」,「你錯了!」 轉變成 「錯誤有助於你改善」,這樣能創造180度的轉變,從一種負面的、無望的感受轉變成正面的、前瞻性的看法。

文字是很有力量的,而我們的大腦相信我們聽到的字,對的話語用正確的方式表達能帶給我們愛、金錢以及尊敬,然而不對的話語,或甚至是對的話語用不正確的方式表達,會帶給當事人爭論、不信任、及仇恨,我們必須警慎細心策畫演說,如果我們想要,達成目標以及讓夢想實現,幫助你的孩子、家庭、身邊的人、還有自己,讓大家都能聽到正確的話語,創造你的快樂世界。

每個字都很重要!

An Eskimo boy becomes a man when he kills his first polar bear. The polar bear, which may be nine feet long and weigh 1,000 pounds, is a very dangerous animal. To kill one takes a great deal of courage and skill. The boy who can kill a polar bear has developed the skills and courage needed to be a hunter—and a man. Polar bears give the Eskimos meat to eat, skins for clothing, and oil for heating and lighting. A boy who can provide all these things has certainly become a man.

The population of chimpanzee in the wild is shrinking because it is hunted to be sold. For every chimp that is taken alive, five to ten chimps die. In the past fifty years, Africans have sold three to four thousand chimps for use in business and experiments. If this practice continues, the chimp may become extinct. The United States has put the chimpanzee on the endangered animals list, which will make it against the law to sell them to the United States. Once on the list, they will have a better chance to survive.

Every year Americans eat over seven hundred million gallons of ice cream. There are more than two hundred flavors for them to choose from. Two very popular flavors are strawberry and chocolate.

Does using pictures for writing sound interesting to you? The people in Egypt did it a long time ago. This ancient writing system is called hieroglyphics, or picture writing. In this old Egyptian system, each picture stood for an idea. People carved these picture words on temple walls and in other places where people often got together. The pictures told stories about the Egyptian gods and kings. They also told stories about animals. People used the picture words to keep records of other business information.
