[1] 00:01Hi everybody. I have a quick question for you.
[2] 00:05What do think about your spoken English?
[3] 00:08Do you think your English is bad?
[4] 00:11A lot of people who want to speak English think this way.
[5] 00:14Because when they speak, they have trouble coming up with words.
[6] 00:18They make a lot of mistakes.
[7] 00:20Their sentence structure is just wrong.
[10] 00:30Now If you are one of those people--if you think there's no way to improve your English,
[11] 00:36then I have something to tell you.
[12] 00:37You're wrong! You are just plain wrong.
[13] 00:42And In this video, I'm going to tell you why.
[14] 00:45Now I want you to think about experts and top performers in any field.
[15] 00:50Think about world class athletes like Tiger Woods or Michael Jordan.
[16] 00:55Here's my question for you:
[17] 00:57How good do you think they were in the beginning?
[18] 01:01Do you think they were excellent right from the start?
[20] 01:08They were terrible in the beginning.
[21] 01:11Tiger Woods was bad at golf when he began.
[22] 01:16Michael Jordan was bad at basketball when he began.
[23] 01:20The bottle line is this: when you start out something new, you're going to suck...really
[25] 01:27You're going to make mistakes.
[26] 01:29You're going to look stupid.
[27] 01:32And the only way to get better is to keep doing it.
[28] 01:36And you'll get better over time.
[29] 01:39This is the truth. And it applies to everybody.
[30] 01:43But here's the most important question:
[33] 01:53How is it possible that there can be English learners who are similar to each others--I
[35] 02:05managed to become good at spoken English while others cannot speak English at all?
[36] 02:12What's the difference?
[37] 02:14The answer is one word: Action.
[39] 02:25They keep learning. They keep practicing.
[40] 02:28Because they know that even though they are not good at speaking today, they're going
[41] 02:33to get better if they keep learning and practicing. So they take massive action.
[42] 02:41Unsuccessful people, on the other hand, don't take action very much.
[43] 02:44They try to speak English a little bit. They try to practice a little bit.
[44] 02:50But they quit very quickly.
[45] 02:52They start speaking and they start having trouble. They start making mistakes.
[46] 02:56And then they say "Oh....English is just not for me. It's too difficult. I'm just not good
[48] 03:03And then they quit. They just give up immediately.
[49] 03:06So here's my challenge to you: After you watch this video, I want you talk
[50] 03:12about anything in English.
[51] 03:14And you just do it by yourself.
[52] 03:16You don't need to find someone to do it with to you.
[53] 03:20You can talk about anything you want.
[54] 03:22You can talk about yourself.
[55] 03:24You can talk about what happened yesterday.
[56] 03:27Or maybe you can talk about what you've learned from this video.
[57] 03:31It doesn't matter what you talk about.
[58] 03:33What matters is that you take action.
[59] 03:36And when you do that, I want you to keep two things in mind.
[60] 03:40Number one: you're going to suck.
[61] 03:44Just keep in mind that you're going make mistakes.
[62] 03:47You're going to say something confusing.
[63] 03:50Maybe you won't be able to speak at all.
[64] 03:54But be OK with that. That's normal.
[65] 03:58Everybody has to go through that.
[66] 03:59I mean this is my first Youtube video and as you can see, my drawing sucks.
[67] 04:06It's terrible. But I'm OK with that. I accept it.
[68] 04:10And you should be OK with your speaking as well.
[69] 04:14The second thing I want you to keep in mind is to keep taking action.
[70] 04:19Just keep learning--keep practicing.
[71] 04:22Because it doesn't matter if you suck today.
[72] 04:25The present does not equal the future.
[74] 04:34If you keep taking action, I guarantee that you will improve.
[75] 04:39You will get better.
[76] 04:40I mean the same is true for my drawing.
[77] 04:42It sucks today. But if I keep drawing--if I keep practicing, I'm going to get better.
[78] 04:48OK. So that's my challenge to you.
[79] 04:51And we've come to the the end of this video.
