The Lion and the Mouse Aesop fable.
Take an English Lesson with Carl https://italki.com/teacher/1947582
Once upon a time there was a lion who was hunting for food in the forest.
In the afternoon he was tired and sleepy,
so he slept under a tree.
A little mouse came and ran on the lion's back not knowing that it disturbed the lion.
The lion woke up and was angry.
He caught the mouse and roared,
"I will eat you up now."

Fear #2 Being afraid of making mistakes

The fear of making mistakes persecutes many people, regardless of their achievements, age and social status. Where does the fear of making a mistake come from, and how to overcome it?

Many people are hesitant to do something serious, not so much because they are afraid of failure, but because of fear of public condemnation or censure.

Often, such anti-motivation is a consequence of a hidden inferiority complex: a person is so dependent on public opinion that he loses the ability to make decisions on his own.

In the podcast I will share some ideas about the fear and what do top managers look for in their employees (since C-level managers are my regular students).

Grab a comfortable sit, make yourself comfortable and dive deep into the recording.

6 tips to build your English vocabulary

TRANSCRIPTION (includes explanation)
These expressions of importance cover a spectrum of formality and tone. In everyday conversation, one might refer to something as "important," "significant," or even employ a casual "crucial" to stress its significance. When something is truly crucial, phrases like "This is absolutely crucial" and "This cannot be overstated" underscore its critical nature. In informal settings, a more relaxed approach may be taken with expressions like "This is a big deal" or "This is a game-changer," indicating a noteworthy event. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "This holds great significance" or "This bears immense importance," emphasizing the gravity of the situation. Politeness tempers the description in expressions such as "This is very important" or "This holds a lot of weight," demonstrating a respectful acknowledgment of its significance. A touch of wit adds a layer of playfulness to the importance, as seen in expressions like "This is kind of a big deal" or "This is a real game-changer." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate the weight of a situation with statements like "This is of considerable importance" or "This holds a certain gravitas," maintaining an air of sophistication. For royalty, the gravity of a matter is conveyed with grace and dignity, as in "This holds great import" or "This is of profound significance," underscoring the formal nature of the description. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

Conversation with Amelia

¿Qué es una muletilla?
En general, son palabras o frases que son repetidas con frecuencia por el interlocutor quien intenta plantear una idea para la cual no encuentra o no tiene las palabras necesarias o acertadas. Las muletillas si son usadas repetitivamente pueden empobrecer el idioma y la comunicación ya que son expresiones innecesarias que no llevan implícito ningún valor o contenido informativo. Estas frases suelen ser vacía y sin sentido ya que se emplean solo por hábito.

¿Cuál es su significado? 
Según el diccionario de la Real Academia Española define muletilla como “voz o frase que se repite mucho por hábito“. Es decir, es una palabra o una frase innecesaria que se repite en una conversación, por costumbre o como apoyo al hablar. 

En realidad, puedes eliminar las muletillas de la frase y no cambia el sentido, mira estos ejemplos:

1. ¿Sabes hablar español, no?
-   Sabes hablar español?

2. A ver, yo te entiendo pero tú sabes, es complicado…
-   Yo te entiendo pero es complicado…

3. El otro día fuimos a cenar en plan todos los amigos juntos.
-   El otro día fuimos a cenar todos los amigos juntos.

Aunque sean innecesarias y sean repetitivas, esto no quiere decir que no se usen en el DÍA A DÍA. La realidad es que todos tenemos preferencias propias en cuanto a las muletillas, normalmente no las elegimos, sino que nos las vamos apropiando conforme nos vamos relacionando con los hablantes nativos.

En definitiva, las muletillas son una pieza más del puzle de la comunicación y del Español.
