N3+春日本人は体調を崩す？！

Мой старый друг, мой верный Дьявол,
Пропел мне песенку одну:
— Всю ночь моряк в пучине плавал,
А на заре пошёл ко дну.

Кругом вставали волны-стены,
Спадали, вспенивались вновь,
Пред ним неслась, белее пены,
Его великая любовь.

Он слышал зов, когда он плавал:
«О, верь мне, я не обману»…
Но помни, — молвил умный Дьявол, —
Он на заре пошёл ко дну. —

1906 г.

Self-Fulfilling Prophecy - To Fail or To Succeed?

A self-fulfilling prophecy is an expectation or belief that can influence your behaviors, thus causing the belief to come true.

The idea behind a self-fulfilling prophecy, also known as the Pygmalion effect, is that your belief about what will happen drives the actions that make that outcome ultimately come to pass.

Think a moment and imagine relating the above to your English development, what will it mean?

If you expect everything to go wrong, you might put in less effort or fail to take steps that could turn things around, which means that expecting the worst brings out the worst.

If you expect everything to go right you might be more eager, more enthusiastic and less worried!

Listen to the recording several times and allow the information to sink in and to influence you in it's own way.

Good luck and join my 1-1 trainings to become better and brighter at expressing yourself!

Self-Fulfilling Prophecy - To Fail or To Succeed?

Jorge is shopping at a clothing store.

Salesperson (Lily):
This jacket fits you really well! Would you like to size up and try a bigger size?

Customer (Jorge, confused):
Size up? You mean bigger size?

Lily (nodding):
Yes, exactly! "Size up" just means trying a larger size than the one you have.

Jorge (scratching his head):
Hmm… Size up? You mean, when I grow bigger?

Lily (laughing):
Haha, no, no! "Size up" just means trying a bigger jacket. Not growing, just a bigger size!

Jorge (still confused):
So… Size up means I wear bigger clothes, but I don’t grow taller?

Lily (smiling):
Yes! "Size up" means getting a bigger size of the same jacket. You don’t need to grow taller for that!

Jorge (nodding, still unsure):
Okay, okay, I try bigger size jacket. I think I understand!

Jorge (curious):
By the way, your English is really good. How do you speak so well?

Lily:
Well, I took speaking lessons with Teacher Smith on italki! She’s amazing for improving English.

Jorge:
Really? How I book  lesson with her?

Lily:
It’s super easy, just click on her profile on italki and book a speaking lesson!

Jorge:
Wow, easy? I book it now!
