🌿 Mini-Exercise: “When Do You Start Performing?” Duration: 2 minutes Many learners don’t notice the exact moment their English shifts from expression to performance. This exercise helps you catch that moment gently — without judgment. 1. Recall your last English conversation Just one. The moment is enough. Ask yourself: “When did I stop expressing myself — and start performing myself?” Don’t force an answer. Let the moment choose you. 2. Notice the shift in your body Where did you feel it? Your chest? Your shoulders? Your breath? Most people feel the “performance moment” before they hear it. 3. Complete one quiet sentence: “I began performing when I felt… ______.” (This one line often reveals more than weeks of studying.) 4. End with a soft reminder: “My voice doesn’t need to impress. It needs to express.”
