外婆，好想多一些了解你

有外婆的夏天，格外像夏天，温和的胖老太太讲话轻声细语，走路没有声响，静静地在屋里削土豆、泡茶、剥豆子。我们一放暑假就扎堆儿去乡下。
早上外婆会叫我或我妹去摸几个鸡蛋，刚生的蛋还热热的。外婆常给我们做米酒蛋汤，一人一碗。现在看来，是难得的绿色无污染食品，怪不得我们家的人个个身体倍儿棒。
午后午休，她拿扇子给我们赶蚊子，怕吵醒我们，动作轻柔。我挨着她睡，她的皮肤松弛，好凉好舒服。外婆身上有种令人极度安心的味儿，可能来自棉布、花露水，或者烧饭的油烟。我问外婆，房顶上咚咚咚的是什么声音啊？她说：“是猫在跑呢，睡吧。”

厨房里用的词：
1. 削：削土豆皮，削苹果皮
2. 剥：剥花生，剥豆子，剥香蕉皮，剥桔子皮，剥大蒜皮，
3. 泡：泡茶，泡黄豆，把大米泡一下
4. 烧：烧饭；烧烤，烧茄子，红烧鱼，红烧肉
5. 汤：鸡汤，骨头汤，鸡蛋汤，米酒蛋汤，蔬菜汤
6. 油烟：做饭的时候油烟比较大；油烟机

边听边说 More than Chinese Listening

Global professionals often face unique challenges, including increased workload, rapid change, and cultural differences. To thrive in this complex environment, upskilling is paramount.

Understanding Workplace Overwhelm
Overwhelm is often linked to factors like unclear expectations, excessive workload, and lack of support. Global professionals may experience additional stress due to time zone differences, cultural nuances, and virtual collaboration challenges. Recognizing the signs of overwhelm - burnout, decreased productivity, and declining job satisfaction - is crucial.

The Role of Upskilling
Upskilling is essential for managing overwhelm and advancing careers. By acquiring new skills, professionals can increase efficiency, take on more complex tasks, and adapt to changing demands. Focus on skills that align with organizational goals and future industry trends.

Prioritizing Upskilling
Identify skill gaps through self-assessment and feedback. Prioritize learning areas that directly address workload challenges. Consider microlearning for quick skill acquisition.

Creating a Supportive Environment
Effective time management, delegation, and setting boundaries are crucial. Open communication with managers about workload is essential. Seek support from colleagues or mentors.

Balancing Work and Life
Global professionals often face unique work-life challenges. Prioritize well-being through physical activity, mindfulness, and sufficient rest. Set clear boundaries between work and personal life.

Leveraging Technology
Utilize productivity tools to streamline tasks. Explore automation options to reduce manual work. Leverage collaboration platforms for efficient teamwork.

By understanding the root causes of overwhelm and prioritizing upskilling, global professionals can enhance their resilience, career progression, and overall job satisfaction.

Bamboo Mindset 

A gift from my heart to your heart! A guided meditation to help you relax, release and connect with your inner self...

For a teacher and a student. Something we can all benefit from and I use it every day :)

It's something unusual for a teacher to do, I know.

But I am not a normal teacher. I am interested in psychology, coaching, meditation, exploring the invisible. 

Today I'd like to share with you something I've come to realise after 14 years of my own personal & professional development - learning from the world's top teachers and something I've gathered from over 18,000 one-on-one coaching sessions with my students that I've successfully helped.

This is something I have done for my private students, but in today's meditation I had an idea to share it with the Italki community. 

Please allow my guided meditation to help you relax, feel comfortable in your skin and trust your inner instrument, the Dao WIthin, to take you where you need to go.

Let your Higher Self be your guide and my voice is the transmission mechanism to your Higher Self.

Feel good now.

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日もN2をやります！
〜なんて、やります。

これは、予想していなかったことを見たり聞いたりした時の気持ちを言う時に使います。



例文やりましょう！

・こんな時代がくるなんて、思っていなかった。

・北海道に¥5,000で行けるなんて、知らなかった。

・"推しの子"がこんなにおもしろいなんて思ってもいなかった。

・まさか本当に海外にいけるなんて。

・まさか、あの人が退職していたなんて。


こんな感じですね。
まさかーなんて、はよく使います。
おどろいた時しか使わないので、毎日使うわけではないですね。

ぼくがこんなPodcastをしているなんて、5年前には想像していませんでした。


いつもの通り、声に出して練習したり、自分で例文作ったりして練習してくださいね！


今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
