What is the main secret behind top achievers?

Why some people continue to thrive (get promotions at work, get raises) or when it comes to IELTS speaking - seem to succeed without any hustle?

Have you questioned these people?

Can you imagine coming to these people and asking for a secret recipe?

Well, there is a book that had it figured out and it's the missing ingredient behind millions of working people.

Check out the book, it's all there, it's called 'The Magic Of Thinking Big' by David Schwartz.

Above all - what you'll read from the book is practical. It's not theoretical knowledge, nononon!!! It allowed me to see why I have become one of the best teachers of English on Italki, and another platform - from 11 thousand teachers.

When it comes to memorizing vocabulary, there are several effective techniques you can employ. I am exploring some of them

Background Method:
This technique draws inspiration from the “memory palace” concept. Imagine placing new words or images representing those words in specific rooms within your mental palace. By associating words with spatial locations, you ground them in context. 
Process Words Deeply:
Instead of merely rote memorization, engage with the words deeply. Understand their meanings, etymology, and usage. Create mental connections by linking them to related concepts or personal experiences. 
Associate Words with Mental Images:
Visualize the word’s meaning. Create vivid mental images related to the word. Associating words with images enhances memory retention.
Review Words at Spaced Intervals:
Spaced repetition is a powerful technique. Instead of cramming, review words at regular intervals. Use flashcards or language-learning apps that incorporate spaced repetition algorithms. 
Use Mnemonics:
Create mnemonic devices to remember challenging words. Mnemonics can be acronyms, rhymes, or visual associations. 
Practice with Vocabulary Apps and Games:
Interactive apps and games make learning fun. Explore platforms like Duolingo, Memrise, or Quizlet. Gamified exercises reinforce vocabulary and keep you motivated.
Have a Dedicated Vocabulary Notebook:
Maintain a vocabulary journal. Write down new words, their meanings, and example sentences. Regularly review and revise your notebook. The act of writing reinforces memory.
Immerse Yourself in the Language:
Surround yourself with the target language. Read books, watch movies, listen to podcasts, and follow native speakers on social media. Remember, consistency and creativity are key. Experiment with different techniques to find what works best for you.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。今天想带大家一起学学一些跟“手”有关的词。
大家都知道手是我们身体的一部分，有很多词都有“手”这个字，例如我们每天都在用的手机。你现在很可能就是把手机拿在手里，听着这集播客吧。我们有左手和右手，如果你习惯用右手，那你就是右撇子，相反，习惯用左手的人就是左撇子。我们有五根手指，分别是大拇指，食指，中指，无名指和小拇指。
还有很多带有“手”的词，其实不是真的手，而是指“人”，在某个方面很熟练或者专业的人。例如，歌手就是唱歌唱得很好，把唱歌当做工作的人。我们可以说“他是一名歌手。”选手，选择的“选”，就是被选择去参加比赛的人。我们可以说“有几百名选手参加了这次的比赛。”对手，对面的“对”，和你竞争的人就是你的对手。我们可以说“这次比赛他轻松打败了对手。”助手，帮助的助，就是帮助你做一些工作的人。我们可以说“有了助手以后，李经理没有以前那么忙了。”高手，高低的高，就是在某个方面很厉害的人。我们可以说“他是一名象棋高手，经常赢比赛。”
你还知道哪些和“手”有关的词？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
