Use These Expressions Next Time You're Surprised

建议同学们先听，如果有听不懂的地方再看文本。

1）那个游戏告诉我们：
      A.要平等待人
      B.交际是一种艺术
      C.朋友应该相互帮助
      D.不同的朋友决定不同的你

2）“近朱者赤，近墨者黑”的意思主要是：
      A.做事情要专心
      B.朋友会让你变得更好
      C.人们易受周围人的影响
      D.要虚心学习别人的长处

3）根据上文，可以知道什么？
      A.要信任朋友
      B.交友须谨慎
      C.不要自寻烦恼
      D.要有怀疑精神

听力内容：
       几年前，我参加了一个主题为“创造财富”的论坛。在讨论会上，一位发言人在演说过程中请听众做个游戏。他说：“请大家拿出一页纸，然后在纸上写下和你相处时间最多的6个朋友，也可以说是与你关系最亲密的6个朋友，记下他们每个人的月收入。然后，算出他们月收入的平均数。这个平均值便能反映出你个人月收入的多少。”
　　后来，我认识到了这个游戏的本质意义，那就是交际的力量，即结交朋友的重要性。中国有句老话：“近朱者赤，近墨者黑。” 它所讲的道理是一样的，即择友的重要性。朋友的影响力非常大，可以潜移默化地影响一个人的一生。
　　在这里，我并不想告诉大家如何去选择朋友。我想强调的是，如果你想在人生和事业上取得成功，必须小心谨慎地结交朋友。
　　如果你最亲密的朋友是公司的高级主管，那么你们在一起时所谈论的主要内容一定是关于如何管理和经营的；如果你最亲密的朋友是公司的职员，那么你们在一起时谈论的主要话题一定是关于如何工作的；如果你最亲密的朋友是房地产商，那么你们谈论的话题一定会是关于房地产的……
　　如果下一次你和朋友一起聊天儿，请记下你们谈论的主要话题，到时你就会明白这句话的重要意义。如果你想展翅高飞，那么请你多和雄鹰为伍，并成为其中的一员。

A Must Skill To Have As An IELTS Speaking Performer! And For Corporate Employees. (read on, the gift is down the page)! 

This is my recording of preparing a student to succeed as an IELTS speaking taker.

Here are some transcribed ideas from the podcast:

1. Mindset is the key.

What you think about your success will dictate what you say, how you say it, it will influence your fluency, your grammar, your vocabulary!

It all starts off WITH YOU THINKING : "I AM A BRIGHT INDIVIDUAL'!

I am a bright individual,

I feel that I am a bright individual,

I possess the qualities of a bright individual.

I am the owner of being the bright individual.

2. How I prepared for the IELTS test and what I did to achieve 8.5 and then 9.0 in the speaking section?

3. You have the technical skill and the mindset skill.

4. Who are you competing with?

5. What were my other successes with this strategy in 2018 and in 2022?

6. The acceptance of ideas talked about and moving on to further preparation.

My student, I decided to share it with you because you cannot miss to go into IELTS or ANY ENDEVOIR  (job interview preparation, business English) without this CRUCIAL ELEMENT called the mindset!

Listen to it few times, let it germinate in you and if you want to take it further - grab the book called: The Magic Of Thinking Big By David Schwartz - you'll get business advices on how to succeed in the corporate world.

My students are presidents of companies, VPs of departments, business owners and they ALL share the same thing - what I talk about in the podcast.

Join some of my coaching classes to elevate your game as communicator!
