TED 테드로 영어공부 하기 Try something new for 30 days by Matt Cutts

by ★√★ 2020. 2. 17.

안녕하세요, Davey 입니다. 2번째로, 추천해드릴 TED Talk은, "Try something new for 30 days." 라는, TED Speech 입니다. 저는, TED Speech를 볼때, Speaker의 배경을 잘 보지 않아서, 확실하지는 않은데, 중간 중간 화면에 나오는 사진을 봤을 때는, 구글에서 일하는, Programmer 인듯 합니다.

간단히 설명해 드리면, 평소에, 어떤 것을 하고 싶은데, 하지 못하고 있거나, 담배와 같은, 해로운 것을 끊고 싶은데, 잘 안되는 사람들에게 전하는 메시지 인거 같습니다. 그냥 닥치고, 30일만, 하고 싶은 것을 해보거나, 해로운 것을 하지 않아 보는 시도를 하라는 것입니다. 

 

그러면, 정말 원하는 것을 얻을 수도 있고, 고쳐야할 습관도 고칠 수 있다는 애기 입니다. 

(하지만, 30일동안 원하는 하기 위해서, 지속가능한, Motivation과 끈기는 필요하겠죠.)

 

저는 아래 사진과 같이, 이전에 말씀 드린 것처럼, Script를 뽑고, 모르는 부분은 단어를 찾아가면서, 하고 있습니다. Reading 연습도 되니, 일석 이조 죠! 

 

이제 오늘 Reading도 마무리 했으니까, 20~30번정도 Shadowing 할 예정입니다. 아래 script는 TED 홈페이지 해당 speech의 Transcript 내용 참조하였습니다.

A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut, so I decided to follow in the footsteps of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock, and try something new for 30 days. The idea is actually pretty simple. Think about something you've always wanted to add to your life and try it for the next 30 days. It turns out 30 days is just about the right amount of time to add a new habit or subtract a habit -- like watching the news -- from your life. 

 

 

There's a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges. The first was, instead of the months flying by, forgotten, the time was much more memorable. This was part of a challenge I did to take a picture every day for a month. And I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing that day. I also noticed that as I started to do more and harder 30-day challenges, my self-confidence grew. I went from desk-dwelling computer nerd to the kind of guy who bikes to work. For fun! 

(Laughter)

Even last year, I ended up hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. I would never have been that adventurous before I started my 30-day challenges. 

 

 

I also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days. Have you ever wanted to write a novel? Every November, tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000-word novel, from scratch, in 30 days. It turns out, all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day for a month. So I did. By the way, the secret is not to go to sleep until you've written your words for the day. You might be sleep-deprived, but you'll finish your novel. Now is my book the next great American novel? No. I wrote it in a month. It's awful. 

 

 

(Laughter) 

 

 

But for the rest of my life, if I meet John Hodgman at a TED party, I don't have to say, "I'm a computer scientist." No, no, if I want to, I can say, "I'm a novelist." 

 

 

(Laughter) 

 

 

So here's one last thing I'd like to mention. I learned that when I made small, sustainable changes, things I could keep doing, they were more likely to stick. There's nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges. In fact, they're a ton of fun. But they're less likely to stick. When I gave up sugar for 30 days, day 31 looked like this. 

 

 

(Laughter) 

 

 

So here's my question to you: What are you waiting for? I guarantee you the next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot! For the next 30 days. 

 

Thanks. (Applause)

 

 

이번 Speech는 상대적으로, 모르는 단어가 별로 없어서, 적게 기재 하였습니다.

 

한 걸음 한 걸음 성장한다고 생각하고, 기쁘게 마무리 하도록 하겠습니다.

 

그럼 수고하시고, 오늘도 같이 성장하시죠!
