Tell a different story to yourself. 換個方式對自己說話吧。 我目前讀的課程有包括是商業管理、金融等等，跟我以前所學大相逕庭，對我而言挑戰性很高，今天在唸書時，念到金融術語的部分，我開始雙眼渙散，此時我聽到腦中一個小小的聲音對自己說：我就是最不擅長這類的東西，我立刻發現了這樣的想法，然後我就搖搖頭、拍了手（立刻把自己帶出當下情境）很大力的那種，重新對自己說：「我很ㄎㄧㄠˋ，一定有辦法把這東西搞懂。」 很多人應該都有經歷過，別人對你說：「你不行啦！你又不在行！」或者更多時候是自己對自己設限說著：「我做不到。」 這些都是過去式，而且是nonsense。 現在，可以做一個小實驗，只要有任何否定自己的想法在腦中出現，換個方式對自己說話，例如：「哇塞我太漂亮了吧！我超有自信的好嗎！我很有價值！我做得到！我超ㄎㄧㄠˋ超聰明的一定能搞懂。」等等。 心態的轉換可以改變你的外在行為，上次在某個地方讀到一段話：「我們花太多時間去改變外在世界，還急於看到成效。但事實上是，要改變外在世界，要先從改變內在開始。」 好，最後，跟我一起說：「我超讚的好嗎！我啥都做得到！」 ————————————————————————— Going back to school and studying a brand new major means that I have a lot to take in when I’m studying, and It’s very challenging. When it came to a time that I looked at the content and go blank, and thinking to myself ‘what the heck is that’, I heard a little voice inside of my head saying man this is too hard for me. And I was aware of this immediately. Of this limiting belief. So I changed my thought from ‘I can’t do this’ to ‘girl I’m freaking intelligent and smart and diligent so I can figure it out’. It’s the change of the mindset. Have you ever been told that, you’re not good at this, you shouldn’t be doing that? Or sometimes it’s just you telling yourself all these nonsense. Now, whenever this happens in your head, or from other people’s mouth, do yourself a favor and tell a different story to yourself. Such as’I got this, EZPZ, I’m capable of anything, damn I have super power, I’m a powerful manifestor, I’m intelligent human being, I’m enough, I deserve to be loved.’something like that. A change of mindset and change the external world. Whenever you want to change the external, start from the internal. #Blog #Blogger #LosAngeles #LA #SantaMonica

你有冇諗過點解你會用past tense呢？因為你想講一啲過去發生左嘅事情？但係你用if-conditional同求人幫你做嘢嘅時候，你都可能會用到past tense㗎喎。🤔原來係因為過去式喺文法層面上可以形成距離感(remoteness)㗎。 - 舉個例子，當我地講Type II conditional嗰時，例如“if I were you, I would work harder”，兩句clauses都係用past tense, 係因為「我」永遠都唔會係「你」，呢件事喺現實上係100%唔會發生，同現實有極大嘅距離。題外話，future tense同past tense都係non-factual, 但future tense係non-remote, 所以type 1講high possibility就會用future tense。🤘🏼 - 另一個你會用到過去式嘅時間就係求人嘅時候，例如你同老師講“we wondered if the deadline could be extended”, 即使你明知係講緊將來嘅事，你都會用過去式。今次係因為你想禮貌上營造同老師之間嘅距離”social distance”, 其他好類似嘅例子有”could you” 而唔用 “can you” 同埋 “I would like to” 而唔用 “I want”.，全部都係因為”social distance”。🤭 // Have you ever thought about why you use past tense? Probably because you want to talk about something in the past. Yet, why do you also use past tense in Type-2 conditional or when you request someone for something? It’s actually because past tense is used to create sense of remoteness. - For example, in Type II conditional, we can say “if I were you, I would work harder”. We use past tense in both clauses because we know that “I” can never be “you”, which means that such condition is remote from reality. - Another case is making a request. When we say “we wondered if the deadline could be extended” to our teacher, even though we know that we want to extend the deadline which is in the future, we still use past tense. This is to distance ourselves from the teacher as it is common to have certain social distance if you want someone to do you a favour. Similar examples can be saying “could you” instead of “can you” and “I would like to” instead of “I want”. // // // 大大: 呢排掛住温基準試，希望之後出返多啲post，等我🙇🏻‍♂️ #Vocabno #English #DSE #18DSE #2018DSE #19DSE #2019DSE #20DSE #2020DSE #Reading #Writing #Speaking #Wordoftheday #Vocabulary #Expression #Phrase #HKDSE #LiberalStudies #通識 #LS #Dsetips #Linguistics #語言學 #Morphology #JUPAS
