✨ YOU ARE THE CREATOR OF YOUR LIFE!

As a coach, meeting people who want to change their life is my daily work.

I call this “moving from Point A to Point B.”

Point A is where you are, with your current frustrations, problems, and challenges.

Point B is where you want to be, the life you love, the future your heart desires.

In a perfect universe, everyone would be sailing effortlessness from Point A to Point B. But this is not the universe we live in.

In our magnificent, messy universe, sometimes we don’t know what our Point B is. Other times, we are stuck in point A, held back by different forces, unable to budge an inch. And very often, we’re not moving as powerfully as we know we could.

I often said to a potential client that: “As your coach, I’m not going to say: ‘Hop on my back, Susan! I’ll carry you from Point A to Point B on hyper-speed!”

That always gets a good laugh. But they know there’s truth in it.

They know that change is hard work and that work must come from them.

But what they may not know, like Bria when she first met me, was that real change starts from within.

Most problems in our life are created by ourselves, not our job, our boss, or our mother-in-law.

𝐖𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞, 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐬.

This can be a depressing statement, but it can also be empowering.

If we can create our problems, we can also make our blessing. We just need to know where to focus our creative power.

=================================
「Suck」の使用はタブー？
=================================
　
英語の「Suck」といえば、本来は「吸う」や「しゃぶる」などを意味し、性的な意味合いもあることから使用を避けられがちかと思いますが、ネイティブの日常会話では、いかがわしい意味以外のスラングとしても非常に頻繁に使われている単語なので、今日はその用法について触れていこうと思います。
　
　
～suckの本来の意味～
　
suckは本来、「吸う」や「しゃぶる」、「なめる」を意味する単語です。例えば、「ストローで吸う」は“Suck on a straw.”、「ペロペロキャンディーをなめる」は“Suck on a lollipop.”、「私の息子は親指をしゃぶります」は“My son sucks his thumb.”と言います。その他、“Vacuum cleaners suck dust from the floor.”のように、掃除機が床のホコリを吸い取る意味でも使えます。
　
　
～日常会話で使われるsuckの意味と用法～
　
--------------------------------------------------
1) ____ sucks
→「ひどい / 最悪 / つまらない」
--------------------------------------------------
　
suckは「ひどい」「最悪」「つまらない」の意味でよく使われる口語的な表現です。例えば、「この料理は最悪だ」は“This food sucks.”、「この映画はつまらない」は“That movie sucks.”、「私の仕事は最悪だ」は“My job sucks.”のように表現します。一般的に“____ sucks”の形式が使われます。
　
＜例文＞
　
That restaurant has a nice vibe, but the food sucks.
（あのレストランは雰囲気はいいけど、料理がひどいよ。）
　
I don't get what the hype is all about. I thought that movie sucked.
（なんであの映画がすごく話題になっているのか分からない。僕はあの映画は最悪だと思ったんだけどね。）
　
My job sucks. It doesn't pay well and I have to work long hours.
（私の仕事は最悪です。給料は安いし、長時間働かないといけない。）
　
　
--------------------------------------------------
2) That sucks
→「それはひどいね / 残念だね / ついてないね」
--------------------------------------------------
　
“That sucks.”は「それはひどいね」や「残念だね」、「ついてないね」を意味し、不幸や災難といった悪い出来事に対する同情を表す表現として使われるインフォーマルなフレーズです。
　
✔友人のペットや誰かが亡くなった場合など深刻なシーンでの使用は非常に失礼にあたるので避けましょう。その場合は、“I'm very sorry.”や“I'm sorry to hear that.”を使うようにしましょう。
　
＜例文＞
　
The tickets sold out? That sucks.
（チケットが売り切れ？ついていないね。）
　
I can't believe your flight got delayed for 8 hours. That sucks.
（飛行機が8時間も遅れるなんて信じられない。ホント、ありえないよね。）
　
That sucks. If I were you, I would have complained to the manager.
（それはひどい。私だったらマネージャーに文句を言ってるよ。）
　
〜会話例1〜
A: I just needed one more point to pass! It's so frustrating.
（あと1点で合格だったのに！悔しいよ。）

B: Ah man, that sucks.
（あー、それは残念だね。）
　
〜会話例2〜
A: I was supposed to study abroad in Vancouver this year, but it got canceled because of the coronavirus.
（今年はバンクーバーに留学する予定だったのにコロナで中止になっちゃったよ。）

B: Are you serious? That sucks. Hopefully, you can go next year.
（マジで？それは最悪。来年は行けるといいね。）
　
〜会話例3〜
A: It was raining the whole time I was there. It was terrible.
（旅行中、ずっと雨だったよ。最悪だった。）

B: Wow, that sucks. I had a similar experience when I went to Thailand last year.
（それはついてないね。私も去年タイに行った時、同じような経験をしたよ。）
　
　
--------------------------------------------------
3) Suck(s) at ____
→「〜が下手 / 〜が苦手」
--------------------------------------------------
　
suckはスポーツや楽器が「下手」、学校の科目が「苦手」と表現する時にも使うことができ、その場合は“suck at ____”の形式が使われます。例えば、「私はビリヤードが下手です」は“I suck at pool.”、「彼は運転が下手です」は“He sucks at driving.”、「彼女は絵を描くのが苦手です」は“She sucks at drawing.”のように表現します。
　
ちなみに、「君は下手くそだな」と言いたい時はシンプルに“You suck!”と言います。“You suck!”は状況によって、「君は役立たずだ」や「あなたは最低だ」の意味になることもあるので、状況に応じて判断しましょう。
　
✔「（彼は）〜が下手」→「(He) sucks at _____」
　
✔「（彼は）へたくそ」→「(He) sucks!」
　
＜例文＞
　
I suck at cooking. I go to the convenience store or order on Uber Eats every day.
（私は料理が下手なので、毎日コンビニに行くかUber Eatsで注文します。）
　
He seriously sucks at driving. Honestly, he shouldn't be on the road. It's hazardous.
（彼は運転が本当に下手。正直、彼は運転しない方がいいと思う。危険だよ。）
　
Is she really a professional singer? She sucks. She can't carry a tune.
（彼女は本当にプロの歌手なの？下手くそだね。音痴だよ。）
　
I suck at cooking. The only thing I can make is cup noodles.
（私は料理が下手です。カップ麺くらいしか作れません。）
　
I suck at math. I never liked math ever since I was a kid.
（私は数学が苦手です。子供の時からずっと数学は嫌いでした。）
　
He really sucks. He needs more practice.
（彼はホントに下手くそだね。もっと練習しないといけないよ。）
　
　
--------------------------------------------------
4) Suck it up
→「我慢しなさい」
--------------------------------------------------
　
“suck it up”は「我慢しなさい」を意味する口語的な言い方です。特にグダグダと愚痴をこぼしたり弱音を吐いている人に対して使われることが多く、文句を言わずに「我慢してやりなさい、終わらせないさい、なんとかしなさい」といった意味になります。“suck it up”は必ずこの組み合わせで使われるので、このまま覚えましょう。
　
＜例文＞
　
Look. I know you're exhausted, but suck it up. We have to finish this by today.
（クタクタに疲れているのは分かってるけど、我慢して。今日中に終わらせないといけないので）
　
My leg cramped up during the marathon, but I sucked it up and finished the race.
（マラソン中に足がつりましたが、我慢して完走しました。）
　
Don't put off your project. Just suck it up and finish tonight.
（プロジェクトを後回しにしない。つべこべ言わないで言わないで今夜中に終わらせない）
　
〜会話例〜
A: It's too hot. I don't want to do this anymore.
（暑すぎる。もうやりたくないよ。）

B: Suck it up. We're almost done. Let's finish up.
（もうすぐ終わるんだから我慢しなよ。終わらせよう。）

This morning, as I started putting on my shoes to go for a run, my grandfather exclaimed "You've got to teach online in 25minutes!" 😱
"Yeah, I'm just going for a whizz round the block." 😎
"What on earth is the point in that??" 🤨 he responded.
-
I would be less fit if I never went for a run unless I had time to warm up, run 5k and stretch. I would be weaker if I only lifted weights when I had 1.5hrs for a full balls-to-the-wall session 🏋🏻‍♂️
-
Sure, some people can routinely make time for high intensity, high volume exercise.
Some people love making that the centrepiece of their day.
Some are both and content with fitness being a focal point of their life 👍🏽 but, contrary to what the instagram fitness world will lead you to believe, that's really fucking rare.
-
Way too may of us seem to think the goal is to "get fit". I can almost guarantee it shouldn't be for most. Not by whatever arbitrary definition of it you're using. You just need to get fit-ter 📈
-
A friend of mine the other day said "I can't go to the gym without a PT because if I go on my own I just get in a 60% workout and it's a waste of my time." 🤦🏻‍♂️
HOW have we been convinced that exercise at 60% is a waste of time? I’ll bet most “waste” more time daily scrolling 📱
-
Side note: If you think a PT's “job” is to run your arse into the ground at 100%, I can almost guarantee you've got a mediocre one 💁🏻‍♂️
-
Equally, it doesn't have to take a lot of your day ⏱ I consulted a couple the other day who have been "meaning to get fit" for a while. They already had a few machines, but seemed to think 15mins on them 3 times a week was pointless. No. What's pointless is having machines you never use.
-
🙏🏽 Please, just start by doing SOMETHING. Something you enjoy, that doesn't feel unpleasantly or unsustainably intense / difficult, and then do it for as long as is convenient. Once it's a habit, start trying to give it a bit more effort, and making a bit more time for it. I know we say to have goals in fitness and business and life but, for some, maybe it's the goal that has been getting in the way? Maybe it's the goal that's so daunting that you don't do ANYTHING to get yourself closer to it? 🧐

【完整翻譯】Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow - Industry Baby

Baby back, couple racksCouple Grammys on him, couple plaquesThat's a fact, throw it backThrow it back
我回來了 帶著滿架子的獎牌
葛萊美拿了好幾座 白金唱片得了一堆
這一切鐵證如山
所以趕快轉過去熱舞來討好我
And this one is for the championsI ain't lost since I beganFunny how you said it was the endThen I went did it again
這是獻給稱霸的冠軍
踏上路以來 我從來就未曾迷失
你不覺得好笑嗎？ 酸民說我玩完了
但我回來了 又大獲全勝

I told you long ago on the roadI got what they waiting for
I don't run from nothing, dogGet your soldiers, tell 'em I ain't layin' low
早在那條老街上 我就說了吧
我有大家引頸期盼的東西
我可不會隨便逃跑
所以告訴你的大軍 我沒有要低調引退的意思
You was never really rooting for me anywayWhen I'm back up at the top, I wanna hear you sayHe don't run from nothin', dogGet your soldiers, tell 'em that the break is over
反正你也從來沒喜歡過我
當我重返榮耀 我要聽到你說
「他不會輕易離場」
所以集結你的大軍 告訴他們休息時間結束了

Need to get this album doneNeed a couple number onеsNeed a plaque on every song
Need mе like one with Nicki now
我得把這張專輯完成
我得再拿下幾座冠軍
我要每一首歌都有白金獎牌
我要和Nicki一起站上高峰
Tell a rap nigga I don't see yaI'm a pop nigga like Bieber
I don't fuck bitches, I'm queer
But these niggas bitches like Madea
告訴嘻哈饒舌仔 我眼裡根本沒有你
我就像小賈斯汀一樣 流行到爆
妹子？我沒興趣 我是酷兒
你們這些酸民就像個老媽子一樣

let's do it
I ain't fall off, I just ain't release my new shit
I blew up, now everybody tryna sue me
You call me Nas, but the hood call me Doobie
開工吧
我沒有跌落神壇 我只是新歌還沒發
我一夕爆紅 現在每個人都想告我
你們叫我Nas 但我家鄉的人叫我Doobie

[Jack Harlow]
My track record so clean, they couldn't wait to just bash meI must be gettin' too flashy, y'all shouldn't have let the world gas me
我沒拿什麼獎 他們等不及就說我沒實力
我肯定是太招搖了 你們不該讓全世界噴爆我
It's too late 'cause I'm here to stay and these girls know that I'm nastyI sent her back to her boyfriend with my handprint on her ass cheek
太遲了 因為老子我已經要在這裡待下
妹子們都愛我
讓我在她的翹臀上留下紅紅的掌印
再回去找她男朋友

City talkin', we takin' notesTell 'em all to keep makin' postsWish he could, but he can't get close
OG so proud of me that he chokin' up while he makin' toasts
I'm the type that you can't control, said I would, then I made it so
謠言四起 我們做著筆記
告訴大家繼續po文吧
他只是羨慕 但他永遠趕不上我
嘻哈大老們為我驕傲 他敬酒的時候還在哽咽
我完全不受控 我就是說到做到

I don't clear up rumors, where's y'all sense of humor?
I'm done makin' jokes 'cause they got old like baby boomers
Turned my haters to consumers, I make vets feel like they juniors
Say your time is comin' soon, but just like Oklahoma
我從來沒在闢謠的 你們難道都沒幽默感嗎
我也不想在開玩笑了 不然怎麼講都是老梗
把我的酸民變粉絲 讓老兵變年輕
你說你的時代已經要來了
Mine is comin' sooner, I'm just a late bloomerI didn't peak in high school, I'm still out here gettin' cuter
All these social networks and computersGot these pussies walkin' 'round like they ain't losers
但我的時代來的更快 我是大器晚成
我在高中不受歡迎 但現在我越來越討喜
這些鍵盤戰士 總是故意說著妹子怎樣 顯得自己比較不魯
