📰 Why self-promotion doesn't have to be taboo?

🀄 為什麼自我推銷不必忌諱?

Many of us instinctively hate the idea of blowing our own trumpets. Yet it's important to understand how best to highlight our skills – especially now.

📌 第一段說明，我們許多人instinctively(本能地)討厭blowing our trumpets (自我吹捧)。然而，在這時代，要了解如何顯示我們的才能是很重要的。

The mere idea of self-promotion makes many people wince. Trumpet-blowing is something a lot of us aren’t good at and that’s no surprise, given we’re taught as children that ‘boasting’ isn’t an attractive quality. “We get hung up on self-promotion coming across as arrogant,” explains Stefanie Sword-Williams, author of F*ck Being Humble: Why Self Promotion Isn’t a Dirty Word. “But if you’re not an arrogant person, you won’t deliver it in that way.”

📌 本段說明，自我推銷的想法使許多人wince (畏縮)。Trumpet-blowing (自我吹捧) 是我們很多人都不擅長的事，其實不奇怪。因為我們從小就被教導說 boasting (吹牛) 並不是一種吸引人的特質。 《X你的謙虛》作者威廉史瓦特就說：「為什麼 self-promotion (自我推銷) 不是一個不好的詞? 但是，如果您不是一個 arrogant (自大的)人，您不會讓人有那樣的感覺。」

In fact, taking pride in your professional accomplishments should be considered a normal part of life, not a taboo, experts say. Highlighting your skills well can feed into workplace success, and whether you’re changing jobs, want to move up at work or show your boss what you’ve been achieving, being able to self-promote effectively is an advantage.

📌 本段說明，專家表示，實際上，以自己的專業 accomplishments (成就) 為榮，應該被視為生活的正常部分，而不是taboo (禁忌)。出色地展示自己的技能可以促進工作場所的成功，無論您是要換工作，想升職還是向老闆展示您所取得的成就，能夠effectively (有效)自我推銷都是一個優勢。

Right now, the need to ‘self-sell’ has arguably never been greater, as pandemic-hit businesses weigh up what they do – and don’t – need going forward. It’s particularly true for some groups; women, who traditionally struggle to promote themselves, have been particularly affected by the Covid-19 recession, for example. Home workers could also benefit; research shows that they suffer from a lack of face-to-face time with managers, which negatively impacts career progression.

📌 這段說到：目前，可以說“自售” 的需求從未如此強大，因為受到疫情打擊的企業weigh up (權衡)了他們要做的事情和不需要做的事情。對於某些群體來說尤其如此；例如，傳統上為提升自我而 struggle (奮鬥)的女性尤其受到 Covid-19 衰退的影響。家庭工人也可以受益；研究表明，他們缺乏與經理面對面的時間，這會對職業發展產生負面影響。

“If we don’t invest the time in demonstrating our value, we run the risk of not being considered as ‘needed’,” explains Sword-Williams. “The content you put out about yourself is what you will be known for – so it’s essential that you control that narrative.”

📌 Sword-Williams 解釋說：“如果我們不花時間 demonstrate(證明) 自己的價值，那麼我們就有被認為不是'需要'的 risk (風險)。” “發布給自己的內容就是您將廣為人知的內容—因此，控制該 narrative (敘述)至關重要。”

Post-pandemic, how we promote ourselves could help determine whether we thrive in the workplace or linger, overlooked, on the side lines. That means overcoming squeamishness and learning how to explain our skillset properly. Fortunately, it’s something we can all master.

📌 疫情發生之後，我們如何推銷自己可以幫助確定我們在工作場所 thrive (茁壯成長)，或是在職場上 linger (徘徊)被忽視。這意味著要克服 squeamishness (神經質)，學習如何正確地解釋我們的技能。幸運的是，這是我們所有人都能掌握的東西。

In its simplest form, self-promotion is the act of drawing attention to your work and achievements. Whether it’s a post shared on your LinkedIn, an email check-in with your boss or a conversation with an important contact, self-promotion shines a spotlight on your successes with a view to developing a personal brand, furthering a career or asserting yourself in your field. It’s a skill that’s as important for someone trying to get on the employment ladder as it is for a CEO.

📌 在最簡單的形式中，自我推銷是一種引起對您的工作和成就的關注的行為。無論是在LinkedIn上分享貼文，與老闆的電子郵件，還是與重要聯繫人對話，自我推銷都將 spotlight (聚焦) 於您的成功，以發展個人品牌，促進事業或在自己領域建立聲譽。對於想get on the employment (升職)的人來說，這項技能與對於首席執行官的一樣重要。

記得！根據Cambridge dictionary
Let me see
是讓我「想一下」
的意思！
不是讓我看一下哦！

#跟著安加碼學
可能有些人有發覺
Let me look at it “real quick”
好像文法有誤⚠️
是的！正確文法應該要是 “really quickly”
但母語人士為了方便
都會習慣說
let me do something real quick！

📰 The dying teenager who wanted world peace and love

🀄 垂死少年但願世界和平愛相隨

📘《Ken的文法筆記 I.》即將出售(詳置頂貼文)

When Californian teenager Jeff Henigson was diagnosed with brain cancer and given two years to live, a children's charity granted him the wish of a lifetime. But Jeff didn't choose to go to Disneyland or meet his favourite footballer - Jeff just wanted world peace.

📌 人生無常，這篇文章主人翁就是一個例子。Jeff給診斷患有(diagnosed with) 腦癌(brain cancer)，他的一生中唯一願望(the wish of a lifetime)是世界和平(world peace)。

In the summer of 1986, 15-year-old Jeff Henigson was riding his bike to the local electronics shop to buy the last part for a "super laser" he'd been building, when he was hit by a van.

"It's coming in the opposite direction and she doesn't see me and just smashes right into me," Jeff says. "And I'm launched, like a rocket, 10 feet backwards. I land on the back of my head."

Jeff wasn't wearing a helmet, and was knocked unconscious. A few hours later, he woke up in hospital. He seemed to be OK, though, so he was discharged the same day.

📌 在1986年夏天，他騎自行車時發生意外，被廂形貨車 (van) 撞到，由於他沒有戴安全帽(helmet)，因此被撞到不省人事(knocked unconscious)。他幾個小時醒來，看似可以了，所以在同一天出院(discharged)。

But within a few weeks Jeff began having seizures and he returned to the hospital, this time to have a CT scan of his brain.

If it had shown injuries from the cycling accident, Jeff would not have been surprised. But the news was worse than that - the scan revealed a tumor.

"Two things went through my mind," Jeff says. "One was a plan to lose my virginity that summer. And let's just say that did not work out. The second was to complete my laser project."

📌 他在幾個星期内感到不舒服，回到醫院進行電腦斷層掃描(CT scan)，竟發現掃描顯示他有腫瘤(美: tumor 英: tumour)

Jeff was an ambitious teenager, whose dream was to work for Nasa. He believed that the best way to impress them was to build "the most amazing laser" which could bounce a beam off of a reflector that had been left on the moon by Apollo 11.

But the laser was also a way for him to bond with his father, a distant figure, who had served with the US Navy in World War Two.

📌 這段講述Jeff的夢想：為太空總署(NASA)工作。他希望建造一個激光器，令NASA對他留下好的印象。這個項目也是個與他爸爸建立緊密關係(bond with his father)的方法。

"I didn't know at the time if that was because of the war or something else. But my father was separate, emotionally, from the rest of us. And I thought, 'Here's this thing we have in common. This fascination with science. This fascination with space.' And that's why I pursued it."

Though Jeff's father never mentioned his experiences in the Pacific when the nuclear bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he would talk, at length, about nuclear weapons, the nuclear threat and the US's relationship with the USSR. And this seems to have had an impact on Jeff.

📌 Jeff解釋他跟爸爸的共同點是迷戀科學(fascination with science)、迷戀太空(fascination with space)。他爸爸詳盡地談及核武器(nuclear weapons)、核威脅(nuclear threat)以及美國跟蘇聯的關係(the US’s relationship with the USSR)，這對Jeff有影響。

"There was a fictional film in the early 1980s called The Day After. It was about the Soviet Union dropping nuclear bombs on the US. I was probably 11 years old, and I was scared out of my mind. I would often fall asleep at night and go straight into a nightmare about nuclear war," Jeff remembers.

Jeff hoped not only that he would get that dream job with Nasa, but that the organisation would start to work with the USSR rather than competing with it.

"Even when I was fairly young, I could see the potential for collaboration between the US and Soviet Union," he says. "It just never made sense to me that we were pointing nuclear weapons at each other, when we could be collaborating to do extraordinary things in space."

📌 Jeff 不但希望在NASA工作，而且希望NASA會開始跟蘇聯合作，在太空合作做非凡事情 (collaborating to do extraordinary things in space)。
