Weekends, I usually have more classes.

I'm a yoga teacher, so my weekends are not a normal weekend for other people where they go out for lunches, dinners and celebrate.

For me, weekends are more heavy on work.

對我來說，週末的工作更繁重。

Do you like to spend your weekends in your local area or do you like to travel?

您喜歡在當地度過週末，還是喜歡旅行？

So it depends.

所以要看情況。

It's both.

兩者都有。

If I have a lot of time to myself, in the sense if I have two days off or three days off, I like to go out on a vacation, like a mini trip.

如果我有很多屬於自己的時間，比如有兩天或三天假期，我就喜歡出去度假，就像一次小型旅行。

So I like to go out, probably do like a picnic, go out to a park or maybe explore any other countryside, any other city.

所以我喜歡外出，可能會去野餐、去公園，或者去其他鄉村、其他城市探險。

But if it's a short duration, if it's only a day, then probably spend it in the house, like I mentioned earlier.

但如果時間很短，只有一天，那就可能在家裡度過，就像我前面提到的那樣。

Are there any interesting things to do in your local area on the weekend?

當地週末有什麼有趣的活動嗎？

Yes.

是的。

So like I mentioned earlier, if it's a short weekend, if it's only a day and a half, then staying in is better for me.

所以，就像我之前提到的，如果是短週末，如果只有一天半，那麼我還是待在家裡比較好。

And because there are a lot of things that I need to finish.

還因為我有很多事情需要完成。

So I prefer staying in.

所以我更喜歡待在家裡。

But if it is a longer weekend, like in the sense that you also have a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, it's a three days, then I like to probably step out and probably explore other neighborhood cities and towns and villages here.

但如果是一個較長的週末，比如你也有周五、週六、週日，也就是三天，那麼我就喜歡走出去，去探索這裡的其他鄰近城市、城鎮和村莊。

Now let's talk about reading.

現在我們來談談閱讀。

What was your favorite book when you were a child?

您小時候最喜歡哪本書？

I can't go back that far like when I was a child, but I do remember somewhere in school, probably towards the end of school, I loved this book called Many Masters, Many Lives.

我不能像小時候那樣追溯那麼久，但我確實記得在學校的某個地方，大概是快放學的時候，我很喜歡這本名叫《許多大師，許多生命》的書。

And I think I like to call myself an old soul, because when I was a child, I still was very inclined towards spirituality.

我想我喜歡稱自己為 "老靈魂"，因為當我還是個孩子時，我仍然非常傾向於精神信仰。

And I really liked to know where we come from, where we go after life, before death, you know, those kind of things.

我真的很想知道我們從哪裡來，生後去哪裡，死前去哪裡，你知道的，諸如此類的事情。

So after death, after life.

所以，死後、生後都是如此。

So yes, so that's, I think, a book which rings a bell, which I always get reminded of.

所以，是的，我想，這本書讓我記憶猶新，我總是會想起它。

How often do you read?

您多久讀一次書？

So as of now, my reading is very education based.

I have a lot of books on yoga, a lot of books on spirituality.

I'm very less on fiction, but I try and listen a little bit of fiction as well.

我很少看小說，但也會試著聽一點小說。

So I listen to the audio books.

所以我聽有聲讀物。

It's called Audible.

它叫 Audible。

So I have that app with me.

所以我隨身帶著那個應用程序。

So I think when I'm on the tube, when I'm traveling, it's always the Audible, the book which I listen to.

所以我覺得，當我在地鐵上，當我在旅行中，我總是聽有聲書，聽那本書。

And when I'm at home and when I'm trying to educate myself and I'm trying to know more about yoga, then it's probably, I think, overall an hour a day or maybe sometimes an hour in two days.

而當我在家時，當我想學習更多的瑜伽知識時，我想，大概是每天一個小時，或者有時兩天一個小時。

Do you like to read when on holiday?

您喜歡在度假時閱讀嗎？

Depends.

視情況而定。

Like I said, most of my reading is education based.

正如我所說，我的大部分閱讀都是以教育為基礎的。

So I need to dedicate time to it, to just the reading part of it.

是以，我需要投入時間，只讀其中的一部分。

But when I'm on vacation, then I don't like to educate myself.

但當我度假時，我就不喜歡自我教育了。

So it depends.

所以要看情況。

But sometimes I do like to read.

但有時我確實喜歡閱讀。

I think when I'm on a vacation, I'd rather go for just listening to a book.

我覺得在度假時，我更願意去聽一本書。

And do you prefer to read physical books or e-books?

Now let's talk about history.

現在讓我們來談談歷史。

Do you enjoy watching TV shows about history?

Yes.

是的。

But I'd like to put it this way.

但我想這麼說。

I enjoy history, but I like more of the crime based histories.

我喜歡歷史，但我更喜歡以犯罪為題材的歷史。

There are a lot of events which have happened in certain countries, certain part of towns.

在某些國家、某些城市發生了許多事件。

So I like to know more about that.

所以我想了解更多這方面的情況。

I'm very heavy on crime based series.

我非常喜歡犯罪題材的電視劇。

So, yes.

所以，是的。

And sometimes I also like to watch just the history bit as well.

有時我也喜歡只看歷史部分。

Like I think I've seen that entire show on Netflix called The Roman Empire or something like that.

我想我在 Netflix 上看過一整部叫《羅馬帝國》之類的節目。

But that's also because it's very heavy on drama.

但這也是因為它的戲劇性很強。

It's very heavy on the crime based as well.

它的犯罪題材也很重。

So I think I do have an inclination towards that.

所以我覺得我確實有這方面的傾向。

Did you enjoy studying history in school?

你喜歡在學校學習歷史嗎？

As far as I remember, I don't really have a clear memory of reading or learning history in school, which of course we did.

在我的記憶中，我對在學校閱讀或學習歷史的記憶並不清晰，當然，我們確實是這樣做的。

It was it was there in our textbooks.

我們的教科書上就有。

But I think I grew more fond and more interested in history way later when I started reading about civilizations, when I started reading about different areas and regions and how the world was divided and then invaded by different kingships, if I can call that.

但我認為，當我開始閱讀有關文明的書籍時，當我開始閱讀有關不同地區和區域的書籍時，當我開始閱讀有關世界是如何被不同的王權瓜分和入侵時，我對歷史的喜愛和興趣就越來越濃厚了。

So, yes, it was only later that I started getting interested in history.

所以，是的，我是後來才開始對歷史感興趣的。

So it says describe a time when you were late for something.

是以，它說的是描述一次你遲到的情況。

So I'm usually a very punctual person, and I can't think of any time when I was really late.

是以，我通常是個非常守時的人，我想不出自己有哪次真的遲到了。

But there have been a few instances.

但也有過幾次。

And one such instance was when I got really, really late was for my work.

有一次，我上班遲到了很久。

So I'm new to London and I started teaching yoga over here.

我剛到倫敦，就開始在這裡教瑜伽。

It's been about six to eight months.

大概有六到八個月了。

And I'm still understanding the tube work.

我還在瞭解管道的工作原理。

Like how does the commute work over here?

比如這裡的通勤方式是怎樣的？

How does the bus work over here?

這裡的公車是怎麼運行的？

And also the timings and everything.

還有時間安排和其他一切。

So I'm still adjusting myself to the city.

所以我還在適應這座城市。

So there was this one class I was supposed to reach after two classes, which I was always already taking in Angel.

是以，有這樣一門課，我應該在兩門課後達到，而我一直都在上安吉爾的課。

So there was this one area called Angel.

於是就有了這個叫 "天使 "的地方。

I was taking two classes over there.

我在那裡上了兩門課。

Right after that, there was another class in another area and I was supposed to reach there.

緊接著，在另一個地區又有一堂課，我本該到達那裡。

This another class wasn't mine.

這另一堂課不是我的。

So I was covering for someone.

所以我在替人打掩護。

And I got like a last moment notification that can you take this class?

我在最後一刻接到通知，說你能上這門課嗎？

And I accepted it, really vouching for it and really saying that I will be there.

我接受了它，真的為它擔保，真的說我會去那裡。

It was very disheartening for me because by the time I wrapped up the studio and I left from there, I couldn't make it on time.

這讓我非常沮喪，因為當我結束工作室的工作，從那裡離開時，我已經無法按時到達了。

And this is a big professional setback on my end because I shouldn't be doing that.

這是我職業生涯中的一大挫折，因為我不應該這麼做。

And what happened was that I went for I thought I'll take a bus.

然後我就去坐公車了。

So I took a bus.

於是，我坐上了公車。

And by the time I was about to reach a certain location, I realized I've taken the wrong bus.

當我快要到達某個地點時，我才意識到我坐錯車了。

So I got down and then I tried to take a train.

於是我下了車，然後想乘火車。

So by the time I tried to reach the next best train location, I realized that the train station was shut.

是以，當我試圖到達下一個最佳的火車站時，才發現火車站已經關閉了。

That is when I started panicking.

就在那時，我開始恐慌。

I started looking for a cab and I started contacting my DM, which is like a manager who's always on call and checking if you're on time or not.

我開始找計程車，開始聯繫我的 DM，它就像一個經理，隨時待命，檢查你是否準時到崗。

And the DM told me this is really sad because it looks like I'll not be able to reach on time.

DM 告訴我，這真的很讓人難過，因為看來我無法按時到達了。

And even five minutes late is late for students.

對學生來說，即使遲到五分鐘也是遲到。

So they started asking questions like why is it that the train station is stopped?

於是他們開始問一些問題，比如為什麼火車站停運了？

Like in the sense it's shut, because probably I think they weren't believing me in that moment.

就像關上門一樣，因為可能我覺得他們在那一刻並不相信我。

But later when I described everything, I clicked pictures and finally they believed me.

但後來我描述了一切，拍了照片，他們終於相信了我。

And when I reached.

當我到達

That's the two minutes are up.

兩分鐘到了

Well done.

幹得好

OK.

好的。

You've been telling me about a time when you were late.

你跟我說過有一次你遲到了。

And we're now going to discuss arriving late and being punctual.

我們現在要討論的是遲到和守時的問題。

Right.

對

Thanks very much.

非常感謝。

And let's get back to the video.

讓我們回到視頻上來。

In a way, yes, because I think I'll say if you're constantly late, if you're always late, it's a yes.

在某種程度上，是的，因為我想我會說，如果你經常遲到，如果你總是遲到，那就是 "是"。

It is rude because you're playing with someone's time.

這是不禮貌的，因為你在玩弄別人的時間。

Someone has specially dedicated their time to you and vice versa.

有人專門為你付出時間，反之亦然。

Even you've dedicated your time to them.

就連你也把時間奉獻給了他們。

So in a way, yes, because that person could have done a lot of things in that much time.

所以，從某種程度上說，是的，因為那個人可以在那麼多時間裡做很多事情。

But also sometimes no, because you never know what is that person going through.

但有時也不行，因為你永遠不知道那個人正在經歷什麼。

I mean, in the sense it's it's a friend, right?

我的意思是，在這個意義上，它是一個朋友，對不對？

It's not a profession.

這不是一種職業。

Sometimes I've had my friends complaining that up on nights.

有時，我的朋友也會在晚上抱怨。

All right.

好的

I mean, you can't chill because we're just meeting for a coffee.

我是說，你不能因為我們只是喝杯咖啡就放鬆下來。

So it's OK if they get a little bit late.

所以晚一點也沒關係。

If it's only like 10, 15 minutes, it's fine.

如果只有 10 到 15 分鐘，那就沒問題。

What should happen to people if they are consistently late for work?

如果人們上班總是遲到，該怎麼辦？

Well, I think it's a big no because you're answerable for a lot of people.

我認為這是個大問題，因為你要對很多人負責。

And you have to deliver a job, a product or something in that profession.

在這個職業中，你必須完成一項工作，提供一件產品或其他東西。

And if you get late, it's not only you who's suffering, but it's also the entire company who's suffering because of you.

如果你遲到了，受影響的不僅是你自己，整個公司都會因你而受影響。

So I think they need to learn how to manage their time well.

是以，我認為他們需要學會如何管理好自己的時間。

And there should be some kind of a repercussion for that so that they are being more careful and mindful in the future.

他們應該是以受到某種懲罰，以便今後更加小心謹慎。

What can people do to become more punctual?

怎樣才能讓人們更守時？

OK, so I have this trick, which is a lot of times I've noticed that people who are constantly late, they take the deadline as the deadline.

好吧，我有一個小竅門，那就是很多時候我注意到那些經常遲到的人，他們會把截止日期當成最後期限。

For example, if they have to be somewhere at 10, they'll think, OK, I have to be there at 10.

例如，如果他們必須在 10 點到某個地方，他們就會想，好吧，我必須在 10 點到那裡。

I'd like to put it the other way.

我想換一種說法。

I'll say, keep your time 15 minutes earlier.

我會說，把時間提前 15 分鐘。

Say that you have to reach there by 9.45 or probably 9.30 if you have a habit of constantly being late.

說你必須在 9 點 45 分或 9 點 30 分之前到達那裡，如果你有經常遲到的習慣的話。

That way you'll start getting ready earlier.

這樣你就會更早地開始準備。

You leave the place earlier, your home earlier, and probably you'll be on time.

你可以更早地離開這裡，更早地回家，而且很可能會準時到家。

You can set a time alarm.

您可以設置時間鬧鐘。

You can set a timer.

您可以設置計時器。

You can really make use of these things in order to be on time, I think.

我想，你真的可以利用這些東西來準時上班。

Now let's talk about work productivity.

現在我們來談談工作效率。

Is it better to work for long, interrupted periods of time or to take multiple small breaks?

是長時間中斷工作好，還是多次小休好？

In my opinion, I think to take many multiple breaks because it doesn't matter how long you're working.

在我看來，我認為應該多次休息，因為工作時間長短並不重要。

If you've refreshed yourself and if you have come to your full capacity, mental capacity to work, even if you work in short bursts, that could be more productive.
