Maybe you've heard me say confidence is a choice.

也許你聽我說過，自信是一種選擇。

頻率副詞

But what does that really mean, especially for your English?

但這到底是什麼意思呢？尤其是對你的英文學習。

Because, yes, of course, confidence can be a feeling.

因為，沒錯，當然，自信可以是一種感覺。

I'm sure you've had moments when you felt confident, like sharing your expertise at work, maybe making a tough decision, or chatting with neighbors and friends at a party.

我相信你一定有過感覺自信的時刻，像是分享你在工作上的專業知識，也許做出一個困難的決定，或是和鄰居朋友在派對上哈拉。

We all have moments when we feel like, I've got this.

我們都有那種「我辦得到」的時刻。

But if you are confident, do you then always feel confident?

但如果你有自信，你就會一直感覺有自信嗎？

Like when everything you planned changes?

像是當你所有計畫都改變的時候？

Or when you're giving your first big presentation in English, doing a job interview in English?

或是當你第一次用英文做重要的簡報，用英文面試的時候？

If you feel nervous in those moments, does it mean that you're not confident?

如果你在那些時刻感到緊張，這是不是代表你沒有自信呢？

In those moments, confidence isn't a feeling, it's a decision.

在那些時刻，自信不是一種感覺，而是一個決定。

A decision to rely on what you know to trust the strategies you've built, or recognize where you need the support to grow stronger.

一個決定，去依靠你所知道的，去相信你建立的策略，或者去辨識你需要支持的地方來變得更強。

Next time, I want you to write this next thought down.

下次，我希望你把接下來這個想法寫下來。

Confidence is the choice you make, the action you take, no matter how you feel in the moment.

自信是你做的選擇，是你採取的行動，不管你當下感覺如何。

And that's the skill we're going to figure out how to build today for your English to start.

這就是我們今天要一起學會如何培養的技能，讓你的英文開始。

I want to dig into this a little further.

English Confidence is not always about feeling calm, ready, or sure of yourself.

英文的自信不總是關於感覺平靜、準備好或對自己有把握。

In fact, if you wait to feel 100% confident before you speak, you might be waiting for a very long time.

事實上，如果你等到感覺百分之百有自信才開口，你可能會等很久。

Again, real confidence isn't about how you feel in the moment.

再次強調，真正的自信不在於你當下的感覺。

It's about what you do, especially when you feel uncertain.

這關乎於你的行動，尤其是在你感到不確定時。

It's the action you take when your heart is pounding.

這是在你心跳加速時所採取的行動。

It's the strategy you use to speak when your anxiety makes your brain want to freeze.

這是在你的焦慮讓你大腦想當機時，你用來開口的策略。

It's the moment when you try, even if it's messy or scary.

這是在你嘗試的時候，即使過程有點混亂或可怕。

Now, of course, that doesn't mean that you just ignore your nerves.

當然，這不是說你完全忽略你的緊張感。

這代表你不會讓它們當家作主。

When I talk about English fluency with my students, I say that it's about speaking in a way that is clear and smooth, with you in control.

當我跟我的學生談論英文的流暢度時，我說那是在你掌控之下，以清晰流暢的方式說話。

你擁有控制權，而不是你的焦慮。

The truth is, confidence is built on evidence, not just some belief or positive thinking.

事實上，自信是建立在證據上的，而不僅僅是一種信念或積極思考。

It's the evidence you get when you've practiced, when you've shown up for yourself, when you've and for your goals consistently, or when you've recovered after a hard or awkward conversation.

這就是你練習時、你為自己出現時、你為了目標持續努力時，或是你在一次艱難或尷尬的對話後恢復時所獲得的證據。

What's one moment in the past month when you took action even Though you felt nervous, that's what confidence looks like.

過去一個月裡，有沒有一個時刻，即使你感到緊張，你還是採取了行動？這就是自信的樣子。

Now, to keep that confidence going, I want to challenge you to rethink nervousness.

現在，為了讓這種自信持續下去，我想挑戰你重新思考緊張感。

Instead of thinking that nerves mean something is wrong, I want you to try this.

與其認為緊張意味著有什麼不對勁，我希望你試試看這個。

Feeling nervous doesn't mean that I'm unprepared.

感到緊張並不代表我沒有準備好。

It doesn't mean that I'm weak or that I've failed.

這不代表我很軟弱，或者我失敗了。

And it definitely doesn't mean I'm not confident.

而且這絕對不代表我沒有自信。

緊張感代表你是有血有肉的人。

And when it shows up, it usually means that this moment matters, like a presentation at work, a conversation with someone important, or an interview for a job you really want.

當它出現的時候，通常代表這個時刻很重要，像是工作上的簡報、和重要的人對話，或是你非常想要的這份工作的面試。

那些時刻你的緊張感就是數據。

They're a signal saying, hey, pay attention.

它們是一個訊號，告訴你，嘿，請注意。

這是一個值得你好好準備的挑戰。

But here's the mistake we often make, myself included.

但我們常犯的錯誤是，我自己也一樣。

We think that we have to get rid of all of our nerves before we can perform.

我們認為，在表現之前，我們必須把所有的緊張感都消除掉。

But confident speakers don't wait for comfort.

但有自信的講者不會等到覺得舒服才開始。

And then they prepare with intention, instead of shutting down or giving up.

然後他們會帶著意圖去準備，而不是關閉自己或放棄。

So before we move on today, I want you to take a moment and focus on this.

所以在我們繼續今天的內容之前，我希望你花點時間專注在這上面。

Confidence isn't the absence of nervousness.

It's the ability to read your nerves and respond with a plan.

而是有能力讀懂你的緊張感，並帶著計畫去回應。

So why do I still freeze when I have to speak?

那為什麼我開口說的時候，還是會卡住？

There are usually two reasons, and it's important to know which one you're dealing with.

通常有兩個原因，而知道你遇到的是哪一種原因，是很重要的。

Reason number one is it's a pressure problem.

But when the moment comes, you feel rushed.

但到了關鍵時刻，你就會覺得很趕。

You may be afraid of judgment, so your brain locks up.

你可能會怕被評判，所以大腦就當機了。

And it needs a different kind of practice.

You have to learn how to function under stress, not just when you're comfortable and alone.

你必須學會在壓力下運作，而不只是在你覺得自在、一個人的時候。

We're going to talk more about that in a moment.

Sometimes the nerves you have are pointing to something different.

有時候你感到緊張，其實是指出別的問題。

The fact that you haven't practiced enough yet.

Maybe you just haven't had the opportunity.

Or maybe you've practiced passively with reading, listening and reviewing, but you haven't used what you've learned.

或者你只是被動練習，像是閱讀、聽力、複習，但你沒有實際運用學到的東西。

You haven't used the language in real time, where mistakes happen.

你沒有即時運用語言，而錯誤就在那裡發生。

And that matters, because confidence without preparation, that's not confidence.

這很重要，因為沒有準備的自信，那不算自信。

when something is important to me, I want to minimize my risks I want to prepare with intention.

當某件事對我很重要時，我想要盡量降低風險，我想要有目的地去準備。

But preparation without practicing under pressure doesn't transfer to real life.

但沒有在壓力下練習的準備，是無法轉移到真實生活的。

If you don't prepare for real life situations, you can't use what you know when it counts.

如果你沒有為真實生活的情境做準備，當關鍵時刻來臨時，你就無法運用你所知道的。

You have to practice in situations that increase the anxiety just a little bit.

你必須在會稍微增加焦慮的情境下練習。

Situations that help you learn to be in control, step by step.

那些能幫助你一步一步學會掌控的情境。

So pause for a moment and ask yourself, am I freezing because I'm overwhelmed and feeling pressured in the moment, or because I haven't really trained for this kind of moment?

所以請暫停一下，問問自己，我之所以卡住，是因為當下我感到不知所措和壓力太大，還是因為我沒有真正為這種時刻訓練過？

This question isn't about judging yourself or feeling bad.

這個問題不是要你評判自己或感到難過。

It's about clarity, because clarity gives you a way to move forward.

這是關於釐清，因為釐清能讓你找到前進的方向。

I want to briefly revisit this truth that we keep talking about.

我想簡單重述一下我們一直在談論的這個事實。

Confidence isn't something that you're born with.

And it's not something that you just decide to have one day.

也不是你某天突然就決定要有的。

It's something you build, just like a skill.

它是可以培養的，就像培養技能一樣。

Practice with purpose, not just repetition.

有目標地練習，而不只是重複。

It builds your memory and the ability to do something automatically.

它能幫助你記憶，並能自動化地完成某件事。
