SWE 157 Americas Best Rapper - Kendrick Lamar

안녕하세요! 
오늘은 한국에서 많이 쓰이는 단어, [갓생]에 대해 이야기해 보려고 해요. 혹시 들어본 적 있으신가요? 
갓생은 단순히 유행어가 아니라, 한국의 문화와 삶의 가치를 담고 있는 단어예요. 이와 관련된 재미있는 표현들도 함께 소개해 드릴게요!

갓생 (God-Life)
갓생은 영어 God와 한국어 '생'의 조합이에요. '생'은 삶을 의미하죠. 그래서 갓생은 생산적이고, 규칙적이며, 목표를 달성하는 "신적인 삶"을 뜻해요. 예를 들어, 매일 아침 일찍 일어나 운동하고, 공부하고, 계획한 일을 모두 이루는 사람을 보면 "정말 갓생 산다!"라고 말할 수 있어요.

"나는 이번 주도 갓생 살기로 결심했어."
I've decided to live a productive life again this week."
한국 사회는 자기계발과 성실함을 중요하게 생각하는데, 갓생이라는 단어가 그런 문화를 잘 보여주고 있죠.

갓반인 (Ordinary Person)
그런가 하면, 갓반인이라는 단어도 있어요. 이것은 "갓"과 "일반인"의 조합인데요, 일반인은 평범한 사람을 뜻해요. 주로 덕후, 즉 팬덤에 푹 빠진 사람들이 자신과는 다른 평범한 사람들을 표현할 때 사용해요.

"나는 덕후로 살다 보니 갓반인이 너무 부럽다."
"As a passionate enthusiast, I sometimes envy ordinary people."
이 표현은 덕후들 사이에서 자조적이면서도 유머러스하게 사용된답니다.

머글 (Muggle)
머글은 Harry Potter에서 온 단어로, 팬덤이나 특정 취미와 관계없는 사람을 뜻해요. K-pop 팬들이 자주 사용하는 표현이기도 해요.

"내 친구는 완전 머글이라 내가 덕질하는 걸 이해 못 해."
"My friend is a total muggle, so they don’t get my fan obsession."

현생 (Real Life)
마지막으로, 현생은 현실 생활의 줄임말이에요. 현실 세계의 책임이나 일 때문에 취미나 팬 활동에 집중할 수 없을 때 주로 쓰이죠.

"요즘 현생이 너무 바빠서 덕질을 못 하고 있어."
"I'm too busy with real life these days to indulge in my fandom."
이렇게 다양한 표현들이 한국의 대중문화와 일상 속에서 쓰이고 있어요. 여러분은 지금 갓생을 살고 계신가요? 아니면 현생 때문에 바쁜가요?

오늘 팟캐스트를 들으신 후, 꼭 이 단어들을 한 번 사용해 보세요! 다음 시간에는 또 다른 재미있는 한국어 표현을 들고 올게요. 감사합니다!

Job Interview / An Important Event Preparation - How To Boost Your Confidence and Productivity?


How many times have you felt insecure about yourself? A lack of confidence often can’t be seen from the outside, but it can create a mental burden that is hard to carry. 

To lift this weight off your shoulders and become more confident, you must deal with what’s on your mind and learn how to accept yourself.


One way to achieve this is to use positive affirmations for confidence.

Affirmations are short, positive statements that reinforce your beliefs or combat negative feelings. They can be spoken aloud or printed on cards to read when you need a boost. There are a lot of ways to use them, and it ultimately depends on your individual needs.

Why Affirmations Are Important for Confidence

People tend to look at themselves negatively. Unfortunately, many people feel like they aren’t good enough or like they can’t do something they’ve wanted to do for a long time. This isn’t just a problem for children and teenagers; lack of confidence can start early and continue through adulthood.

Identifying a lack of confidence is often challenging because it’s typically not something you can see from the outside. In most cases, it feels like a crippling weight that prevents your true personality from showing.

If that burden becomes too heavy, the lack of confidence can trigger some physical issues. Anxiety, shortness of breath, stress, sweating, and other symptoms can often be traced back to feelings of insecurity.

Listen to the podcast to be inspired to use positive affirmations daily. It helps people all over the world to feel more confident, at ease with themselves, to feel excited about life...

If you are preparing for an important meeting that will be held in English or fear of speaking to your partners / colleagues / clients - book a class with me so we can find practical soutions now.

To Your Success,
Anatoly
