😨 Diálogo: Miedo a un Deporte Extremo 🏂🚁

Diego: No sé, Sofía… esto no me parece buena idea.

Sofía: ¿Estás seguro? Vamos, es solo paracaidismo, nada del otro mundo…

Diego: ¡Nada del otro mundo! ¿Estás loca? ¡Vamos a saltar de un avión!

Sofía: Jajaja, lo sé, pero dicen que es una experiencia única.

Diego: Claro, única si sobrevives.

Sofía: ¡Vamos, Diego! Hay instructores, todo es seguro.

Diego: No lo sé… ¿Y si el paracaídas no se abre?

Sofía: Para eso está el paracaídas de emergencia.

Diego: ¿Y si el de emergencia tampoco se abre?

Sofía: Bueno… en ese caso…

Diego: ¡Exacto! Por eso mejor nos quedamos en tierra firme.

Sofía: Ay, Diego, no seas cobarde. ¡Mira a esas personas, todas emocionadas!

Diego: Porque todavía no han saltado.

Sofía: Jajaja, yo voy a hacerlo, aunque esté nerviosa.

Diego: Si tú lo haces… tal vez yo también.

Sofía: ¡Eso es! Venceremos el miedo juntos.

Diego: Está bien… pero si me da un infarto en el aire, será tu culpa.

Sofía: Jajaja, no te preocupes, estarás demasiado ocupado gritando para pensar en eso.

Diego: ¡*********, Sofía! Está bien… ¡vamos a saltar!

みなさん、こんにちは。

5月8日は母の日でしたね。みなさんはお母さんに何かプレゼントをしましたか。
私は、私のお母さんと旦那（だんな）さん（主人・しゅじん））のお母さんにお花をプレゼントしました。母の日のお花はカーネーションが多いですね。きれいに飾（かざ）っているお花は安（やす）くても3000円ぐらいします。でもとてもきれいです。旦那さんのお母さんは、5月8日に私たちの家に遊びに来てくれたので、そのとき渡しました。一緒にケーキも食べましたよ。
私のお母さんには、お花を送りました。喜んでくれたみたいです。
私もお母さんです。子供が二人います。上の子は高校2年生の男の子です。毎日、勉強に追（お）われて大変そうです。下の子は、小学3年生の女の子です。ピアノを一生懸命（いっしょうけんめい）頑張（がんば）っているんですよ。で、母の日、きっと何ももらえないなと思ったので、自分でお花を買いました。
でも、500円のお花です。そして、息子に自分の買って来たお花を見せて「ありがとう。きれいだね」と言いました。息子は、「わかったよ。お金払うよ」と言って、お金を出そうとしてくれました。でも、私は「いいよ、その気持ちだけで」と言ってお金は受け取りませんでした。娘もお花を見ながら、その日は、たくさんお手伝いをしてくれました。
みなさんの母の日は、どんな日でしたか。


※分からない言葉があれば教えてください。
※I am looking forward to hearing from your mother's day. (レッスンで会いましょう！！）

「のぞみ」の日記

母の日

Story = '2000 most common words in English'. 

It was 10am on a cloudy Friday when Bobby was struck by inspiration.  It was a day like any other. Bobby was sitting on his bed, curled up in a ball and Afsane was nearby reading a new book.

Bobby was deep in thought. His eyes were closed but his mind was active. His little tail was wagging softly. Occasionally he got up, turned around and sat back down again. This was part of his creative process. 

Then Bobby’s eyes shot open. “Yes! That’s it! I’ll… I’ll…” Then he rested his head again on his paws.  “No… it’s gone.” 

Asfane turned her attention back to her book and turned the page. The book was called, How to Live with An Extraordinary Dog. She wanted to better understand Bobby’s gift.

“You’ve done so many projects,” said Afsane. “Why don’t you revisit an old idea and explore it from a different viewpoint?” 

All over Bobby’s room were his photographs. They were all in special frames. He had taken photos of almost everything: parks, sports, markets, transportation, roads—whatever Bobby saw, he snapped a photo. But he didn’t know what to do for his next photography project. 

Bobby needed to refresh his mind. He jumped off the bed and walked over to his food area. On the wall in front of his red drinking bowl was a picture of his previous drinking bowl, a blue one. 

“I’m looking for a special subject, Afsane,” said Bobby after drinking some water. “Something which speaks to my soul. Something which lifts my spirits.” 

Afsane shrugged her shoulders and put down her book. “That sounds very serious, Bobby. Why don’t you just take a photo of… oh, I don’t know, that.” 

Afsane pointed to the open window. 

Bobby felt curious, so he jumped up and looked out the window. He didn’t see much. He watched the traffic and the dark clouds. But then, something caught his eye. 

Bobby barked and howled! “That’s it! That’s it!”

“See, I told you. There’s nothing boring about windows,” said Afsane.

“No. There! Children!”

““My Success Story” Confidence Building Exercise. Episode 401.

For my students – entrepreneurs and C-level managers – a lack of confidence isn’t solely about grammar; it’s often rooted in perception and the perceived risks associated with speaking English.

When I talk about risk, I’m referring to the fear of making mistakes, the fear of being judged, the fear of rejection, or of being looked down upon. Does that resonate with your experience?

If so, keep reading, I understand where you’re coming from.

Miscommunication can be particularly challenging for high achievers. The fear of failing to secure a deal, of giving the wrong impression, or of appearing incompetent – these are common thought patterns for many language learners.

But you are not like that. You’ve had past successes, you have victories, you’ve achieved significant heights before, correct?

Then why do you allow these destructive thoughts to take hold and undermine your confidence each day?

Ultimately, you are responsible for both your successes and your setbacks.

Now, let’s move into the exercise. My voice will be calm and soothing, guiding you towards a more relaxed, ‘alpha-level’ state.

From this state, you will be able to re-evaluate your situation from a new perspective, and more importantly… enjoy the process!

I look forward to seeing you in my 1-1 VIP coaching classes.

To Your Success, Anatoly”
