La Universidad de Cambridge decidió investigar la relación entre personalidad y gustos musicales para determinar qué dicen de nosotros nuestras listas de reproducción en Spotify y Apple Music. De esta manera, podemos aprender mucho de las personas incluso antes de conocerlas.

Qué dice de ti la música que escuchas, según la ciencia

Давайте восклицать

Давайте восклицать, друг другом восхищаться.
Высокопарных слов не стоит опасаться.
Давайте говорить друг другу комплименты —
ведь это все любви счастливые моменты.
Давайте горевать и плакать откровенно
то вместе, то поврозь, а то попеременно.
Не нужно придавать значения злословью —
поскольку грусть всегда соседствует с любовью.
Давайте понимать друг друга с полуслова,
чтоб, ошибившись раз, не ошибиться снова.
Давайте жить, во всем друг другу потакая, —
тем более что жизнь короткая такая.

Нескучные истории - Not boring stories

Булат Окуджава. "Давайте восклицать"

Forget the fancy suits and practiced answers.  Job interviews are about why, not what.  Why are you here? Why should we care?  The truth is, the scripted responses you rehearse might not resonate.  But what if you could tap into your authentic self, the one brimming with passion and ideas?  That's the power of mastering impromptu speaking.

Think of an interview not as an interrogation, but a conversation fueled by purpose.  Impromptu speaking allows you to sound natural and convincing.  It lets you ditch the script and dive straight into the wellspring of your "Why."  The interviewer throws a curveball question?  No problem.  You can think on your feet,  demonstrating your ability to adapt and solve problems –  essential skills in today's ever-changing workplace.

Imagine being asked about a weakness.  A scripted response sounds robotic.  But with impromptu fluency, you can talk about a past challenge, how you learned from it, and how that experience fuels your drive to succeed.  It's a story, not a statistic.  Stories connect.  They show your human side, your ability to overcome obstacles – all qualities that make you a compelling candidate. 

Confidence is another perk.  When you can speak confidently and articulately without a script, you project a powerful presence.  It shows you believe in yourself and your ideas –  the kind of person who inspires trust and gets things done.  So, ditch the memorization and embrace the impromptu.  It's not about having all the answers, but about the passion and purpose behind them.  That's the "Why" that will land you the job.

Don't wait for the interview to start honing your impromptu skills.  Start conversations with friends, family, or even strangers.  Challenge yourself to think on your feet and express yourself clearly.  Record yourself and watch it back.  Sign up for a session and we can focus on improving your impromptu speaking ability to make sure you get hired!

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの30回目です。先週はアップロードする時間がありませんでした。少し忙しかったです。ついに30回です。前回お話しした、私がホストを務めるウェビナーの詳細が決まりました。日本時間で、6月20日の午前10時から10時45分までです。日本人の先生に向けた内容なので、スライドも会話も全て日本語です。興味のある人は、ぜひ参加してみてください。配信後はYoutubeで公開される予定なので、ライブじゃなくても別の日に見ることができます。

Hello. This is my podcast episode 30. I didn't have time to upload it last week. I was a bit busy. Finally, it's the 30th episode. The details of the webinar I told you about last time, which I will be hosting, have been finalised. It will be on 20 June from 10am to 10:45am Japan time. It is aimed at Japanese teachers, so all slides and conversations will be in Japanese. If you are interested, you are welcome to attend. It will be available on Youtube after the delivery, so you can watch it on another day other than on-air day.

今月でPatreonのアカウントを閉鎖することにしました。本当は続けたかったのですが、私生活も仕事も忙しくなってきたので、更新に十分な時間が取れません。ふりがなを表示するChromeのエクステンションを生徒さんに教えてもらったので、今後はウェブサイトでふりがなが見られるようにしたいと思います。いままでサポートしてくださった皆さん、本当にありがとうございました。

I have decided to close my Patreon account this month. I really wanted to continue, but my personal and professional life has become so busy that I don't have enough time to update it. I have learned from my students about a Chrome extension that displays furigana, so I hope to be able to see furigana on the website in the future. Thank you very much to everyone who has supported me until now.

30回なので、このポッドキャストを作ってきた思い出を振り返りたいと思います。このポッドキャストは、生徒さんのアイデアで始まりました。その時の私はまだコンデンサーマイクとオーディオインターフェイスを持っていなくて、ヘッドセットのマイクで録音していました。音質がすごく悪かったです。音質が悪いエピソード１〜４は、まだPatreonで聞くことができます。
