Ep8 На нет и суда нет (how to handle a rejection)

Habit stacking is a technique where you link a new habit or task to an existing one so it's easier to form. 

To prepare for an interview, start small by reviewing your resume after breakfast each day.

Then, build on that by following it with researching common interview questions while you commute. 

Next, add practicing answers aloud in your car or on a walk. 

Gradually increase difficulty by recording mock interviews on your phone and reviewing where you can improve. 

Soon, your routine will be: 

breakfast > resume review > research questions > practice answers > mock interview. 

Then, take it a step further. After work, fit in calling contacts for referrals during your regular exercise. 

Follow exercise with reviewing your networking and researching the company more in-depth. 
Right before bed, update your notes so it's fresh in your mind. 

Within a few weeks, all these small, connected habits will have you fully prepared without much effort since it's just an extension of your daily routine. 

Habit stacking makes interview prep seamless and ensures you put your best foot forward on the big day!

It is recommended that you study in the following ways:
Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary)
Step 2: Read the text to find out words you didn't get, then look up the dictionary. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can without looking at the text.
Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
上期我们聊了什么人适合吃辣，什么人不适合吃辣。那今天我们继续来聊一聊吃辣的时候要注意什么。
主持人：所以最后左医生能不能给我们总结一下，您这有没有比如说几条建议，比如吃辣的一些原则，帮助大家更好地吃辣，更科学更安全地吃辣？
左医生：那我们辣椒呢，又分干辣椒和鲜辣椒。那鲜辣椒的话当成蔬菜吃我觉得还是不错的，干辣椒呢，您当成调味品来吃，它里面的辣椒素都有的，都有一定的作用啊，包括对我们减肥啊促进代谢、祛湿都有一定的作用，你只要掌握好度就好。还有就是一种泡辣椒。泡辣椒的话能够去腥提鲜，像我们四川的一些鱼香肉丝啊，炒一些鸭肠啊那种下水都会用到泡辣椒，因为它提鲜。再一个呢，它呢有一定的益生菌，对调节肠道有一定的好处。但是它腌制的话，随着腌制时间的增加营养素会有所降低，还有一个盐分太高，那有高血压的人群的话，这种腌辣椒泡辣椒，真的是要少吃啊，真的是要少吃。还有我们吃辣椒的时候有技巧的，因为吃辣椒你觉得特别辣，我怎么来缓解呢？我也看过很多的报道包括我自己就试过，你这时候喝点茶不管用啊，你吃块冰块含块冰也不管用，那怎么办呢？像我们四川吃麻辣火锅的时候标配是什么呢？豆奶，尤其是凉的豆奶，或者是北方如果没有这种的话，你可以喝点冰的牛奶呀或者冰淇淋啊等等，或者是您家有点稀饭放凉了，您放在那儿，它其实对我们缓解这个辣都有一定的益处。
主持人：好，那再次谢谢左医生。
你喜欢吃哪种辣椒呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

吃辣的时候要注意什么？ What should we pay attention to when eating spicy food? （Advanced level）

As a communication coach, I witness the transformative power of preparation in business communication.  Winging it might work occasionally, but for consistent success, pre-communication planning is your secret weapon.  Here are my top 6  tips to ensure you dominate your next meeting, presentation, or email exchange:

1. Know Your Audience:  This isn't a cliche; it's the foundation.  Research your audience's background, interests, and pain points.  Tailor your language and message to resonate with them.  Imagine explaining your idea to a friend – that level of clarity and connection is what you're aiming for.

2. Define Your Purpose:  What is the single most important takeaway you want your audience to have?  Is it to inform, persuade, or simply update?  Having a clear purpose keeps your message focused and avoids information overload.

3. Craft a Compelling Message:  Less is more.  Eliminate jargon and redundancy.  Structure your message with a clear beginning, middle, and end.  Practice your delivery beforehand, paying attention to pacing, tone, and body language.

4. Anticipate Roadblocks:  Forewarned is forearmed.  Think of potential objections or questions your audience might have.  Prepare clear, concise responses that address these concerns head-on.  This demonstrates confidence and proactive problem-solving.

5. Choose Your Weapon Wisely:  Not all communication channels are created equal.  Consider the purpose and audience when selecting your method.  A complex proposal might be best delivered as a written document, while a team update could thrive on a video call.

6. Embrace Technology:  Utilize presentation tools effectively.  Visuals can significantly enhance understanding and retention of your message.  However, avoid information overload –  keep slides clean and focused on supporting your core points.
