Ellieの嘰里咕嚕

空屋？凶屋？

My client Sara joined our meeting very stressed out; frustration etched on her face. Her new team floundered, lacking direction and motivation. Public speaking made her uncomfortable and really nervous. It was an area she was struggling in. I saw an opportunity. Habit stacking, I suggested, could be the key. Small, daily wins would build confidence. Each morning, Sara would journal her goals, followed by 10 minutes reading a leadership book. During her commute she would listen to leadership podcasts.

At work, the transformation began. Meetings now started with clear objectives and agendas, setting the stage for practicing engaging techniques – eye contact, vocal variety – we had discussed. Each week, a late evening mimicked future challenges as we roleplayed difficult conversations. Between meetings, personalized notes praising contributions or progress toward goals landed in team members' inboxes.

A month in, the shift was undeniable. Projects progressed  efficiently through completion, and surveys reflected a happier, more motivated team. Motivated by her success, Sara, once terrified of public speaking, volunteered for an industry conference presentation. Daily clear communication, bolstered by these additional habits, had woven a tapestry of leadership. Sara's transformation, fueled by consistent improvement, was a testament to the power of habit stacking.

人（ひと）をさそうとき

Hey, how are you? I hope you are well. I'm Milo Spanish, a Spanish tutor at italki, and today we're going to talk about some interesting words in Spanish that sometimes confuse those who are learning the language.

1. Madrugar: Esta palabra no tiene equivalente directo en inglés. "Madrugar" significa levantarse temprano, especialmente antes de lo habitual. En algunas culturas, madrugar es una costumbre para aprovechar más el día. Por ejemplo, "Hoy tuve que madrugar para llegar a tiempo al trabajo."

2. Pena ajena: Esta expresión se refiere a la vergüenza que sentimos al ver a otra persona en una situación incómoda o embarazosa. No se trata de nuestra vergüenza, sino de sentirla por otro. En inglés sería algo similar a "secondhand embarrassment". Ejemplo: "Me dio mucha pena ajena ver cómo olvidó su discurso."

3. Empalagar: "Empalagar" significa sentir cansancio o hartazgo debido a algo que hemos consumido o experimentado en exceso. Puede aplicarse a comida, como cuando hemos comido tanto dulce que ya no queremos más. "Este postre está delicioso, pero después de dos porciones, me empalagué."

4. Desvelarse: Este verbo es usado cuando alguien no puede dormir o se queda despierto hasta tarde, generalmente por alguna preocupación o actividad. "Me desvelé estudiando para el examen y ahora estoy muy cansado."
 
5. Friolento: Se usa para describir a alguien que es muy sensible al frío. Una persona friolenta siempre tiene frío, incluso en temperaturas moderadas. "Soy muy friolento, necesito una chaqueta incluso en primavera."
