但也因為是相對不正式的口語說法，英文學習者很難在教科書或文章裡看到生活中常講的片語動詞，

導致常常有即使每個字都懂，卻還是不曉得意思的情況。

之後「賴床五分鐘」的小單元會推出一系列實用片語動詞的介紹，

一起學習口語英文，不再聽得霧煞煞！

✏️聽完後也到IG, FB上留言你用這1-3個片語動詞的造句喔！✏️

💪主動使用是增加active vocabulary最好的方法！

在這一集裡，我用英文說明第五集中最重要的五步驟思考架構（The 5-step Framework），以及怎麼透過增加正向感受來養成新習慣！

Script 講稿：

哈囉哈囉，我是Sheng-Pei。

In this episode I‘m going to recap Episode 5 in English. I’ll be mainly talking about “The 5-step Framework”. If you want to read the script, you can find it in the show note.

I’m doing this because I’ve been thinking about how to bring more value to this podcast. To me, It’s a little bit weird if I only speak Mandarin in this podcast and claim that I am helping people learn English. Of course sharing learning strategies in Mandarin helps, but getting more exposure to English is also crucial for English learners. This is why I want to find ways to provide more English content in this podcast. It can be a short vocabulary teaching session, or the English summary of the weekly episode like this one.

OK, let’s get to it.

[ Intro: “Mind My English with Sheng-Pei" is a podcast that brings positive psychology into English language learning. Having a healthy mindset is the key to fluency! Join me in discovering how your English learning journey can also be a process of growth and self-empowerment. ]

Hi, there! How are you doing today? This is the English summary of “The 5-step Framework”. If you have listened to Episode 5, you probably know the framework pretty well already.

“The 5-step Framework” first starts with Circumstance, then Thought, Feeling, Action, and Result.

The circumstance is the reality; it’s the situation that we are in. From there, our brain generates thoughts to interpret the circumstances. Then, our thoughts create our feelings, our feelings drive our actions and our actions get us the results.

One thing to be noticed is that the circumstance is the external reality that we can not control. No one can change it, and no one can control anything that happens outside of us. It might be a little sad to know that we are not in control of the circumstances. But it’s alright, because the rest of the 4 elements in the framework are in our total control.

As human beings, our brain is the most miraculous tool that we have. Our brain is able to generate any conscious thoughts if we direct it. And since thoughts are what create feelings, our ability to generate thoughts means we have the ability to create feelings for ourselves. We can then use these feelings to fuel our actions and get our results.

In Episode five, I implemented this 5-step Framework to building habits. I shared my story about how I’ve learned to build a habit by associating more positive feelings with it. I was a very goal-oriented person. I used to use goals to drive my actions and I didn’t care about my feelings. At that time, I thought having determination is forcing myself to do things that I didn’t like. But forcing myself to work against my feelings was extremely frustrating. That’s why I had failed to build a good habit. Ignoring my feelings was not healthy either. There were times that I was anxious, stressful and not happy even if I had achieved my goal.

Now I’ve learned to work the other way around. I still set goals like I want to exercise more or I want to improve my English. But I don’t start from changing my actions right away. I start the work from my mind. I start from directing my thoughts. I try to think in a way that can create more positive feelings whenever I’m exercising or speaking English. For example, I used to see mistakes in English as embarrassments. But now I see them as opportunities to grow. When I make a mistake or and get stuck during a conversation, I would just look it up later and learn from it. I also truly appreciate the effort that I put in English and consider myself courageous in communicating in my non-native language. When I was able to feel great about English, I found myself spending more and more time learning English just to experience the positive feelings. I don’t have to force myself anymore.

Feeling is the fuel of our action. When you feel great while doing something, it’s so much easier for you to do the same thing over and over again. Using positive feelings to motivate myself is force more effective than forcing myself. And the best of all, I get to enjoy the process.

So what do you think? Does this framework make sense to you? Come to my Facebook group or Instagram and let me know the habit that you want to build this year.

[ Outro: This is your “Recap in English” episode. I hope you enjoyed it. and if you like the podcast, then consider subscribing to the podcast. If you feel my content is helpful, you can even rate and review the podcast. and You can find me @sp.mindmyenglish on Instagram where you can DM me and ask all the questions about English or building a healthy mindset. ]

以前的我常常在新年前幾天，奮發地想養成好習慣，卻都因為缺乏按表操課的紀律跟意志力，不到一個禮拜就打回原形．．．

但是難道養成習慣只能依靠自制力跟意志力嗎？

不是這樣的！！！如果要養成一個習慣，只要讓自己喜歡上做那件事就可以了！

在這一集裡面，我會分享我是怎麼透過同一個架構，讓自己喜歡做以前討厭的事，自然而然地養成運動跟學英文的習慣！

【Reinvent Your Life】是討論要怎麼培養正向心態、主動經營人生的系列節目。我會帶你一步一步了解、接納自己，透過想法跟情緒，去讓你實際採取行動，打造你想過的生活。

你覺得英文發音簡單還是難？

你有沒有想過，同樣是a這個字母，在cat, father, about三個字的發音竟然完全不同？

如果你覺得英文發音很難，

這 完 全 不 是 你 的 錯 ！

在這一集裡面，我會解釋英文發音的複雜之處，

也帶大家練習/æ/ (A as in b”a”d) 和 **/ɛ/ **(E as in b”e”d)兩個母音。

希望大家別跟我以前一樣，因為不會發 /æ/ ，把grass念得像grace而被誤會啦！

⬇️ 到FB群組上傳你練習/æ/ 和 /ɛ/的影片⬇️　我會針對你的發音給回饋喔！
